In Columbus, Ohio, a microroaster named Stauf's operates two really good coffeehouses. One location is in one of the upscale urban neighborhoods and the other is in a suburban area inside an office park neighbohood strip mall. The suburban location is on the north side, not far from I-270 and across a parking lot from the Sheraton Suites. It's worth staying in this area - or driving from another part of the city - to have a morning cup here.
