About The Whitney House
The Spotlight on The Whitney House

Warm, Welcoming American Fare in the Heart of Worthington

Located on charming High Street in downtown Worthington, The Whitney House serves up elevated American comfort food in a cozy, farmhouse-inspired space. Known for its warm hospitality and locally sourced ingredients, this stylish spot blends rustic charm with modern polish—making it a go-to for both locals and out-of-town visitors. Just a short drive from some of the area's most popular live music venues, it's a convenient and delicious stop before or after a concert.

Why Concert-goers love it

Fast, friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere make The Whitney House a smart choice before heading to a show. Thanks to its location near major highways and concert venues in the Columbus metro area, it’s easy to reach—even on a busy night. The menu offers something for everyone, from hearty entrees to shareable starters, and the vibe is relaxed enough for a quick bite or a drawn-out dinner with friends. Bonus: the noise level stays moderate, so you can chat about your favorite band without yelling across the table.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for shareable plates and great cocktails
  • Solo travelers grabbing a seat at the bar before the show
  • Couples on a romantic weekend with time for a slow dinner
  • Fans wanting a lively, stylish place to kick off their concert night
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want quality food and good portions

What People Say

Diners rave about the thoughtfully prepared comfort food—favorites include the short ribs, deviled eggs, and house-made meatloaf. The brunch menu gets high marks too, especially from weekend concert-goers. Many reviews highlight the attentive staff, the cozy yet elegant décor, and the restaurant’s ability to feel both upscale and approachable. Locals love it as much as visitors do, which says a lot.

Areas for Improvement

While most guests love the atmosphere, some mention that it can get busy on weekends, so reservations are a smart move. Parking in downtown Worthington can be tight during peak hours, but there are public lots nearby if street parking is full.

The Bottom Line

The Whitney House offers comforting, high-quality American dishes in a warm setting that’s perfect for pre-show dining—whether you’re flying solo or out with the whole crew.
