I met a friend for Saturday breakfast and were seated as soon as they opened the door. We had a wonderful young woman as our server. Sophia was very personable, knowledgeable and happy to answer our questions. I started with the Pistachio Latte that was the perfect flavor and I enjoyed it very much. I chose the Omelet as my entree. It was so good, served with potatoes and sourdough toast. A sliced avocado was on the plate; I put it on top of the salad. Delicious. They have many pastries and a large selection of hot and cold drinks. It's a really beautifully decorated space. There is a swing for photo ops. Comfortable seating, and plenty of parking. Tip: their crepes, french toast, and pancakes are listed on the menu under desserts. read more

Decor was a pink and floral explosion! If you are looking for a place to take a cute picture, this is it. Went first thing when they opened, so no waiting time. There's not tons of seating so I can see why wait times can be long during peak periods. Shout out to our server Cam, who was full of energy and recommendations. I got the iced pistachio latte, Eggs Benedict, and a peach mouse. The meal was good and my favorite part was the peach mouse. It had large chunks of peach inside to give it a nice freshness. I regretted not getting the Berry Waffles because it was sooo good. I got to take a bite before my friend devoured it. Can't wait to come back to try the lunch/dinner options. Tip: The pastries and desserts options were not at full selection. Not sure if it was because it was first thing in the morning but it was a bummer. Also no online to go orders at the moment read more

Place was cute, influencer/Instagram coded. The mango dessert was very good! I got the hot pistachio latte with oat milk. It was not very good. Tasted like hot pistachio water. The person I was with got the Spanish latte, which was pretty good. read more

Pink Pistachio Cafe is such a cute and aesthetically pleasing spot. The atmosphere is beautiful, and the drinks and food are presented really well. I enjoyed my drink and had a great experience overall. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent service. My only downside is the pricing. In my opinion, it's a bit expensive for a coffee shop, with drinks typically costing around $7-$10. While everything looks beautiful and tastes good, it's not somewhere I would personally visit on a regular basis because of the cost. That said, it's definitely a fun place to treat yourself every once in a while and enjoy the atmosphere. read more

TL;DR: Make a reservation immediately. They are pulling 90-120 minute wait times, but the execution makes it worth your patience. Located in a plaza with plenty of parking, this spot has only been open a week but is already operating with a high-end, highly intentional aesthetic. The interior leans into an elevated, glam-feminine vibe that feels incredibly purposeful. We walked into a 2-hour wait, so we opted to order from the cafe and wait on their gorgeous patio. The pistachio latte (with almond milk) and the affogato came to $33 with tip. Both were stellar. The baristas are currently in the trenches with the opening-week volume, but they are crushing it. The Food: * The Highs: The pistachio croissant had proper lamination perfectly flaky and buttery, balanced beautifully by the sweet cream interior. The fruit and yogurt bowl was a massive, refreshing portion that easily justified its price point. The biscoff crepe hit all the right notes, served with an excellent house-made ice cream (though the colorful sprinkles felt a bit disjointed from the elevated plating). The pistachio latte is the real deal. * The Lows: The Mediterranean omelette was a mixed bag. The eggs were executed perfectly, but the vegetables lacked seasoning despite a bright, promising presentation. The side salad arrived undressed, the sourdough toast lacked a proper crunch, and the tomato ratio was overwhelming. The Quirks: They are clearly trying to keep up with bathroom maintenance, but the sheer volume of opening week meant they were out of paper products. Strangely, the bathroom soundtrack is entirely disconnected from the cafe's ambiance--we were surprised to hear explicit club rap playing over the speakers. Verdict: Opening week growing pains are visible, but the culinary foundation is solid. Absolutely worth a return trip. I hope their momentum continues! read more

Pink Pistachio Cafe in Grandview Heights is an upscale, all‑halal, alcohol‑free café that delivers both quality food and excellent service. My sister and I spent about 45 minutes dining here, and I was genuinely impressed that the food stayed hot and fresh the entire time. The Buttermilk Fried Chicken was delicious--crispy, well-seasoned, and served perfectly hot. The Pistachio Latte was a standout and easily one of the best I've had. What makes it special is the pistachio added around the rim of the glass, which enhances both the flavor and presentation. Our server, Ali R, was attentive and consistently checked in to make sure we were doing well without being intrusive. The rest of the staff also regularly checked on guests, which added to the welcoming and professional atmosphere. Overall, the food quality, unique drinks, and attentive service made this a great dining experience. I would absolutely return and highly recommend Pink Pistachio Cafe to anyone looking for a high-quality café in the Columbus area. read more

- drinks are incredibly overpriced, paid 6$ for less than 6 ounces of hot tea which tasted like ground up flowers. The chai tasted like hot pistachio water not chai. There are many drink options but so many limitations (no ice, no milk, no special requirements) - my water had a hair in it that was not my own. - food is overpriced and they were out of literally everything. They market as a cafe but do not serve any dishes with eggs past 3pm despite staying open much later than this. We had three sandwiches with chicken and they had such little chicken on them half of the sandwich was just bread. - atmosphere is horrible. From the outside it looks cute and Instagram influencer style but it's LOUD inside with no noise control. The tables are incredibly small you will bump into the people you are sitting with. The waiters are inattentive and don't know what is available and what is not. - the checks can only be split four ways so make sure you don't come with too many friends. 12% gratuity is added but not mentioned upon arrival or at checkout unless you notice so do not tip even when they ask. Overall incredibly disappointing experience, do not come here, this place is definitely one of those in and out of business quickly kind of restaurants read more

Ambiance is great. Very pretty. They could use some sound dampening on walls or ceiling as it is excessively loud. Food was good. Pricing seems high plus they add a 12% service fee for dining in on top of total before tip. I guess it's good for people who don't dine in. Adding it in across all their sales they could pay their staff themselves. This seems like a more approachable pricing solution and wouldn't put off customers. I can see that if your prices are high already it's a way to get around the perceived pricing issue. $9 for a virgin mojito plus 12% is out of line for me. I will not be returning but wish them all the luck. read more

Pink Pistachio - Service fee - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

very kind staff and great service, but this is what i would call an "instagram restaurant" which is nice if you enjoy frilly, pink, floral murals and neon signs made for cute brunch photos, but not if you enjoy eating and tasting(!) food. our drinks were pretty but bland, and i fought to give my burger a chance, but it tasted like paint. which makes me sad because i hate wasting food. and their playlist (consisting of purely pop covers) was short and restarted within 45 minutes of us eating there. idk why but i found that distracting. not a good sensory experience for me all around. but again, if you like taking pictures more than you like eating or drinking or listening to music, knock yourself out. this is a generous 3. read more

While I realize they are still getting started at this location, there's several things that just didn't sit right with my group when we went here. First of all, the 12% dine in fee was a bit ridiculous, especially since they didn't give us an option when we walked in the door. Then on top of that you still are expected to tip your server, so basically around 32% additional fees. Other than that the food was pretty good and the aesthetic of the place was pretty unique. I'd just say if you go, maybe skip out on dining in if you're not planning on spending too much? read more

Sophia took excellent care of us today. We had the berry waffle and buffalo chicken sandwich, both were exceptional! I also love the ambiance in the cafe. It's giving pretty in pink, princess fairy vibes. Loved it all! Will come back read more

Disorganized. Very loud and music on top of it that you could barely hear. Didn't clear the table of menus and as we finished dishes. Served coke in bottle with a straw. Waitress seemed confused. The 12 percent fee was ridiculous for cooks bus people but not for waitstaff. We weren't told a head of time so we did not leave a tip. Food was ok but over priced. Will not go back. read more

Giving a neutral review since it's my first time, they are the new kid in the block and I did a to go order. What I ordered: Mediterranean Omelet (the host said it's one of the most popular dishes) & a hot Rosella Tea. -Omelette was tomato heavy. I wish it had a sauce of sorts to drizzle. Had to add pepper and hot sauce as it was a bit bland. Overall a pretty basic dish. The sourdough was delicious! -Tea was good. You can only order teas hot (outside of matcha and chai). I didn't get honey that I asked for but the barista was learning and new. Price/Time: I wet during lunch time at 12pm and didn't wait long. 2 items was 23 dollars.... Likely will not go often due to the price or I find something I am in love with. read more

Went in for the cafe but didn't realize it was a full sit down restaurant. It seemed a bit disorganized and prices are on the higher end but the pink pistachio chai was pretty good. Will have to come back and check out the food. read more

I don't care how delicious anything is, if you charge 12% to sit down and expect a 20% tip that's 32% expense before you factor in the overpriced food and drinks. I think this is extremely ignorant for a new business to Columbus Ohio and we will NEVER be back. Wait, maybe next door they will open a "kick you in the nuts cafe" and there will be a 15% charge to sit down... that sounds better. read more
