Club 185 – Columbus, OH (German Village)
185 E Livingston Ave, Columbus, OH 43215
I didn’t just visit once. I stuck around — and now they know my order by heart.
Club 185 is one of those places that quietly earns your loyalty. From the laid-back vibe to the dependable food, this spot has made its way into my regular rotation. If you’re looking for a low-key neighborhood bar with high-key flavor, this is it.

️ What to Order
• Beer Cheese Fries ($10.50 regular / $7.50 happy hour)
→ Fries loaded with pot roast, jalapeños, onion, and creamy, sharp cheese sauce. Comfort food stacked up like a meal. Worth planning your whole order around.
• Sliders
→ Pot roast and meatloaf are my go-to. Rich, filling, and no unnecessary frills. Just good food that holds up every time.
• Hot Dogs (Wednesday special – 2 for $7.50)
→ Basic if you leave them plain, but they’re made to be topped — chili, kraut, cheese, etc. Treat them like a build-your-own canvas.
• Pizza
→ Underrated. Customize it however you want — I do pepperoni, sausage, and banana peppers. Crispy-edged, flavorful, and great with an Ace Pineapple cider (on tap for the non-beer drinkers).
• Happy Hour (Mon–Fri, 4–7pm)
→ Small menu, all hits. Quesadillas, shrimp, kettle chips with house onion dip — perfect for sampling or sharing.
• Rotating Daily Specials
→ Fish tacos on Fridays, lasagna on Sundays, shrimp po’ boy (highly underrated). Haven’t tried everything, but I like the variety.

Vibe & Atmosphere
Dim lighting, wood tables, a working payphone, and a bar that knows when to talk and when to leave you be.
Come solo or with friends — both feel natural here. The crowd’s a mix of regulars and newcomers, and the staff makes you feel like you’re supposed to be there.
Price Range
Most menu items fall between $7–$14. Portion sizes are generous for the price, especially during happy hour.
⏱️ Wait Time
Usually seated quickly, even when it’s busy. Food comes out in a reasonable time, and the staff is always moving efficiently.
Seating
Bar seating, booths, and tables. Space can fill up fast, especially after work hours, but there’s usually a seat somewhere.
️ Parking
Street parking only — can be tight during peak hours. Be ready to loop the block once or twice.
♿ Accessibility
Bar-level entry, but limited maneuvering room inside during busy hours. Not ideal for large mobility devices, but workable.
Kid-Friendly?
Technically yes, but this place caters more to adults. Great for after-work drinks, casual date nights, or solo unwinding. Not really geared toward families or young kids.
⸻
Final Word:
Club 185 isn’t flashy. It doesn’t need to be.
What it is — consistent, flavorful, familiar, and the kind of place that remembers your face and your weird slider preferences. That’s reason enough to stay in rotation.
️ Let Jess Tell It — I came for the beer cheese fries and forgot how to leave.

Best burgers in the city! Get the 185 with cheese. Add sweet potato fries, and don’t skip the green beans. Love the old-school neighborhood charm.

Chicken wings ARE THE BEST HERE, good flavors and crispy(not greasy)!
Burgers, simple good burger with fries.
Salad, good!
Chips with house made sour cream, very good!
The restaurant is kind of loud and that’s the vibes here, if you have sensitive ears then be aware.

Fun local bar in downtown Columbus. Full menu, and voted (?) Best smash burger. Bean dip is definitely worth trying and the smash burger did not disappoint. I love the cigarette machine, payphone and photo booth flashback. Thank you Paulina and Abbey for the great service!
