Brown Street down by campus has a lot of options. Milanos is a good choice for bar food, pizza and sports.
Why do you care so much?

Something a little different, Bourbon Grille on Brown St. Go solely for the food, not the atmosphere.
beat me too it, it's been awhile since I've been in there...MISS Freddie Kramer, who passed now a couple of years ago... Drink a quart and have some shelled peanuts if you head in there...... and you might be surprise , that former Dayton Flyers basketball players might be in the joint!!!

Move state back to Columbus. Dayton is a youth team compared to Columbus on this subject.

It's kind of away from UD but the Oregon district near downtown has some good places to eat and drink and it is only a 5 or 10 minute drive to UD. Thai 9 was always my favorite.

It's a far different experience than the Schott, but just hop in your car after the game that's parked nearby and head down toward Brown Street. Milano's is a good spot, but tons of other options.
Stay in Columbus pompous fool. Dayton is a great host you will miss the fun.
I'm not sure why people are still complaingin about this? UD Arena is 10x better than the Schott, and I'm there to watch games not get hammered in the bars between games. My adult sons/I have had no problem finding new places to eat between games. And the move to Dayton means an hour longer drive for me, and I still prefer Dayton.
In the Oregon District: Dublin Pub, great Irish bar with great fish and chips.
Pine Club steakhouse is great... 5 minute drive from UD arena. Old school, cash only. Actually you used to be able to pay by check but I am not sure they still do that.
Tanks. 5-10 minutes from UD arena. NOt sure if it is still open. Just a good bar with good food.
Mama DiSalvos- 15-20 minute drive but great mom and pop Italian! worth the drive if you are skipping a game or need to kill some time.

Donatos I believe. And Lee's chicken. Unless they changed it since last year.
Not sure what all will be open but at UD games they also have some other good things. Burgers, chicken sandwiches, sausages....I even think they have po'boys at one stand.

Old Scratch Pizza is 3 minute drive from UD Arena. Really good pizza and a nice selection of beer.
Parking is limited though.

Dayton
Located in mid-town Dayton, our flagship location has been a downtown favorite since 2016. Our Neapolitan-style pies are quickly crafted in wood-burning ovens set in an open warehouse-like environment and paired with a 125-seat dining room and 32-seat private dining room.
