C.J. O'Malley's Irish Pub — Restaurant in Harrison Township

During our visit, we encountered an issue with the bartender regarding ID verification. My friend presented a digital copy of her driver’s license, as she was awaiting the physical card after renewing online. The bartender refused to accept this form of ID, which is understandable given that Ohio law requires alcohol retailers to verify age using acceptable forms of identification, such as a driver’s license, Ohio ID card, U.S. passport, or military ID. 

When I presented my government-issued ID, the bartender scrutinized it for an extended period and ultimately expressed discomfort in accepting it. This interaction felt unnecessarily prolonged and gave the impression of discriminatory behavior.

While I understand the importance of adhering to legal ID verification procedures, the manner in which the situation was handled left much to be desired. I hope the management addresses these concerns to ensure a more welcoming environment for all patrons.

There’s was a megit bartender...

O’Malley’s is a fun atmosphere with awesome staff and patrons. Great after-work spot for a drink or a place to catch up with old friends in town. Browns Backers bar makes this a great spot for NFL football sundays! Grab some pizza from next door at Domino’s through the attached window, or order in any other...

The liquor was watered down and should be reported. So I have inlisted on the ATF bulletin board. The barmaid "Taylor" was very rude and unprofessional. They didn't carry my usual brand of beer So I had to settle for something that they did have. Maybe the panaciadamic was the problem, Maybe I'll find another...
