The Columbus Coffee Trail Feature the Best of Ohio's Coffee Shops
Katherine Pendrill — September 26, 2019 — World
As if the 12-stop donut trail in Butler County wasn't enough of a reason to visit Ohio, the state has just launched the Columbus Coffee Trail in the state capital.
The Columbus Coffee Trail is a 17-stop trail that takes visitors to some of the city's best coffee shops. Visitors can start at any of the 17 shops and ask for a Coffee Trail card to cross off each of their stops. At each location, coffee hoppers will receive a stamp on their card to show proof of visit. Those who make it to at least four stops will be rewarded with a free T-shirt, while those who visit all 17 stops will receive a free travel mug.
The Columbus Coffee Trail not only provides a fun way for visitors to see the city, but also helps to support local coffee shops.
