“This is my go to local drinking and cooking water source. The water is fresh tasting with a slight mineral flavor.

Water is 50c / gallon when you bring your own jugs. Gallon jugs are for sale in the restaurant on site.

Filling stations are plentiful and easily accessed by anyone. They are sitting on the edge of a beautiful large pond/lake well stocked with many many visible trout.

If you bring your kids, buy some pellets and feed fish. It’s fun to watch!“

“We cannot thank cleats chardon and Kathy Pullman enough for the amazing job they did hosting our benefit on Sunday! We were lucky enough to have almost 150 people come show their support for us and kathy made sure we had enough space and food for everyone to be comfortable.

From the food, to the plates, napkins, table cloths, tickets and the space she provided for our event, the bartenders amanda and melissa did an amazing job as well!

We were given a complimentary champagne toast. The tuna board was AMAZING! We had the elk and filet medallions, both delicious 😋 and split the limencello cake 😛 do it!

“Where do I start ? Came for dinner Wednesday night and then came for dinner Thursday again. That should say something . I’m beyond impressed by the Staff and the establishment, it beyond exceeded my expectations. We have a lot of fine dining in the Poconos region with some higher end restaurants and this place exceeded them. The quality of the food is superior. Take a look at some of the pics of the food we ordered. Ended up meeting Sean the head chef and impressed how he runs his kitchen , everything goes with the flow . Make sure you make a reservation :) we ended up not making one and we got seated over looking the kitchen and it was the best place. You see all the action. Can’t wait to come back from Poconos.

“Food is great, we found this on google, best find! Breakfast is reasonably priced, service is good.“

“This was my first visit to Campola's.
Al had taken my reservation and also welcomed us warmly when our party of five arrived. Turns out that he also made our food and helped to serve it with smiles. Our table on the patio was set and ready for us when we arrived, and water was brought immediately without asking, as were extra napkins. Our waitress was attentive and pleasant. Each of us chose a different type of food, and all of us thought that what we had was delicious...from the pepperoni roll appetizer, to pizza, to a cheesesteak sandwich, to pasta dishes, and cannoli for dessert. One friend gave me a taste of one of her meatballs, and it was so tender and tasty...I think I'll have to come back for a pasta dish with those meatballs! When we were nearing the end of our meal, a very nice gentleman arrived and sang and played nice songs on guitar. He was not too loud so that we could still socialize together. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable evening. Thank you, Campola's!“

“Concord Family Restaurant is an absolute gem in Painesville, Ohio ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted like family. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and genuinely seems to care about their customers. The food is consistently delicious — real comfort food with generous portions at very reasonable prices. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, you really can’t go wrong. The restaurant is always clean, cozy, and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for families, friends, or even a solo meal. Service is quick, coffee is always topped off, and they’re great with kids and larger groups too. If you’re in the Painesville/Concord area and want a great meal with even better service, Concord Family Restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“Long time customer from when they took over the yesterdays restaurant. Years ago it was much better. The spaghetti was really a bolognese sauce that was AMAZING and would have been a $20 plate in other restaurants. That was 20 years ago. When they went to a marinara I asked why? And the owner told me no one would order it with the name bolognese lol. And they wanted a simple marinara sauce. Oh well. The rest of the menu started to suffer some when they started to open more restaurants. They started to not give a dinner roll when they use too, less stuff on a simple side salad. Saving a penny here and there. I know others that feel the same way. Mary's is still a good place. Fast service, always seem friendly lol. But it use to be very very good. Breakfasts are always great. Not much to change there. But some things show the cut backs to seemingly fund more restaurant. We use to go far more often then now. But we still go, and still happy with everything. But if you are a long term customer you saw the changes. Scale of 5 stars I would have gave it a solid 5 before. And I am a TOUGH grader on things as you can tell. Now about a 3.75. Service 4.75 Price 4.50 Food 3.00 I place a heavier value on the food as it is the real reason people go to a restaurant. TO EAT. Madison and Geneva is better to have them for sure. But we have so few good restaurants. What we need is a good deli. Not sure why but everything is pizza or fast foods or Italian. I would suggest a couple new things on the menu. Thank you for your contribution to our community. Tom“

“We had a great meal at Austin's on New Year's Eve. We come here maybe a half dozen times a year and are never disappointed. We started off sharing a shrimp cocktail with my wife having a cup of wedding soup and I had the French Onion soup. The shrimp cocktail was very good. The cocktail sauce had just a little zip to it and the shrimp were large. My wife enjoyed her wedding soup and I also enjoyed the French Onion. I tell everyone Austin's has the best French Onion soup I've tasted in Lake County. I had the ribs, which were generous at a half slab and very tender, with a baked potato that was just right. My daughter had the salmon which she enjoyed and was surprised at the large portion. My wife had the chicken parm and was also surprised at two pieces of chicken. She took one home. She enjoyed it, but thought the sauce a little too sweet. We had no room for dessert. We'll be back here again for sure.“

“I absolutely recommend this place. We went yesterday and had a delicious meal that is very obviously cooked with care. Everyone is so friendly there and we can't wait to return!“

“I stop in from time to time since the first time I went in and got a Burger. It was great! Nice place to take whomever you love or respect, without worry of any disappointment in food, service or atmosphere. The place brings together the rural and industrial folks for a good hot meal, cold drinks and a welcome feel that you've met others you'd think were your neighbors. Best advice is to, stop in yourself and pick from a good menu anything you like. It's all good! I even got a vegetarian burger there yesterday for my Uncle who said, "that is the best I've ever had!" Despite not getting one, that told me there is something there for everyone. Try it, you'll like it!“

“We had such a great time playing there!! Great crowd and friendly service toward the Pawn Band.“

“Great atmosphere, amazing drink selections, food was good and our waitress Gabby was awesome!“

“We celebrated a friend’s birthday here. It turned out to be one of the best evenings we’ve had in a while. The atmosphere was cozy yet lively, and we were lucky to get a table near the outdoor firepit—it added the perfect touch for a fall evening. I ordered the Cajun Chicken Pasta, and it was spot on—creamy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The birthday girl loved her steak, and our server even surprised her with a dessert and candle, which made the moment extra special. What I love about this place is how close it is to Little Mountain Dental, my go-to dentist—making it so convenient to turn an appointment day into a dinner outing with friends.“

“Nice little spot off the highway. We stopped for a bite on the way home and were quite happy with the result. It got quieter through the night while there but the atmosphere was great and cleanliness was top notch. There was a lot of options for burgers from your basic to ones with a lot of add-ons. Unlike most places, there was not a ton of salt used evem on the fries and it wasnt overkill on it. Surprising for a burger place. There was a ton of options for beer on tap as well as your usual alcohol options. Our waitress was fairly attentive without being overbearing but was always within earshot to help us. Great place and would definitely go again when back in the area.“

“The most amazing coffee can be found here!“

“First time here and we were very impressed!! Not familiar with area but my husband and I were spending the morning with our son and his significant other at Patterson’s Farm. SO glad we chose Rise & Dine for our breakfast/lunch! The food was absolutely amazing and the service we received from Maddie was just as good!! Whenever we happen to be in the area we will definitely stop back!“

“Thank you so much to Greg & staff for a wonderful Celebration of Life Party for my Mother in law. Staff was friendly & fast & the food was wonderful! I would definitely recommend having a party again at The Stadium!“

“This was the 1st time eating here & won't be the last!!Cafe was packed but only had a short wait & well worth it. Food was delivered fresh & hot, waitress very attentive. All employees were friendly, perfessional & smiling. Even the owner was busting tables & friendly.“

“A small quiet place with some of the best food you’ll ever have. I absolutely love their hamburgers and fries which are freshly cooked not frozen! The lady with the long dark hair that works there is incredible and always makes you feel special. Also their drink and food prices are very reasonable making this bar/restaurant one of the most affordable in town.“

“This is a gem tucked away in unassuming Middlefield! My husband and I have eaten here multiple times, and LOVE the Detroit Style pizza. All ingredients are fresh and atmosphere is a comfortable local place. If you're looking for something yummy, be sure to give them a shot!“

“My parents took me out for my 57th birthday to celebrate. When we arrived we were seated immediately which was really nice. We had an amazing waitress by the name of Jenna. Service was impeccable our meal was brought out in a timely manner and the food was very delicious.Everything we needed she never had any problem with going to get and I am really grateful and thankful again for the experience that she gave to us being there. We need more waitresses like her that make you feel special in spite of your skin color. Thank you Jenna for making our experience at the roadhouse a good one.“

“The service we had tonight was incredible. We were made to feel like we were the only people in the place, when in fact it was full. The food was amazing, Weiner Schnitzel, perfect, service perfect, 5 Stars and I highly recommend that you try Ramble Inn!“

“We been coming here for years. Other than a couple one off experiences, we had great service and food as reasonable price. Great coffee and they quickly corrected things on the rare occasions something wasn’t right.
