    I didnt realize HOW far away this was from Columbus. It was definitely not close. By the time we got there for breakfast I was grumpy. I was getting hangry, for sure. But the owners of the cafe were so nice they quickly got me in a good mood. We ordered a breakfast bowl, avocado toast, scrambled eggs and a latte and a regular coffee. My husband enjoyed his breakfast bowl. My avocado toast was excellent. Scrambled egg was nicely cooked and it was affordable. The entire meal was maybe 18 bucks. Very affordable What is nice about this place is it really is community centric. Most everything they sell seems to be local or Ohio made. They open their space for book fairs, painting classes and I think live music if I remember correctly. I was impressed with just how nice the owners were and as I said I really liked my breakfast! Thanks Cardington Cafe!

    Lucky Charms and Thin Mint Iced Coffee was delicious!

    The food was made fresh, the service was friendly and quick. Thin Mint iced Coffee was delicious! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, Seasonal decor was adorable! And the mix of new and antique items, many from local vendors, available for purchase was great! This is a Must Stop Shop!

    It's a great gathering place for friends and family. Some of my high school class mates are meeting there monthly.

My vanilla lavender latte was a bit heavy on the lavender but it was decent. My family enjoyed their drinks as well and we would love to come back and try out some of their tasty looking food items next time we are in the area. Great little spot!

They have a private parking lot and a drive thru... however I recommend you dont drive thru. Nothing wrong with driving thru... its just the inside is so perfect and welcoming. They have friendly attentive staff and most of all, the way they present their baked goods and the quality of said baked goods is worth the steps inside. Everything is hand created there. Speaking of the food: The breakfast biscuit made on the herbed biscuit is a MUST get. If you don't get one and someone in your party does.. you "will" have food envy. Not even joking. It is that good. We surprised our friends at a dog show down the road ag the richland county fair with breakfast sandwiches and baked goods from Nickel and Bean and they multiple times brought up how good the sammie was. If you havent stopped in... go! Now!!!

    Cute cafe with so many sweet options it's overwhelming (in a good way)! The service was a bit slow…read moreas there was only 1 staff and they were training 2 people at the same time (not complaining, they were very friendly and helpful but 2 people in front of me left.) there was a big line of flavored syrups on the wall and I was excited but a little disappointed to learn they only offered 3 sugar free kinds (vanilla, caramel and lavender). Ice latte was good but omg the pistachio mascarpone croissant and gluten free chocolate cake...I didn't taste much pistachio but the mascarpone cream filling was so so tasty and croissant was nice and light and fluffy. Chocolate cake was decadent but not too heavy or sweet. It was amazing! They offer so many sweets and gelato, I will have to visit them again to try different things!

    Ciao Cafe. You make…read moredelicious cafe lattes and have a wide array of lipsmackingly good pastries! What's not to like? My favourite is the pistachio creme filled croissants, followed closely by the strawberry and cream croissant. They have a wide array of sweet and (I suspect?) savoury bites for your morning breakfast or afternoon pick-me-ups. The decor is nothing to write home about, but it's nice to just sit on the stool, gaze out the window on to the busy streets, and sip your cuppa as you people-watch and munch down on a lovely pastry.
