Long overdue for this review. Friend and I stopped at Robert James on our way to the bourbon trail from Columbus, Ohio. Was very surprised by the delicious tater tots, wings (OMG) and chill vibe. Their bourbon was decent too. It's a small micro distillery and you can see the entire distillation and bottling process which is neat. This is a small gem that I would like to see existing for a very long time.

Great food! Amazing food. We came for the whisky and we were blown away by the great tasting food. Best wings. The service is wonderful. The owner of the bar is so friendly and engaging. I’ve not seen such raw passion for delivering a great experience for his customers. Go for the whisky. Go for the great food - or both!

Delicious WELL MADE drinks and amazing BBQ! You honestly can't go wrong at this place. Make sure to park in the rear because that's where the front door is. Awesome atmosphere in this place!
