About Field Public House
Field Public House is a beloved neighborhood sandwiches spot in Columbus, OH, with a no-frills feel and a quick order-at-the-counter setup with a small patio. The kitchen leans into sandwiches done well, dough is fermented for at least 48 hours for better flavor.
The signature item to try first is the BLT, which has earned a loyal following. The rest of the menu rounds it out with options like Italian Sub, Turkey Club, Pulled Pork, plus rotating specials that change with the season. Portions are generous for the price point ($), and the kitchen is consistent — orders come out fast even when the place is full.
On a typical day you'll find downtown commuters grabbing a hot lunch, especially around the lunch and dinner rushes. The bar pours frozen margaritas, agua frescas, and a short list of cocktails. Most dishes can be made dairy-free on request. The dining room is clean, the music is at a reasonable volume, and the wifi works.
For ordering, you can text ahead to skip the line during the lunch rush. The price-to-quality ratio is what brings most people back a second time. Whether you're new to Columbus or a longtime resident hunting for a reliable sandwiches fix, Field Public House earns a spot in the regular rotation.

I work nearby and stop in at least twice a week. The Reuben hits every time. Service is quick, the space is clean, and they take dietary requests seriously which I appreciate. Easy five stars from me.
Field Public House has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Turkey Club but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The BLT was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Italian Sub and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
