Downtown Newark - Newark, OH Area Guide
From Columbus, Ohio, travel about 25 miles east to reach Downtown Newark, Ohio. This central Ohio neighborhood features a diverse economy and excellent housing options, including apartments and condos for rent. As the county seat of Licking County, Newark retains the small-town feel from its founding in 1802, and Owens Corning Fiberglass, Holophane, and other major businesses call it home. Downtown locals gather on the town square at the courthouse, a classic 1876 Second Empire-style building, and at the county library on West Main Street. When downtown residents want a great flame-broiled burger, steak or a salad, they head to Draft House, a West Main Street favorite for 40 years. At Park Place Bistro, locals get their fill of shrimp, grits, veggie salads, and hearty portions of carrot cake. For good food with entertainment, locals head to Tony's Bar, another popular West Main nightlife hangout. With its 1950s-style decor, this dive bar showcases local musicians.
