As a social justice taproom and Mexican kitchen, the desire to create a space where people meet for good beer, good food, and ground-breaking community building lies at the heart of all we do.
Real Mexican Flavors & Craft Beers
Welcome to The Battleground, where real Mexican food and premium craft beers fill the menu. From our handmade tortillas to our original pozole recipe, we promise you haven’t tasted Mexican cuisine like this before! Our atmosphere is classy enough to bring a date, but relaxed enough to enjoy craft beers and conversation with friends.
We’re also proud to be a social justice taproom. As such, we donate a percentage of sales of DYV (Drink Your Values) Ohio craft beers to intiatives that work to build a more just, inclusive community. If you’re passionate about addressing climate change, protecting voting rights, and building a community that works better for everyone, you’ve come to the right place.
Outdoor patios open, Curbside Pick-up, and Delivery
We’ve all been learning how to be safe during these times. We’ve added both a side patio and backyard patio. We now have as much outdoor seating as we previously had inside. Eating outside is the safest route if your planning to dine in (currently indoor dining is closed). Reservations are strongly encouraged but not mandatory. Our tables are 6 feet apart and please follow the State of Ohio’s guidelines on wearing masks.
We’ve also updated our menu to include new items like tamales made with mole and chicken, green salsa and pork, or a vegetarian tamal with squash and chayote (Mexican pear). And we are now able to sell Battleground Margaritas to go! Check out our cocktail menu and growlers of DYV Beer!
