Street food in Columbus lives mostly under one roof, at the downtown North Market where local vendors run stalls side by side. Hoyo's Kitchen serves Somali sambusa, Jeni's scoops its ice cream, and Brassica works a falafel counter, all within the same hall on Spruce Street. Beyond the market, Mikey's Late Night Slice in the Short North carries the after-dark grab-and-go tradition.
