Fast and Flavorful  

Nothing too fancy, just good food, fast. These small shops really pack a punch and are perfect for when you’re short on time, but don’t want to forgo flavor. Bring it back to your desk or enjoy a picnic lunch at one of downtown’s spectacular parks.  

Barroluco
Argentine comfort food at its finest. Paella? Yes please!  

Café Napolitana
Whether you’re buying a whole pie or by the slice, each pizza is made in the traditional Italian style for a budget-friendly lunch that’s hard to beat.  

Cinco 
Authentic Mexican favorites, like tacos, burritos, quesadillas and build-your-own bowls, at a price point that will have your wallet saying, go ahead, get the guac.  

Dirty Frank’s 
Slinging up classic hot dogs with dozens of topping options. The possibilities are endless.  

Lexi’s on Third  
Best known for sandwiches piled sky-high with sliced meat. Their soups and salads are great too, especially if you’re looking for a lighter lunch. 

 

Elevated Everyday 

Whether you’re eating in or getting it to go, take your lunch to the next level with these establishments that are sure to tickle your taste buds.  

Aroma  
Inspired by the fragrances and flavors of various cuisines, you’ll find familiar lunch favorites with a flair. Bonus, plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. 

Tiger + Lily 
Asian-inspired dishes in a made-from-scratch kitchen, no shortcuts. Try their delicious noodle dishes two different ways – dry or in broth. Regardless, this is ramen like you’ve never had it before. 

Market 65  
Custom salad creations featuring fresh ingredients chopped right in front of you. If the topping options or too overwhelming, try one of their signature salads or wraps.  

Pecan Penny's 
Some of the best BBQ in Columbus with a retro vibe we can get behind. On warm days, glass doors roll up to create an immersive indoor-outdoor dining experience.  

 

Meet & Eat  

Sit down and catch up with new acquaintances or old colleagues, these spots are ideal for your next lunch meeting. Most offer carryout options as well but we recommend hanging around to enjoy the ambiance and atmosphere at these locales.
