38th Street Coffee Columbus

One-line is a great place for coffee! The Baristas are super friendly, and helpful with the menu. There always seems to be room for studying, or room to sit down and chat with others.

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.
