Jackie O's Public House & Brewpub

Wonderful burgers and brews in a fun atmosphere! Tonight I had the Jalapeno Chomolungma Burger (pictured) paired with the Flash Frame draft. The burger came out medium just as I ordered it with a good spice and lots of flavor, if a bit messy. I enjoyed the Flash Frame as an easy brew for dinner. We also had fried pickles and reuben bites as appetizers that I recommend too. We always enjoy Jackie O's when we visit Athens Ohio, it's a can't miss stop!

A nice place to go if you enjoy craft beer and want to avoid going uptown. Very friendly and welcoming staff. They also sell hand made cutting boards from a local artist that are quite amazing

Visited on a busy Friday night. Took about 40 minutes to get a table for 2 but the staff were very cool about it. Our waitress Ariel made great beer recommendations and provided quick, friendly service. We tried the fried cheese curds and a couple burgers and all the food was fresh, hot, and delicious. Definitely worth the wait.

Jackie Os is our go-to spot for lunch or dinner when visiting our son in Athens. The food and service are good and there is a nice selection of craft beers. The only thing I’ve noticed is there is a wait no matter what time of day or how crowded (or not) the restaurant is. We visited on a Friday at 1:30 pm and there were several empty tables and we were told there’d be a 20 minute wait. I’d rather be seated to have a drink and have a longer wait for food than stand around and look at 6 empty tables.

30 taps of fantastic, local beer. Great service. A terrific sports selection. Good food. Reasonable prices. The sole complaint I have is that it's not a secret so it can get crowded, and that's a good thing.

In Athens? Go there. Nearby? Go there. Within driving distance? Go there.
