I really enjoyed the coffee and the bagels here - it is in the heart of the east market in Columbus so that automatically brings out the overall experience and an interesting vibe in this historic building, which has a nice seating area on the second level and even a patio to overlook that section of the gentrified and upcoming neighborhood .

I'll have to come back and try the regular waffles - the Liège style is VERY dense and chewy, and I should have gotten a regular coffee instead of a fancy one to wash it down. It was well made though, and the toppings were interesting (fresh whipped cream always wins), so it's worth coming back. I also got an oat milk mocha that was very nice, so their coffee selection is promising as well. Service was lovely - everyone was open to chatting and explaining the menu, and I got my food pretty quickly considering there was a line. I don't totally love the East Market ambiance and upstairs seating, but there's plenty of it, and in the summer, being outside is really nice.

Sweet Southampton

OK, so savory over sweet for breakfast and (unpopular opinion alert) I DO NOT like bacon. Yeah, I know, I'm going to have to move or something after admitting that last bit. oh, and waffles over pancakes :) But Winston's checked my boxes for brunch. I do happen to be a fan of chicken and waffles and, for an added bonus, they will make you a whole or a half waffle. I chose the Sweet South Hampton, which is stuffed with chicken and cheese and topped with scallions. I very much enjoyed my waffle drizzled with a little syrup or strawberry jam. the ratio of chicken to waffle was right, and it had nicely crisped edges. I have been promised that the leftovers will reheat nicely in my toaster oven! Winston's pairs with Crimson Cup and serves CC's seasonal and regular menu items. I very much appreciated that 1 - you can get a half waffle and 2 - the entire breakfast menu wasn't topped with or served with bacon. I haven't been to the truck location yet, but I certainly will!

Baron waffle with bacon, egg and cheese and peppermint mocha
Brittany S.

Great breakfast spot in East Market! I stopped before work one morning (believe they open at 7:30 am) and got the bacon, egg and cheese Baron waffle and a peppermint mocha with oatmilk. The coffee was PERFECT. Good quality, not overly sweet. My waffle sandwich was pretty good as well. I love that they use sharp cheddar because I hate American "cheese". I did notice chunks of sugar in my waffle which I did not enjoy though. I don't know if they used some kind of candied bacon or what, but could have lived without that. Cashier and barista were super friendly. I'll be back for sure!

The Buckeye
Marissa C.

Winston's offers several varieties of waffles, including a common style, a Crown (Liege) style, and a Baron style, and each of the styles has several different options. We were intrigued by the toppings offered for the Crown and decided to try out the Buckeye, which comes topped with drizzles of Nutella and Reese's peanut butter sauce. It was great presentation! It was pretty tasty, but we're especially curious to try the common style in the future and compare to the Liege style, because the texture did seem different. We're not coffee drinkers, but it looked like they offer a nice selection of coffees from what I could tell - a variety of hot, iced, and specialty options. Staff was friendly. They also offer gluten free and vegan waffles.

I got a regular size of Mocha and I really like it. The chocolate is slight stronger and stand out. The drink taste very smooth as well. They also have other offering of sandwiches and waffles, which I have to come back and check it out.

Finally made it to brunch at East Market and Winston's Coffee and Waffles! The whole menu can be made gluten free! I had blueberry waffles that were so fluffy and full of the most delicious blueberries! My son picked crown style waffle with Nutella, banana chips, strawberries and whipped cream...he loved it! He also got a Iced Latte that was delicious...to quote him "it's better than Starbucks!" We'll be back!

Food was just ok and prices were outrageous for the small size of the serving. I wouldn't consider a return visit. Coffee was good

I This location is part of the East Market and I think many people don't realize they are open for breakfast.

What a cool vibe this former gas station puts off. Great people, good atmosphere. But even more…read moreimportantly is the insanely good food that comes out of it. Let's start with the pancake balls. The signature dish is absolutely out of this world. You can get them filled with Nutella, dulce de leche or Apple/Pumpkin butter. These little morsels of goodness are worth the trip alone. We also had the Pueblo BLT Sammy with the sweet and spicy bacon (that's right this is a thing that must be tried to be believed). This sandwich was so good and don't sleep on the homemade citrus aioli - outstanding. Our table also had the hens in a basket. Eggs cooked perfectly and the bread had a sweetness to it that made it just right. OUTSTANDING FOOD! And we will be back

I have never had okonomiyake but now I have gotta try making it at home. White and purple potatoes in the okonomiyake flour with corn, cabbage and topped with a perfectly over-medium egg and delicious piri-piri and citrus aioli (with a side of vegetarian sausage patties) and hibiscus tea! Exactly what I was in the mood for and perfectly cooked. The hot vanilla tea was good also- Its a bit noisy inside but I'd like to try more food.

We started with a Hot Apple Cider, topped with maple-infused whipped cream and cinnamon, along with a couple of hot coffees. The cider was warm, comforting, and full of cozy fall flavors. Unfortunately, the self-serve coffee station wasn't kept stocked, and after waiting quite a while for a refill, we eventually gave up. For breakfast, we ordered two Mushroom Frittatas, a Fresh Buttermilk Biscuit, and a side of Housemade Breakfast Sausage. The Mushroom Frittata featured three hearth-baked eggs with roasted mushrooms, sweet onions, and Gruyère cheese, served alongside breakfast potatoes and a peppery arugula salad. It was flavorful, hearty, and incredibly satisfying. Although I informed the staff about my peanut allergy, I was surprised to find the crispy breakfast potatoes on my plate, which left me uncertain whether the allergy request had been fully communicated to the kitchen. The Fresh Buttermilk Biscuit, served with strawberry preserves, was one of the highlights of the meal. It was flaky, buttery, and wonderfully moist, pairing perfectly with the sweet preserves. The Housemade Breakfast Sausage consisted of two peppery pork patties that were juicy and well-seasoned, making a great accompaniment to the rest of the meal. Overall, we enjoyed a delicious and filling breakfast with fresh, high-quality ingredients. While I wish the coffee station had been monitored more closely and that greater care had been taken regarding my food allergy, the Mushroom Frittata and fresh biscuit alone make Northstar Café worth returning to.
