| - I LOVE this market.
I've been here many times now in my 2.5 months working downtown and living in Cleveland. I love this place because of several reasons:
1 - LOCATION: Convenient location because it is in downtown Cleveland. If you work downtown then stop by for lunch or an early dinner after work.
SEATING is available inside and outside. I will say that the tables and chairs are sometimes messy (food crumbs) when I arrive for lunch because other people don't clean up after themselves and the staff probably waits until lunch is over before they clean up so that i just one downside. Nothing too horrible though.
2 - FOOD CHOICES: Great selection of food to eat including a grocery store where you can find common staple items. There is hot foods bar, prepared and packaged foods section, a salad bar, snacks, and sweets. Fresh and healthy too...YUM. I've only had one lunch here that wasn's so great. I believe it was beef, which I never eat.
3 - PRICE: For my current budget, the price is average although buying lunch or dinner here can get expensive. There are 3 different sized plastic containers you grab to plate your food. After spending almost $9 twice on lunch, I started grabbing the small and medium sized containers for lunch and I spend between $3.50-$4.50 for lunch. I snack (apples, nuts, etc) throughout the day at work so I don't need a heavy lunch. Mostly, I try to pack my lunch to work but coming here for food is a great alternative. For groceries, I've only bought peanut butter and I think bread (?) from here and the prices seemed higher than usual so I personally would not shop here but given that this is downtown, no real complaints.
4 - REWARD POINTS: You should sign up for their rewards program. Anytime you buy a item here, you rack up points. Once you get a certain number of points, you get a free item (sorry, I can't remember the speficis). So eventually, you will be saving money. My co-worker comes here all the time so she uses my Constantinos card when she buts lunch which helps me rack up more points faster.
5 - PARKING: There is no parking lot. Meter parking available on the street. I walk here from my office building so I don't have to worry about driving.
COME HERE :)
