Ohio has so many praise-worthy attractions, that we're hardly surprised when the Buckeye State is placed on any "best of" map. But that doesn't mean we're not excited about it! In a list of the most impressive bourbon bars in the country, Buckeye Bourbon House was recently recognized as one of the best in the Midwest. Whether you're a fan of this kind of whisky or simply appreciate trying out a new business, you'll be glad to have learned about this Columbus spot. (And if you're not planning on drinking, they have delicious bites, too!)
Welcome to Buckeye Bourbon House! Located in the historic location of the former Buckeye State Building and Loan Company, this hidden gem of a destination is one worth seeking out.
The moment you step inside, you'll find a cozy atmosphere that feels deeply connected to the East Gay Street Community of Columbus.
You'll notice that many of the original architectural details of the building have been saved, such as the original 40-foot brass-plated ceilings, marble floors, and marble columns. It's a bit like stepping back in time.
Whether you're a bourbon aficionado or have never really sampled this spirit, you'll find the menu to be very approachable. Each drink on the menu can be fully customizable to your taste, too.
If you're enjoying one of the signature cocktails, you'll notice that many of the ingredients are sourced locally.
And while bourbon and other spirits are certainly at the heart of this business, the food menu is equally as impressive.
Brunch is served on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Favorites include French toast, shrimp & grits, and the famous cinnamon rolls, which are served in a cast-iron skillet with a warm vanilla-bourbon glaze.
Menu items range from small bites to larger entrees, meaning you could easily enjoy an entire meal here.
So whether you're in the mood for a fancy cocktail, bourbon tasting, or simply a fun night out with your friends, you'll find that Buckeye Bourbon House is the perfect place to celebrate any occasion.
