"Walking around the convention center area on a Wednesday 9:30pm (no NHL game night) and, while a couple of places already had chairs piled up on tables, the Char Bar bar area was packed and high energy. I had in mind the place caught up on fire, thus the name, but it actually had a drunk driver just crashing into the bar and damaging everything. Now became a story to tell (nobody hurt) and a picturesque place in town."

"Great little dive bar close to our hotels. The staff was attentive and friendly. Drinks were generous and really reasonable prices. We’ll be back. Okay … went back every night. Best value around. Bartenders were the nicest. You can get 3 beers here for what it cost for one drink at close by places. Every time I was here everyone was friendly - met people from all over. Go check out this “dive bar.” Yes, their bathroom smells like my grandma’s basement."

"Great dive, and a great vibe. Crazy that it is right in the heart of the convention center area, and still thriving, and not bought out by some corporation."

"Had a great time. Different people from Different places everyone there for fun. Outside may look a little run down, however fun times on the inside."

"Great, semi historical dive bar, one of my top ten bars still around in cbus"
