Big On 2 - Columbus
Big On 2
Description
Nestled within the Hyatt Regency in Columbus, The Big Bar on 2 offers a vibrant atmosphere but leaves much to be desired in terms of food quality and service. Patrons rave about a standout chicken quesadilla and unique cocktails, notably The Scallywag, crafted with care by attentive bartenders. However, inconsistent service and mediocre food, including soggy fries and overpriced meals, often mar the experience. While the bar remains a lively gathering spot during conventions, recent price hikes and lackluster service have led some regulars to rethink their visits. A place with potential, it needs a refresh to reclaim its charm.

I must really love this place. It's always bustling with congress attendees and travelers in town. It reminds me of the old Honda motorcycle ad—You meet the nicest people at the Big Bar on 2.
I visited while attending an animation convention, and the hotel bar featured a special drink menu for guests that weekend. One standout drink was called The Scallywag, essentially an Arnold Palmer with a splash of Captain Morgan Spiced Rum. The earthy flavor of the tea balanced beautifully with the fresh sweetness of the lemonade and the warmth of the rum, making this drink truly exceptional. A round of applause for the head mixologist at the hotel for creating such a simple yet fantastic concoction. Throughout the weekend, the bartenders executed this drink flawlessly. The bartenders were attentive, taking orders promptly and serving drinks at a steady pace, so I never had to wait too long. It was also helpful that there were staff members on the floor, taking drink orders and delivering them during the evening hours. Overall, a great experience at The Big Bar on 2!
Bartenders were great, we still checked, although we were not directly at the bar.
