The Backstretch is committed to serving seasonal, scratch-made dishes along with quality service and hometown style.

Individually handcrafted pizzas cooked in our woodfired oven in traditional Italian style. Each dough is tossed by hand and topped with our homemade sauces and fresh, all natural ingredients.

Tucked along Winter Street in the heart of historic Delaware, Ohio, 1808 American Bistro was established in 2008 and as the name reflects, 1808 has always been committed to embracing the rich traditions and heritage of our community while introducing our customers to innovative and modern cuisine. Offering superb quality classics with the finest, most local ingredients available is their specialty. American bistro fare with the occasional twists. Handmade cocktails with fresh squeezed ingredients. Wines from around the world and right in our backyard. And, they have the most extensive craft beer list in town – 48 brews on draft. Cheers to that. Open for dinner and Sunday brunch.
