A Historic Corner. A New Chapter.

Long before tacos and margaritas, 4 E. Columbus Street was already a gathering place. This Olde Town landmark has been part of Pickerington’s story for generations, from a late 1800s saloon to a full-service gas station in the early 1900s. In 1946, the round building many locals remember became “Dude” Harrell’s Sohio Service Station, serving drivers and neighbors for decades.

After years of serving the community in different ways, the space is ready for its next chapter. That’s where we come in.

Local Cantina is proud to restore this historic building and bring new energy to a familiar corner. What once fueled cars now fuels Taco Tuesdays, Mustache Ride Mondays, happy hours, and celebrations big and small. We’re locally owned, Ohio proud, and honored to be part of Pickerington’s next era, not just as a restaurant but as a place where neighbors gather.
