Things To Do
Fox in the Snow Cafe
Located in the Italian Village, this place has the best aesthetic! Along with coffee and pastries, they also offer some yummy sandwiches. It gets super busy, so try to arrive early!
The Lox Bagel Shop
One of the first breakfast places we tried once we moved here. Arguably one of the best bagel sandwiches in the area. This place can also get pretty packed, we recommend ordering ahead!
HangOverEasy
There are two locations for this breakfast place in Columbus - really great atmosphere and the food is 10/10.
Rooh
Very tasty progressive Indian restaurant.
Budd Dairy Food Hall
Can't decide on one thing to eat? Plenty of options here - this place has three levels with music, bars, and games on each floor. Heads up: food can only be found on the first floor.
Forno Kitchen + Bar
Such a great place for Apps and Pizza! We recommend the pesto pizza.
Dirty Frank's Hot Dog Palace
If you're in Columbus you have to go for the experience alone. Fun kinds of hot dogs, cheap beer, and an arcade bar (16-Bit Bar+Arcade) right next door.
Wolf's Ridge Brewing - Taproom
This location has a front entrance for dining only, but if you are looking for a casual drink and some apps walk just around the corner to the taproom entrance. You need to order the Garlic Parm Pretzle bites - trust these are amazing.
Gemüt Biergarten
German food and beer garden. Another place with some great outdoor seating.
Pins Mechanical Co
Enjoy craft cocktails and refreshing draft beer in a vibrant industrial setting, complete with classic games like ring toss, pinball, and giant beer pong. With a spacious outdoor area, you'll find cozy fire pits to keep warm and charming swings perfect for photos
Stories on High
Want to get a nice view of the city? Stories on High is Columbus' tallest rooftop bar with 360-degree views and fun cocktails.
Antiques on High
Not to be confused with Stories on High, this brewery offers beer, wine, cocktails, and snacks with a 70's aesthetic.
The Go Go
Looking for somewhere to go after the after party, or maybe the night before? This club is open until 2:30 am. And if you plan on staying out late here are some other clubs: Gaswerks, Mandrake Rooftop, Goodnight Johnboy, and a Speakeasy: CRMD Ice Cream & Speakeasy.
Easton Town Center
Shopping! And if you aren't a fan of big shopping centers, we recommend walking down High Street in Short North where you can find plenty of small business shops!
Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens
Perfect for exploring (Although you will receive free admission on the day of the wedding and have access to the entire park and its exhibits!). Another park in the area great for walking around: Topiary Park. For our friends who love to hike and are willing to drive a bit further try: Hocking Hills State Park - about an hour from Columbus, free admission with waterfalls, caves, lakes, and cliff views.
