Eight And Sand Tavern Refuge

Really enjoyed the wings here!! Nate, the owner, was super friendly and inviting to my friend and I as it was our first time there. The pimento cheese burger was also very good. I'll be back for sure!

Great food and drinks. Staff is friendly, patrons are always welcoming.

The perfect neighborhood bar. A few tvs, about 8 beers on tap, great whisky list and HH specials, amazing food, amazing service, always a good time!

Great food the wings were awesome and my son loved the pork belly sandwich

One of the coolest dive bars in Columbus area. Has a casual, unpretentious local bar vibe that is cool. The draft beer selection is good. Service and bartenders are great.The food is really good! I am a frequent gastro pub customer and can tell you that most of these types of places have decent food. Eight and Sand over delivers and their food beats most gastro pubs in Columbus! The bartender said they have a cook in the back that is experienced and talented it shows. The food is second to none. Of the 20 or so gastro pubs in Columbus that I frequent, there are only 3 that come to mind as having food as good as Eight and Sand.Caveat emptor there is no parking. You will park in the neighborhood. Very common for urban dining. The bar looks a bit rough from the outside it looks like a dive bar. Inside decor also dive bar not high end gastro pub. It is cool just understand the genre.There are signs that the maintenance is being neglected above where I was sitting a large sheet of paint was peeling off the HVAC return. Hopefully the management will invest is keeping this place tip top; it is worth it, the place is dope.I almost gave it 5 stars. Easily 5 star but there were too many signs the owner is not keeping up on the maintenance. For example, a dive bar doesn't mean broke down. Fix the busted up stuff this place is a gem.Conclusion I will be back regularly you should go there also.
