A trip to Ohio Stadium, or perhaps better known as The Shoe, is always special.
It’s one of the most famous stadiums in all of North American sports, hosting the world famous Ohio State Buckeyes Football games in the fall, as well as numerous concerts and other events throughout the year.
But with its massive stadium capacity, sometimes planning a trip down to ole Columbus town can be daunting. “Where are we going to eat? Are we trying to grab some beers before the game?” Trust us, we’ve been there too. That’s why we pulled together great spots for you to eat and drink near The Shoe.
All of these places to eat and drink near Ohio Stadium are within 5 miles of the stadium, which means it’ll just be a short walk or short drive/uber/lyft/bus/jetpack ride (if you have one of those) to get to the Horseshoe.
Eat and drink up, because it’s gonna be a great day at Ohio Stadium!
