Viral coffee cart opening brick-and-mortar soon

A coffee cart known for Instagram-worthy lattes, matchas, and seasonal flavors is expanding to a brick-and-mortar cafe. Apollo Coffee will open in New Albany later this month. The coffee cart first opened in March 2026 at Oakland Nurseries in New Albany. The company announced their highly anticipated brick-and-mortar transition via social media. The post said, “HAPPY GRAND OPENING! We have been anticipating this day for so long, since we signed for our space back in May. Countless nights, early mornings, moments where we didn’t think we could cross the finish line. All of it has led us to right now. All because of you. We cannot wait to see your faces when you walk into the new Apollo Coffee. It truly feels like a home, and that’s exactly what we wanted to build for this community … With our new space opening and seasons changing, our trailer’s last day open will be 11/18. We will have updates in the future on our plans with the trailer, but for right now we want to focus on our brick and mortar and bringing a quality experience to each and every one of you.”

Ringside Cafe serves burgers with a side of old Columbus

Columbus has plenty of places to grab a burger and a beer, but few have been doing it since 1897 like Ringside Café. Why it matters: This downtown hole-in-the-wall is a throwback to an older Columbus — full of history, kitschy personality and darn good burgers. Zoom in: Ringside sits along Pearl Street, an eclectic alley lined with colorful graffiti and quirky businesses. A nearly-building-long contemporary mural in the patio area show's Columbus native James "Buster" Douglas' infamous knockout of "Iron Mike" Tyson. The vibe: Inside, dark wood and exposed brick fill a cozy dining room that fits only a couple tables and a few booths. There are a handful of stools at the bar as well. There's vintage boxing memorabilia and paintings everywhere. It didn't feel like this was anyone's first time at Ringside. Around noon on a Saturday , a few older gentlemen sipped beers and talking sports like they'd been doing it for decades. The TVs aren't great and there's no surround sound, but nobody seemed to care. Best bites: Burgers dominate the boxing-inspired menu, including the monstrous, 1 1/2-pound Buster Douglas ($32). I ordered the Smokin' Joe BBQ Burger ($15), topped with bacon, cheddar and barbecue
