If Randy S. thought Worthington Square Mall was in dire condition in 2008, he does not want to go back now.  I remember coming here when I was a child but childhood memories are not so good.  I also came here frequently when I lived in Clintonville…More »

Its easy.  But its also a cop out.  I've stopped here so many times because I've been on Capitol Hill and wanted something quick to eat and I've always been disappointed that I have.  The food quality is terrible, there are horrible, long lines,…More »

I really liked flying Air Canada from London to Columbus until I got to Canada and that just ruined my entire experience.

I had a flight departed London with a 2 hour layover in Toronto and then on to Columbus.  When my flight left London late, I was…More »

Its the service that brought down the rating here.  A friend and I stopped by here for a drink before our dinner reservation.  There was no one in the place yet as it was fairly early and every table was empty.  We went over to one of the tables and…More »

We had been talking about getting a cat for awhile, so when 2 teeny, starving ones just randomly showed up in our backyard we took that as a sign that we had found our cats!  We'd had outdoor cats before and knew what happens when they aren't fixed…More »

If you're grading this place on being a dive bar, then it deserves 5 stars.  But I was looking for someplace fun to hang out and this was not it.  There was hardly anyone in the place besides us.  I guess this did mean we were served quicker =P and…More »

I have only come here for the coffee side of things not the lounge.  I generally like Cup o'Joe, but every other one I've been to has been better than this one.

I've been in here once.  Never, ever, ever again.  I came in here after a night out drinking to get something to eat and wait for a cab.  Service was awful - rude and condescending.  You know what, if you're stuck here at 3am on a Friday night, its…More »

This is the closest grocery store to me.  So close that I can walk, but most of the time, I regret coming here.

Student loans may possibly be the bane of my existence.  I realize that I'm luckier than most because I only had to take out a loan to pay for 1/2 the cost of my Master's Degree so I don't know how others with higher loans maintain their sanity!
