Good Food Late At Night


          As many of you know there are countless places to eat here at Ohio University.  We have the typical Wendy's and Chipotle that can be found in every city around the country.  There are also those little hidden gems that many students do not even realize we have here in Athens.  I've walked passed Uptown Grill countless times without stopping, probably because of their nontraditional style of serving food to the public.  Uptown Grill's unusual way of serving food is probably one of their best traits.  One that shows people a unique side of what Athens has to offer.  What other restaurant can you think of that will allow you to walk right up and have you food grilled to order right in front of you?  None and I know they’re still faster than any other fast food establishment in the Athens city limits. 
          One of the great benefits of Uptown Grill is their hours they are perfectly setup for the OU student on the go who might not have the time to sit down and eat their meal.  Their greatest creation in my opinion is their Chicken n' Waffle sandwich.  I would highly recommend trying one.  With their convent hours of Monday through Saturday 11-4 you are surely not going to miss out on a good lunch.  Their most notable hours are probably Thursday-Saturday from 10pm-3am.  They are able to capitalize on all of those students that are out wondering the streets of Athens having a little fun.  I can say that I've met some pretty funny characters out front of Uptown Grill late at night, that are always willing to share a good laugh.  Uptown Grill also has that great location for your late night hunger if you are a student who just might happen to lives on west green.
          So the next time you feel hungry after a long night out on the town, make sure to swing by Uptown Grill located on 11 West Union Street.
