Delicious! Bigger inside than it looks, super bright and cute. Had a patio, but it was a lil chilly this morning... a shame that I was too full to try a sweet treat. Def get the potato side w/ housemade ketchup (slight spice)! read more

So good you need to get there early in order to get what you crave! People absolutely love this place! Everything is so delicious and made with so much care, it's hard to walk by without popping in to see what they have! read more

We've tried a few of their baked goods, orange ricotta muffin, and cheddar scallion biscuit. Both were very good, but a bit pricey :)

I just keep coming back for the cauliflower Reuben. It really satisfies my sandwich needs. The simple salad that comes with it is so great too, love the gingery dressing. My nephew got the ham biscuit and loved it. Such a cute interior, love the baked good options and all the items for sale. read more

Despite being a Jersey Boy, I prefer biscuits over bagels. Yeah, yeah, yeah: sacrilege. But I just think they're so much better and more versatile. And hard to find in the tri state area. But out here in the Midwest they do not play games. The biscuits here at Dough Mama might be worth relocating for. I love the vibe of the place as well as the food. The merch is cool and I just love the whole charming Americana aesthetic. The employees are super swell as well. My pie just came....yes, we stopped by again on our road trip...got a go. read more

A cute spot, friendly staff... Still thinking about that chicken pot pie... delish!! Next time will try the pecan pie.

Dough Mama is the best! When someone suggests brunch, it immediately comes to mind. They are famous for their pies but their breakfast and lunch menu should not be overlooked. My all-time favorite is the avocado biscuit with the side salad (you can even buy a jar of the amazing umami soy sauce-ish dressing to take home!). I also have enjoyed many a seasonal quiche. Unique to DM is a wall to the left when you walk in that has slips of pre-paid items you can tear off and present at the ordering counter. If you can't afford a meal or need a little pampering, this is a great opportunity to care for the Clintonville community. Cute gifts adorn their entrance area and the vibe is eclectic and homey. read more

Their biscuit sandwich is so good! And the lavender lemon pie is really tasty (except for the lavender buds! Seeds?). Their name is perfect bc their pie crust and baked goods are amazing. A bit on the pricey side, but a great place to bring out of town visitors so they can see how good the food in cbus is! read more

Still a solid five stars. I've been dozens if not hundreds of times since they opened, and every single thing has been good, usually great. Baked goods, meals, coffee, whatever. And always great service. Yesterday stopped in with Baby K. Not a lot of things on the menu for little kids (except all the pastries she wanted,) but we got an egg and ham a la carte, and she had some of my lox toast. Everything was tasty and perfect. They have apple juice in cans, and orange juice in glasses, and I'm sure milk, so she was covered. Service was excellent and kid-friendly, even though it's more a grown-up place. Prices are good for quantity and quality. I have stopped in for lunch, snacks, to commission a pie, always had a great experience and awesome food. The owner and employees make the experience even better. read more

If you are looking for breakfast.... Go here If you are looking for cute cafe that has that locally owned feeling and charm.... Go here. If you want the "perfect" cheddar biscuit... and its a star of many of their menu items- well, it can be found at DoughMama. If you want great service... Go here! If you haven't gotten in your car.... Why, not? We had the avocado biscuit sandwich and the Lox toast. Both out of this world. Cant wait to try more things. I was blown away by every single element of this place. Open til 3pm. Yummy! One of the best breakfasts Ive had in Cbus in 30 years. Thanks DoughMama. Note: the salad is served with a soy vinaigrette, for 2 bucks more you can get Cajun redskin potatoes.... If you dont like soy sauce (like me) --- get those. No thanks needed! So good! read more

Standard breakfast/lunch fair close to OSU. Ambiance is of a local place, which we tend to gravitate toward and prefer. Prices are a bit high for a type of place it is, but they seem to be very busy and popular. read more

Wow!! I can't believe I hadn't tried dough mama sooner. The cheddar scallion biscuit was recommended to us by the employees so I went with the ham biscuit which includes a thick slice of ham, fried egg, micro greens, and an aioli! The biscuit is flavorful and soft on the inside but crispy on the outside. I also loved the roasted potatoes and their homemade ketchup. I also tried their seasonal cold brew latte, which was peppermint/candy cane! It was delightful! I hope to come back again and try their cereal milk latte and some of their pastries! The vibe is so cute and cozy as well! All the employees were so kind too! read more

I was glad to be able to make it over here for a quick breakfast takeout order. I love supporting small business, and they seem to be doing very well with a steady stream of customers. The cafe interior is really charming and thoughtfully decorated. You can tell they are heavily invested in the local community. The dining room area is small but very welcoming. I tried the quiche of the day and a maple cold brew latte. As seems to be a theme in my reviews these days...the prices were a bit shocking to me. A very small piece of quiche was $14. I guess this is the norm now, but my brain is having trouble adjusting. The quiche had good flavor, but was extremely salty. Oddly, the salad dressing was also very salty. It tasted like straight soy sauce (?). The coffee was the star of the show. Cold, creamy and not overly sweet. I loved the subtle maple flavor. read more

Always phenomenal - I dream of their kitchen sink salad. I used to buy their salad dressing and bring it in my checked bag back home to AZ.

If you like restaurants that you walk into only to be stared at by the staff and not helped , this is your spot! I went to Bob Evans and was greeted immediately by a friendly staff member. read more

Everything tasted scratch made and you can tell effort has been put into their dishes that you wouldn't achieve had it been something out of the frozen food sections of Gordon Food Services, Sams Club, Costcos, ALDIs, Krogers, or SAV A Lot. I didn't eat inside yet those that did got me some bacon egg and cheese pie and some buckeye pie. Both tasted fine but the slices could've been bigger. Not Cheesecake Factory big but slightly bigger if you catch my drift. Those that ate inside ranted and raved about it but again I didn't which is why I give it 3 stars. It's tasty though kinda like a fox in the snow with less calories maybe. Give em a go. read more

A coworker and I were hitting up the Winter Fair craft show and decided to meet up early for brunch. I brought up homemade biscuit breakfast sandwiches to her and she was sold. I had a bit of an ulterior motive because I was planning on trying their sweet baked goods, as well. The entrance was tiny, but inviting. They have a great little menu with tempting options. I was torn between the avocado biscuit or the salmon lox. They were kind enough to put the salmon on a biscuit for me- best of both worlds. They don't have an espresso machine, so the only hot coffee option was regular drip. The little chalkboard menu by the register had a cold brew pumpkin maple option that sounded epic. We ordered and headed into the adorably decorated dining room. Drinks arrived first and the cold brew was incredible. The drip coffee was self-serve, which is great because that meant refills were included. The biscuit was of a cheddar scallion variety and it was crumbly and packed with flavor. The sandwich was rich and creamy from the avocado, the pickled red onions cut through the salty lox and the greens added a lovely peppery bite. The potatoes were really well seasoned and perfectly cooked. The pumpkin scone had a lovely texture. It wasn't dry or dense. It had great flavor and maybe pumpkin is the secret to that moister dough. The glaze was perfect and not overly sweet. The brown butter pumpkin pie was rich. It was smooth and reminded me of dates. The crust was buttery and had more of a denser biscuit quality. It was not your typical pumpkin pie. Everything we ate was just special. I couldn't eat like this every day, but it was exactly what I wanted out of brunch. Service was great. The guy who helped us at the register was extremely patient with me when I changed my drink order, answered my million questions, and offered up his suggestions. We both found street parking in front of the cafe and the dining room had not yet filled up when we arrived a half hour after opening. read more

Dough Mama is a quaint little farm to table restaurant right off High Street in Clintonville. Everything is made from scratch, and they serve both breakfast and lunch. I ordered the ham biscuit and a drip coffee. The biscuit sandwich comes with an over-easy egg, greens, pickled onion, horseradish sauce on a cheddar scallion biscuit, and you have the option for either a salad or breakfast potatoes. You order at the counter and they bring the food out to your table, of which there are a handful (the inside is small but cute). The coffee was really good, and they offer free refills if you're dining in. The biscuit sandwich was alright, but didn't 'wow' me. The ham was a bit chewy and I didn't really notice the horseradish sauce. I was expecting more sauce to balance out the dry texture of the biscuit. The potatoes were cut too large in my opinion, as they were more soft than crunchy. On top of this, it cost $19 for just the sandwich and coffee. I understand the whole farm to table mantra using locally sourced, all-natural ingredients where you expect to pay for quality. However, I left disappointed with the food for that price. read more

Dough mama is probably my favorite weekend brunch spot. My friend and I were waiting in line on the morning that they re-opened the dining room. We were the only people waiting for a table that day, but dang it, I want credit! :) I love their avocado biscuit. Other than pastries, I can't think of anything else I have ordered, though the chicken biscuit looks intriguing. They actually offer several vegetarian breakfast options, which is pretty great. The biscuits are a good size and have a great garlic cheese flavor. it's loaded with avocado, tomato, greens, and a cooked to order egg. It comes with salad, but I've had their potatoes before and they were lovely. I'd probably recommend anything in the bakery case. The lemon lavender and honey apple pies are staples, and so good! Flaky crust, flavor fillings! They sold a Christmas cookie box this year that was pretty great. And my friend waits all year for the Matcha Grinch cookies at Christmas! I'm currently loving the Orange Ricotta muffin - it's dense, moist, and citrusy. read more

Don't come for bakery carry out! They put your order in a long line of dine-in and food orders and you'll wait 20+ minutes for someone to throw a cookie in a bag. Lesson learned! Seems like a popular place for dine-in, that service is prioritized and the place smells DELICIOUS. read more

This was absolutely delicious. Ordered a take out feast after the gym. The biscuits are SO FLUFFY and flakey even to go. Loved the avocado biscuit. We also enjoyed the biscuits and gravy (sausage) which was the perfect comfort food. The savory bread pudding was really interesting. You think it's going to be sweet because it looks like a pie, but it is savory through and through. So good! Lox was also fresh and tasty. The only thing that could have made that toast better is some acidity... tomato maybe. Really need these biscuits in my life more often. Thanks for a great lunch! read more

We've been meaning to come here for breakfast for a while. It's a very casual place where you order at the counter and they bring the food to you. I got their sausage biscuit and sausage gravy, which came with a crispy biscuit, egg, and a generous helping of sausage gravy. This was very good if you're a sausage gravy and biscuit fan. My wife ordered an avocado and egg sandwich -- this was just okay -- perhaps because my wife got the toasted bread instead of the biscuit. All in all a good place to come to get a quick bite. But a bit on the pricey side for what you get. read more

Let me start off with WOW! I had been wanting to try this little spot for a while and it did not disappoint. I had the avocado biscuit with potatoes and a piece of strawberry rhubarb pie. Everything was spectacular. I started with the s'mores cold brew which was great. When I go again, I'd probably just get a regular coffee, but because it was my first time I wanted to try something fun. The avocado biscuit and potatoes were definitely the star of the show. I could eat that cheddar scallion biscuit it came on for the rest of my life and be happy. The only downside to this place is it definitely is pricey especially for a coffee shop style experience. Because the food was so stellar though, I will definitely be back read more

As a parent of two children who are too young to get the COVID vaccine, this is my go to place - the staff is masked, they have a great patio, and awesome food (and gluten-free options are a cherry on the cake)!

Wow! I went in without much expectation, because this place isn't in my neighborhood. Parking was tricky, due to being on high street. We went in and they are operating under covid restrictions. There were a dozen or two items as choices, and I could have eaten any. I chose an iced matcha latte, and a biscuit and sausage gravy (and fried egg), as well as a side of roasted red potatoes. My wife chose ice water and the same as me. In all honesty, the price was a bit unexpected and I feared a disappointment might be forthcoming. There is no dining inside the restaurant, but there are several tables in front of the store. The food came out. I opened the potatoes first. They were nicely fried but a bit light on salt...until I dipped into the "catsup" which tasted better than any I have tasted before. I wonder if it is house made? In any case, great to eat. Then I opened the biscuit and gravy. Firstly, this is not a plain old biscuit. It is tall, and flakey and so buttery tasting. And then there is the cheese and scallions and...I don't know... elfin magic perhaps? Then there is some of the best gravy I have had since I lost my mom and grandparents years ago! And atop it all was a fried egg. I might see if I can get a runny yolk next time...it's the only thing missing. The tea was delicious, with the only sad thing being I didn't order two of them. read more

My favorite brunch spot in Columbus! Biscuits are so good, as as the baked goods, the pancakes, and the kitchen sink salads. The employees are so kind and welcoming.

They are very patient as I always ponder over the various pastry options for way too long. Highly recommend, hope they stay here forever read more
