I continue to be in awe of the kid friendly offerings downtown Columbus offers their community. Our favorites are The Commons (free indoor cushioned playscape), Lucabbe Coffee (featuring a built in kids area with a high top for adults) and the small children's museum across the street from the Commons. You can literally fill a whole morning/half day with these three spots alone. The Commons is open to the community and free. Their are playscapes ideal for toddlers up through elementary school. The plush flooring and overall layout makes this a low stress experience for parents. Bravo, Columbus! Many Saturday mornings on our horizon with you.

She worked very creatively with my $500 budget and did a phenomenal job! People continue to tell me that my bouquet was one of the most beautiful they had ever seen--it was bountiful and light as a feather at the same time, which I didn't know was possible! It is because of her deep knowledge of various flower costs and her experience that she was able to quote me generous possibilities for my limited budget. What she provided was the very essence of the look I was going for with a concentrated amount of outstanding quality blossoms and lush greenery. I got every item type I wanted to fit in my budget. One of the biggest "bangs for your buck" I have ever received! Thank you Gina for giving me the flowers of my dreams! xo

My mother in law said it was great because she was able to set up the reception ahead of time. The venue itself is very industrial. It is also very spacious. My SIL had a guest list of about 250 people and there was still plenty of room to spare for walking around, mingling, dance floor, etc. I liked the vibe of the place. Really cool. There was also a seperate nice big room (possibly used for other events or small gatherings) that the bridal party could leave all their belongings and bags. As well as get lined up and prepared to make our entrance into the large reception room. The bathrooms were clean and spacious. Nothing fancy but good enough. I'd reccomend this venue to someone for a reception or event space.

Ethnic expo was actually the reason why we went to Indiana. The hotel was small but clean. That's all that's matter to me. As soon as I walked in to the lobby, my kids were totally drawn to the dog residence there the dog is so cute. The staff were so nice and tried to accommodate me if I need any help. Maybe they just felt bad since I drove by myself all the way from Chicago with three teens The only thing that my kids cared was the pool. The pool was super small but it did the job The room was clean and was pretty big in my opinion for a deluxe. The only thing that I didn't like is that there is no microwave or a small fridge. We will be back here after the new year for sure.

I want to level set by stating that I dine all over the U.S. in all sorts of establishments, so I…read moreknow what is expected at different price points, in different regions / sized markets, etc. Understanding Columbus is a smaller town, I did my research before planning my dinner and Henry's Social Club was at the top based on what I was looking for (a good cocktail, wine, and a charcuterie board). I will start off with the positives: the atmosphere was nice and I was greeted by friendly staff and shown to the bar were I received good service. Now to the reason I would not recommend. I ordered a cocktail from the menu and it was served in less than 20 seconds. Speed is great, but for the price of the cocktail, I was not expecting a cocktail that they had pre-mixed, which was what I was served (and that lack of attention was evident in the flavor). The cocktail wasn't bad, but sure not up to the standards of the price (and price is only an issue in the absence of value). Next came the charcuterie board...it was 3 stacks of salami (not even good salami), pickled beats, raw red onions, raw jalapeno slices, some pitted Kalamata olives, cornichons, a small wedge of brie, a couple of slices of a white cheddar, a tiny scoop of goat cheese, and a raspberry vinaigrette. This all came with a side of boxed crostinis, which I was told "let us know if you need more". When I asked about there only being salami on the board, the staff said, "yeah, its a salami heavy board"...with which I asked, "do you have anything other than salami?" and he said he would ask the chef. 3 minutes later they came out and said that was all they had and did I want another appetizer. All of the other appetizer (3 in total) were not of the same value nor were they what I had come into the restaurant for, so I said "it is fine". I ate 1/4 of the board (the pickled beats were the shinning star) and asked for my ticket, which I assumed would include my $20 cocktail, the bottle of wine I ordered, and some discount for the poor excuse of a charcuterie board, but there was no compromise / disount for their board's lack of variety or quality. I didn't protest, but I certainly want others to know that the quality here certainly isn't worth the price.
