Establishment specific: Afterhours Sports Bar

Afterhours is a small bar on the north end of Columbus, in a strip center at SR 161 and Karl Road. It's simple and not snobby and that is what I enjoy about the place. Dollar domestic drafts every day is also a good thing, including one of my favs, PBR. Several TVs, not huge but good enough for the bar, a couple pooltables and dart boards, Golden Tee, a pretty cool bowling game, pinball, and the usual jukebox. The staff is great and meaghan just might be the most beautiful bartender in the city. She is awesome. The neon is pretty run of the mill, typical beer and alcohol stuff, but it is a bar..so umm, that makes sense. All pics were taken the evening of Monday, 5/4. Was pretty busy for a Monday night.






One of my favs..This was my grandmother's beer when I was a kid, now here I am drinking it! Over the last 5 years or so this has become cool and hip and 20somethings fell in love with it, after having a grandparenty image for decades. While still cheap, it's only a matter of time before they raise the price when a beer has been "cool" long enough. A 6 pack is typically $4.99 for six PINT (16 oz) cans or bottles and here at Afterhours it is $1.00 for a tall glass.

Another one of my favs, though I don't always need the girly orange slice. Not on the dollar domestic draft list at Afterhours though.

I agree...no frills, but just good ol fashion beer and hospitality...along with affordable beer they serve free hotdogs with all the trimmings during the games...that keeps people from leaving to get a bite from somewhere else and just down right all American! Shawn is a cool bartender...likes to flip glasses and do top gun tricks...he always has a smile and a nice word...and not bad to look at!!! ;-)
