38th Street Coffee

I frequent the Franklinton location, but this was my first time to the short north location. I will say that if you're traveling to either, I would still choose the Franklinton location, parking is easier and they make food there, really, really good food. They have only a small selection of pastries at this location. Being in the Short North, there's a lot around if you're trying to go to a few places, but parking is a pain if you just want a coffee. I had a shot of espresso and a chocolate muffin. Espresso was good, if not a touch sour. I had to get the Method espresso as the single origin was not dialed in. I did appreciate them letting me know this and not just serving a bad shot though. The chocolate muffin tasted good, but was dry. The best part about this location is that it is where they do their coffee education. I attended a cupping lead by Corey and it was a great experience. It was my first cupping and interesting to see the process. The coffees were mostly great or at least very interesting. I still believe one line has the best coffee in the city and highly recommend attending a cupping or class here. For coffee and food, I still prefer the Franklinton location.

An adorable and quaint coffee shop in downtown Columbus. The signature Milligan’s maple latte was amazing and extremely flavorful! Coffee cake was soft, crumbly and a delicious pair to my latte. The staff was very friendly, hard working and made my stop here pleasant! I will absolutely come back again!
