    One of the last surviving Columbus dives. Two pool tables, an arcade cabinet, and plenty of good beer on tap for a very reasonable price. If you live in the area, you're almost guaranteed to run into someone you know, which goes a long way for me personally.

    The St James is a low key spot to enjoy a good beer or cocktail. My favorite jukebox in town. I like it when its a little quiet, you can actually have a chill conversation. Service can be a bit slow but its with a smile and the drinks are good.

    Good beer, but the fact that you MUST sit in silence unless someone is on the jukebox is not exactly good In my book... Also buck and a quarter for some pool tamales that are cut up ain't worth it in my book, seventh son is down the street...

    Loved my first time here! Nice pool tables with plenty of spacing and comfortable side seating. Overall a nice low-key cozy little hole in the wall bar. Good selection of spirits and draughts and some of the best prices in the area. Definitely will be back, especially if I need to do some work in a quieter place that serves drinks ;D

    A great small little place to grab an affordable drink in Italian village area. Im glad this place is back open. The owner is very nice as well.

    Nice hole in the wall atmosphere. They always have good beers on tap at good prices. Go here if you want a quiet place to hang out and maybe play some pool too

    Great local place and I like the people. The beer selection is good and so is the service. I like the feel of the place, it has a very Cheers vibe in a good way.

    Pool tables were nice and reasonably priced, decent parking on 4th St. I didn’t care for the juke box, the song selection was very limited and it was silent for a while when nobody played any songs.

    I liked it. I enjoyed myself, and the bartender was pretty cool.

  • 3/5 Belinda F. 11 months ago on Google • 41 reviews
    Liked the vibes but the bartender was rude and not friendly. He definitely should not be working in the hospitality field.

  • 5/5 Matt E. 7 years ago on Google
    Great draft selection and prices.

  • 5/5 Josh T. 5 years ago on Google
    Great hole in the wall to grab a draft from.

    My favorite bar!

  • 3/5 Alex W. 1 year ago on Google
    The owner, Michelle, is amazing. The hippie, far left bartender, not so much. It's still baffling to me how some people who claim to be a beacon of equality and acceptance can fall so far from it. I guess this to can be performative. Do better.

  • 5/5 Samuel C. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty chill place. Good spot for pool and touchtunes.

    You won't be disappointed in the menu and service. The service here is friendly. Ambience reminds me of Colorado Springs area.
