St James Tavern in Columbus

The owner, Michelle, is amazing. The hippie, far left bartender, not so much. Its 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.

My favorite bar!

Killer bar, but unfortunately, Owner filtered every gosh darn musician worth their salt out of the jukebox

Great dive bar in Italian Village. Pool table too!

Great beer selection on tap. Best people always.

One of the best secret spots in Columbus, chill vibes, craft beer on draft on deck and the best prices in town.

Great dive. They seemed to have no problem with us getting rowdy.

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.

This is my favorite place. Pool, pinball, art, no annoying TVs. Michelle always supports her community and I love this place.

One of the last best bars in the area, holdin it down, as the other local bars are full of yuppies, chaches, hipsters, & richers. A warm inviting place for weirdos to seek refuge...

I see everyone really likes this place. Didnt work for me. Exclusive to the regulars is my guess. ITunes Juke Box is "filtered". Tried to play some music and at least half were not allowed.

I dont know what type of establishment this is ,.but trust me people of color are not welcome !!!The IRS should look into this place!!!!!!!

One of the best, most affordable, low key places for craft beer in the city.

Typical neighborhood bar, pool tables and oddly enough no domestic beers.

Great hole in the wall to grab a draft from.

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

Nice small place with good beer on draft. Pool tables too if youre interested.

Good local watering hole with a better then average selection on beer and very fine staff. Plus they got pool tables!

Great low key bar with pool tables. Owner is a great person and local activist

Awesome tavern, great staff, great depth of selection. It is not a big chain so dont expect a hundred beer on tap.

Very cool little dive bar in a cool part of town. No screens. Pool table. Good tap list. Simple no fuss kinda bar.

Dive bar with great craft beer draft selection, reasonable prices, and great service. Hipsters and average Joes alike will enjoy.

Great neighborhood bar!

Best bar in Columbus. Reasonable prices, amazing staff, cool art and a couple pool tables. What more do you need?

Small, intimate. 2 pool tables, excellent beer selection, friendly, helpful staff

Love the extensive menu of beers on tap, great atmosphere

The best bar in Columbus. No TVs, one pool table, cheap drinks, fantastic beer selection. There is nothing more you need to know.

Great prices and staff. Pinball machine bonus points, as well!

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

Two pool tables, cool jamz on the juke, and great beers on tap.

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, youre almost guaranteed to run into someone you know, which goes a long way for me personally.

My kinda joint: no TVs, no Wi-Fi, two great pool tables, well-curated beers on tap, minimal d-bags.

It is what it is without apologies. Take it or leave it. Good drafts, great prices...dont be obnoxious or a dick....youll have a good time.

Pretty good watering hole with pool. Decent beer selection.

Awesome place to grab a drink and play some pool. Bartenders are always great.

Always a good selection of craft beers on tap.. Along with a good selection of bottles and cans

My Favorite local Pub! Always a great selection of craft and local on tap. All pints are $4. Good beer. Good people.

Excellent service. Well curated beer selection. Killer knotty pine paneling.

Laid back atmosphere. Good drinks. Pool table. Jukebox!

The bartender is great and you get to play pool. Could you ask for more out of a dive bar?

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 atmosphere! Good drinks! Great prices!

A little hole in the wall bar with great, friendly staff and a solid beer selection.

I can think of multiple reasons not to come here. Slow service, dark atmosphere, and the silence just to name a few.

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 aint worth it in my book, seventh son is down the street...

Great locals bar. One of the few places to play pool in the area.

Great draft selection and prices.

A comfortable local bar with pool tables and a good beer selection at affordable prices.

Great location. Kinda small on the inside but seems to always draw a crowd! Id go back!

My favorite watering hole in Columbus. Great draft selection, excellent jukebox! A great place to go to escape the football insanity!
