With 3 locations, FITC ranked #1 for their coffee and breakfast items on numerous occasions. Home to the best breakfast sandwich in the state of Ohio (arguably in the country).

At Stauf's, they roast their own beans and ship them to stores every 48 hours. There are 5 locations dotted around the city. My personal favorite is in Lincoln Village. The building was renovated from a 19th century church and it gives you a real nostalgic feeling. The perfect study spot.

The Roaming Goat is a quaint coffee shop located on North High Street. If you can't tell, I love when coffee shops roast their own beans. It makes every place a little bit for unique from the other. Their dirty chai is to die for.

Parable Coffee is a high end coffee shop. It's definitely the perfect meeting spot to catch up with a friend or for business. They always have the most delicious treats like their pear danish, pistachio croissant, and their prosciutto croissant with asiago cheese.

Maudines is a friendly coffee shop located inside The Junto hotel in Columbus. They use housemade syrups for their handcrafted beverages. Not only that, but they also have the most interesting dairy free milk options for their coffees including pecan milk, pumpkin seed milk, and cashew milk. If you’re hungry, Maudines has the most delicious Asian inspired bakery items. They have an array of brioche buns with cauliflower filling, peach filling and more!
