Ready to go snacks
Valerie N.

Hidden gem coffee spot located inside of a furnishings store. I actually got lost trying to locate this place. The actual coffee shop is very small inside but there is a few tables outdoors for seating. They do offer seasonal drinks. This month features pumpkin spice, apple, or butterscotch. I went with the iced butterscotch latte. There are some light bites ready to go if you are looking for a snack. They also offer beans to take home to enjoy at your convenience. Team that helped me was very friendly. Can't wait to come back again.

Iced Carmellized Banana Latte

I saw a Carmellized Banana Latte on their seasonal menu and knew I had to go! The shop was adorable and welcoming. My husband ordered the Toasted Coconut Latte. We both loved our drinks! We aren't usually in the area, but we made a special trip. We will definitely be back.

Iced coffee, gluten free cookies, chai syrup

Our favorite Columbus coffee shop! They have done an amazing job of creating community, spreading joy and kindness, and make damn fine coffee! The house made syrups are absolutely delicious and have ruined us for the overly sweet commercial ones. We also love the variety of their seasonal menu. We are so lucky to have Joy Local here in Gahanna!

Stopped by Joy Local for a Saturday morning coffee to get the day started. It's a cute little truck. We went with items from the seasonal menu, caramelized banana chai and teddy graham latte. Both drinks are delicious! Definitely recommend checking them out!

I'm on an adventure to try new coffee places and this one is a 10 minute drive from my work. It's a cute, little vintage trailer. Their menu is fun. They have coffee, matcha, and lemonade. Unique syrup flavors. They were quick and very nice. Highly recommend.

Ask the Community - Joy Local Coffee

Are there places to sit inside this shop?

Hi, Diane! Short answer - yes there are places to sit inside the shop. Longer answer we don't have typical coffee shop seating / bistro tables. We're connected to a home supply/vintage/consignment store, and they've worked to put some seating in…

Scotty's Cafe came recommended by my wife's OSU colleague Isaac and it did not disappoint on two…read morefamily visits. First time my wife and daughter stopped before our daughter headed overseas for two years in the Peace Corps. Scotty''s is super close and convenient to the airport. Scotty learned of the imminent departure and came with cookies and treats for the long flight! And now this morning it was another airport drop off. It was my turn, dining alone but nothing about a table for one at Scotty's is lonely. The staff are immediately welcoming and every customer is every employee's charge. Four different people helped me or just checked in. The Gina breakfast combos have lots to offer for breakfast. But I was thrilled this 9:30 am to be assured the whole menu was available. I was looking for something less common and was excited to see potato latkes with sour cream and apple sauce as an option. That would have been great but then the waitress (Salome maybe) said, "Do you like corned beef?" The Schmoozer is 3 enormous latkes with thinly shaved and lightly grilled corn beef on top with an over easy egg atop that. Seriously, I can declare victory for finding something I'd never had before. Never would have found it without the nudge. Had to cut myself off with all the coffee offers. Just a great vibe. You rarely see a 4.9 rating and even more rarely that high based on so many reviews. But I understand why - like in so many things in life, it is about the people. And the joy they bring to every conversation. And I will just add, in this age when some would divide us, this dining room is filled with all manner of folks, reveling together over food in fellowship.

As someone who considers herself a pancake connoisseur, theirs were genuinely the best ones I've…read moreever had. They have such a wonderful vanilla flavor, I could eat them plain. Their baked goods are also a must-get, especially the lemon cookies and oatmeal raisin cookies! The workers were so kind and attentive and made our first experience there absolutely amazing.
