This diner is so homey and the portions are huge, the menu has almost too many options and it’s hard to decide what to eat! The red lentil soup and overnight oats were tasty, for main fare I loved the Great Tofu Wrap. The blonde macroon desserts were delightful!

This place is incredible. The tofu wrap was amazing and the BLT was out of this world!

Obsessed with Portia's cafe. Everything is always so fresh and full of flavor. I'm no longer vegan, but I crave their food all the time, still. The staff have the best vibes and are super attentive and helpful.

Traveling for work is tough. Long days turn into late nights, and eating healthy often falls by the wayside. That’s why I was excited to discover Portia’s Cafe, a spot dedicated to fresh, nutritious ingredients. Their menu is vegan, gluten-free, GMO-free, and organic, using local produce whenever possible. After a marathon day at the office, I ordered delivery straight to my hotel room.
While Portia’s leans toward lunch with its quesadillas, salads, and wraps, good food is good food any time of day. I went with the Notuna Salad and Red Lentil Soup—a classic combo that absolutely hit the spot. The notuna (made from mashed, seasoned chickpeas, I believe) was flavorful, especially with the creamy cashew dressing over fresh greens and shredded carrots. The red lentil soup added a comforting heft to the light salad. I couldn’t resist finishing with an apple almond cookie for a sweet ending.
Portia’s got me through my work night. I’ll definitely be back on future trips to Columbus.

Like many (most?) on Happy Cow I use the ap to define travel paths.
Portia’s is FANTASTIC.
They also have a health food store two doors down so we ended up having a great lunch and stocking up on supplies.
We even bought shirts!
Delicious vegan food! The staff is always so lovely as well. Food is ALWAYS on point. Pic of mushroom and tomato bisque, Saag paneer with tofu, and the super power wrap!

Came once and it was the better and the second time not so much. Took 15 minutes just to get checked in and our order placed. Hummus was a joke. Runny with no flavor and hardly any vegetables for $8. How do you mess up hummus? Wrap was actually pretty good, but there were some wilted pieces of lettuce in it. We were never even checked on and didn't have any water on our table nor did anyone ask if we wanted refills. And to top it off it looked like there was mold growing on on my cup...? Whatever it was it was disgusting and probably unhygienic. Safe to say I won't back, and I'm extremely disappointed with this experience.
