Cafe: Pistacia Vera in Columbus, Ohio

★★★★★

March 2026

Incredible pastries – definitely a top tier professional bakery. It's always very busy and there is only outside seating, but it is great for grab and go.

The strawberry matcha is one of the best drinks I've ever had. It is expensive for a drink ($9!!!) but there's no question I'd go back and get it again. When it comes to how pricey drinks are around Columbus, this one is definitely worth it. Any drink I have had from here has very thick, creamy milk or cold foam and it is delicious. If I could change one thing it'd just be to make the drinks available in a slightly bigger size!
