Johnnie's Glenn Avenue Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Columbus

Once a local grocery store, this is a family-owned, friendly, old neighborhood bar. Despite the word "Grill" in the name, food is not served here, however you may bring-in or order-out from many nearby pizza, Chinese, and fast food restaurants. Regulars often bring food to share.

This is a cash-only bar but there is an ATM. There is a large selection of beer (enlarge my photo below) but none on tap. Busch N/A is available for the designated driver.

Pleasant bartenders make well poured cocktails (sorry that Eric had a bad experience. As in all bars, some tenders don't measure up and don't last).

There is no need for a happy hour because the prices are always more than fair.

There is a pool table, a pinball machine, Touchtunes music, five TVs, nine seats at the bar, and ample seating at several tables. A smoking area with table seating is in the rear.

There is a parking area behind the bar and street parking neaby.

Mind your manners and your loud voices as this is a residential area. Don't...

A must visit, hole in the wall of an actual house, honest to goodness dive bar in the heart of Grandview! Johnnie's is one of those places you always hear people talk about, but if you don't know where it is will probably never find. Tucked away on a quiet residential street is this diamond in the rough treasure trove of vintage bar decor, random home furnishings, and some of the cheapest drinks in town. Jenn is one of the best bartenders in the city, and she keeps the drinks strong and moving. Bring $20, play the jukebox, and please drink...

Your favorite dive bar’s favorite bar. It’s got all the makings of a great dive: cheapest drinks in town, cash only, in an old house, pool table, touch tunes, old eclectic decor. It’s a great little spot where there’s clearly some rules you learn as a regular: ex. You can go back to the beer fridge, grab your preferred drinks, and then hand them cash instead of ordering. It’s a gem...
