Ruby Tuesday

I have spent a fair amount of time at Ruby Tuesday. As a person in a band in Columbus I feel like it is a rite of passage- before you play pretty much anywhere you have to play Rubys. Not to say that it will be a good experience, many rites aren't...

Frankly, it is easy to get to play Ruby Tuesday- because few people WANT to play there. The sound is expensive and electrocutes you, there is no place to park, beer selection is as expected for a campus dive, the bathroom is really gross, the staff is not the nicest bunch, the bar only takes cash (although, looking at other reviews this may have changed- hopefully) and it is hard to drag people there to see you play (see above.)

I am normally not so harsh, and while I have some fond memories from the place it was certainly not the place I am fond of.  There are too many fabulous music venues in town to continue visiting this one.

Very friendly bar, decent selection. The atmosphere is nice. Not trying too hard to be anything it's not, and they have some nice cozy woodworking throughout.

They're not a cash-only bar anymore ($10 minimum for cards).

Any bar that has pitchers of strongbow for sale is a winner in my book.

This is NOT a "Ruby Tuesday."  It's a bar.  And just a bar.  A divey bar.  And if you take it for what it is, it's just fine.  It gets the job done, and drinks are cheap.  There's really not much more to say.
