“Very cute spot, and chill. Great service, our waitress Deb was super helpful finding me a meal i could safely eat with celiac. The food was pretty quick especially considering they customized a few items for me, and everyone was happy with what they got.“

“Love the seafood from raw oysters to steamed clams, mussels, fried perch sandwiches and seafood queso’s! Highly recommend!!!“

“The service and atmosphere were fantastic and the bartender went above and beyond when I left my credit card behind by accident. I told one person sitting at the bar that we were headed across the street for an event, and the bartender found me at the other venue half an hour later to return my card! We need more people like this in the world!“

“I wish I could give this place 10 stars. We held a special event here for my step-father's celebration of life, and the owners and the staff were incredible. They accommodated us, took care of our guests and helped us create the perfect ambience for our event. I only wish I lived closer, so I could frequent this adorable neighborhood tavern, tucked back from busy West Market Street. (They do not have a full menu, but you are welcome to bring in outside food. My recommendation: Piada Italian Street Food from across the street!).“

Lord of the Rings inspired, medieval decor, amazing food, unique and fun cocktails and mocktails and over 850 board games! This is everything I want in a place and more. Plus the service is AWESOME.

We live out towards Pittsburgh but this will most definitely be a stop every single time we're out this way. 😄“

I would like to see faster service for tables, but again, I understsnd. Great people, atmosphere. Prices went up over the years , but that is everywhere. Still worth a membership! We go often! Great specials 🩷“

“Back in 1975 when I was just a kid hitchhiking in Tallmadge Ohio. A Zulu patch holder was getting off the expressway ramp and saw me hitchhiking.

“This is the old Dreamgirls it's been remodeled I'm not sure if there are dancers there because there were none there yesterday when I came however it seems to be a nice atmosphere people were talking and laughing and enjoying their self“

“I do enjoy a good cup of coffee on many occasions. Hey! Man cannot live on beer alone! Sometimes you just need a little caffeinated kick to get the say going, and Lola's gives you that along with great taste and quality product.I discovered this lovely place thanks to my work, and I couldn't get over how great the place smelled as soon as I walked in.“

“Parking was hard to find in the small lot but we made it work. Seat yourself. This place isn’t fancy. Come as you are. The burgers are a decent size and well seasoned and tasty. The French fries and potato skins were also very good. A burger is 7.50. Cheeseburgers are 8.50 and the platters are a few dollars more to get 2 sides. For the decent quality and good size, it’s a very good value. Fed all 4 of us on less than $50.00.“

“I recently had the pleasure of hanging out at Mercedes Tavern, and I can confidently say that it has become my new favorite spot in Akron! Under its new ownership, this tavern has transformed into a welcoming gem that truly captures the essence of community and great food. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a friendly atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The new owners are incredibly accommodating, ensuring that every guest feels valued and well taken care of. It's evident that they are passionate about creating a fantastic dining experience. Now, let's talk about the food! I tried the turkey melt with Dijon mustard, and it was absolutely delicious. The combination of flavors was spot on, and the sandwich was perfectly grilled to perfection. Paired with their crispy waffle fries, it made for a satisfying meal that I can't wait to have again. If you're looking for a place that offers great food and a welcoming vibe, Mercedes Tavern is a must-visit. I can't recommend it enough! Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or a leisurely meal with friends, you're sure to leave with a smile on your face. Cheers to the new owners for creating such a delightful experience!“

“First time there last Saturday night to see my buddys band . Great atmosphere, top notch bartenders . Had a great time will definitely visit again“

“Have a good time every time I stop in for a drink or 10 drinks everyone is always nice. And last few times I did notice that they fixed the sewer issue it used to have a strange smell but glas to say that seems to be over. Just kidding come on down have a cold one on me if you see me there“

“bonfire out back and good prices good people always fin!!!“

“This is a great place to be, the staff and people who are there are friendly and personable. It is my favorite place to stop at when I am in the area doing scuba work for municipalities or just passing by. Our favorite bar tender was out due to surgery, but her replacement was just as accommodating. It is truly a place that you can stop in and feel welcome striking up a conversation with anyone at the bar. Absolutely a great time. I hope to attend a band event someday.“
