Welcome to The Battleground

The Battleground Taproom and Mexican Kitchen specializes in traditional Mexican food — street tacos, churros, pozole, tamales, mole, empanadas, and other dishes representative of several regions of Mexico. This is not TexMex — every tortilla is handmade to order, the salsas made fresh daily. We also have a full bar serving a variety of cocktails and house margaritas and our own craft beer called Drink Your Values (DYV). DYV sales go to support organizations that are working on social, racial, and economic justice.

Amazing Mexican food, cocktails, and craft beer. Come and join us.

COVID-19 Safety

The health and safety of our guests and family of employees is our top priority. We are following all guidelines and recommendations from the Ohio Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Masks are required for employees and strongly encouraged for customers. Our kitchen and dining areas are sanitized according to best practices, we encourage outdoor dining when weather permits, and offer curbside pickup and delivery. Please call us if you would like your food delivered to your car for a takeout order.

We sincerely appreciate each and every one of you: thank you for supporting The Battleground!

Drink Your Values

Did you know that we brew our own beer? In partnership with Modern Methods Brewing Company, we’ve launched Drink Your Values (DYV) – a social, racial, and economic justice beer project available here at The Battleground and shipped via subscription all across the country.

Our flagship lineup is not only delicious locally-brewed beer, but every pint contributes to a cause. For example, Election Day IPA supports voter registration efforts here in Ohio; Si Se Puede Lager contributes to repairing our broken immigration system and keeping families together; and Cherry Street Cream Ale champions improvement efforts here on Kent’s South End.

Visit Drink Your Values to learn more about this exciting project, explore our full lineup of social justice craft beer, and buy some to take home or ship to friends and family!
