Soulshine Friends,

We have bittersweet news to share — our last day open for business was Saturday, May 21st as our lease expires on May 31st. We were hopeful that we would be able to reach agreeable terms to extend the lease — that unfortunately has not been the case, so we made the difficult decision to not renew.

We have been honored to be named one of Columbus Monthly's Best New Restaurants back in 2018 and recognized since then as one of our city's best in numerous categories year after year. We have been challenged by Covid and the ever-changing landscape more than we could have ever imagined. We have been so fortunate to build a truly outstanding team that are as positive, hardworking, passionate, and committed as any that we have been a part of. We have been proud to showcase awesome local brands, musicians, and artists. And, we are beyond grateful for our fantastic, loyal Soulshine friends and guests who have stuck with us to support and encourage through these unprecedented times.

We have loved seeing all of the smiling faces enjoying our local spot over the past 5 years. While we are sad to close this chapter, we feel extremely blessed that it all happened and look forward to what's next for our family. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has entered through our doors — we wish our entire Soulshine family all the best and we hope to see you somewhere down the road!

Cheers!
