Water Street tavern has the best patrons in the world! They are extremely good looking, highly intelligent, and love to booze! WTS offers so much in regards to atmosphere that patrons have been known to be very loyal. In fact, their most famous patron is rumored to be traveling from out of state just to witness the unprecedented advances WTS has made in watering-hole-induced-happiness! There is seemingly a constant stream on coolness that flows from WTS. That coolness can only be found in the mirrors that line WTS walls...

I love Water Street Tavern, and it's expanding! Rumor is another bar, a stage for live acts, a full menu kitchen, and more. Can't wait...

Great "hometown" bar, clean, fun and very community minded. You are never a stranger at the Water Street Tavern!

The Water Street Tavern always has extremely nice, funny bartenders and door guys on staff that it makes the experience of getting drunk that much more enjoyable. In my opinion, there's nothing like watching a bartender dance around while making your drink, just to try to make you laugh.

Only bar in Kent with the blue and gold Kent State pride. The hottest, nicest and fastest bartenders. Cleanest bathrooms that I have ever seen in a bar. They always have great shows, events and drink specials. The owner is an awesome guy who is active in the community as well as the university. He holds university events and charity events, such as a bachelor auction in which he auctioned off his male employees with 100 percent of the proceeds going to Big Brothers and Sisters of Portage County. The bar is always a good time and the staff is so welcoming and friendly. It is, quite honestly, the best bar I have ever been to--and trust me I've been to many bars ;O)
