The Battleground Taproom and Mexican Kitchen

Unique place and food. Lots of beer choices. Margaritas are unique but pricey. Lots of tequila choices. Service was just ok and long wait times for food. A little pricey for the portion size. Recommended

Off the beaten path and about five minutes from downtown Kent. Absolutely worth going out of the way. This is hands down the best Mexican restaurant in Ohio. If you have travelled around the country or have been to Mexico, you will be grateful to have stumbled on to this place. This place is five stars all around -- the food, the drinks, the atmosphere.

We had entrees and tacos -- both were amazing. The cocktails are made with fresh juices and home made syrups. The owner also visited our table which was a nice touch. The interior is classy and a surprise given the building is a little underwhelming from the outside.

We will be back. And a word to others on this platform... it is embarrassing to expect or demand "free chips and salsa" and demand that Mexican food be cheap. Mexican food is a cuisine like any other -- and it is amazing when it is done well. Don't act like someone from Ohio who has only been to Chi-Chi's.

I was previously living in Chicago, so I have really high expectations for tacos, and this is one of the few places I like. It’s pricer than other taco places, but it’s worth it for the extra quality they put in the ingredients. I was absolutely blown away by the drink flight presentation. This would be an amazing place for a date night, if you’re looking to impress someone.

It’s a little off the beaten path, and I probably would have never even have thought to give this place a try, if it wasn’t recommended to me, but I’m so glad I did.

Amazing restaurant - great ambience, authentic food, unique cocktails and an exciting menu make this a terrific choice for high end Mexican food. The patio is beautiful and the service is great! Best of all spending your dollars on beer here supports social justice causes in Ohio!
