Good things come in three, but in Columbus they come in four.

Four new businesses are planned or now opened along the stretch of North High Street in Clintonville, and we are making a pit stop at each one to learn more.

Coming soon: Bite This by Annie, 3009 N. High St.

After a viral moment on TikTok, this new bakery is opening today. The menu is diverse and creative, with options like the rich peanut butter pie, made with whipped peanut butter, chocolate ganache, and brownies. We also can't wait to sink our teeth into one of the many different stuffed bagels, better known as bagel bombs.

Coming soon: Clintonville Books, 3286 N. High St.

Does this address look familiar? It was originally Tigertree (which is now across the street), and there were plans for a vintage reseller to open in the space as well. Now, signage shows Clintonville Books will occupy the space, with plans to buy and sell new, used, and vintage books to all ages. A summer 2024 opening is expected.

Open: Alchemy + Fortune, 2928 N. High St.

What do you get when you mix one part coffee shop with equal parts vintage vendors, local art, and charitable efforts? The answer is this new do-it-all shopping experience that opened on June 22. The small, but mighty shop houses 11 total vendors.

Play It! also has locations at Polaris, Hilliard, and near OSU's campus. | Photo via Play It! Games, Movies, & Music
