Great food. Awesome atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent experience all around. As a result, were probably going to become regulars. 👍👍
Delicious apps and burgers. Staff is very friendly and attentive
Food was good but we waited 20 minutes just to get our bill after we were done eating. I think there was one person working here on a busy Saturday.
The food and classic cocktails are delicious. This is the only place I’ve found in Lima that serves a Negroni which was well made. I tried the pretzels with beer cheese, fried ravioli, and KO-Rail burger and was impressed with it all. The burger was super messy and I could have used a wet wipe (or just used my fork) but had amazing flavor. The place hasn’t even been open a month and there are still kinks to be worked out. Service was a little slow and while the inside has a great look, the vibe was off. It got better once the live music started but before that there was no music. They have a TouchTunes jukebox but we didnt see it until leaving. Still, it has the makings to be one of the best places in Lima and the food is already nailed down. Can’t wait to go back to try something else on the menu and see if those new restaurant kinks are ironed out.UPDATE: Second time was even better! Got the Locomotive Burger, Potato Kegs, and a Boulevardier. Don’t think you’ll go wrong with any food or drink choice here! Plus our waitress was great with plenty of people checking in on us.
Weve been before and the food was good, but the service was awful. This time neither food nor service were good (BLT with two slices of bacon and 3 slices of bread, a PB&J Burger delivered as a Philly Steak and Breaded Wings delivered as naked then recooked and not delivered until after the entrées, and an order of Spicy Cheese Cubes not even put in, then accused the kitchen of being at fault initially.) 3 of us dined in, and 4 of our orders were either wrong or not put in at all. Follow that with our appetizer coming after our entrées and our waitress rarely coming to the table. Management had nothing but excuses and zero apologies. Im dissapointed to say the least. I truly enjoy supporting our local businesses, but not this time. Maybe under new management and with a competent wait staff we could come back and enjoy it.
Outstanding Christmas Sangria 🎄 Wonderful NYE steak special! Brussel sprouts were the 💣 Great service! Unique Blue Cheese Dressing
Wonderful, friendly service from Lynette. The pulled pork sandwich was the best Ive ever had. Husband liked his fish dinner too. Neither of us cared for the slaw. Next time well skip it and get something else.
Food was top tier. Loved it. Service however was not good...at all.
Amazing place, authentic, great atmosphere, and excellent burgers!
My 1st time there. I had the Locomotive Burger and my wife had one of their gigantic salads. Food was great. They have a nice patio area out back. Live music on Friday and Saturday nights. I cant wait to go back.
Good place to eat,great service great atmosphere
Employees were very friendly, didnt let me get thirsty and the food was really good. I will def be going back.
Potential abounds here! Great pub food and friendly service.They could do with a bit more discipline in controlling their environment. One loud patron near the kitchen was nearly the only other person dining other than us and was obnoxious. And loud music coming from either him or the kitchen... whatever it was, it didnt feel like dining room / bar speakers.That aside though, the food was great. All of the fried items were perfectly done, not greasy. Very well picked ingredients and preparation. Their cook is to be commended.
Good food, cute place. Unfortunately took over an hour to make some sandwiches which is pretty disappointing. They did take off from our bill and I get that we are all human so its good they admitted their mistake at least.
Great place for dinner and drinks! Everything was good. Including the band!
Great bartender. Unique great food, quick service, Clean
Was after 8pm, finding anything open let alone serving food was a tough gig. As out of towners we didnt know a thing about a thing. Popped into this little gem on a whim and it blew our minds. Tons of space, Friendly and fun staff. The loaded sidewinders will blow your mind for $6 bucks and coupled with a beer is your meal. Folks, you gotta check this place out. Jonny hooked it up and was easily in the top 5% of friendly and fun servers weve encountered ever.
Drove to the location Monday Jan10th 2022 as it showed open but was not
We were in from out of town and looking for food after 9pm. This was the only option that came without a side of extreme sketchiness. But were glad we found it! The food was awesome. Their appetizers are crazy, I got the fried mac n cheese bites, best Ive had. Get their sweet chili sauce and dip EVERYTHING in it, itll blow your mind. Standard bar options with a few gastropub offerings thrown in, but the quality of food is way above average bar food. Mixed drinks were pretty cheap but made very well, their bartender lady (cant remember her name) is an excellent mixologist and the beer is priced OK. Next time were in Lima were definitely going back!
It was a nice atmosphere and the staff was friendly.
Stumbled upon this place and so glad we did!! Atmosphere perfect!Food delicious and not typical bar food!Staff friendly courteous knowledgeable!Awesome experience and will be back!!!
Love the food and the service is always great there.
Friendly staff, good food & atmosphere!
I liked it! Good shrimp and chips. Great beer! And the waitress was very kind and friendly. I talked to an off duty worker and he got me a beer sampler (cheers.) Great place to hang out and relax. I really liked this place and I will return.
Great atmosphere, the service and food was excellent!
Great food great service really good food actually
I know the food is good, but my burger was not at the time I went for lunch. It was cold and overcooked.
They close at 9pm, we showed up at 8pm, and was greeted with a yell that If you do not have laundry started by 8:00 that you have no business being there. She was rude to the point if George Washington asked us to come back I would not show up.
Great bartender and friendly staff. Well lit business with great options for everyone.
Great place. We were a little hesitant based on outside but so happy we followed the recommendation.Food and staff were outstanding.
This restaurant recently opened and wanted to give it a shot. I was not overly impressed with the food or the service. The menu was quite small and had more apps than main courses. I ordered a sweet tea and it was horrible it was out of a machine. I ordered a classic burger and it was a frozen patty and was cooked well done. The fries I got were not fully cooked. However, the pretzel bites were quite good with the cheese. Overall I was not overly satisfied. I will not be back.
Good old fashioned bar with todays menu. Great bartenders!
Breakfast with Santa 🎅 and Mrs Claus 🤶 was great! They were very accommodating.
Ate here with friends tonight. In the past, weve only come in later for appetizers and drinks on the patio. Finally tried it for dinner. There is a little bit of inconsistency in the apps, but the food was pretty good. I had the special: buffalo chicken lasagna with antipasto salad and cheese stuffed breadsticks. Wow ! Never even heard of it but it was great. My friend tried the 318 burger, with spicy peanut butter and jalapeno pickles. Very different and tasty. The toasted bun with the 318 logo burned in was a great touch. Loaded Side winders were also inventive. Service was really good tonight. Prices are very fair.
Great atmosphere, awesome bartender! (Tara) Food was delicious as well. Definitely won’t be my last time there!
Very good appetizers, soup, sandwiches, and salad. Nice bar/restaurant atmosphere.
Theres this burger called the jelly doughnut burger...... and thats all I got to say about that
Awesome place! Been there twice and had great food and great service both times. We love it, its one of our new favorites. And the ambience is awesome. Also a very cool (and large) patio out back looks like itll be a great place to party next summer.Highly recommended! :)
Great atmosphere! Good food and drink choices. Great service. We will go there again!
Fun atmosphere. Really nice outside set up. Wish they had a DJ more often. The staff is friendly and the food is good. They have a wide variety of drinks at the bar.
Great Food. Great prices. Great staff. I am very satisfied with my first time going to this Bar today. Its very clean and also friendly.
I got a club sandwich n sweet potato club that was good. hubby got a shredded pork sandwich n it was a pork chop with a little shredded pork n hee didnt like that or the slaw that he had on the side. onion rings were good. music loud...beautiful interior
Great food and service in a delightful old building. Outstanding onion rings.
Big big mistake. Tara is THE BEST. Not coming back, period.
Food and wait staff was amazing. The drinks were WAY over priced. First visit and will be our last, unless we are grabbing a quick bite and not looking to spend a bit of time there.
Amazing food, great service will definately be back again!
My son and I stopped here in the burgers were amazing! Try the tater kegs you will be impressed. The bartender was absolutely awesome he was extremely friendly and helpful with recommendations.
Awesome, simply great food! And we love the atmosphere. Well be going back again and again. Looking forward to pleasant summer nights on the patio listening to music.... :)
The food was fantastic! The service was fast, friendly & attentive...we will definitely be back and recommend to friends!

2022-02-28My wife and I take a weekly road trip to a different county seat in Ohio and eat at a local restaurant when were there. When we visited Allen County 318 Restaurant & Bar was our chosen restaurant. It was a late lunch time and the service was quick and friendly. The food was very good! It was a great choice.

2022-04-02Words arent enough...just go there..you wont be disappointed....mac and cheese burger..mmm🤤🤤🤤
Review №3
2022-05-02Food was nearly inedible. I ordered their most popular burger, and it tasted terrible and didnt sit right in my stomach. They didnt have many vegetarian options. The drinks were $2 overpriced, especially for the quality of the beverages.This restaurant is far to overpriced for the services they sell.

2020-10-28Cool downtown space with a great atmosphere and look. Good drink selection as well as nice roster of cold beer. Food is on point just like the service. I will be back, the fries were dynamite.

2019-08-06The sandwich are top notch. Love the chicken parmesan with cheese sandwich. Mango habanero chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries was the best so far. I have the limited time drink the key Lima...it was ok cant hit it out the park every time. Great place to hangout and shot the sh*t
