    I had my retirement party here because my friends could get happy hour prices on a Friday. Free wifi with no password. Full bar, great beer selection, kitchen, fair prices, ample bar and table seating, pool table, patio on High St. good background music.

    This place feels so authentic and unpolished, it really makes for a perfect night in a bar with some friends! Despite a few of my favourite beers not being available when I visited and a shady-looking staircase to the toilets, the bar is absolutely fantastic and I would return in a heartbeat!

    Right across the street from classics, if you are looking for a smaller bar without nearly as much lighting, and you wish to play ping pong or pool with gold competition then this is the bar for you. Pretty good wings also, free pizza on Monday all night, free chili dogs o Tuesdays! Tell them maceo told U about this bar.

    The High Beck Tavern is a real neighborhood dive bar. It reminds me of the places that were in the OSU campus area before gentrification. As I have said, we enjoy exploring dive bars and visiting the High Beck is always popular. The pizza is delicious, and you can build your own. The BBQ is super, but not out of this world. The BBQ includes both brisket and pulled pork. The BBQ is not cooked with a great deal of seasoning, but there are several sauces for you to try. There are subs, burgers, and chili dogs. We love the BBQ and pizza, which is mostly what we go for. The High Beck is a real dive establishment. Ordering is done at the bar. The prices are low, and the beer is cold. The High Beck is ideal if you are going out with a crew. Everyone will find something to munch on, and no one will mind if you become a little rowdy. Parking is at meters along High Street. So, if you become bored with the Short North, make a trip down High Street with your pals to the High Beck in German Village.

    Received great customer service from Jami. She was super nice and attentive! When something went wrong with our order, the owner Wayne and Jami took initiative to make it right. If you are looking for good food at a reasonable price and excellent customer service, this is your place.

  • 4/5 Chris H. 2 years ago on Google
    This is a cool place to grab a drink after work in the downtown area. But the seating is pretty limited and it's a little disorganized. We weren't really sure how to get food ordered or how it would get to our table. The bartending staff was really friendly but a little overwhelmed when we went on a Thursday at 6pm.

    Drinks are good, bartenders are very personable. The atmosphere is nice, they have a pool table and a ping pong table, which is always fun. I think over all the building is unique.

  • 4/5 Kai L. 2 years ago on Google
    A bit of a dive but they have good food, a nice little patio, and it's usually a fairly chill spot to hang out

  • 2/5 Sabrina B. 1 year ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Honestly love a dive bar, but this place just sucks. The bartender kept pouring us sour mix when we ordered pickle back shots and they only serve one side of the bar. Service is terrible every time. Last time I ordered mozzarella sticks and it was literally just a fried block of cheese… straight up a basket of melted cheese…
