New restaurant now open in the former home of DeArini’s

Even though the long-standing Columbus eatery DeArini’s has closed after more than 50 year, a new concept has already opened in the space.

Kelley’s Pub & Patio, which was created by owner Ben Skinner after he purchased the restaurant earlier this year, will hold a party to celebrate its opening on July 8 at 7:30 p.m. Kelley’s opened to the public last month.

Kelley is located at 1940 Henderson Rd.

And while this address may be familiar to many DeArini’s patrons, Skinner has updated the concept’s interior a significant amount. A portion of the restaurant’s dining space has been converted into a game room with pool tables, dart boards, video games and more.

Skinner is teaming up with Reggie Wilson, the owner of the Columbus Ghost Kitchen Ridiculous Eatz, to serve Kelley’s patrons. Ridiculous Eatz, which relocated from its former home in the Columbus Food Hall, will serve a variety of Southern comfort food classics.
