Great hole in the wall joint. Have eaten here several times now. Prices are incredibly low, efficient & consistent service every time. One of the few places you can still get a thick bologna sandwich too. Hubby loves Benji boy-girl burger. Lots of toppings & very filling.

I've dined twice now, and both times were a hit. I walk over every time I get my car worked on at the Good Guys shop and have a beer. Both times, I've sat there long enough to build up an appetite. Had the same bartender both times and she's really a nice woman. She's a little older but goes as quick as she can, puts your food order in right away, and checks back with you in a timely manner. My first time in, she explained that they're known for their Benji burgers and explained the difference between the three, which I appreciated. Not a lot of people care like she seemed to. I ordered the cube steak sandwich and added the grilled peppers and onions. Holy cow! Almost literally! That piece of beef was so clean tasting. The texture was so soft, almost buttery. The bartender told me they buy all their meat locally from Al's, and after that burger, you can really tell that they do. It was delicious. My second time dining, I started with the fried mushrooms. Typical dive bar fried mushrooms. Nothing to rave about, but still good. For my meal, I ordered the club on wheat bread. MAN.. when I say this club was delicious, that's a complete understatement. They use roast beef instead of turkey, which I loved. Added a bit of saltiness. I asked for a side of pickles and even those were amazing. Great flavor and crunch. I highly recommend the club sandwich here. Get it to-go if you don't want to dine in. It's worth it!

Local dive with a bright and kitschy vibe. It’s odd but fun. The staff are very friendly. The older lady who owns the place is too! The burgers are cheap, but they taste cheap too -not a bad thing, but don’t expect much. The food is decent and the beer is cold. Everything is a good price. I will be back

I’m new to the area and stopped by yesterday for lunch because of all the good reviews and Draft House DID NOT disappoint. If you enjoy hole in the walls then you should really consider visiting. The staff were friendly and explained everything on the menu for me. Had a great conversation with other patrons and the whole experience was wonderful. I ordered the Benji boy-girl burger which may sound a little strange when you first read what it comes with but it hit all the right spots on my tastebuds. After my great experience yesterday I think I plan on just going down the list to try everything.

Are you sick of paying $15! for a hamburger?This place is for you. It’s been an institution for over 50 years. It features diner-style food with a full-bar. Food is delicious and prices are cheap. The kitchen can take awhile if they’re super busy. Won’t impress foodies, but a solid Midwest meal. My only boomer comment: the jukebox is extremely loud!

Ridiculously cheap prices here! Burgers for less than $10. Draft beers for $2! I mean how can you say no to coming here?? Ok, maybe not the best burger and beer place for foodies but if you're just looking for a place to hangout and enjoy time with people, this is the place. I felt like I was being served by my friend's aunt/mom/Grandma there haha cause they were all so friendly. From the pictures on the wall the owner (I assume) LOVES dogs a lot. Biggest complaint is that the music is waaaaay too loud and gotta yell over all that to order food or just have a conversation. Also, wish they had a list of what they have on draft or types of drinks they got. Only menu is very simple. Would definitely come back if we're craving for cheap and convenient food.

8/7/25, about 11:30 am: super friendly, fast service from Tonya. Delicious American cheese bacon burger, onion rings, truth ipa draft beer. Fresh ingredients. I felt welcome and served a home cooked meal! Can't wait to go back my next trip to Newark from Pittsburgh/Columbus! Hope to see "yinz" soon!
