Happy Friday! Here’s the latest Columbus restaurant news:
- Signs have gone up announcing the return of the Worthington Inn! Although details are scarce at this point, new signage on the side of the building offers a QR code where people can sign up to get announcements. The original parts of the building date back to 1831, and it served as a residence, an inn, and a restaurant over the decades, before closing up at the very end of 2018. Since then the building has been sold and the upper floors converted to office spaces. Here’s a look back at their popular Sunday brunch buffet from 2011!
- Little Grand Market in Grandview announced that Preston’s Burgers will take over the stall recently vacated by Taesty’s Southern Style. An exact opening date hasn’t been set yet. Preston’s also operates its storefront in Clintonville.
