From the moment this place opened it has been AWFUL in terms of the service. Went there last night with 6 other people and they changed waitresses on us 3 times! When I asked why the first waitress left, the last waitress told us she had to get home to her kids and then when I went inside to use the restroom I saw her sitting at the bar with her other waitress friends! The service is terrible, the food is over priced and when we left there we had been waiting for almost 1 hour 45 minutes for everything! The first waitress forgot my friends food but because she "left" the last waitress said since it wasnt her fault and she fixed it she couldnt give a discount!!! I WILL NEVER EAT OR DRINK THERE AGAIN!!! Go to 4th Street just down the block, the servers actually remember that you placed an order there!

The inventive and unusual food cant be beat as far as pub food goes. To get a feel for their food, try the appetizer sampler, which includes buffalo blue cheese sticks, onion rings, jalapeno poppers, and fried mac & cheese. The torch burger is also something to try. The music is good, the atmosphere is wonderful, the cigar room really sets them apart, and the beer selection is moderately good. The one thing they could improve on is service - they normally only have one or two servers and theyre running around so fast they cant catch a breath. Weve been there several times and have always had long waits to order and to get our check - though the food seems to come out immediately. All in all, one of my favorite places in Columbus.

Watch your credit card statement. Added an unauthorized tip. Talked to the manager and was told they didnt have my receipt. So I asked, "how did a tip get added?" She did not have an answer and would have to call back. Called back and said one of bartenders magically still had receipt the day I called (3 weeks after I was there), which showed the correct tip. Interesting...

Bad, bad service. Average food. Mediocre beer selection. Ive been going for a year now because there arent many options in town. It has the location and space to be great but lacks the competence. Wait staff, bartender, cooks, management... they all have no idea what theyre doing. Consistently the worst service in Columbus guaranteed.

Our waitress was so inattentive! I had to chase her down for our drink refills after I had already asked for a refill, she did the same thing when I asked for the box after waiting several minutes, I had to approach the bar myself to get the to-go box. Very disappointed in the service, the food was good though.

This is a relative rating based on personal preferences. The people at the Garage are great, but I like the micro brew selection at the Columbus Bar more and the food at 4th St. more. Since there are a limited number of options in Columbus, The Garage gets bumped for me. The Garage does do karaoke best though.

First impressions are not always the best. Seems to be a popular place for the locals. Special of the evening was Buffalo Shrimp Tacos. I was very disappointed. Beer was cold and the margarita was good. Probably should have gone to Buffalo Wild Wings. Sorry..........

Good variety of drinks and beers, bartenders are very funny and the food is delicious, I am not a fan of karaoke but this one is fun, there always a very good singer in the audience willing to give a show and get other costumers going, very friendly environment.

I have gone here around 5 times. The food is above average. The service is average. The beer selection is average. I keep going back because in Columbus, even though it is an average place for food, it is probably in the top 20% of good restaurants.

I cant say Ive had anything there I didnt like. Ive even had the veggi burger, and I think you should too. Live entertainment a few times a week, genuinely cheerful staff, great food selection, and convenient location close to everything downtown.

$16 for lukewarm fries and an over cooked burger pretty much sums this place up. Tried it more then once, and the results were consistent. Pass on this one - 4th street 2 blocks down the road is MUCH better. Service was terrible as well.

Thursday nights are fun here. Good drink specials and some entertainment, pretty good for Columbus. Service blows....but there has been improvement in the past 6 months. Food isnt bad, worth ordering, and value is average.

The food was so-so, the beer selection wasnt great, and the service was pretty slow. Nothing about it jumped out and made me want to come back. Go for the trivia on Tuesdays; theres not much of a reason to go otherwise.

Best drinks in Columbus down town Chef Troy has hell of menu Great food .Duck wings out of this world #1 better than any chicken wings youve eaten." WOW " Mike best bartender on 4th street drinks are true drinks quality.

Overall good experience. Service is average. Dry run Cajun wings, ceasar salad plus salmon that is blackened on a salad all were very good. They have live music which is an added plus. Nice part of town.

Ive been going to the Garage for a couple of years now. The food is mediocre, the drink prices are about average, but the location and cleanliness is very good. Service isnt great. Entertainment always

Was given wrong portion size, waitress was less than professional. It took forever to get my bill and was late getting back to work. I wont waste my money going back.

Went late at night for a quick drink. The atmosphere was fun and very social and a band was setting up (Friday night). Seems like a good local place to hang out.

Was hungry, so I stopped in for a bite. The service was amazing, I didnt wait long on my food, and it was great! I recommend stopping in if you have the time.

This is the best place in Columbus. Good is excellent! Service is great . Clean all the time even the bathrooms. If you havent been here make it a point.

Steven Montross

Service at the bar was slower than it should have been. Bartender would be reactive instead of proactive. Otherwise the burger was fantastic.

Cathy Andry

Friendly bartenders and staff. Always a good band playing.. Tonight it was Seldom Surreal.. Awesome!!! The place for a relaxing evening.

Paul Collins

The food and drinks were really great. Great atmosphere. However Im rather upset they charged me a dollar fifty for soda water.

Jake Atkins

I went in there for karaoke and it was the best time Ive ever had. The food is amazing the staff are cute, playful, and fun.

Chad Sowash

Consistent pub food in tandem with good beers on tap. One of the main spots in Columbus to stop and have beers with friends.

Bartender was good when you got his attention. Bartop filled with food. Never wiped off the entire time I was there.
