“Love the Gardens!!l one of my favorite places!”

“I had one of the best Turkey on Rye Sandwich I ever Inhaled. Dalton and crew have A Clean Fast Friendly Atmosphere. Everything was fresh. As far as Portion. If you can’t finish because of Big Sandwich. Share it with a Friend. It was better than Homemade.”

“I visited for the first time and I just have to say how good this place is! There were about 20 of us. We never had an issue getting a drink, or anything else we wanted. Cocktails were good and strong, the sushi was tasty, and the entrees were flavorful. There was no skimping on the portions either. I got 3 dinners out of mine. We will be back!”

“I cannot recommend Porchlight enough! I have become a frequent flyer— no seriously— twice a dad visits. I love the convenience of their online ordering in the morning and their great cafe space for lunch. There is no wrong answer when it comes to their variety of flavors for your lattes. Truly a skillfully crafted coffee menu along with flavor-packed food options. My absolute favorite menu item is their harvest Cobb salad. I CAN’T GET ENOUGH! Dried cranberries, grilled chicken, feta (I think), walnuts, topped with the to-die-for maple vinaigrette on a bed of lettuce. Seriously, there is NO reason NOT to go to Porchlight. Cheers!”

“delicious food made by good people!”

“My wife and I came here last month for the first time. I can promise youn we will return. We were seated promptly and greeted by our wait person Sam. she also introduced us to her two helpers. The food was fantastic, I had the Smoked Scallops as an appetizer, the salmon for my protein and risotto as a side. We had the carrot cake for dessert. all of it was perfect. the best thing is, we were not rushed thru our meal it was a very relaxing 2 hour meal. We will return again soon.”

“The service is always amazing & the food is always top tier. I’ve been fighting a cold the last few days and all I’ve craved is their chicken noodle soup. A friend was nice enough to grab some for me and it did not disappoint. Thank you so much!”

“I will be honest, I haven’t eaten there yet but just had the greatest experience that restored my faith in humanity just a little bit. I was in the Akron area for training with TNVC and I assume my iPad was stolen. Today it pinged at someone’s house and then it pinged in the parking lot of the Basement a few hours after I locked it and left a message for the would be thief. I called and spoke with Stephanie, and after explaining what had happened she was king enough to walk to the parking lot while I pinged it. The thief had dumped my iPad in the dumpster, thankfully not too deep. I just wanted to say that Stephanie was amazing for being such a good person and helping someone with no expectation of receiving anything in return. Next time my family and I are in the Akron/waterloo area I will make sure I patronize The Basement if only to help repay a bit of the kindness shown! This is how a neighborhood restaurant does it!”

“The wife and I made a day trip to Akron to pick up something and thought we’d stop in for breakfast. Very friendly staff. Seated promptly and the waitress reviewed the specials and let us look at the menu for a minute. The owner came out and talked about some of the specials and brought us a sample treat. We ordered a couple of the eggs Benedict daily specials (one was the classic and the other was corned beef). We upgraded the hash browns to Mystic potatoes (cheesy hash browns). Everything was delicious! The cheesy hash browns were phenomenal and the Benedicts were both very good. My wife also got some pancakes which were cooked perfectly! There was enough food to bring some home for tomorrow! Highly recommend!”

“Our favorite family spot. The quintessential small town ice cream shop.

Freshly made. Tons of flavors. Soft serve flavors rotate. (Picture is 10/13/26) Picnic benches, pavilions and well lit at night. Pumpkins for sale in the fall. Ice Cream Cake Shop in the back.

Most of all - the servings are huge and the prices are so fair.”

“Everything I have tried so far has been delicious!!! The customer service is stellar. So kind and professional. And the restaurant is SO clean!!!!”
