Welcome to the Farm Columbus

Chase Rice and Forward Hospitality Group are expanding the Welcome to the Farm entertainment franchise with a Columbus, Ohio location in August.

The renovated space located in the heart of the Short North Arts District will be found along the ground floor of Forward’s popular disco concept Good Night John Boy, and will frequently host a rotating lineup of country DJs and live music. The space can seat approximately 100 guests and will offer both indoor seating and a patio. Guests can expect The Farm’s bar menu to include an assortment of Farm Favorites Cocktails as well as a massive bourbon and whiskey list.

“The response to Welcome to the Farm has been amazing, and getting to keep growing it with the Forward team has been a lot of fun,” says Rice. “My dad grew up just outside Columbus in Grove City, so this has always been one of those places I’ve loved coming back to. Bringing The Farm to Short North just feels right, and I can’t wait for everybody to come hang with us this summer.”

The Columbus location joins both the brand’s St. Petersburg location and original flagship, which opened in Cleveland in 2021 and was also joined by Rice and Forward Hospitality Group’s “I Hate Cowboys” cocktail & bourbon lounge next door.
