Best in Columbus

Every time I've been to Union Station - usually Sundays for Showtunes! - I have LOVED it. They have the best servers, fabulous bartenders, good food (it IS a bar, not a five star restaraunt) and wonderful drinks. The Chocolate Martinis are the best. :)

Union? Do I look like Norma Rae?

Union Station is one of the most entertaining bars I've ever gone to. They serve food - which is consistently disappointing - and drinks and lots of very enjoyable entertainment. The "video lounge" aspect is always a hit - music videos, comedy montages, and the Sunday favorite: "showtunes" make it worth while. If you go, be prepared to stay for fun. Chicken Quasadillas are the best thing I've had, but I've had lots...and I use the term "best" very losely. Good bartenders and slow service though.

Lots of fun

If you are looking for a nice place to relax and hang with your friends, this is a great place to go. The waitstaff is cute and the bartenders can be entertaining. Great video bar...
