The Soft-Shell Crab Burger is a crowd favourite, and for good reason. Fluffy brioche buns encase a crisp deep-fried soft shell crab patty topped with delicious furikake eggs and caramelised onions. The curly fries on the side go perfectly with the rich burger. Another popular, albeit lighter, option is the Salmon Soba Noodles. Made with poached salmon, bouncy soba noodles, and topped with cilantro-lime nori yogurt, this dish is tangy, gentle on the palate, and won’t undo any diet plans you may have. For something a little sweeter, opt for the Candied Bacon Buttermilk Waffle, a soft waffle served with bacon that has been tossed in sugar - the unique sweet and salty flavour combined with the tenderness of the waffle makes for a delicious and memorable dish.

Cafe junkies after their caffeine fix will be glad to know that Columbus offers specialty coffee from local roasters Two Degrees North. From a smooth latte to a sophisticated v60 filter brew, the rigorous standards and consistency held by the team is the foundation of their success. (Oct 2018)
