The Columbus Computer Society is introducing Bits & Bites (B&B), a new monthly Focus Group focused entirely on in-person fellowship, good food, and great conversation.
While our virtual meetings and presentations keep everyone informed from the comfort of home, Bits & Bites brings back the opportunity to connect face-to-face. There are no technical presentations, formal slide decks, or rigid agendas. Instead, this group offers a casual setting to catch up with longtime friends, welcome new faces, and enjoy a meal together.
Meeting Details
- When: Every 3rd Sunday of the month at 1:30 PM
- Where: Rotating local restaurants throughout Central Ohio
- Format: In-person dining and open social conversation
- Expenses: Members cover the cost of their individual meals
The 1:30 PM meeting time accommodates members attending morning worship services and misses the noon peak dining rush, allowing our group to sit, eat, and talk at an easy pace.
Inaugural Gathering:
Sunday, January 17, 2027
Our first Bits & Bites meetup will take place at a Columbus classic in German Village:
- Location: Schmidt’s Sausage Haus
- Address: 240 E. Kossuth St, Columbus, OH 43206
- Date & Time: Sunday, January 17, 2027, at 1:30 PM
Schmidt’s offers a historic dining room with ample seating that easily accommodates groups. Their famous Autobahn Buffet makes ordering fast and straightforward, letting everyone grab lunch immediately without waiting on complex ticket orders. Individual menu ordering is also available, along with their legendary jumbo cream puffs.
RSVP Required
Because restaurants require an accurate head count for large group reservations, please RSVP in advance if you plan to attend.
