Emmett's Cafe, located at 744 S High St in Columbus, OH, is a charming spot that has quickly become a local favorite. This cozy cafe serves up an impressive array of coffee and food offerings, resulting in a delightful experience for every visitor. Patrons rave about the Bee Sting Latte, a unique blend of organic honey, cayenne, and vanilla, as well as the mouthwatering mocha latte, which Vanessa Dragon describes as the best she's ever had.

This restaurant is a gem of a find while visiting Columbus! First off, their mocha latte with oatmilk is the best I have ever had. I wish I was exaggerating but I promise I am not. If you like a smooth mocha that has a h I n t of sweetness, this is the drink for you! It was perfectly foamy and just got enough that I drank it pretty quick. My partner got a drop coffee and he said it was too hot to drink fast but the flavor was great. I ordered the breakfast burrito and my partner got the lox sandwich. Both were huge portions and extremely filling! I only ate half the burrito, it was that big. Can't wait to have the rest for lunch later as the flavor was delicious! Other reviews have talked about the pricing. For the amount of food and quality Emmett's supplies, it is more than worth the price! I wish I lived closer, this would be my new daily spot! Keep up the great work Emmett's! Your staff is super friendly and helpful!

Didn’t use the patio because it was chilly for me but inside is super warm and cozy. Staff super friendly and food incredible! Got mocha, drip coffee, breakfast burrito and smoked salmon. Incredible!

This is a seemingly popular cafe that serves up sandwiches, baked goods, and coffee drinks that all look pretty good. It's pretty small and cozy inside, and there's a good-sized patio for a nicer day. I love a place that lets me get a breakfast sandwich past the AM. From the sandwich and wrap I've tried, they don't skimp on the proteins, and they're fully loaded. The lox and the breakfast burrito were both quite tasty; don't ignore that salsa that comes with the burrito, it adds a good flavorful kick. I had their Aussie capp and it showed that they have some good quality espresso. I can't speak on pastries, but I'd definitely come back to try some. This place is a touch pricier than comparable cafes, but I think the quality and portions justify it.

I got a great egg breakfast sandwich with the green salsa and a cortado. Their employee Ciell made me the best coffee I’ve ever had!! Thank you Ciel! I will warn guests the seats have no backs so be ready to engage your abdominals.

Cute little caffe with delicious food. Their patio is cute and they allow pet on their patio. We ordered avocado toast, overnight oats, banana bread and breakfast burritos and everything was super delicious we loved the place and the food!!

Amazing breakfast burrito! We drove here from Marion, OH — quite simply because we wanted breakfast but wanted to support a small local restaurant. The breakfast burrito SLAPS! I didn’t get pictures but trust me it’s worth it. I rated atmosphere a 4 because of how small the location is.

Checked out Emmett’s Cafe for the first time and it was so good. I had The One Handed sandwich, which was super tasty and hit the spot. But the banana bread? Unreal. Like, seriously life changing. I’m still thinking about it. Definitely coming back for that alone.

One of the best quality and niche cafes in Columbus! It's pretty casual with great outdoor seating in the back. The prices are decent and will get you through breakfast and lunch both. It does close rather early though and service can take a little bit of time. Highly recommend!
