Retailer Spotlight: Bargos Grill & TapMiamisburg-Centerville, DaytonBargos Grill & Tap opened its doors in March 2001. Its Miamisburg-Centerville location in Dayton is its flagship site. Bargos operates two restaurants in Dayton, including a second near the University of Dayton. Bargos has a site in Cincinnati and just recently opened its fourth grill and tap in Fairfield, which its owners built from the ground up.
Bargos became a licensed Ohio Lottery retailer during the Ohio Lottery’s launch of Keno in 2008. It’s in the top 1% of Keno retailers in the Dayton region.
“It’s a casual, fun, friendly place to hang out,” says owner Jamie Brink. To keep up with the area’s growth and entertainment opportunities, Bargos added a covered, outdoor patio in 2014.
Owners: Brett Corwin, Joe Nicholson Jr., Jamie Brink.The Bargos on Miamsburg-Centerville Road is close to the Dayton mall, bringing in patrons from around the area, including employees and customers of a car dealership next store.
Bargos has an area set aside for its MP vending machine, where customers can purchase Keno and other Ohio Lottery games. That’s made business at the Miamisburg-Centerville location manageable for manager Kristen Lemon and her staff. The area is being reconfigured for future growth.
“Keno is by far our number one seller,” she says of Lottery. “We have customers who come in daily to play, watch sports, play Keno.”
Kristen has worked at both the Dayton and Cincinnati locations. This one is her favorite.
“It’s a great place to work. It’s a family,” says Kristen. “I’ve always been very lucky. For the most part, there’s very little turnover.”

Kristen, an industry veteran, works witha crew of 15 and has been employedwith Bargos for the past 13 years. Sheknows her regulars and enjoys them. Asa group, her customers often tend to playtogether too.
“Truly, I believe when people play, they’rewinning. It’s a real community here.”
