Food Scene

Best place in town!! Either right next door or just around the corner. The owners designed and decorated the space themselves, as well as created the seasonal menus and incredible cocktails. We recommend the lamb chops. Reservations should be made ahead of time. You don't want to miss out on this place!

Calling all paleo, gluten free, and seasonal food lovers! Their menu is constantly changing, although you can never go wrong with their grass-fed local burger - go ahead and add that bacon, egg, and avocado to make your foodie dreams come true. The brunch is a big hit, as are Taco-Tuesdays! Not to mention, they have kombucha on tap... score!

The one and only pizza place in Columbus that is comparable to real Italian pizza; and this is coming from someone who lived in Italy for two years. Anything with artichokes please! Family friendly, live music, and good late night food if you need some.

A beer bar and restaurant. If you love beer and cocktails, this place is for you. They have multiple beers on tap, a very talented mixologist who created each cocktail himself, and delicious food. Try the donut burger if it's available.
