What People Are Saying About Old Bag Of Nails Pub
Featured Review

The Scene – Named after the London pub where Paul McCartney met first wife Linda Eastman, each Old Bag is decorated with beer-can collections, bric-a-brac and other pub paraphernalia. The Worthington location is a bit darker and hole-in-the-wall cozy, while the Grandview space is larger and good for groups and kids. People come for the food as much as the great selection of imported beers and ales; expect to wait a while for a table on Friday or Saturday nights. The vibe is generally wholesome and neighborhood friendly. – – The Food – Classic American bar food and…
Editor's Tips
- Know Before You Go:
- If you want to avoid smoke, go to one of the other five locations.
- Save Time:
- If the waiting list is too long for the famous fish sandwich, head one mile south on High Street to the Pig Iron BBQ. It's owned by the same people and serves the same sandwich.
- When to Go:
- It's a laid-back get-together for St. Patrick's Day, with occasional bagpipers to boost your spirits.

Great, Friendly spott

Despite the other reviews, I found this to be a great spot for a good meal. The fish and chips arguably the best in the city. It has the Cheers(tv show) atmosphere to it. The staff was very polite. I would reccomend this place to anyone I meet. I went to the high street location.

This was a Major Mistake
by Blaiz at Citysearch
I was sorely disappointed! I had the Fish and Chips, Long Johns does a better job. The place was empty and I see why. People raved about it so I tried it and I will tell everyone I know NOT to go there. The waitstaff was rude and DIRTY, Hard Road location, and the service was weak. People who compare this to English Pubs have never been to a real Pub. I can't believe how bad this place was!!
- Pros: Are you kidding
- Cons: Overpriced, unclean, unsanitary bathroom

awful
by kekeli at Citysearch
My girlfriend and I stopped by the Westerville location. The food was aweful. Her medium steak was crispy and I had to cut the black burnt stuff of my salmon to make it edible. We both finished our drinks halfway through dinner (we ate at the bar), but were never offered any seconds. The bartenders it seems was too busy fussing over the restaurant manager who was sitting next too us having a few too many in her own establishment. Definitely one of the worst dining experiences of my 40 year life!!!
- Pros: good locaiton
- Cons: bad service bad food

Rustic Burger with steak fries. House salad with house dressing
by deejay66 at Citysearch
If I die and go to heaven, I hope there is a Bag of Nails Resturant there!!! Was introduced to this establishment by a friend and it is one of my all time favorite places to eat.
- Pros: Food is very good. I could eat the potato soup and house salad everyday. Like the bigger building in Gahanna.
- Cons: Small building on Nelson and E. Broad.
