50 Best Cafes near Grove City

“This place is amazing! I just visited for the first time and walked in for a gift card but walked out with the Best chicken salad sandwich this side of heaven! Lisa and Cathy were at the front and they made me feel so welcome! I would come back just for them, but it helps that my food and tea were fantastic! They definitely gained a new customer today! :)“

“I absolutely love this place, I couldn't find coffee open around 4 o clock and I ended up here, they not only exceeded my expectations but blew it out of the water. Highly recommend the air head energy tea and the Carmel nut cluster. Makenzie was super nice and helpful figuring out what I could want as this was my first time in. THANKS FOR THE SAVE

Vegetarian options: You honestly have to go down the menu because the expanse is too much to list

Dietary restrictions: They can accommodate what you are aiming for“

“Such a great little coffee spot. Met the owner and he is awesome.

To my knowledge, this is the only place I've been to that makes a Cubano and it is wonderful. Reminds me of the one I got in Islamorada in November 2020. Very very good.“

“Super fresh food and smoothies!! Highly recommend for a healthy meal!“

“After working all day, I decided I wanted warm soup for dinner on a cold night. I haven’t been to Panera in quite sometime. I ordered takeout - the pick 2, broccoli cheddar soup and the chicken Fuji apple salad with a baguette and a chocolate chip cookie. Wow! Everything was prepared with perfection! Soup was hot, salad included fresh ingredients, filled to the brim. Baguette was soft and fresh. I should have taken a picture to share. Trust me, everything was delicious! Thank you! I will be returning!“

“One of my go-to breakfast spots in Columbus. I eat here atleast once a week and have yet to have anything that lets me down. The baked goods are phenomal, the menu items are fantastic and the coffee is tasty. Above all else, they do everything for a cause that warms my soul. Do yourself a favor and patronize this business ❤️??“

“We loved all the pastries we tried as well as the coffee! The staff were super accommodating so I could get the extra space for the milk. The chocolate pastry was exceptional and the barista recommended it, so good call!“

“Came with my husband and 3 kids after a PBS event. Great food and drinks!!!!

Boba was one of the best I've ever had! And the donut made me wish I had gotten a dozen.

There were so many pastries to choose from, mainly sweet but a few savory. Definitely wish I lived closer so I could come more often.“

“The Food is soooo good at Habibi Grill! We frequent them regularly and love the excellent Lebanese food. They always exceed expectations and the food never disappoints. Delicious!“

“So cute inside. The cold brew was really good! It had notes of PB&J- very unique and yummy.

Dietary restrictions: The menu is very clear on what dish has gluten/dairy/etc.

I thought that was very considerate!“

“Was visiting Columbus for a concert and this little coffee shop is amazing! The coffee is delicious with their crafted drinks having just the right amount of sweetness. They have a record player and records to choose from to put on some music which really adds to the vibe of the place. The staff was very friendly and ready to answer any questions and service was fast. Plenty of seating to go around. Would be a great place to sit and study or read while enjoying some fantastic coffee! I got the cinnamon roll cappuccino and my sisters got hot chocolate and a s'mortado. They have bags of coffee you can purchase and some apparel as well, it's coffee for a good cause that goes towards helping the community! Glad we decided to check it out while in town!“

“The owner is so sweet and so accommodating. Coffee was amazing, food was fresh, and prices are fair. 10/10 recommend.“

“For such a little cafe, Sycamore somehow manages to do just about everything very well. Best coffee in Columbus, fantastic lunch and dinner that feels upscale, beautiful atmosphere and location, and always friendly staff. The service can sometimes be a little slow, but they are clearly spending their time ensuring a quality overall experience so it doesn’t bother me at all“

“What a lovely coffee shop! I was greeted with beautiful smiles as I walked in, the aroma of the coffee was terrific, and the homemade baked goods are unbelievable. Coffee chains are truly not worth the time when places like Park Service Coffee exists! Thx Columbus!“

“Just flew in from Pensacola and this was my first stop! Great atmosphere and fantastic service and the shakes were great. Will definitely be stopping back by again while I am here!“

“The cafe is inside the old church which is for me totally amazingly beautiful and gave it different vibes and atmosphere from any other cafe.
I also like the pourover coffee, but it would be great if they provide people with samples of the coffee.
Because I wanted to try Java beans since I don’t try it before but I don’t like it.“

“Our first experience at Degrees was relaxing, delicious, and enjoyable. Our server did an excellent job and our food was delicious. The cheesy biscuits were melt in your mouth good. We will definitely be back. We appreciated the calm and quiet setting.“

“I ordered thru uber eats but plan to visit the store and try some different things. ❤ The toast looks amazing!! I look forward to trying the smore's drink! I ordered the cookie butter drink, and it didn't disappoint! Thank you!!! ?“

“First time here this was really I’m impressed“

“Visited Treaty Bear for the rolled ice cream. The service was quick and they have so many options to choose from. The portions were a great size for an after dinner treat. Not a lot of room to hangout inside but there are seats and tables outside that are nice to sit at.“

“Coffee is top notch! Drinks including turtleneck/gold chain and espresso martini equally as great! A new fav spot for my husband and I to chill.“

“This is my go to place for lunch when visiting the Columbus area. The food is always on point and the staff are extremely friendly and courteous. They also will validate your parking, so definitely give Schokko Cafe a try. You'll be happy you did.“

“I tried this place for the first time today. I got the sweet cheese kolache for the office. Everyone loved them! The service was also fast and friendly. Highly recommend! I'll definitely be going back.“

“Emmett's NEVER fails! Whether it's a matcha, their breakfast burrito, a sweet treat, or whatever...it is always SO GOOD. I am willing to pay the steeper prices because it is genuinely worth it between the taste, quality, atmosphere, and kindness of the workers. I love Emmett's!“

“Amazing food and cool unique decor! 10/10!“

“Finally made it in after wanting to for so long. What better weekend than Jan 7? Beignet sampler was delicious and now we’ll know what to go for next time in, though you can’t go wrong. I can’t wait to try the shrimp and grits and am so happy to have some southern culture in Columbus.“

“I visit this local coffee shop when I am in town for business. The cappuccino is very good and love the taste of the expresso that they use in their cappuccino. Recently, they have only had one barista working in the morning so you may need to wait a little while for your drink, but is definitely worth the wait.“

“Good convenient coffee. The branding doesn’t make sense though. It is called the caffeine element but caffeine is not an element it is a compound. They even double down on this branding by displaying the chemical formula for caffeine on the door, which is clearly composed of multiple elements. Normally fine ok I get it but this place is attached to a library on a college campus. The pun is too much of a stretch to pull off.“

“I had the Tidier-Tom sandwich, which was like a sloppy joe, and it had a yummy slaw mix and pickle slices on top. The mixed fruit was delicious, as was the Butterscotch Oatmeal cookie (which was HUGE, and I got too full, so I save the rest for later). So glad I tried this place!“

“This place is phenomenal! From the customer service to the tips they offer you while trying to focus on healthy options. James is awesome and very friendly. Very knowledgeable about determination and healthy habits for a fitness mindset.My son requested we go back a second time today for a tea and shake! My son said I give this place a thumbs up and a 1,000 out of 10! I had pretty in pink and my son had a birthday cake shake! Absolutely delicious.“

“Come to this cafe is an adventure to pass the security station to get into the court at elevator to 16th floor. The cafe has the special view never seen a little more than 180 degrees around the tower. The food is the cafe not impressed but everyone is friendly and be honest I really enjoyed eating my meatballs sub while looking around this beautiful city.Open 8am and close 3pm“

“Absolutely love this charming little gem tucked away inside 2 Miranova. Talented and innovative chef who offers delicious staples that won't break the bank. And don't pass on dessert! Blueberry bars, banana bread and various rotating treats are simply divine! Bravo!“

“Thanks thanks thanks thanks“

“Carrie's Cafe is a hidden gem for seniors. After filling out paperwork once, elders can get a hot, healthy meal for $1.50. Anyone can eat, but are charged full price. I spent $6.50. There are also cold options. God Bless LifeCare Alliance for offering this to the community.“

“Reid and all the staff at Blue Moon Cafe always go above and beyond to meet their customers needs and please their taste buds. Reid creates some of the best food I’ve ever eaten! I highly recommend Blue Moon to anyone in the Alpena area! You will not be disappointed!“

“Cute coffee shop! Tried “I Yam What I Yam” which had a nice pumpkin flavor that wasn’t overly sweet. My friend asked for an Iced Cappuccino and the staff very kindly explained how they could accommodate an unusual request which showed their patience and focus on great customer service! The interactive downtown map was super helpful finding and navigating between hot spots in the area.“

“I understand that running a business is extremely difficult nowadays so I decided to give a good review even though I had a bad experience today when I first time visiting the place. It’s a great location on campus and provides lots of convenience to staffs and students. However, the cashier who worked today during the lunch time is just not very friendly and being very bias. I thought it’s a regular Starbucks store and could use my app to pay but it’s not, when she told me that I couldn’t use my app, I immediately switch to my apply pay. The system was slow to get the transaction done and I can tell she lost her patience and assumed I didn’t know how to use Apple Pay. I feel sorry to hold the line so I even apologize for it when she showed me the bad attitude. Unfortunately I didn’t like the drink I was served so I went back with the full cup and ask if I could get a new one (I normally don’t do that but I just don’t like the taste and really need a cup of coffee to help me get through). She showed me an embarrassed face and looked at me like I tried to take advantage of it. She said “okay but you have to pay for it”. I am shocked and that’s my first time experiencing at this store. I do appreciate other two staffs who worked there. They are very understanding to help me out and they worked so hard.“

“Very aesthetic place! 5 Star Chef and Service! Such a mellow environment, I could stay for hours! Coffee and Boba, the kids loved!“

“Accessibility Review: As a frequent coffee shop studier, I enjoyed my time getting work done at Gata Magica Cafe and Lounge. As I worked and evaluated the accessibility of the establishment, I noticed upon entering that the tables and chairs on the first floor level are placed tightly together which may be difficult to maneuver around with a wheelchair or walker, especially when the walkway areas are crowded with customers. The upper level is more spread out and spacious, however, it is only accessible by stairs.

As for sensory elements, this coffee shop had a very relaxing atmosphere with a quiet noise level besides the occasional coffee machine sounds and low level of chatter. The lighting was also very relaxed and dim without any fluorescent lighting which helps to create a less stimulating atmosphere for those with sensory sensitivities.

While the menu display itself did not have braille or text reading abilities for the blind or visually impaired, the baristas were very helpful and I’m sure would happily assist a customer by reading the menu aloud if needed. They could make this even more accessible to people with vision impairments by adding an electronic menu option that is screen reader compliant. The pay station was a touch screen tablet and did not have screen reading capabilities that I was aware of, so this may also be difficult for those who are blind or visually impaired to process their payment and pick a tip option independently.

The bathroom had a door with a code lock which may be difficult for individuals who have difficulty with fine motor skills. However, once in the bathroom, there is plenty of space for maneuverability with support railings around the toilet. The sink is at a low enough height to be accessed by wheelchair, however, the soap and paper towels are much higher and would be difficult to reach from a sitting position. The toilet is a manual flush, helping to reduce unexpected sensory input of a loud, unexpected flush.

Overall, I understand that there are limitations on building structures on High Street, but this accessibility is important to consider and for potential disabled customers to be aware of.“

“I come here often and am always greeted by happy faces and wonderful service. I've always considered it one of my favorite Starbucks'. Today however they went above and beyond, I went to get my reusable cup for the holiday season to find that they had no lids, but just cups. The barista started by offering that the cups fit normal lids perfectly and we could still get the discount if we brought them back, and was apologetic that they were out of the reusable lids. I went to study upstairs, and the barista came and found me 30 minutes later with a reusable lid saying they had just been given more and she had seen our backpacks and wanted to make sure we had them! Above and beyond customer service with a smile, now without question, my favorite Starbucks! - Not to mention their drinks have always been on point!“

“Staff is excellent and incredibly kind despite how busy it is; April stands out as a welcoming presence. The food and drink are amazing as well. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Dietary restrictions: Online menu clearly outlines allergens.“

“Burritos are delicious!

Vegetarian options: You can get vegetarian options at all stations, as well as vegan. All stations have plant based proteins

Dietary restrictions: They take allergies very seriously, and are able to accommodate most dietary restrictions

Parking: It's OSU campus, so good luck finding parking

Kid-friendliness: There's usually a lot going on there, so young kids may get overstimulated

Wheelchair accessibility: All entrances have wheelchair access buttons“

“Such an awesome place I just discovered today. Great service and delicious offerings I’ll be back!“

“Missy was the only one working in the Cafe and my order was still done in a timely manner and correct. The line was long but she got through it fast and was stil talking to everyone in line. She was very friendly even though she was really busy! She deserves a raise!“
