Park Circle Cafe

Ate lunch today. Tried 4 different sauces on their wings. Also had their homemade potato chips. Everything was very good. Wing sauces are unique and homemade. Spicey dill, raspberry Chipotle, pb&j, and many more. I’ll be back. Warning, there’s not much indoor seating.

At first glance, Park Circle is your run of the mill small town bar, but upon closer examination, it has a lot going for it. First of all, it has a strong biker presence. I’m not quite sure I would call it a full blown biker bar, but it’s clear they are welcome here. I saw several non-​bike types come and go during my visit though, so I’d say all are welcome. It is the sort of bar that keeps the TV on Fox News. Not too surprising.
Other pluses include a surprisingly tasty food menu, including at least 16 different wing sauces. Not having much by way of vegetarian fare, I ate meat on this visit. My friend and I ordered some wings and they could have stood to toss them in the sauce better. As it was, they were just drizzled with sauce. The BLT was really good, especially once I smothered it with mustard. Microbrews were few and far between, but they did carry Deschutes Black Butte, a great porter just recently available in Ohio.
Probably the highlight of the bar was the patio. If Columbus had more patios like this, that would be a good thing. It was really big and covered. An unused heater was present so they keep this patio open year round. That rules. It had its own bar and street lamps on the property to light it, plus fans for really hot days. A real stand out in such a small town.
