My husband and I popped into Ohio Beer Garden before our movie last night. I had to fight the urge to go to The Rail, but alas we didn't have a ton of time to wait on food. When we entered we were surprised to find it was a ghost town, with two other people at the bar and one person working. I couldn't believe this place was so dead during happy hour!
We took a seat at the bar and the bartender immediately handed us their beer list and menu. They don't offer a lot of food, just bar snacks and thin crust pizzas. They do have a very extensive beer menu and the prices were excellent. Happy Hour drafts were a little over $4 and canned/bottled beers are always $4. You can't beat those prices! Most of their beers are Ohio breweries. I asked the bartender to recommend a hard cider & he was very familiar with the menu and the beers. He suggested the Rhinegeist Bubbles Rose and it was excellent.
The space would be great for groups. The place truly feels like an indoor beer garden. There are lots of long picnic style tables + patio seating. They also have arcade games and an indoor shuffle board game. How fun!
We ordered the prosciutto & Parmesan thin crust pizza to split. The bartender made the pizza and we were able to watch as it went through an oversized toaster oven. It came out piping hot and devilishly cheesy. Perfect to go with our brew! I loved the thin, crispy crust. A single pizza was perfect for us to split without feeling like we had to roll ourselves out the door. We will definitely be back for happy hour or another pre-movie snack.
