Wesley's Bar & Grill

The crown jewel of Downtown bars. Killer beer selection, cheap drinks, awesome patio, neighborhood feel, lots of character. Wesley's rules.

The Freakjazz Ensemble on Thursdays, and Old School Fridays DJ nights are each superb, in very different ways. Most every other night of the week, it's just a great, chill neighborhood bar. Happy hour is always a good time to stop in too, a great way to unwind from work. Be sure to say hi to Laurie, the bartendress.

I really enjoy having a few beers at Wesley's.  The crowd varies depending on what time and day you're there.  The after work crowd is older with lawyers, judges, and other downtown workers.  Late nights tend to be a younger crowd.  It really doesn't matter the age though, because all are friendly.  The beer selection is awesome and not too expensive.  Drinks as a whole are relatively cheap.  As mentioned before the patio is a true gem.  The back bar is a nice place to have a private party or to simply escape the music on weekend night's if you so choose.  All in all it's a pretty good place to have some drinks with friends.

Great bar with a real neighborhood feel to it. Reminds of a few bars in college that were a solid mix of grad students and townies. The beer selection is great, I was there one evening for an open bar event and tried nearly a dozen and they carry from the typical to the hard to find. I think they had maybe three or four other beers on tap (ranging from miller lite to magic hat). Wesley's is in the "uptown" area of Toledo, so just right outside of the downtown arenas. This means it's going to be a bit of a walk if you're coming from one of the areas. You can usually find parking on the street nearby and even though the area is pretty deserted at night I've never had a problem walking a few blocks from where I live. Every time I've been here there has been a decent crowd and again like I said a good mix of people. This is the type of bar you wished was on the corner of your block. Possibly the best part of the bar is the back patio. Great area with a ton of chairs (type of area with Christmas lights year round) and some corn hole sets. This isn't the cheapest place in the world to drink, but not awful. Also the men's bathroom is a little more than a closet, so make sure your ready for a few awkard moments with other occupants. Overall a really nice place to kick back and drink in Toledo.
