    Took my son and nephew in for ice cream after a day at the main Columbus Library. The interior is very small. A few tables and some chairs. It was hard to see the flavors through their case, as it had become frosted. It was nice to be able to try a flavor though before ordering. We enjoyed the peanut butter tilly tracks and birthday cake flavors on a chocolate waffle bowl. I liked that they had a waffle bowl option. You can add toppings for extra. The ice cream was good, but nothing I found that was very unique from other shops.

    A nice addition to the 5xNW area. Upon walking in, you're sure to be greeted by a smiling face offering you ample samples. I tried several...enough to say that some were good and some were great (because can ice cream really be bad...?) My favorite: the brown butter bourbon truffle. A small cup contains two scoops, so I paired my favorite with a butter pecan scoop which was a good choice. I love the service there. During my scoop samples, I gravitated toward their two cheesecake flavors. So then they let me try a small sample of the off menu strawberry cheesecake sundae. Toft'a will be a hard temptation to resist during the warmer summer months.

    A sweet new addition to Grandview. Staff was very personable and gave great customer service. Space is small but cheerful. I could see it being very tight inside when it gets crowded, as the ordering area is narrow and there are only a few tables. Parking is challenging in the strip mall, as it is shared with lots of other businesses. I got a sundae. It was mostly all ice cream with hardly any sauces, but it was a very generous amount of ice cream. The chocolate peanut butter was rich, creamy and had great pb flavor. It was some of the best ice cream I have had locally. They had about 20 different flavors and they also sell cartons of pre scooped ice cream to take home.

    Brown Butter Bourbon Truffle and Brownie Bandit

    I love this place! I got two scoops of the Brown Butter Bourbon Truffle and Brownie Bandit and they were so delicious. I didn't even know this place existed since it's relatively small in a busy plaza, but I'm so glad I happened upon it! I know Jeni's and Graeter's are hard to beat, but this might be one of my go-to ice cream places now. I would highly suggest everyone tries it out!

    So many options

    Pros: Good location on 5th Delicious, creamy ice cream - so many options! Friendly staff You can get a pint (or two!) to go Cons: Small space Not much seating Kind of pricey Parking in this strip can be tricky Pro tip: Get a look at the googley eyes on your scoop - a cute touch!

    Small cup with moose tracks and chocolate peanut butter

    I grew up with Tofts and having it available locally again is so amazing! The scoop shop is cute and clean with a little seating area and a big selection of flavors. (Note: dole whip will be on offer soon, but isn't available as of mid January.) I've been in twice and always am greeted and given great customer service. First visit I got a pre-packed pint to go (strawberry cheesecake - so good!) Today I got a small cup (2 scoops and you can pick 2 flavors.) I got moose tracks and chocolate peanut butter - such s good combo! It was hard to pick!! The eyes on top made my inner child so happy! I hope the scoop shop does really well because I love it so much. To try soon: blueberry waffle cone + butter pecan!

    Popped in on a Friday evening to give this a try. Service was good and the person behind the counter was helpful with information and tastings as needed. I only got a small to try which was 2 scoops. The value for the money compared to some other ice cream places is good. I definitely want to go back and try some different options including the ice cream sandwiches!

    Great service, great ice cream! Shop is a bit small but in the summer most people probably take the ice cream outside.

    Great meals with philosophical friends (2 of 2)…read more Rarely am I in Midwestern capital cities with beltways around them, but I do have a few friends from years ago who do live in this city's suburbs. I once ate at their famed German restaurant with the lunch buffet and the extra cost cream puffs with an Italian-American friend who is sort of an Archie Bunker with an MBA. He provides the entertainment. The last time I ate lunch in C-bus with that good friend was before the pandemic. I believe that the lunch buffet has returned to that German restaurant, but I can wait to do that on some other trip. On this last go round, I met up for lunch with a different friend with whom you can discuss the human condition ad nauseam, which is somewhat of a good thing. It's a good thing because there aren't many people who are capable of doing that and who will engage in that. However, when you wrap up such involved discussions, you might feel a little overwhelmed for a while! I got to choose the restaurant ... from out of town. I didn't like the choices with which I was presented and the only area of town I really know is the Polaris area around Ikea. I looked up listings and recommendations. Chocolate Cafe' had two things under its belt from the get-go. It's a high scoring bistro-cafe that has a noteworthy breakfast and lunch following and it has the word "chocolate" in its name. It's in that area near the Barnes and Noble west of the big state university with its logo featuring a branch that looks like a marijuana leaf. I have since learned it's not a marijuana leaf. We ordered lunch, with one entree being a Cobb salad and the other being one of their club sandwiches, the latter of which was mine. It was very good and, as is often the case with me, I could have eaten a bigger sandwich. I went through it fairly quickly, even though I did have the small and cheap Swedish breakfast at Ikea that morning. With the entrees, we ordered bowls of their popular tomato basil soup, which really hit the spot on that cold day. To drink, we ordered house coffee and a hot chocolate. The house coffee is refillable while the hot chocolate is not, but that's standard protocol just about anywhere. With a name like Chocolate Cafe,' we did not order dessert. My friend left first and I stayed behind to look at the dessert case. I later caved in for a slice of their moist and rich chocolate fudge cake to take with me. Like I said, it was moist and rich ... and also very tasty and filling. The pricing here is standard and appropriate. The service was folksy and very attentive, despite their being full on a weekend approaching the holidays. The interior is bright because of the floor-to-ceiling windows around the perimeter of the restaurant. That really scores points with me. Lastly, upon pulling in, the parking lot was full and I had to park a short walk away, all the while paying attention to parking signs and rules. This implied that Chocolate Cafe' was most likely a good place ... and that was corroborated. I have never driven down I-71 into this city's center once past its beltway. I have doglegged and taken Highway 315 - the Olentangy River Parkway. At its top end, it winds a little and it's slightly scenic. As you start approaching OSU, all these different medical towers with different specialties loom over you ... from both sides of the road! It's similar to the feeling one gets when they drive past the Texas Medical Center south of downtown Houston, as in, "What a maze ... why so many damn medical buildings?" But that doesn't affect their rating. It's just a personal pet peeve. I'm going to go with 4.5 stars for Chocolate Cafe', which obviously rounds up to 5 stars. It makes for an interesting meal and experience and, while I would not repeat it like clockwork because of how rich it can be, I could definitely see repeating it if I lived in its general area. My friend said he would be coming back with family members. That said, you clearly see two seals of approval.

    Driving around the OSU area and wanted to find some local coffee. We had driven by the Chocolate…read moreCafé a couple times already and decided to stop in for a coffee. The store is so cute. There is decent parking and ample seating. We were just taking coffee to go, but it seemed like a great place to be able to meet with friends, get some work done, or enjoy a quiet moment. Our coffee was good. There weren't a ton of options for customizing, but the ones they had were great. We didn't get any of the signature chocolates to go (big mistake on our part), but the case was tempting. If you're in the area, skip the chains and head to Chocolate Café.
