Winans Coffee & Chocolate, an absolute favorite local chocolatier and coffee roaster, is set to open its newest franchise location in the Short North. The grand opening is scheduled for February 14, adding a sweet touch to Valentine’s Day celebrations.
Operated by Monica and Miles Thomas, who also own the German Village Winans Coffee & Chocolate franchise, the new location at 611 N. High St. aims to bring the cherished brand to another historic district in Columbus. Wilson Reisier, CEO of Winans Coffee & Chocolate, noted in a press release that Monica and Miles have been integral parts of the Winans family for over nine years.
The grand opening festivities on February 14 will feature a range of giveaways throughout the day.

Monica Thomas, Winans franchise owner, expressed her excitement about the new location, stating, “Short North is a natural next for us, and we are thrilled to bring Winans to another one of Columbus’ historic districts.”
Winans Short North will operate from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm Tuesday through Sunday and from 7:00 am to 3:00 pm on Mondays. The expansion to the Short North aligns with Winans Coffee & Chocolate’s commitment to providing premium confections and coffee in distinctive communities.
