An Ohio-grown chocolates and coffee business, Piqua based Winan’s opened up shop in Dublin in 2012 and MJ2 mornings have been fueled by their java ever since. Winan’s offers freshly roasted coffees and handmade premium chocolates that are to die for! Pro tip – if you’re ever at a loss for Valentine’s Day, Easter, Christmas, or any other gift idea, Winan’s always has holiday themed chocolates, gift baskets, and more.

Things To Do In DublinDine In at Cap City Fine Diner & Bar
We were ecstatic when we heard the news that Cameron Mitchell’s had chosen Dublin as the location of their third Cap City. The restaurant opened in July 2017 in  new Bridge Park area of Dublin, and we won tickets to their soft opening. Everything at Cap City is made from scratch and their upscale take on classic comfort food is irresistible. The “Seriously Big Chocolate Cake” and meatloaf are just a few of the reasons it’s one of our favorite places to eat in Dublin. Rumor has it that their Dublin opening was on of their strongest across all of the Cameron Mitchell brands during launch week. Wow!

Take a Hike at Indian Run Falls
Need an escape? Located at 700 Shawan Falls Dr., Indian Run Falls is a nice getaway conveniently located right in town. The park has nature trails, bridges, and observation platforms. We love going for a hike on the nature trails in the fall. You won’t want to miss the main attraction in the summer, the gorgeous waterfalls!
