Temperance Row Brewing

The sandwich was good .I had a side salad instead og chips. My food was good. Service was great. My husband had a porter which was good but his sandwich was bland. The figaboutit. Prosciutto was tough. and his side of chips were cooked at too low of a temperature and were flat. Needs salt. My brother in law ordered a bitter beer and it was flat. Over all I won’t go back. I’ll go to Wolfridge next time

They have good beers here. I got a flight of their summer wheat, pilsner, Scottish ale, IPA, and Baltic porter. All were pretty good solid beers. I was pretty impressed with their beers. Sometimes it is hit or miss when getting a flight but these were all pretty good. Service could use a little improvement but overall decent. They are located in the same location as Uptown Deli and Brew. You actually walk through the deli to get to the bar if your parked on the main street. If you are out this way visiting, it is worth a stop.

Ok. Beer was good. Overpriced, but good. Got the Fresh chips app and cheese curds. Chips were not even warm. Not sure how that’s fresh! Curds were good, not great. Very limited menu of deli sandwiches. Got the frenchy — soo dry, and very little flavor. Potato salad also had little flavor.
Overall. Very overpriced mediocre food at best.

I have been to this restaurant a few times and I have to say that each experience has been exceptional.
The atmosphere of the bar are is very conducive to having conversations with your group. The patio is a good size and makes for a wonderful afternoon location to knock back a couple in the sun.
The beers themselves are excellent, I always recommend the stout (when you can get it). They offer a couple of their beers in a nitro variety, while it makes for a nice variation, I’ll take CO2 any day.
The food is very good, and comes in large portions. I know my wife is a big fan of the Cheese curds. Most selections are pretty heavy, so plan and taking a box home!
What else is there to say? Great beer, great atmosphere, great food!

Spoiler alert: This is only a brief review of the brewery, not the deli up front. Temperance Row is the brewery attached to the Uptown Deli. It’s all one business, you can order beer in the front with a sandwich, or a sandwich in the rear with your beer.
Columbus has really stepped up their brewery game these past few years and Temperance Row Brewing is no exception. A hidden gem in the uptown Westerville district, this is a can’t-miss for any local craft beer aficionado. They usually have 5 – 8 beers on draft and you can do a beer flight of their regular 5. Plus there is a seasonal or two on draft (Oktoberfest hits in about one week, but the Porter has just about run dry!)
I’ve enjoyed most of their beers (some seasonal IPAs are better than others, usually a good porter, and their pilsner and scottish ales are good) and I look forward to trying more seasonals.
The atmosphere created in the tap room is just about perfect. It’s a small space, but for those lucky enough to get a seat in here, it feels right at home. The bartender and other servers are knowledgeable about and proud of their beer. The décor on the walls is great and behind the bar, you’ll see the tanks, which is a detail I enjoy every time I see it at a brewery.
The fact that it’s a deli restaurant also helps this place, because I don’t feel like I need to dress to the nines for a night out. In fact, last time I went, I was in sandals, a T-​shirt, and cargo shorts. It’s your local neighborhood craft brewery I like it that way!

Stopped by the brewery on Saturday around 2pm and truly enjoyed this place. The weather was absolutely gorgeous so they had the front and back garage style doors opened. It allowed for a nice breeze and kept the place nice and comfortable. I had the Summer wheat, my sister had the Scofflaw Scottish Ale (poured by nitro) and my mom had the Watermelon wheat. All three of the beers where outstanding. The brew master, Scott Francis, was there and he stopped by and discussed the different varieties of beer currently on tap. For lunch we started with the hot olive bowl and the village bruschetta. I’m in love with the village bruschetta — it’s made with Ajvar (which is a roasted red pepper and eggplant spread) and one of my favorite spreads. I definitely recommend that you try if you have never had the opportunity too. We shared the Reuben with chips and it was prepared and tasted wonderful. I read that some thought the prices were over the top — I definitely didn’t think that but too each their own.

Temperance Row Brewing is a neat asset to Westerville! It’s definitely different from the other restaurant offerings.
The appetizers were pretty tasty (try the cheese curds and housemade chips) and the food came out quickly. The beers themselves are okay, but not remarkable — a little overpriced for central Ohio craft beer as well. Come for the ambiance!

Temperance row has a selection of house brews that are delicious and on point to the styles. I found the beers, particularly the french-​oaked IPA, to be very enjoyable– mostly because it was well-​balanced, complex, but not «in your face» like a lot of the breweries now days. The styles are more approachable, which might be a good thing in Westerville.
The food was great, and there are some creative options on the menu. Expect $ 10 – 12 for a big sandwich. The cheese curds didn’t quite have that Wisconsin squeak, but were great nonetheless.
The patio had a nice ambiance, and could be great for a summer hangout with friends.
The beer price seems a little high, given that most of the beers are on the lighter side.

Great sandwich, nice patio. Beer — meh. I understand that not everybody wants to brew an IPA — but then don’t call it an IPA and say it’s not hoppy. Or at least offer a real IPa on guest tap.

My in-​laws were in town and wanted to pay for my drinks, so why not go on a binge? We happened to be in Westerville, so it was perfect timing to check out TR. The space is great. The front half is a deli, which I’ve heard from everyone is great. There are a few booths and small tables and a large deli case. Behind that is the bar. Long concrete bar with tons of bar seating, some of the most I’ve seen in a bar lately (which is good, because there are very few tables away from the bar). The space is nicely lit and has good music playing. You can see through the glass wall at the back out onto the patio, which is large and looks inviting.
The beer wasn’t really my style. Scott Francis is the godfather of Columbus brewing, but isn’t my favorite brewer. Everything is mild and malt-​forward, which goes against today’s trends. I’ll give him credit for sticking to his guns and going against the tide. They’re not badly made – in fact, they’re right on for their styles. They’re just not my thing. There’s a full bar and other beers in bottles if you want to drink something different.
It’s a ways out from the city, further than I’d go for most tap rooms. If you’re in the area or you’re a huge fan of English-​style malty beers, it’s worth checking out. It’s worth going once for the cool space alone. I probably won’t be a regular, but it’s great for the NE side of town.

Where better to drink a beer but where temperance movement began? Aww dry westerville.
This is a perfect addition to westerville (and columbus as a whole). Lots of character with a wood/​metal feel at the bar overlooking the brewery. The Pilsner was perfect for me. Hubby went Scottish and IPA.
Here is where they win, two things done well: beer and sandwiches. What’s not to love?
Started w an order of cheese curds, I was given glares by hubby when I stole the last two. Perfection.
Had the turkey chive w chips, hubby the Main Street. I’m not a big fan of corned beef, but found it delish.
My only minor-​ish of criticism is that maybe the deli case could be smaller to accommodate more tables. It is merchandised perfectly. When we walked in and saw the sandwiches and beers I knew we had to eat here despite the longish wait.
Also the patio (albeit snow covered now) looks awesome. Owners of Jimmy v’s and Jimmy v’s know how to do a patio.
Westerville proud!

neat little spot for uptown Westerville, but was not overly impressed with this place. It was a lot of families the night I went, and the beer was mediocre. I think all the beers I tried were on nitro, which I’m not at all a fan of. Way to make a ruin a good IPA, by making it frothy and foamy. It was an ok experience, but I wouldn’t rush to go back.

Great new place to grab a beer in uptown Westerville. Very hip and trendy! I particularly enjoyed their Scottish beer and Christmas Ale. We will definitely be back!

Good beer and good sandwiches albeit limited menu. They have plenty of TVs for games and special events. The décor is great and they have a little bit of a speakeasy feel walking through the deli. All in all a great place for Westerville! I’m excited to see they’re outdoor area when the weather warms up.

Temperance Row is destined to be a Westerville landmark.
The Beer — There are 6 different beers made on-​site. The Christmas Ale and IPA are Nitro beers. This was new for me but blew me away. The creamy deliciousness goes on for days. The Scottish Ale is also amazing.
The Food — I have only tasted a couple apps but I’ve been impressed. The Macedonian Bruschetta is the best I’ve ever had. More to come…
The Vibe — There are garage doors on the front and back of the place. There is a large patio with a fire pit in the back, bar in the middle and a deli/​country market in the front. It is locally owned and operated and the staff is down to earth and fun.
I have to admit I’m biased because this is close to home but I’m pumped about this place!
