New Food Options at GCCC

The South Cafe & Marketplace and Discovery Cafe Attracts New Tenants

(Columbus, March 24, 2021) — Building on the momentum generated with successfully hosting safe events and the new normal settling in Columbus, the facility has attracted new merchants to the South Cafe & Marketplace and Discovery Cafe.

“We’ve augmented the quick-service dining establishments that guests have been patronizing for years with a selection of new tenants providing dining options to attract an additional segment of local and traveling customers,” said GCCC General Manager, John R. Page.

Three new dining options have joined the Greater Columbus Convention Center:

  • American Nut Company: A premium nut store with vegan and gluten free options that support Elephant Sanctuaries. Located in the South Cafe & Marketplace.
  • Preston’s Burgers: A midwestern burger joint, voted best burger in Columbus, OH. Burgers, fried chicken, and gluten free options made with locally sourced, fresh ingredients. Located in Discovery Cafe.
  • Just Baked Kiosk and Reis and Irvy’s: Smart food kiosks that serve grab-and-go dining options. Enjoy pizza, pretzels, cookies, yogurt and more. Located in Discovery Cafe.

South Cafe & Marketplace Cash is still offered in $5 and $10 denominations. Designed to be redeemed just like cash, the certificates are available to the general public through Guest Services and Marketing. These certificates make convenient gifts for employees of nearby businesses who visit the shops and restaurants on a regular basis. Event planners may utilize the South Cafe & Marketplace Cash as vouchers to provide meals for their staff, coaches, exhibitors and volunteers.
