Nothing beats the summer heat quite like an ice cold beer (or if you’re really hot, a few ice cold beers!).

If you’re looking for some summer fun, why not pick a neighborhood, do a bar crawl, and explore a little Dayton? First up: Dayton’s Belmont neighborhood. Here are some great choices to get you started.

Slyder’s Tavern

836 Watervliet Ave., Dayton
(937) 258-1222 | www.slyderstavern.com | Facebook

Slyder’s is known for their hamburgers, so this a great place to grab a bite to eat to kick off the bar crawl!

Flicks Tavern

707 Watervliet Ave., Dayton
(937) 252-6727 | Facebook

Next is Flicks Tavern, where the walls are lined with great memorabilia from many years ago. These people love their customers and it shows – their table tops are covered in photos of their regulars!

Red Carpet Tavern

3301 Wayne Ave., Dayton
(937) 258-9521 | https://www.redcarpettavern.com/ 

After a little walk, stop in at Red Carpet Tavern. If it’s the weekend, try their famous fish sandwich! Or if you’re not that hungry, Red Carpet has some of the frostiest beer around.

Carmichael’s Pub

3011 Wayne Ave., Dayton
(937) 258-6058 | Facebook

Ready to play some pool, grab a snack, or enjoy a drink special? Carmichael’s is the place for rounding out a perfect Belmont bar crawl.
