A Guy Walks Into 365 Bars…Again! Bar Number 243: Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming

by MBIP


I was looking around for bars online and came across a place in Chillicothe called, Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming. I’ve been to Chillicothe many times and don’t recall ever seeing this place.

Well, all that will change tonight as we travel to Chillicothe and we’ll not only have a look at Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming, we’ll have a drink or two…or maybe three there!

Okay, it’s off to Chillicothe we go!

Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming, Thursday, October 22, 2026

Here we are at Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming…hey, check out the sign, how did they know we were going to stop by?

The photos on the windows are all pictures of Las Vegas, very cool!

The arrow knows the way to go and there’s tables and chairs outside but I think we’ll go inside and see what’s happening.

When you enter, you’re greeted by a Las Vegas-styled welcome sign. I’m starting to see a theme here!

I see a corner of the bar as we enter…let’s go around and take a look at the bar in all of it’s entirety.

This is a cool bar in here and there’s plenty of open seats.

Let’s grab one and get settled in for the evening and see who’s tending bar tonight in here.

Amanda is the pretty and friendly bartender in here this evening.

We had a nice conversation about Chillicothe, New York and other topics. She said she’s worked here about four years and said the owners of Heather’s are really nice people.

There’s the back of this cozy bar in here.

There’s tables and chairs opposite the bar.

Here’s the gaming room area in the back of the bar for all of you gamblers out there.

They also serve food in here and the dining room is right over here. Let’s go take a look.

Wow, it’s very nice in here and there’s there’s another bar over there and there’s the specials and events that happen in here, including a Sip, Sip and Solve night happening on October 28.

Even though I’m drinking beer, this is a wine bar and as you can see, they are very well stocked with a huge selection of bottles of wine!

The Drinks

In spite of all the wine offerings, I had two bottles of Budweiser and a Busch NA beer during my visit to Heather’s Wine Nook & Video Gaming.
