Live for the First Bite

Columbus is a rising culinary city named one of the best destinations for culinary travel in 2024 by Essence. Our chefs and restaurants are making headlines in publications like Food & Wine, Forbes and Bon Appétit, and two Columbus chefs were recently named 2024 James Beard Awards semifinalists. Columbus is home to restaurateur Cameron Mitchell and Jeni Britton, the mind behind Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, both with locations throughout the city. Whether you want to check out one of the top food halls in the country with your family, enjoy a date night downtown or toast to the weekend with friends at one of our rooftop bars, we’ve got a spot for you.
