A fresh new concept is buzzing into Grandview Heights. The Hive is set to take over the former Basic Biscuits, Kindness & Coffee space at 1160 Goodale Blvd., bringing new life to the beloved breakfast spot’s cozy corner location. The café was recently purchased by Anthony and Kalie Berin, who plan to reopen the space under its new name.
While full details about The Hive’s menu and concept have yet to be shared, the Berins’ takeover hints at a continuation of the warm, community-centered atmosphere that made Basic Biscuits a local favorite. The location sits just off Grandview Avenue, surrounded by a lively mix of shops, restaurants, and creative businesses that make the neighborhood one of Columbus’s most charming and walkable areas.
Owner Kalie Berin shared with What Now Columbus, “We’re in a really unique position right now to take what locals already love about the shop and create an even better overall experience. We want to be a place known for delicious food, great coffee, and a real sense of community. We pride ourselves on excellence- in food quality, service, and the overall experience of our customers. As we continue to make changes to the business, we hope to create a warm, inviting atmosphere that people want to spend time in- whether that’s working from the shop on a Tuesday morning, or hanging out with your family on the weekends, we’d love to become a staple part of customer’s regular routine.”
She said, “
We’re most known for our biscuit sandwiches and variety of mini biscuits, however, we also serve cinnamon rolls on the weekends. We’re currently in the process of rolling out new menu items, and we’ll be featuring those as weekly specials (check out Instagram each week for more information on these!) before finalizing our new menu. But don’t worry- the biscuits aren’t going anywhere!”
The Hive joins a growing lineup of locally owned spots that define Grandview’s dining culture—from long-standing brunch destinations to trendsetting coffee shops and bakeries.
More information about The Hive’s opening timeline and offerings is expected in the coming weeks, but one thing’s certain: this Grandview corner is set to buzz again soon.
