The service was amazing!!! Food was okay. Ordered the wings with sauce on the side. There was no taste to them without the sauce. Everyone else enjoyed their food except for the greens seemed to be saturated with vinegar.

This was the first time that we tried Barrel & Boar at the Gahanna Creekside location. When the Westerville location at the State Theatre closed soon after we transplanted from NE Ohio two years ago, we were quite bummed as that was nearby as well as having the most upscale menu of the five locations. All this to say, we were not disappointed at the Gahanna Creekside location. Delicious food, great ambiance and service. We look forward to when it is warmer so that we could peruse the outside facilities and resources. Parking underneath for free was a breeze. We are 55 years young. Thank you!

Do not sit in the bar area it was so hard to get attention from the bartender. They shouldn’t have the bartender waiting on tables. The bartender couldn’t pay attention to our needs we needed water silverware refills on drinks. Ketchup in which I never received.

We had such a nice waitress which really made our Valentine’s Day dinner enjoyable. Great chocolate covered strawberry martini and delicious hush puppies!! It was nice that the outside fire pit was lit creating a warm feeling inside on a cold night.
