After 110 years, the last iteration of this long-standing Columbus eatery has closed for good

In 1912, Phillips Coney Island opened a restaurant selling hot dogs in Columbus. 

Now, one century plus one decade later, the last iteration of the long-standing Columbus eatery, the food truck Phillips on Wheels, has closed.
