Columbus has more going on food-wise than most people outside Ohio realize. The Short North has serious restaurants, the North Market draws local producers from across the state, and the craft beer scene at Seventh Son and Land-Grant keeps the local tap lists interesting.
Start at North Market for a sampling lunch, then work into Italian Village for the afternoon breweries.
Hit multiple vendors: pierogis, tacos, pastries. The Saturday farmers market wraps around the building.
One of the best taprooms in Columbus, in a converted warehouse in Italian Village. The IPAs and sours are consistently excellent. Good food menu, unpretentious vibe.
The strip has strong options at every price point. Tip Top Kitchen is a classic Columbus diner that has been around for decades and does it right.
German Village brunch, afternoon at Land-Grant in Franklinton, then a final Short North dinner.
A German Village institution for pastries and brunch. The macarons are legitimately good. Arrive early on weekends.
In the Franklinton neighborhood west of downtown — a large taproom with an outdoor biergarten that is one of the best spots in the city on a good weather day.
