Ormsby’s

Score one more point for the Westside. This part of the city keeps collecting quality restaurants, but its latest addition is something we’ve wanted more of: a solid all-purpose hangout spot. There are plenty of places to get good food in the city, but Ormsby’s stands out with not only food and drink, but shuffle board, pool tables, darts and indoor bocce – all in a no pretence but well designed tavern atmosphere.

Although it’s only been open a few weeks and still smoothing out the rough spots, Ormsby’s has potential to become a local favorite. The two level joint features a basic wood and brick restaurant and bar upstairs, while the center steps lead to a cavernous pub with games and televisions that will likely become a popular after work and late night lair. Beyond the cool space and features, it also has an above average craft beer selection and progressive bar food, including hand dipped corn dogs and all kinds of bangers and links. Ormsby’s is tucked away in the bottom of the White Provision building.
