Martini bars are plentiful in Ohio.
The Midwestern state of Ohio is home to great natural beauty, thanks in part to the presence of Lake Erie's coastline, the Ohio River and the glaciated Allegheny Plateau. Visitors to Columbus, the capital of Ohio, will find plenty of cultural attractions and nighttime activities. Night owls visiting the city will have little trouble finding a unique martini bar to spend an evening in. Martini bars can also be found in other Ohio cities.
