Rowley Inn - Cleveland

The bacon-wrapped tater tots exceeded our expectations after seeing them on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. The meatloaf sandwich with bacon was superb, and my boyfriend enjoyed the Polish sausage. The use of locally baked artisan bread made a noticeable difference in the quality of the dishes. The beer selection was plentiful, and we easily found options we liked. Despite being busy, the staff was incredibly attentive and friendly. We both agreed that if we lived closer, we would become regulars. Despite the distance from Buffalo (194 miles), we will definitely be returning in the future.

The food at this restaurant was incredibly tasty! While the service was just okay, it was understandable as they were extremely busy. Although there was a little wait, we received everything we needed. Surprisingly, the grilled cheese sandwich was the best I've ever had. The pumpkin and chicory salad was also delicious. The bacon wrapped tots were huge and delicious too. I would definitely visit again when in Cleveland.

We wanted to visit The Christmas Story House and arrived a bit early for the tours which start at 10am. We decided to grab something to eat and were pleased to find that the full menu was available on the Sunday morning we visited. I ordered the Basic B burger with ranch seasoned French fries, while my friend had the massive BLT sandwich with seasoned ranch fries as well. The food was delicious and we enjoyed sitting at the bar where our server/bartender was super friendly. The restaurant is filled with photos from the Christmas Story movie and features the infamous leg lamp proudly displayed in the window. I highly recommend stopping by this spot, especially during Christmas time when the nostalgia would be even more amazing. Whether you are just passing through or visiting for a tour, this restaurant is a must-visit.

Stopped on a road trip to the breakfast, it was easy to get relatiw, and had their vegan options marked clearly on the menu, many possibilities! Unfortunately, they had just fled from justeggs so that the breakfast selection was reduced, but they were happy to replace/ improvise a veggie-hash-brown mix with vegan cheese. and they open at 7 o'clock!

They were quite spoiled when I was there (announcements on Sunday afternoon, when the browns w bengals is busy, so my burger took a long time to get my order was a little wrong, but no biggie. coffee was great and server kept it coming! very loud, but otherwise funny and friendly, beautiful atmosphere.
