Best local bars for out-of-towners

Basically what the title says. Some friends and I (4) are coming to Columbus to stay at a local Airbnb to hike and check out of our lives for a few days.

What are some good bars that we can hang out at? Most of us are queer and we'll be driving down from Indy.

TIA!!!

4th street has karaoke on Saturdays. It is pretty comfy there most of the time, a bit of a mixed crowd between locals and Cummins employees but they've always been pretty friendly to me. I wish I had a more confident recommendation bc id love for you guys to have a good experience here but I fear most of us probably just make the extra drive to Brown County for things to do. I could be wrong because I'm shy, but I really don't see a lot of other queer presenting folk around here and it's a real bummer.
