Outstanding selection and good beer prices during happy hour. Busy and full of OSU people. Bar food that is better than most. | | jrallen34 (201), Chicago, Illinois | | March 31, 2011
Headed here with some buddies to hit up the Columbus beer scene. Good location in the Short North, a couple tables outside provide some nice people watching. The inside was nice but it’s a weird beer bar place, its way to trendy for me, nice just not what I want for my beer bar...The quality of the beers was really nice, good selection of midwest beers, lots of Michigan, nice to get some Troegs as well. The service was good, both servers offered good suggestions.
A Columbus must for a beer bar. | | chriso (257), London, England | | March 7, 2011
Visited on a Saturday lunchtime in March 2010. A fairly worthwhile, if brief, stop. Happened to be passing and saw a parking space right outside. Two interesting beers I’d not had on tap (including a Columbus Brewing beer that was not on at the brewub and was far superior to what they did have there). Had the two beers. Left. Quite quiet so difficult to get a handle on the atmosphere but easy to see that it could be a hipster joint at more popular drinking timres. A bit too much of a cafe bar feel for my liking. Would drop in again if in town (and in the neighbourhood) because they’ll probably have stuff I wouldn’t get elsewhere. | | MbpBugeye (22), Columbus, Ohio | | January 12, 2011
Ah, Bodega. Much loved, much revered, and much stigmatized Bodega.
This is a place that all Columbus beer geeks are at least slightly familiarized with. Only the regulars know how to manage visits to the place. First timers are usually scared away by the crowds or the prices.
The happy hours are one hell of a deal. 50% off all taps. The taps are why you would go here anyway.
Be sure not to come on peak bar hopping hours i.e. Saturday at 10pm. The service will get your beer wrong, or they will be out of what you want and the crowds will be so packed, most of them stupid hipsters with silly moustaches.
If you dont see 25 fixed gear bikes parked out front it is safe to enter.
The selection is usually down right awesome. Granted there are some off nights but typically there is at least 2-3 rare, tap only beers worth trying.
Double check your bill before you leave and have 2 or 3 back up choices when you order and everything will be fine. | | sparksjustin (11), Columbus, Ohio | | November 25, 2010
Large draft and bottle selection. Lots of rare stuff to enjoy if you go in on the right day. I recommend going for happy hour as it tends to get mind-numbingly crowded as the night goes on. Food is good and most of the staff are knowledgeable. | | ohemming (10), Columbus, Ohio | | February 9, 2010
The best draft beer selection in Columbus, and a great happy hour. I love going to Bodega for happy hour, if you don’t get there early expect it to be busy. Service can be spotty, and food is descent, all in all a great place for people who like good beer! | | weihenweizen (57), West Virginia | | January 3, 2010
Heard good things in the end this place is just pretentious. Pretty good bottle selection. Quite a few on draft, but nothing great. Atmosphere is not great and service was not good. | | foundersfan (11), Ohio | | December 1, 2009
The beer selection is wonderful! The food was just okay, but man, selection, selection, selection!! I think there is like 50 on tap? | | deadguy (10), Columbus, Ohio | | November 16, 2009
50 tap heads. Great food. Lots of hipsters. Period. | | DragonStout (96), Pickerington, Ohio | | September 27, 2009
Tripped over this place while driving thru campus.I heard about this place so I stopped.The ambiance was nice nothing special.The patio was a great place to drink a beer and watch people.The service was lackluster at best.They seemed a bit bothered but hey they are college kids right?The beer selection was real good with 50 drafts and lots of bottles.The appetizer was decent.I think I would only stop here if I was driving by again but wouldnt seek it out. |
