The bank of TVs above the outdoor bar at JT’s Pizza, Pub and Patio attracted a modest-sized but animated crowd on a recent Sunday afternoon. The jersey-clad assemblage were treated to the Bengals snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in a strange game against Green Bay that featured woeful displays of highly paid athletes unable to make routine kicks. JT’s Pizza, Pub and Patio’s very name hints that it’s a great fit for 2021 Midwestern sensibilities. Sure enough, the Linworth-area establishment excels at providing many central Ohioans with what they really want: consistently good pizzeria and pub fare with crispy and zesty notes; abundant indoor and outdoor seating near sports-beaming TVs and Keno screens; speedy service; beverage bargains and specials galore; plus enough homemade premium ranch dressing to soothe legions of disappointed Ohio sports fans.
