Why Columbus Teams Choose Buca di Beppo

Columbus is a city synonymous with athletics, from college rivalries to youth sports leagues. Our location offers a gathering spot just minutes from beloved local landmarks. We’re right by Nationwide Arena, home to major hockey and basketball events. The bustling Arena District, packed with entertainment options, is only steps away. Teams traveling for a tournament or practice love our proximity to Huntington Park, where minor league baseball is a tradition. There is no better spot to come together after scoring big—on or off the field—than our warm and lively restaurant in the heart of downtown.

Team Meals Made Simple and Special

Buca di Beppo specializes in family-style dining, making us a natural choice for youth teams, high school squads, college groups, or any crew of athletes and coaches. Our hearty Italian menu is designed for sharing, featuring generous portions of favorites like spaghetti with meatballs, classic lasagna, chicken parmigiana, fresh salads, and irresistible desserts. Thirsty teams appreciate our unlimited soft drink and coffee options, and we also have selections for gluten-sensitive and vegetarian guests. Every detail is managed with care, so you can focus on your team’s celebration and bonding.

Convenient for Out-of-Town and Local Groups

For teams visiting Columbus, we are a short walk or drive from DoubleTree Suites by Hilton and the Hyatt Regency, making us a perfect choice for out-of-town groups looking for a great meal near their hotel. Parking is simple, whether you arrive by bus or car, thanks to ample nearby lots and easy street access. If you’re using public transit, local COTA stops bring you within blocks of our front door. Want to stretch your legs before or after your meal? Stroll the nearby Scioto Mile or check out fun spots like the Greater Columbus Convention Center, also just moments away.

Flexible Spaces for Every Team and Celebration

Our Columbus location features festive dining rooms decorated with eclectic Italian flair, offering flexible seating that accommodates both small groups and large celebrations. Need privacy for an awards night or a quiet place for a team meeting? Choose from semi-private areas where speeches and camaraderie are always on the menu.
