Columbus and Ohio memorabilia and photographs decorate the walls of the newest eatery Downtown, giving it more atmosphere than places that decorate with stuff from a warehouse full of instant “antiques.”

The Tip Top Kitchen and Cocktails is laid out like a pub, with several darkly wooded seating areas. This is one of an increasing number of places that marry full bars (a dozen draft beers, lots of cocktails) with full menus.

The menu here — unabashedly American — even has a section of “Ohio comfort entrees.”

    It’s about time the tip top had some coverage – any place where you can get a cheap “two wheel special” Pabst Blue Ribbon followed by a shot of Patrón Citrónge should have had coverage months ago.

    +1 on the sweet potato fries.

    Also, if you haven’t eaten in a couple of days, the reuben will cure all your ills.

    Down-home cuisine has some kick

    Tip Top Kitchen has a way of taking homespun food and giving it zip.

    With green beans, for example, down-home restaurants usually get them from a can or, when they’re fresh or frozen, cook them to death.
