Barrel 33

"Barrel 33: A Mixed Bag Our dinner at Barrel 33 in Howland, Ohio, was a bit of a rollercoaster. The appetizer round was a highlight, with the Asian cauliflower bites and chicken wings impressing us. However, the buffalo chicken bites and hot pepper in oil fell short of our expectations. Unfortunately, the main courses weren't as satisfying. The pork Mac and cheese and barbecue burgers received lukewarm reviews from our group. It seemed like a missed opportunity for such a promising start. On a brighter note, the dessert was an absolute showstopper. The cinnamon sugar pretzel, topped with icing, chocolate strawberries, whipped cream, and blueberries, was a decadent and unforgettable treat. It was undoubtedly the best part of our meal. While the appetizers were a strong point, the main courses and a couple of appetizers left something to be desired. The dessert, however, redeemed the experience to a certain extent."

"This is a little hidden gem in Howland. I had been eyeballing it for a while so we decided to come in for a girls date. Our server was awesome. I ordered a drink at first that just wasn’t my thing, and that was of no fault of the bartender I just stepped outside of what I usually go for and the bourbon as I should have expected tasted like old leather. The server was so nice about it and made me feel less bad about sending it back. I ended up drinking my friends sangria instead and she ordered a different drink too. Our food was great! The truffle fries appetizer hit the spot. I had the salmon stir fry and my friend got the burger. Both were delicious. We ended our lunch by splitting a brownie sundae. The brownie was gooey and perfect. I feel like you can truly tell how good a restaurant is by how they take care of their restroom areas. This place is selfie ready! The bathroom wallpaper is friggin adorable and I’ll spare you guys all the selfies, but please note I took probably 50 pictures in there because it was so cute. In my experience every time I’ve gone somewhere and the bathrooms nice you will never walk out of there unimpressed. The owners take pride in every facet of the business and I take NOTE, too. I’ve sent a few friends in since I visited in the beginning of May. I’ll definitely be back to try out more of the menu soon!"

"Went on a Friday night just recently. I had salmon bites. It was fabulous. Also had the cauliflower appetizer. Great! My husband had fish & chips. He wasn't impressed with the fish. Both pieces exactly same size. (Frozen fish) Waitress was great. Atmosphere great."

"We’ve eaten at Barrel 33 twice since they reopened and each time was great! The truffle fries and the Oklahoma Onion Burger are well worth the over hour drive for us. Best smash burger I’ve had. Also the drinks are SO good. Definitely recommend."

"First time visiting, so I can’t compare the old vs new ownership, but I definitely enjoyed myself. Mike and the other gentleman bartender made me feel welcome, both were super attentive and they crafted great cocktails. My food was pretty tasty and the vibe was nice inside. John the owner came out and introduced himself and made sure I was enjoying myself. Very nice guy. I live in Boardman, but will definitely be back soon!"
