Budd Dairy Food Hall is seeing a couple changes to its vendor lineup. First off, Pokebap announced that its last day at the food hall would be June 15. The Hawaiian bowl shop is one of the original chef partners in the business. Pokebap’s owners said their Dublin location on Sawmill Road is still going strong.

Budd Dairy also announced that it is welcoming Elevated Pizza Kitchen as its new pizza vendor. The pizzeria will take the place of Borgata Pizza Cafe, which exited the food hall this past April. Elevated’s new stall will open at 4 p.m. June 17.

Italian Village adds new coffee shop

The Ravello’s Coffee cart has found a permanent home at The Daily Bar (883 N. Fourth St.) in Italian Village. The roaming cart operated a series of Saturday pop-ups at the bar before settling in as a regular tenant. The coffee shop, known for specials like its Biscoff latte, has soft opened during the week of June 9, with a grand opening planned for June 14.

Dirty Frank’s expands again

Dirty Frank’s Hot Dog Palace has been growing over the past year, adding a carryout location in Worthington and a campus-area store earlier this year. It recently opened its newest spot inside Ace of Cups bar and music venue in the Old North. It takes the place of Ray Ray’s Hog Pit, which vacated its longtime home to move north into Clintonville. Dirty Frank’s operates as a complement to Blackened Coffee Co., which serves plant-based breakfast and coffee out of Ace of Cups in the mornings.
