The first CAVA in Columbus has arrived.

On Wednesday, the popular Maryland-based brand serving fast-casual Mediterranean cuisine officially opened for business. It’s located at 1790 Hilliard Rome Rd in Hilliard. 

The brand is known for its build-your-own bowls, pitas, and more, adopting the fast-casual style largely popularized by burrito giant Chipotle.
