In 1997 a small neighborhood bar and grill that dabbled in live music opened in Powell, OH. With a goal to offer such a relaxing atmosphere that caused anyone walking in to “change colors” from the hectic outside, the name chosen was The Lazy Chameleon. To reach that goal required live music and a great seafood menu. Once inside, you will realize the original goal continues to offer a chance to relax, socialize and listen to outstanding live music. The Lazy Chameleon is now recognized as one of the premier offerings for live music in Central Ohio.

Combine the Thursday, Friday and Saturday evening live bands and groups with the restaurant and bar, and enjoy an outstanding, fun atmosphere. Dancing, live music and award winning seafood continues to change attitudes and “colors”.

The Lazy Chameleon is an award winning offering. Awards such as “Best Seafood” and “Best Margaritas”  are constantly nominated by various voters. Changing specials such as “Rib Night” and “All You Can Eat Crablegs” are crowd favorites.

One of the best appetizer menus available in Central Ohio starts menu selections with offerings such as Maryland Crabcakes, Peel and Eat Shrimp, Fried Calamari, Jalapeno’s Stuffed with Crab, Buffalo Shrimp and  Spinach Artichoke Crab Dip.

Follow your chosen appetizer with a selection from their “Surf and Such” menu section. Mouth watering Loco Coconut Shrimp, Coastal Crabcakes, Cajun Pasta Alfredo, Chicken Capriese, Mesquite Mahi Mahi, Dockside Scallops, Steak Oscar and Fish and Chips are seafood winning recipes.

Small plates, such as Border Quesadillas, Margarita Pizza and Blacken Scallops are as well prepared for additional choices. Perhaps just a sandwich, such as the Sunset Chicken on Focaccia, Mesquite Mahi Mahi, Smokin Blues Burger, Open Face Steak or a Son of the Son of a Cheeseburger might make your evenings choice while enjoying the live music.  Every selection always goes great with a cold beer or a surfin Margarita.

Band names and showtimes are listed on their website, as well as a sampling of the great sounds. Need a break, want to socialize, savor excellent seafood, hear live music; slip in and “change color” at The Lazy Chameleon.

Claddagh Irish Pub Of Polaris is the perfect place for a pint! Just wait until you walk in from the Polaris area and, as soon as you enter, relax; you’re in the heart of Ireland. Start by ordering a Guinness and review the menu for some traditional Irish fare.

The decor will have you feeling like your in your own castle of Ireland. As soon as you enter, you will believe your Irish..

Their full service bar offers an excellent selection of authentic Irish beers and whiskeys. The menu offers an array of appetizers and meals.

COMMENTS:

1. We had the Jameson Drunken Steak (Grilled marinated flank steak, aged white cheddar, sauteed mushrooms, crispy onion straws and Jameson Irish whiskey glaze.) Served with Champ mashed potatoes & vegetables. At $19.00, it’s a full meal.

2. The experience at the Claddagh Irish Pub was fun in a unique way. We will definitely return just to try something new. We want to invite some friends and experience more of Ireland tradition and hospitality. Cheers for this pub!!
