Coffee Shops & Bakeries

In Columbus, coffee roasting is as much of a science as wine making, making it the best coffee scene in the Midwest. There are quality coffee shops all across the city, and the Columbus Coffee Trail is the perfect way to get a taste of them. Sign up for the trail and buy a drink at four or more participating shops to claim your free Columbus Coffee T-Shirt!

The city's bakeries are also unmatched. In fact, Food & Wine named Columbus one of the 10 top cities in the nation for bakeries. The delectable macarons at the James Beard Award-nominated Pistacia Vera are not to be missed. Those with food allergens need not worry, with plenty of options to choose from like gluten-free Bake Me Happy. Plus, Columbus' international food scene extends to its bakeries, with options ranging from Mexican, Japanese, Czech, French and more.
