    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.

    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!

    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!

    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!

It's a small place where you grab and go - no seating. But you come in and you're greeted by friendly staff and a wonderful display of options in savory and sweet or blended. I had the chicken biscuit with cheese and bacon and ranch. The chicken is BAKED not fried and was sitting in dill - so it was absolutely DIVINE. I also couldn't help myself to the soft pretzel with cinnamon butter. SO GOOD. It's super doughy so not really the generic pretzel consistency but I was so happy. If you're celiac, you'll love feeling safe here as EVERYTHING IS GF and the kitchen is gf. I regret not buying the flour to bring home :(

It's just one of those things that you miss when you have to stop eating gluten. I preordered for pickup, and walked right by it twice before I noticed the sign. Walked in and was greeted quickly from someone in the back. I loved seeing the options on display and lots of signage, such a cute little space. I got blueberry and cinnamon biscuits, being vegetarian I couldn't have the sandwich options but loved seeing them. Gotta say, loved them both but the cinnamon was definitely my favorite. I think a non gluten-free eater wouldn't even notice a difference. I will definitely get them again, I see I can order them on delivery apps too.

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.

The kind of spot where you expect a solid beer and maybe some decent bar food. What you don't expect? One of the best Detroit-style pizzas of your life hiding behind a window in the back like some carb-based speakeasy. And when I say hidden, I mean hidden. No flashy signage. No "best pizza in town" ego. Just a quiet little window cranking out square pies that deserve a standing ovation. I ordered the classic red top -- already a bold move -- and added pesto because balance matters and I like to live a little. The result? Beyond reproach. Fresh, loaded toppings. Sauce with depth. And that crust... that beautiful Detroit crust. Crispy edges with that caramelized cheese halo, but still chewy and pillowy inside. The textural contrast is what separates amateurs from legends -- and this? This was legend-level execution. Easily top 3 Detroit-style pizzas I've had. And that's not a casual statement. If you don't understand the life-altering power of true Detroit-style pizza, I regret to inform you... you have not been living. Go find the window in the back. Trust me.
