What we're reading, week of September 27
Outlet tips we are watching, not building as standalone pages. Status: Roundup.

These are outlet tips from the week of September 27. Best of 614 is not building standalone pages until a primary source lands.
- Starbucks Short North and Easton - Outlets and store trackers list 1014 N. High St. and 4015 Easton Station among the September 26 closures. Google Maps now marks both permanently closed. We still want a Starbucks corporate store list or company release before a Closings page.
- Hoster Brewing Company - Columbus Underground and 614NOW quote an owner Facebook statement that the taproom at 653 N. James Rd. ends October 31, with wholesale kegs through year-end. The owner site at hosterbeer.com still lists Oktoberfest dates and does not publish a close notice we can link, and the Facebook post is login-walled from our box.
- Fat Arnie's Provecho - WhatNow and 614NOW report a takeout-forward sandwiches and empanadas room at 20 S. State St. in Uptown Westerville aiming for about October 1 in the former DiCarlo's space. Fatarnies.com still describes the Clintonville sandwich shop only, so this stays outlet-parked.
- Enchantea / Tea After Dark - Outlets describe a Bethel Road reopen with evening tea cocktails. Google Business hours show Open at 811 Bethel Rd. and point to enchantealab.com, but the owner site still says Enchantea 2.0 is coming soon. Holding a page until the owner site or Instagram posts a clear soft-open notice.
- Sozou at Spring Quarter - Chili Chili says chef Fuyuhiko Ito's robata and sushi room is open on the ground floor of Ten Twenty Spring and still awaiting a liquor permit. No owner-site primary pulled this run.
- Sbarro at Tanger Outlets Sunbury - Carryover tip for a mid-October outlet pizza counter from a CEO interview only. Sbarro.com/news had no Columbus release when checked.
- TRIO Burger (Lewis Center), Still Rising Bakery (German Village), Kalamantina Cafe (Newark), Minnie Bird, and Koffee Paradise (1333 N. High) - still Instagram or outlet-only, or photo-blocked, so they stay on the reading list rather than Openings pages.
When a permit filing, owner announcement, or city release lands, those tips move to Openings or Closings. Until then they live here and on What we're reading. For more neighborhood context see Short North, Easton, and Westerville.
