ale house columbia

Decided on burgers but didn't want another fast food meal. Food was good, service was good, as a bar & grill, it was just what I wanted. They had a good selection of beers as well. My son and I tried the Spinach Artichoke dip as an appetizer, it was also good.

Their selection of beer is pretty good. The food was OK for the price. Not sure if we came at a bad time.. although it wasn't busy.. but the food was off. It was our first time here.

Great flatbreads and the French onion soup is to die for. Good variety. This is a great place to meet friends. They have a cozy modern atmosphere. The wait staff is excellent.

If you want to watch a game and join the crowd, this is the place! Beer is fantastic (though pricy)! The turkey burger is the best around. I love the caramelized onions they put on top. Their salads are very good as well. If you don't like noisy....don't come here. Happy Hour is fun and the open bar in the back is great on a nice spring day. We like this spot for a beer, some pub food and a great game (Go Ravens/Go Skins....a house divided!).

It took a while before our server came over. We put in an order for wings and drinks. She came back after an appropriate amount of time with our drinks and took our food order. A LONG time passed - no server, no wings, no food. Finally the food came out. Wait - what happened to our appetizer? We asked them to bring the wings anyway and dug into our food. The Ale House burger was delicious as were the veggie slaw and the sauce for the blackened chicken pasta. The "blackened chicken" was an unseasoned, dry piece of chicken breast. Very disappointing. Turns out the "seasoned" fires were also unseasoned. The wings finally made an appearance after I caught the server texting in the bathroom - really??? The sauce for the wings was actually really tasty, the wings themselves didn't really do much for me. The cookie and ice cream dessert was warm and gooey and delicious!

Tried the new restaurant on a Sunday evening. Atmosphere is great, server was attentive and food was good. My boyfriend ate the blackened chicken pasta which he said was really good and I had the fried egg burger with green beans in place of fries. Both were good and they didn't charge extra for the substitution. Green beans were awesome and they gave a good size portion! Not quite a full 5 stars as their menu for food it a bit limited and we wanted to try one of their mussel dishes but all it came with was bread no pasta. That's more an appetizer to me then dinner. We will be going back.

This place just opened in early December so you can expect some growing pains. We liked the look of the place..lots of seating choices and TV screens to watch games. The service was good and we enjoyed the selection of beers - loved the fact that they even had ciders available. The food was not so good - we had to send back the wings because they were charred and the second batch we got was not properly cooked through. We will give this place a try again and hope the food has improved by then as the menu selections look good.
