Oh frabjous day, callou, callay – a new pub that opened with two steel tip dart boards – the best set up for playing darts that I have yet seen, too bad it’s in Ohio and not near me in California; even beats Cat & Fiddle.

The Pub

Serves a full menu, extensive selection of domestic and imported beers including my personal favorite Lambic Apple.  Several TVs; quick, friendly service.

The doors to the right of the dart boards can be opened during good weather making the entire space a covered patio.  No, the wall doesn’t lean, apparently I do.

I liked it so much when the temperature was 25 degrees and there was no food available that I went back again when it got warmer…

and I wasn’t disappointed obviously, this is a 25 degrees picture.

Large with a long two sided bar and lots of beer choices but since you’re in Ohio try the local Great Lakes brands; several are available all year long but they also have seasonal choices.  Food was available the second time around and it was a decided cut above most bar food: mussels swimming in butter and garlic, after finishing up the mussels I couldn’t resist sopping up the liquid with loaf bread provided by the friendly server.  Gorged on potato skins that were soft and fresh, not microwaved.  Spent almost two hours in the large, separate billiards/darts room, playing steel tip, eating peanuts from the hull and refilling the beer glass.  Still a sparse Sunday afternoon crowd the last week in April but the calendar shows lots of weekend activities even when it’s cold and especially after the summer season starts in May.
