8 Repurposed Buildings Around Ohio for Drinks or Dinner
As time marches on, many beautiful old buildings often end up destroyed or forgotten. Thankfully, not all of them meet this fate. Many businesses around Columbus, Cincinnati, and Northeast Ohio have turned historic buildings into thriving new bars and restaurants. Check out our list below for a few we know you'll want to check out.
Baltic Mill Winery
111 E. Main St., Baltic, OH 43804
The Baltic Mill Winery operates inside an old Amish flour mill from the early 20th century. Formerly repurposed as a gift shop and bulk goods store, the mill was finally converted into a winery in 2013. Many of the original chutes and machinery components are still intact and can be observed in the seating and tasting room, adding some extra historical interest to the guest experience.
The Baltic Mill is best known for their sweet wines, including their Little Daisy and Just Peachy varieties. Their best-selling variety is their blackberry wine, a local delicacy that sells out almost as quickly as it's produced. Be sure to ask if they have any in stock when you stop by.
Father John's Microbrewery
301 W. Butler St., Bryan, OH 43506
View this post on Instagram
Father John's Microbrewery was founded in 2013 in the remains of a stunning 19th-century parsonage. The new owners have taken advantage of the gorgeous high ceilings, distinctive windows, and wide-open spaces, turning the building into a bar and restaurant with AirBnB rooms available for guests who want to stay the night.
In their spacious bar and dining room, you can try one-of-a-kind brews like their Eye for an Eye Pale Ale, Garden of Eden Cream Ale, and brand-new Black Buffalo Vodka made from fresh Ohio corn. Stop by for lunch or dinner to enjoy dishes like mac and cheese, ribeye steaks, and deluxe charcuterie boards brimming with finger-food favorites.
Bell Tower Brewing Co.
Bell Tower Brewing Co. was founded by two hopeful entrepreneurs who wanted an exceptional building to house their exceptional brews. When they came across an old church in Kent, they knew they had found the right place. Whether you'd like to sit under the vaulted ceilings and old-fashioned chandeliers inside or enjoy the fresh air in the brewery's beer garden, this bar offers plenty of ambiance on top of its artisan stouts, ales, and lagers.
From the bright, slightly sweet tang of their Answered Prayers blackberry ale to the toasty caramel notes of their Pufferbelly steam beer, these brewers have something for everyone. Some of their brews are also available in gluten-reduced versions to help more people enjoy them. Hungry? Their soups, salads, sandwiches, and appetizers are sure to please your palate.
The Olde Jaol Steakhouse and Tavern
215 N. Walnut St., Wooster, OH 44691
View this post on Instagram
The Wayne County Sheriff's Office and Jaol was completed in 1865 and operated as a working police station and jail until 1977. After that, it was designated a Northeast Ohio historical site and was used to house several businesses, including the Olde Jaol Tavern and Steakhouse starting in 1995.
Many paranormal enthusiasts enjoy visiting the restaurant in hopes of spotting the ghosts that are rumored to haunt the premises. However, the excellent food is a big part of what's kept people coming back all this time. Diners can order gourmet salads, delectable sandwiches, and all kinds of grilled steaks and fish for a delicious and satisfying meal. If you only have time for a drink, the Olde Jaol's bar also offers a basic selection of beer, wine, and other beverages you can enjoy while spending time in this fascinating historical space.
Berea Depot Bar and Restaurant
The Berea Depot Bar and Restaurant was built inside an old sandstone train depot from 1876. Guests eat facing the tracks, and even though the trains no longer pass through here, it's still a hauntingly novel experience. The restaurant even offers catering and special reservations in the Pullman Car, an old train car that has been retrofitted to accommodate diners.
The restaurant's food is just as good as its atmosphere. Choose from dishes like their Baby Back Ribs and Hungarian Paprika Chicken, sandwiches like their Triple Stack Grilled Cheese and Turkey and Ham Club, or their specialty flatbreads; they're all delicious. There's also plenty of wine and beer on tap for you to enjoy alone or with a meal.
Boyd and Wurthmann Restaurant
4819 E. Main St., Berlin, OH 44610
View this post on Instagram
Originally a grocery store known as Hummel's Market from 1938-1945, Boyd and Wurthmann Restaurant has retained its quaint, old-fashioned charm since then. Many of the city's older residents love to stop in for one of the restaurant's locally famous 99c coffees every single morning.
In keeping with its old-fashioned roots, the restaurant serves a limited menu that changes every day of the week. Each day features hearty, comforting meals like roast turkey with mashed potatoes and dressing and beef-n-noodles with green beans or applesauce. Check out the menu online to see when your favorite dish is coming up next.
Ghost Baby
1314 Republic St., Cincinnati, OH 45202
Ghost Baby lounge was built in the underground tunnels that a local brewing company used to use to brew and age their beer back in the early 19th century. It takes its name from the sound of the workmen installing new lighting in the tunnels when the space was first repurposed several years ago. Now, it's one of the most trendy bars in the city, its luxurious yet eerie atmosphere setting the mood for many a night of fun.
The lounge features nightly live music from local jazz performers and lounge singers to entertain you while you mingle. You can order a variety of wines, spirits, and specialty cocktails. Whether you're in the mood for the bright and bubbly flavor of Tickled Pink or the smooth richness of Lifestyles of the Famous, there's something here you'll love sipping on throughout the night. Guests who come hungry can indulge in some handmade chocolates or nibble from a charcuterie board.
Jeff Ruby's Precinct
311 Delta Ave., Cincinnati, OH 45226
View this post on Instagram
In 1981, chef Jeff Ruby opened The Precinct in the building that used to serve as Cincinnati Patrol House 6. It has since become a major culinary attraction and was recently named one of America's Top 10 Steakhouses by USA Today.
This fine-dining restaurant uses nothing but the best ingredients in all of its dishes. As a top-tier steakhouse, they are best known for their savory U.S.D.A. prime steaks, premium filet mignon, and Japanese A5 wagyu beef. Other entrée options include roast chicken, lobster, and king crab. Pair each dish with one of their signature cocktails or fine wines, and cap off the experience with a delectable dessert.

8 Places for a Wine Slushie Around Northeast Ohio
Most people are familiar with frozen margaritas and daiquiris, but have you tried a wine slushie? It's a delicious mash-up of a Slurpee-like consistency combined with your favorite wine to create a deliciously sweet and icy treat. Slushies are an especially delicious way to cool off during the summer.
Try a wine slushie at the following eight spots around Northeast Ohio.
West Main St. Winery, Brewery & Cider House
234 W. Main St., Ravenna, OH 44266
At West Main Winery, Brewery & Cider House, all of their libations are made in-house using the finest ingredients from throughout the world. You'll find a variety of slushies to suit your tastes, and they all start as non-alcoholic versions until your favorite wine is added. Try the pomegranate, which uses nectar of the vine pomegranate frappe, mixed with Six Seeds Wine for a refreshing taste of summer. The Very Very Berry, with nectar of the peach mango frappe mix and peach wine, is also a customer favorite this time of year.
1875 Winery & Restaurant
109 State Route 44, Hartville, OH 44632
View this post on Instagram
Named after the year in which the barn it calls home was built, 1875 Winery & Restaurant has plenty of space in which to gather with friends and enjoy a slushie. The barn has three floors of dining area, and the winery and restaurant has two outside patios, two pavilions that sit on a lake, and more. You can even sit up in the silo or by a 24 feet tall, four-sided fireplace or a water wall. While you're there, order a slushie of one of their wines, such as the Drop'd Out, a sweet and fruity pink option, or the Gatsby, a semi-sweet red.
CLE Urban Winery
2180 Lee Rd., Cleveland Heights, OH 44118
CLE Urban Winery, located in the historic Cedar-Lee neighborhood, hand-crafts and bottles their wines onsite from premium grapes. You'll find the winery's atmosphere to be chic and interesting, so you'll be comfortable unwinding with a refreshing Frose Wine Slushie. Order a glass or carafe of three-plus glasses of the slightly sweet drink made with the winery's Rust Belt Rose. Or for some extra refreshment, try the Frose on Vacay slushie, which is topped with a floater of Malibu Coconut Rum. If you'd like some to take home, three varieties of Frose Wine Slushies—Hometown Heroes Peach Chardonnay, Rust Belt Rose, and Buckeye Blackberry Merlot—can be ordered for takeout.
Lost Trail Winery
5228 State St. NE, Canton, OH 44721
View this post on Instagram
You'll find Lost Trail Winery on 13 acres in Marlboro Township on the outskirts of Canton in a setting and building inspired by Adirondack camps in New York. Their wines are made from carefully chosen grapes and then hand-crafted in small batches. Favorites include Kienuka, a sweet wine that will remind you of the grape juice you drank as a child, and the Altitude, a dry Chardonnay with aromas of yellow apple, pineapple, cantaloupe, and more along with tastes of pear and peach. If you'd like to try one of their wines or a wine slushie made for the day from one of their signature wines, you might want to time your visit for when a band is playing to further increase the fun quotient.
Hans' Place
6011 Old Route 39 NW, Dover, OH 44622
A wine manufacturing facility, tasting room, and cafe, Hans' Place aims to offer something for everyone on the menu. One of its two outside decks is the perfect place to sit since it creates a natural amphitheater surrounded by hills and woods. Instead of looking out, you look up and see woods and a waterfall, so it's a great spot to take selfies with your friends. Order a white, red, or blush wine, or choose one from the large fruit and berry wines section. Blueberry, blackberry, peach, and strawberry are ideal for ordering as a slushie, either by the glass or pitcher. If you can't decide what you want, try a four- or six-glass flight of two ounces each before ordering.
Winery at Wolf Creek
2637 S. Cleveland Massillon Rd., Norton, OH 44203
View this post on Instagram
Winery at Wolf Creek lives up to its slogan of "wine, romance, and a view for miles." The beautiful setting feels like it's a world away, making it the perfect spot to enjoy mostly Ohio-grown wines. Bring a picnic or buy a cheese and cracker basket at the winery, cool off with a slushie, and spread out to enjoy the view. If you'd like to bring your dog along, visit from 5-8 p.m. from May-October, when pooches are welcomed on the patio, food trucks visit, and local rescues are supported.
Sunny Slope Winery
12251 OH-39, Big Prairie, OH 44611
Sunny Slope Winery has been a part of the community since 1927 and caters to wine connoisseurs as well as those just starting to expand their interest in wine. The small-batch, hand-crafted winery specializes in delicious fruit wines bottled right at the winery. Try the Big Prairie White, a light sweet moscato grape wine, or the peach, strawberry, or plum wines. Each is delicious on its own or in a refreshing slushie.
Nauti Vine Winery
3950 S. Main St., Akron, OH 44319
View this post on Instagram
If you're looking to relax with a wine slushie in hand, Nauti Vine Winery's cozy, laid-back atmosphere and great views of the Portage Lakes makes the perfect spot. The menu includes a nice number of reds and whites as well as a rose from Nauti Vine, and additional guest wine selections are also offered. If you need help finding a favorite, you can try three wine tastings for $5. Once you've made your choice, order it in a cold, refreshing slushie in a glass or a tumbler if you're feeling even more thirsty. Head outside to the brick patio on the lake, and enjoy the view along with your slushie and an appetizer like a meat and cheese plate.
Cheers!
Where will you visit to try a wine slushie this summer?

Drunch Eatery + Bar is an idea whose time has come. Why should brunch be relegated to weekends when it can be enjoyed the rest of the week just as well? The menu is loaded with whimsical items such as woahnuts, which are mini-waffle donuts, and Fruity Pebbles cheesecake. But there are also several favorite brunch staples, including chicken & waffles, crab cake benedict, and shrimp & grits. Hours are 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.
