The only place I've found in Ohio so far that has lavender syrup to add as a flavoring to your coffee. It's subtle, sweet and not an overpowering floral kind that tastes perfume-y. I had the lavender latte of course, it tasted as dreamy as it smelled. Yum. My mom had the cardamom mocha and she loved it. The bus is in an old carwash stall and has some seating out front to enjoy there. Pretty cool place. Take a look around at the art and a few stalls down there was even a "take a plant, leave a plant" section. Same concept as a free little library. read more

This is a cute little coffee truck across from the Plant Library in Gahanna. Very friendly guy with iced and hot drinks. You can order online or at the rear of the truck. There was a sign that mentioned events, so I believe you can also rent this truck out for an event if you'd like. I recommend stopping by and then checking out the Plant Library and murals across the street. Enjoy! read more

Alright, alright how is everybody? Good, good. As my Yelp followers know my name is Matt Folley and I am a motivational speaker. I have spent the last four hours in the basement drinking coffee, and the brew I drink is by Blank Slate that comes from a VAN DOWN BY THE CREEKSIDE! Now let's get started by me giving you a scenario of what Blank Slate Coffee is all about. First off they are open everyday 7am--2pm, make great indy brew, and are in a stainless steal VAN DOWN BY THE CREEKSIDE! Now you kids are probably saying to yourselves I am just going out to a chain joint,download their spyware, and put their app in my phone; well I am here to tell you that Starbucks and its ilk don't amount to JACKKKK--SQUAT!!!!! Next thing you'll be doin' crack, ice, bang, boom, nuclear butt bomb! You'll end up in corporate skid row, consuming a steady diet of formulaic crap! Be like me and go to THE VAN DOWN BY THE CREEKSIDE! Now on Yelp some of you kids fancy yourself a Billy Shakespeare, well Whoopty-doo! From what I hear you're using paper not for writing but for rolling doobies! If you're rolling lots doobies you need to come to the van down by the Creekside! Because it is in the Gahanna Plant Library, and there is lots of cool community art to freak out to when you're cloudy with the chance for munchies, when you're just got done painting the shed, when you higher than a bats ass! You might be saying Matt, how do we get back on the right track? Well, I am moving in to be sure you go to Gahanna and get your coffee FROM A VAN DOWN BY THE CREEKSIDE! You'll have plenty of time to drink coffee from a van down by the river when you are DRINKING COFFEE FROM A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!! read more

I wanted to like this place. I really did. My friends recommended it and I drove past it one night while driving through Gahanna and told myself I'll come back soon to give it a try since exploring new coffee shops is something I love to do. So coffee shop annnnnd an Airstream? Yes please! That excitement soon diminished however as soon as I pulled into the parking lot. The first thing I noticed was that the Airstream is gone and is now replaced by a silver food truck that definitely has seen better days. I'm a big fan of old school rugged style, but I don't know, this just seemed to make me question what I was drinking versus thinking "that's right, I got coffee out of a camper." When I walked up to the back of the van, there was a table with a jar for tips and stir sticks. After standing by the back for a short moment, the window of the van opened and a man was sitting inside. No greeting was given and there was almost and awkward stare at each other. I then asked if they were open (you would see why that was a question when you drive up) and at first I received no reply but a continued stare. I asked again, and I got a yes as an answer. I then realized there was no menu in sight. So after being asked what I wanted to order, I then had to ask for a menu. I was given an old laminated piece of paper with stains all over it. Definitely what I want to see when I'm about to order something...and when something clearly wasn't cleaned that others handle when Covid is running around, just not something I want to use. I ordered a vanilla spice late and my friend ordered a cappuccino. I hate to say it, but my drink was one of the worst coffee drinks I've had. There was no spice, hardly any vanilla, and the coffee was so bitter, I couldn't tolerate drinking the rest! And that's saying something because I'm not one to waste food or drinks. The cappuccino hardly had foam from what my friend told me, and I was told it was a struggle to get down. I go to a lot of coffee shops. At least 3 a week. And have been to a variety of them around the country, and as sad as it is, this has to rank in my bottom 5. The barista did wear a mask which was good, and when he handed me my coffee he was pleasant and told me to have a good day. So I do want to state that. I have yet to try the coffee shop about three places down, (plan on doing that this week). But when I walked by, I now see why they were packed full of people while we were the only ones in line at Blank Slate. read more

This is a 1971 sir stream converted to a coffee shop. It's small but there are seats and a table on which you can write. I got a lavender latte. There are bagels and apple fritters if you want something to eat. There is a meeting space in a building behind the air stream which can be rented for events. I met the owner, who is an artist. I love this space and can see renting out the meeting space for a book signing!! read more

Honestly, not the biggest fan. We love supporting small businesses, but compared to Upper Cup right beside it, it's not as good. We ordered the equivalent of what we get at Upper Cup: an Americano and an Iced Caramel Latte. Neither was as good and it was more expensive. I can't even advocate for the parking or the atmosphere. Parking is difficult and there isn't an atmosphere. If you want to try something new and are passing through, feel free. It's not a place we feel the desire to visit again. read more

Such a cool coffee experience, and really good coffee. I visited on a winter Saturday morning shortly after they opened up. I was attracted to Blank Slate Coffee because of the Air Stream trailer. The Air Stream can get crowded with just three people inside but Blank Slate has an indoor art space for indoor seating. It's a just a cool place that needs to be experienced. Their coffee is excellent so I'm sure you'll go back again and again if you're local, unlike me who lives too far away. They use top notch professional coffee equipment, like a La Marzocco espresso machine and a Fetco brewer. Blank Slate serves and sells local coffee from Mission Coffee Roaster. The barista that served me took time to answer all my curious questions about coffee, coffee equipment, and serving coffee, which was very helpful. If you're in a hurry the Air Stream trailer has a drive through!! read more

Perfect place for coffee during these times. I was able to order online for pickup, we walked up and drinks were handed out the window. Barista was very friendly and it was nice to stand (socially distant) outside and smell the coffee. I tried the lavender latte with soy and highly recommend giving it a try. My SO had the chai latte and it was also delicious. My next visit I plan to try the vanilla spice latte! read more

Gahanna has a surprising little cluster of coffee places, which I wish were a bit closer to us. Upper Cup, Koko, and Blank Slate, within a block or so. We're fans of all, but usually end up at Koko for the pastries (and occasionally the tea-house experience, especially with friends and family.) I've seen Blank Slate dozens of times, but it's never open when I come by. Finally made it today. First, drive-through, which is handy. Second, supercool Airstream. Two big plusses. There is actually a tiny seating area inside, and the trailer, though stripped and refurbished, is still cool inside too. Service is good. Prices are reasonable. The menu is small, but who needs all the options- you want caffeine, and maybe sugar. We got a couple to go, a salted caramel latte (very good, very balanced flavors) and a caramel macchiato (which Sweetie did not want to put down.) The drive-through approach is odd- go right in front of the trailer, left through the old carwash, and around- follow the arrows. Worth a detour, handy if you're at all nearby, and unique, if only for the atmosphere, again, inside and out. read more

Got the chocolate cold brew and the lavender latte. YUM. The cold brew came with milk which I wasn't expecting, but it was absolutely amazing. I had the lavender latte done with soy at the last second and didn't get an up charge either. The drinks were both sweetened which I wasn't sure expecting, but they weren't overdone and still delicious. I'll definitely be coming back to try some of their other drinks! read more

Really cute place. Coffee is served out of a vintage Airstream. As I love all things retro had to go check it out. It's gets 4 stars because of the artistry put into the business concept and location. I just got a basic coffee with almond milk, nothing too fancy. It sets on a lot in front of an old car wash that artist have painted all over. There is also a little chill spot/gallery inside where the car wash "lobby" would have been and u can take your coffee in and and access free wifi. I didn't go in but deff seemed like a cute spot to meet up and talk friend or business stuff :) Sits in cute downtown Gahanna. read more

Cute little shop in Gahanna! Their coffee is Mission Coffee, which I'm honestly not the biggest fan of. But it was pretty good! I got a lavender iced latte, it was a little more flowery than I prefer. My friend got a chocolate iced latte and it tasted like straight up chocolate milk with espresso, it was delicious! The space is definitely different which makes it fun but there is no seating. There's a little table with two chairs outside. So you pretty much have to take it to-go. Which is fine. I won't go on a regular basis, but I would definitely take people there to give them a unique experience. read more

We were in Columbus for the weekend and looking for coffee on a Sunday morning. We like finding locally owned coffee shops when away on a trip before settling for Starbucks or some other national chain. We saw coffee served out of an old Airstream. Who wouldn't want to try that. The experience was ok but nothing exceptional or out of the ordinary. Didn't see anything displayed to eat and since we only wanted coffee and not some fancy latte The was only one brew available. Sort of disappointing. I don't like to write critical or bad reviews, but I want these people to step up their game. Coffee out of and airstream is such a cool idea. You guys can do better. You have a cool concept. I don't know their situation but I want them to wow me next time. I'm rooting for you!!! read more

What a cute little place this is. They've taken an old airstream style camper and converted it into a drive-thru coffee bar. You pull right up to one of the original windows to order and pay. I'd been trying to budget enough time to stop on my way to work for ages. When I finally stopped, I wasn't disappointed. The plain, regular drip coffee I ordered was surprisingly good. I usually don't care for the drip stuff (French Press for this girl) but whatever coffee they are using manages to maintain that flavor despite running through the machine. I really, really appreciate that when I'm in a hurry. I also got a chocolate chip cappuccino muffin. This was really tasty too. Like, thinking about it right now kinda makes me want another one. And, bonus, it was cheap too! You don't usually get such a good experience for such an affordable price. Fingers crossed I'll be able to get out of my house early more often so I can stop by. read more

Our beloved 50 year old, lever operated Gaggia espresso machine is certain to catch your eye and offers a truly unique and authentic espresso experience!

History

Established in 2015.

Blank Slate Coffee started with a small booth set up, hitting mainly local Gahanna events. The owners wanted to create a unique "mobile" coffee experience that allowed customers to come inside and interact with our awesome baristas. The Airstream just made so much sense, so in June of 2016, we started running full hours out of our spot on Mill Street in Gahanna.

Meet the Business Owner: Matt R.

Blank Slate Coffee is for the community, by the community. We live here. Gahanna is our home and the people we serve are our neighbors. We're all about serving a high quality product, and doing it in a way that helps build community.

We popped a squat under a shade tree at the park to eat and I had a taste of her chicken and a couple fries. They were quite yummy. The chicken was so moist and obviously freshly made. They also had crispy chicken sliders on the menu, which I would love to get next time.

We came across the Eiffel Street Food food truck at an event, which was a tasty find. They…read moredescribed themselves as French street food and offered a nice selection, ranging from wraps (including an Eiffel sauce, smoked gouda queso, and fries on the inside, with your choice of protein), shawarma, quesadillas, protein bowl (your choice of protein over rice or salad), wings, and fries (including loaded fry options). We opted to try an Eiffel wrap with falafel and a chicken shawarma. Both came with fries on the side (even the Eiffel wrap that also had them inside), and were nice sized portions. We did not realize that the Eiffel wrap also came with pickles (it had been listed under the shawarma but not the wraps, so FYI for anyone else who has an opinion on pickles, ha). Pickle issue aside, everything else was quite tasty and much enjoyed. It smelled delicious when it came out too. The service side of the truck is nicely decorated with fake flowers/leaves and the menu. Staff was friendly and efficient.

Da Banks is my favorite food truck that I've stumbled upon for 2025. It hits a level of comfort…read morethat I can often only find in my own Southern cooking or when I am back home in North Carolina. Anytime they are parked at Zaftig, which is where I have found them, I'm there. Their chicken sandwich is well marinated, breaded nicely, and I dare say crisped to perfection. Same for the smaller, slider version when they are serving it. The folks that run the truck are some of the friendliest. They recognize us and genuinely appreciate the business. I've been thinking about this truck lately and I can't wait for the cold months to pass so I can seek them out around Columbus.

Decided to go up to Irony Pony to hit up a food truck I had been to before. Arrived and there were…read more2 trucks there. Decided to hit up DA BANKS FOOD TRUCK. Met the owner, Ordered the pulled pork sliders, green beans and Mac n cheese. The pulled pork was smoked with apple/hickory wood and had great flavor and the meat's texture was nice and moist. They use regular dinner rolls for buns. The green beans were very flavorful. Secret ingredients from Mom. Then there was the Mac and cheese, made with 4 different cheeses. Baked just like mom used to do. Yummy!!!! Not even a doubt that you have to check them out. They're listed on StreetFoodFinder.com.

The lobster is served in large pieces, no doubt you are enjoying high quality lobster, you lucky person.

Great food especially the lobster rolls and bisque but prices have doubled and make it a non option…read moreanymore.

I parked my car and walked over to the food truck, and I was lucky to literally be next in line. I ordered the recommended lobster roll from the fine gentlemen that was doing the serving. I also ordered a water because it was rather warm. I gathered my lunch walked over to a picnic table, nearby and sat down to eat. My first bite into the sandwich or roll as they label them was literally a shock to my memory, it took me back to being in Maine many years ago and getting a lobster roll at a restaurant. Now I know my memory is not what it used to be, but I can honestly say this was a freaking delicious lobster roll. I ate the entire roll, wiped my face with a napkin at the table. And went up and told the server behind the counter how good the food was and that I can't wait to literally find them close by again. I will admit, I did not eat all the potato chips, because I didn't need them, but they were also good. I just read on Facebook where they're going to be in Westchester on July 20 now I need to find out where because that's literally five minutes from my house. I truly cannot wait to order another lobster roll or two. If you've never eaten at this food truck, I highly recommend it. On the day I purchased my role. It was $29 which a lot of people might think is a lot of money literally for a sandwich, but I will tell you this it is truly worth it.

I got the single smash burger since I wasn't that hungry, and it was actually a good size (thought it would be tiny but it wasn't!). My fiancé got the Road Burger with bacon and said it was plenty. We're already planning to go back, I've got my eye on the fries with cheese and bacon next time.
