About RDBC

Roundhouse Depot Brewing Co. (RDBC) is the first-ever brewery in Bellefontaine, Ohio. The creation represents the rich history of the railroad in Bellefontaine and Logan County. Established by the husband-and-wife team, Rob and Kathy Troyer, RDBC is a project that originated from fun and passion. After having spent countless hours driving from state to state to sample various beers all over the Midwest, as well as experimenting with home-brewing, the couple decided to go pro. As a result, RDBC came to fruition.

RDBC is open weekly, Thursday through Sunday. On Saturday evenings, you’re likely to find a variety of food trucks in the parking lot, all for your enjoyment. While the brewery doesn’t prepare and sell food, they do encourage you to bring in a snack to munch on from any of your favorite local eateries.

About Flying Pepper Cantina

The Flying Pepper Cantina originated as simply Flying Pepper, a well-liked and sought-after food truck founded by Humberto Nieto and Laura Haverkos in 2015. Today, the truck remains a favorite eatery and can often be found at the Logan County Farmers Market, as well as events in Urbana, Yellow Springs, and Springfield.

Due to a very high need, Flying Pepper Cantina opened in 2020, a restaurant that features authentic Mexican cuisine with a modern twist, alongside a beautiful lounge. The building was the former location for the House of Szechwan, and before that, the Palm Grill. The menu is loaded with everything from tacos to quesadillas to fresh guacamole. Additionally, if you’re 21 or older, you’ll want to take a peek at the drink menu, which offers a long list of refreshing margaritas and beers.
