COLUMBUS, Ohio ( WCMH ) — Noteworthy central Ohio restaurants and bars announced they would be closing in 2024, including Oscar’s in historic Dublin, a decades-old dive bar near Ohio State, Columbus’ first Chick-fil-A location and more.
Here are the prominent eateries that shuttered in 2024.
- The brewery at 620 Industrial Parkway in Plain City permanently closed in February after its former chief operating officer pleaded guilty to stealing more than $200,000 from the company. Owner Ben King, who opened the location in 2020 after kickstarting the business in 2015, said “due to unforeseen circumstances, our timing was awful.”
- The joint at 2333 N. High St. went up for sale in August after the business suddenly closed less than a year after it opened. The owners of Adelaide’s were sued by their former manager in June , who alleged they violated labor laws.
- Known as a fixture in Bexley for New York-style pizza, Anthony’s shuttered its doors in April. The pizza and sub shop, in the 600 block of Pleasant Ridge Avenue across from Capital University, announced its closure with a note taped to its door.
