The Barrel House
Bar
🫤 it's too bright. climate control works too well -- the air is crisp and dry. they were playing ez-listening instrumentals of wu-tang clan tracks. a feeling of shame washes over you as you sit in a victorian tufted chair, edgy and buzzed from the 7.5% beer they serve -- you're drinking at the library...

Tender Mercy
Cocktail bar
👍👍 Quite possibly the greatest cocktail bar of all time! First, you enter by literally going underground. Once inside, the ambiance is dark and mysterious (my husband says it looks like a fancy vampire decorated it). The staff is incredibly helpful and the drinks are beyond compare! We went there to ce...

Van Buren Room
Cocktail bar
👍👍 Great cocktails.. very well made. Security is tight so don’t try anything. Booths are intimate and bathrooms really clean. Didn’t eat, but cocktails were creative and made by pros.

Gather
Coffee shop
👍 We stopped by to do Friends Coffee Hangout. Very nice sitting arrangements, good to have quick meets or work remote as well. We enjoyed the ambience and talk. Good change of place in downtown Dayton.

Little Fish Brewing Company - Dayton Station

👍👍 Inside and outside dining. Great waiter, bartender and chef. We had three different entrees and all were fantastic. Highly recommended! Good portions at a fair price. The burger was a perfect medium. Pasta, tender and the sauce, wow! House salad dressing was delicious.

NextDoor
Bar
😠 Note: I rewrote this review.
I had the pleasure of visiting this bar for the first time and it definitely earned a well-deserved 5-star rating. Our bartender, Willie or Willy (apologies for the name confusion), truly made our experience memorable. His fantastic craftmanship, friendly personality, a...

Chris's Band Box
Cocktail bar
😠 We didn't make it inside. There was a crackhead bathing in the rain water dripping from the roof while attempting to make eye contact with my husband and I. So, we left.

Moeller Brew Barn - Dayton
Brewery
👍 They knocked it out of the park with this place, and that's only lightly a reference to the baseballs that will be heading their way out of the Dragons stadium! An awesome outdoor space, with a 2nd level overlooking the dragons stadium! With a huge selection of beers to choose from with most made by...
