The Locust Table

It's been a few years now, and I still occasionally pop in.Alas, my most recent visit was a big "miss."They're still clean, the service is good. But I checked the health scores (they hover around 70-80/100!? That's a little worrying). And add to that - they switched from roasted turkey to "sliced turkey", removed the side salad, and increased the price of the smoked turkey sandwich, and it's lost flavor.For $17, that sandwich, by itself, is not worth it. I'm going to have to keep an eye on posts to see if they improve their food quality, but as it stands, I feel I greatly overpaid and their quality is dropping to make it a worthwhile stop.

This was a lovely surprise! My friend suggested it and I was happy to go along. I opted for their quiche which had sausage and kale along with a small salad on the side. I also ordered the pumpkin scone and then the ooey oatmeal cookie for later. I ended up taking most of the scone to go too. The quiche was just wonderful. Perfectly cooked with a flaky crust and the flavors made it special. The scone was huge and paired well with their coffee. I tried the cookie on my way back to Indy but had to save it for later because I didn't realize it was covered in powder sugar and that doesn't go well with driving. This place was so good and all the employees were kind!

Was at a coffee house down the road that didn't have scones. (Imo all coffee houses should have scones! Did a quick yelp search and found this great little brunch spot called the Locust Table. This brunch spot also does carry out coffees and bakery items as well as full service brunch. They carry blueberry, peaches n cream and a savory ham and cheese scones. I chose this peach scone and was super surprised when I found it also was made from whole wheat and had pecans in it-- Both bonuses for me! Will return for a proper meal in a month or two as everything that servers brought out and passed by me as I stood there ordering, looked amazing.

Ambiance = 4 starsExceptionally clean and bright, easy parking, pleasant decor, uncomfortable chairsService = 4 stars Friendly and helpful counter service where you order, they also deliver your meal and clear the table, drinks are self-serviceFood = 3 starsLunch selections much better than breakfast, including fantastic chicken salad sandwich, tomato soup and grilled cheese. If you are in Powell looking for breakfast and bypass Anne's Southern Kitchen (my fave) to come here, then definitely skip the avocado toast (a big miss), and sorry to say the breakfast burrito is only marginally better. Waffle looks better as does 2 egg breakfast with sides.I truly want this place to succeed and thrive in Powell. We need a place like this. But I'm hoping they can up their game with a restart/refresh on their breakfast menu.

I had a nice time. The inside was cute and garden like. The food was good, but I don't feel this is the first place I would pick to go back to again. The service was good, everyone was so nice. I had the Belgium Waffle and the Blueberry Earl Gray Lavender Scone. It was good.

We were in the area and stopped by because it was recommended to us and it did not disappoint!! If you are looking for a quick delicious breakfast with good coffee and friendly staff this place is it!

Perfect stop for a light casual lunch. They serve brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. The menu is small but appealing. The chicken salad was delicious. Full of raisins and nuts for texture. I appreciated that you can order it served in lettuce cups. You order at the counter and they bring your food to the table. They have separate cocktails and kids menus available. I really enjoyed the tequila sunrise brunch cocktail. They also have a pretty outdoor patio for people watching on Olentangy.

If you like Fox in the Snow's egg sandwich, you'll most definitely want to give Locust Table's egg sandwich! I stopped by after an appointment at Skin & Sugar to pick up an online order. I could never tell just from looking outside if this was a traditional dine-in spot or if I could order at a counter, turns out it's the latter . The interior and homey and welcoming. The woman who got me my order was really nice and their retail selections were very tempting. I ordered an egg sandwich (sans arugula). The herb focaccia was fantastic, the eggs and bacon perfectly made, and I really liked the sauce it came with. I also got a blueberry lavender scone that was moist with still-juicy blueberries baked inside. It was that good after sitting out on my counter overnight, so I can only imagine how good they are fresh. I'll most definitely be ordering here again soon!

We have been here a few times and the results are very consistent and very good. I've had the chicken sandwich (great), huevos rancheros (great), breakfast burrito (good), and my wife loves the granola (great). I had the chicken noodle soup today and it was good but not amazing (I'm a soup lover/snob). My wife says she wishes they had a bit more variety of food and more importantly drink options like lattes given it's a brunch/lunch place. She also wishes they displayed the calories on their menu. The other issue is the prices are quite high. The chicken sandwich, which isn't big, is $16 and it comes with no side so I spent $6 for a cup of soup. This is a casual place so that seems high. But the food is great and convenient to us which is why we go back.

The food is delicious. Try quiche. There is a lot of open space and greenery. Service is excellent!!
