Exploring Ohio’s Capital
COLUMBUS, OHIO — As Ohio’s largest city, Columbus has a lot going on. It’s the state capital, as well as home to Ohio State University, and you’ll also find plenty of museums and cute neighborhoods for strolling around (the brick-lined streets of German Village are particularly pretty). It’s easy to spend a weekend here, and whether you’re heading in for an OSU game or just want to hang out and eat, the itinerary below includes our vetted picks for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and three bars, plus what you should try at each. Book a room at the Graduate Hotel Columbus — it’s in Short North, so it’s located in a bustling area. That area includes North Market, a 148-year-old busy public market that’s also home to the first location of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams, so swing by for a scoop during your stay. Let’s go explore Columbus!
