Lovell's Tavern

WHOOAAAA!! If you like chicken wings, this place is LEGIT. It is the definition of a hole in the wall bar. The customer service was fantastic (Kalee was our bartender and was great), the patrons were super friendly, they have two pool tables (they looked as if they were in pretty bad shape), electronic darts, a bowling and putt putt game, TouchTunes and Keno.

Okay, NOW onto the wing review! HOLY MOLY! We have a contender for the top wing spot in Central Ohio!!! I ordered five Spicy Garlic and five Cajun Honeay (all flat and extra crispy of course). The chicken was super fresh, the flavor and spice were on point, and the wings weren’t that greasy. My only complaint is that they could have been more crispy. I have said this before, if you have a good product, have good ranch! Make it house made! Oh yeah, and their Truth IPA was super fresh. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!

The Spicy Garlic and Cajun Honeay: 9.4/10
Ranch: 5.1/10

For all of you who rave about the wings at Shaker’s, Mean Mugs, Pastimes, Roosters and Blu-Willy’s, trust me when I say that those places don’t even compare to this place, and you need to make the drive to Lovell’s to check it out. I take my reviews very seriously and I believe I gave Shakers a 5.1/10, Mean Mugs 8.1/10, Blu-Willy’s drums 2.1/10 and their flats a 7.3/10, and Roadhouse a 9.3/10.

Onto the BONUS Review: I tried the pizza since I saw a couple of tables order it. 6.5/10

I’ve been hearing about this place in the chicken wing group on Facebook. My wife and I stopped in last Friday. The wings were soooo good. The best I’ve had in Columbus. I go all around town trying some of the “top” places. These are by far the best. I had the spicy garlic and Cajun honey. The wings were a perfect size, perfect crunch, juicy, great flavor and perfect layer of breading. I’m so happy I found this place. My new wing spot.

I had their pizza in August of 2023, and I went back in January of 2024. The pizza was really good, but the wings were OUTSTANDING. I highly recommend Lovell’s.

Had the new Lovell's Sampler with Cheese Curds, Potato Boats and Traditional Garlic Parmesan Wings. They tasted great! Always have great food here, and is always hot. Definitely recommend their Pizza, Italian and Super Italian subs, their wings....(and something most bars don't serve) their Reuben sandwich! Their garlic bread is good too. Staff and owner are friendly!

Chelsea gets five (5) stars only!!! She was in here working by herself with a PACKED bar. I used to bartend and for her to be able to pay attention to detail and more is AMAZING! She remembered what everyone wanted and kept her cool throughout the madness. TO THE OWNER; you need to hire help to be able to assist her. She needs a raise PERIOD! Without her today your bar would not have done so good.

Best wings I've had in a long time. Beer isn't too expensive and everybody seems to get along here. The place looks like a bar in a small town movie but I like that a lot.

The glowing reviews of Courtney were 100% spot on. She single handedly serve the whole place with a smile and efficiency. The food was great and a wonderful atmosphere.

Love the food people are very friendly everything is right on time with them

I have been coming to this place for years for the food and pool. It is a mixed crowd of people and they play good music through the jukebox for any culture. On fridays they have a dj who comes in and plays people requests and they have awesome drinks and might I say food. So if you are looking for a place to unwind and want to drink good spirits I highly recommend this place.

The best wings that I have ever had! The pizza is great too!

Best Carolina Gold wings… Get the Carolina Gold wings with breading extra well done!!!!
The pizza is amazing as well.. it’s a super chill place. It has a jukebox and pools tables too.

Pizza always really good. Lovell’s was out of sausage today but I’ll still give them 5 stars in all the years I’ve been coming to Lovell’s this is the first time they have been out of some thing. Great neighborhood spot, al the food here is great especially the wings and sandwiches

Neighborhood place with THE BEST wings!!! The pizza is delicious as well. All the employees are attentive, polite & pretty quick. Usually get food to go but have hung out there a few times. Nice pool tables.

Great food good atmosphere service was a bit slow 🐌 waitresses were very pleasant

My favorite bar, always good food. I come here often and I’ve tried the pizza, Italian sub and fried pickles and they all were great. Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.. Good people to be around, never have to worry about a fight starting like the other bars. Everyone gets along like you know each other. Very laid back Super friendly people and even better bartenders! I really enjoy coming here and the bartender named Bell is the best!

The bartenders are great especially Courtney! And I have to say hands down the best wings in Columbus! I order mines naked extra crispy, hot extra wet, so good!

Best chicken wings I’ve ever had. Came here because it was the closest place with food. The cheese burger that my boyfriend got was amazing as well.

Wings are really good when the male cooks are in the kitchen. Salads are worth the money as well.

This is the best bar ever...everything is great. The people are like family.

Very tasty grub! Breaded fried chicken wings were top tier! Crispy and perfect. Patty melt was buttery and delicious. Can’t wait to try more!
