The Best Coffeeshops
This is easily the most popular coffeeshop in Columbus and for good reason. Aside from having great coffee, the house made pastry selection will have you wanting one of everything. However, if sweets aren't for you, they have perfected the breakfast sandwich. You won't find a better one anywhere in the city.

Stauf's is the most accessible local coffeeshop. They have multiple locations all over the city. I love this place because they have a wide variety of coffee to choose from and if you love a particular bean you can buy a bag to take home and make for yourself.

Sightseeing
Hockey season is in full swing. The Blue Jackets are huge in Columbus. Even if you don't like hockey, ?I still recommend going to a game. The atmosphere is electric and tickets are always reasonably priced. I would still recommend checking out the arena and the surrounding area regardless. There are plenty of bars and restaurants surrounding the arena.
