Cafe Apropos, Columbus

You can tour the world inside Caffe' Apropos, but instead of a plane ticket, the voyage comes by way of a wine glass. More than 700 bottles of wine (and 70-plus beers) line the cafe's boutique area, and regular wine-tasting events help patrons circumnavigate all of the available varieties.

Other visits will likely be spent over cups of espresso or lattes, which pair nicely with a pressed panini sandwich or fresh-baked dessert. In fact, Impulcity named the cafe's raspberry bar one of "The 9 Most Delicious Desserts in Columbus." The rest of the food menu includes shareable food such as cheese plates, hot breakfast sandwiches, and classic reubens. Cozy seating options are available year-round, whether on the outdoor patio or on a couch near the fireplace, which functions just like Europeans' hotter, more elegant form of fire.
