Visiting from Toronto I stumbled upon this place. Lively atmosphere, lots of well placed tvs, attentive bar staff and a solid dj made my Friday night experience one to remember. Thanks guys, all the best.

Stopped in here to take in the Columbus Crew match. Enjoyed the rooftop patio! No food here, but you can order in. Service was friendly and pretty prompt. Only gripe is that they tend to play music WAY too loud. Rooftop patios are for relaxing, not replicating a club atmosphere. Clientele looked college aged, which explains the music volume and selection. I’d come again.

Arissa was the best bartender ever. Told her it was our friends bachelorette and she made sure she felt so celebrated. If you’re in Columbus – GO TO NOVAKS!

Sammy was amazing! She literally took amazing care of me. I honestly came into town not knowing anyone and she talked to me and took great care of me. Best expresso martini ever! If you want a drink, see Sammy!

We needed an overflow venue for a 300+ guest wedding with only six hours’ notice—yes, six hours. I reached out to Nick, the GM at Novak’s, and within minutes he and his team were on it. The bartenders were incredible, security was welcoming, and the DJ even adjusted the music when 100+ gay wedding guests walked in. The team checked in throughout the night to make sure everything was perfect—and it was. This was a wild, last-minute request and Novak’s absolutely crushed it. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you for saving the day!
