Love often reveals itself in the small rituals that slow us down—the warmth of a cup between your hands, the quiet courage of trying something new, the anticipation of a familiar landmark coming back to life. Here in Worthington, these moments are shaped by the people who pour their hearts into what we drink. In every latte, bottle, and pint, there’s a little bit of their story— and a chance to savor our own.
Barrel & Bloom
At Barrel & Bloom, it's coffee by day and cocktails at night. Scott Talmage and Jen Gerhard's new hangoutspace is all about community. Their signature Biscoff Latte captures the spirit of the café perfectly: warm, gently sweet, and quietly comforting. It’s the kind of drink that makes you exhale without realizing it—a moment of stillness in a world that rarely pauses. Linger, connect, and feel held by the simplest pleasures. www.endeavorbrewing.com
Aardvark Wine
The romance at Aardvark Wine begins with a story; owner Donnie Austin never hands you a bottle without sharing the soul behind it. He knows the winemakers, their land, and their unique stories. Every recommendation is a window into someone’s life, transformed into something you can pour and share. Donnie guides you not just by flavor but by feeling, helping you choose a wine that matches whatever moment you want to create. At Aardvark, every bottle becomes a memory waiting for its first sip. www.aardvarkwineandbeer.com
