This World Market is in the Polaris Mall area of north Columbus. It is part of a strip mall so parking is always available, although you may have to walk a ways.

World Market is a great store. It is like Pier 1 but with alcohol. They have a selection of wines and beers from all over the world. The best thing is their "beer endcap", which allows to to mix and match single bottles from pretty much any of the 6-packs they carry, so it is possible to get a decent variety.

You can also find some Belgian brews like Corsendonk in larger bottles. Regionals like Great Lakes are available as well. All in all, this is a one-stop place to try 50+ beers without having to buy more than one bottle at a time. While you're there, you can get a chair from Japan and some placemats from India.

Service is decent. You can usually find a person in the wine/beer section who knows what they are talking about.
