Take a stroll downtown on Walnut Street and as you approach the Aronoff Center, you’ll begin to hear the faint sound of Scottish bagpipe music. You’ll also spot a man standing on the sidewalk in a kilt--there you’ve reached Nicholson’s Tavern and Pub. After you’ve greeted the plaid-clad gentleman, walk inside and admire the high ceilings, gorgeous, large wooden bar and the surrounding intimate and cozy booths. Grab a stool and thumb through the extensive beer and scotch menu – owners of Nicholson’s traveled from pub to pub throughout England and Scotland to create a list of imported beers and fine scotch you won't find anywhere on this side of the Atlantic. Make sure to get the full pub experience by ordering Nicholson’s shepherd’s pie or bangers and mash.
