You don’t sound too familiar with the mentality of most English women there

My girlfriend would rip my spleen out , if I went to see the browns without her lol

This thread makes me want to return for a third time! I love Cleveland. 

 It’ll happen i’m sure just not this year. 

I ended up pretty drunk one night and asked a cab driver to take me to a place I could get a late night burger. It was Rally’s which I’ve since learned nobody there likes but I know that at the time it was damn tasty 

Lol all tastes better after a few beers 

I'm looking forward to first visit 

I'm sure like you I would go again soon as possible

That's a pretty fair drive from Toronto to Cleveland. Google says 5 hours.

Yeah it's not too bad we stopping 

At Niagara falls for a couple of nights and making way down to Cleveland Saturday morning 

@the-gipper said:

Well, you will have a car, so you can get to any of these.   Bon chance!

Yeah that's excellent thank you for taking the time to put this list together 

We will definitely try a couple of them I'm sure

How long are you going to be in Cleveland, and where are you staying?  

Here are a few suggestions about local Cleveland eateries, etc. that you could try to patronize when you are here:

A. Go to the Westside Market.  Numerous  food booths with all kinds of variety and mostly all good stuff.

B. Hot Sauce Williams  (I believe it may be on Carnegie)....if you want some true American Soul food or Barbecue

C. The Academy Tavern, on the East Side, East Woodland I believe, fairly near Shaker Square

D. Johnny's Bar on Fulton  (there is also a Johnny's downtown...Warehouse district)

E. The Harbor Inn    The most Iconic Cleveland  "pub".  In The Flats, west side. You get everyone from dock workers to lawyers in there and everything in between.

F. Heck's Cafe,   Ohio City.

H. If by any chance you are staying down near Medina,  The Timber Lodge is the best restaurant near there.

And if you are going to be in the Akron area, check in with me there.

G. The Hofbrau Haus,  on Chester, for German

H. Corky and Lenny's  East Side, on Chagrin Blvd.  Jewish deli.

I. Any one of several Italian restaurants in Little Italy,  Mayfield Rd.  East side.

J. The Flat Iron Cafe, in the Flats.   Frequented by Browns Board tailgators at times.

Hello

Wow that's some list lol

We staying in old Brooklyn area

For three nights Saturday Sunday and Monday and driving back to Toronto for flight home to UK Tuesday

I always suggest local food or mini local chains to out of town/country visitors for food. I will not go to national chain restaurants when away from home, preferring local places such as Tim's Tavern and/or Eadie's in Canton for fish, Swenson's (drive-in or carryout) for a great burger (or 2 or 3), Hartville Kitchen for homestyle Amish food, Papa Bear's/Pizza Ovenin Canton, The Rail (high end burgers, 24 OHIO craft beers on tap). Of course, Great Lakes and/or Thirsty Dog.

Mike

Thanks Mike 

I shall definitely check out some other these places
