Some ideas: Downtown-ish: dublin pub - Irish Pub type place, lots of different drinks, not bad food. thai9 - Thai foodpretty good stuff. In the Oregon district. My friend owns a small Thai restaurant also if peeps are into Thai. Marion's Pizza - Great Dayton pizza. Have cheapish beers / pitchers. Away from Downtown: bar louie - tuesday is $1 burger night and discount pints till 7 adobe gillas - fun mexican theme'd bar, sometimes dead - also have tues specials. brio - nicer italian food
