The Barrel Room — Restaurant in Ohio

The Barrel Room in North Canton ( as well as The Barrel Room on Canal) are among our favorite places to frequent. The Barrel Room in North Canton is perfect for Drinks and delicious Appetizers to enjoy with great folks. Never any drama as with other area bars or Restaurants. The Atmosphere and Decor are world Class ! The various Wine, Craft Beer and Bourbon Selections are top notch ! Keri does a great job updating new selections as well as keeping some of the staples , like Sullivan’s Irish Red. If you’re looking for a quaint , romantic dinner experience , the Barrel Room on Canal is where you need to go. The food selections are to die for. There is something for everyone! Our favorites are the burgers ,wraps, 1/2 chicken dinners, not to mention drink selections. If you are looking to host a party... look no more... Between both locations, Keri can accommodate all sizes of parties,(especially now, yes during this Pandemic. Keri takes serious all the social distancing laws. She does a great job abiding by the rules put into place for everyone’s safety. We have hosted a Retirement Party, Bridal Shower, Gender Reveal all in North Canton. All were huge successes. We have been to many other events at both places that were always great. My personal favorite is Abby Salvino ( Our own Marvelous Mrs Maisel ) . Her stand up is hilarious!!! My favorite musicians include Scott Paris, Eric Brook Band and Saxy Rob. I give both places a 5 star rating and highly recommend you go check them out for...

This is a fantastic hidden gem my wife and I had no idea existed.

My wife and I were walking to lunch while waiting for our car to get fixed, and it started to rain pretty hard. As it did, I noticed The Barrel Room to our right, and we figured we'd pop in and Vibe check it for a sec to at least get out of the rain.

I'm so glad we did.

The owners, and some of their family were there as it was pretty early in the day. The group of patrons were clearly regulars and had a really great energy.

We were greeted quickly and well taken care of. I have a Celiac allergy, and the staff was awesome about answering questions, bringing me some of their ingredients so I could see what was used, and then separating everything so it was safe to eat.

But the kicker? There was a bit of a mix up with Chipotle, and they sent the wrong order to the business. The bartender taking care of us popped over, mentioned he hated black beans, and gave us that meal for free.

So we showed up to get out of the rain, sure, but ended up really enjoying a great lunch date because of how awesome the staff was. Got drinks, a charcuterie board to share, and the bonus Chipotle touch was just an extra excellent touch of customer service.

This is the type of place people are looking for to spend some time and relax.

100% recommend you check out this place if...

We booked this venue for our daughter’s wedding reception and unfortunately had a disappointing experience.

Before the event, we spoke directly with the owner to establish a firm bar cutoff after tax and gratuity, so we’d know the exact amount owed. However, there was no communication with the bartender, who stopped service at the pre-tax total and then added tax afterward, pushing us over our agreed-upon budget.

Additionally, our caterer needed to retrieve equipment after the event. The bartender informed us they were closed Mondays but that pickup would be fine after 4 PM on Tuesday. Instead of contacting us, the parents and paying clients, the owner called the couple and threatened to throw the items away. When we called to clarify, the owner denied saying that and spoke to us in an unnecessarily stern tone, claiming there was “no room” because of other events.

When we expressed disappointment that she hadn’t honored the agreed-upon bar limit, she said she “misunderstood” and added that she felt they “went above and beyond.” Unfortunately, that was not our experience. Clear communication and accountability were seriously lacking from...
