CHOICES
When traveling and stuck at an airport you are left with choices. At some point you must decide between the lesser of two evils.
This place seemed easy for us because it had a kids menu and a beer special. We decided we were going to hold out for Rick Bayless in Chicago but the little one needed food.
Charmain our waitress was very nice and full of positive energy. She seemed to love her job and that translates well to being a customer. We ordered a kids meal with 2 Chicken Tenders and mandarin oranges. The little one really liked it. She was not happy with the overly sweet BBQ sauce. She is turning into such a foodie. The chicken fingers were not out of this world but it sure filled up a hungry belly. We opted for the fruit over deep fried fries.
We dived in on the $5.50 everyday special of 16oz cans of Bud Light. No airport has beer prices that low, so we were happy to enjoy a little adult beverages prior to flying.
The space is very comfy. There are a lot of TVs around in case you want to enjoy the big game or SportsCenter. There is also a $4 shot special which you can add on to any beer purchase. I did not enjoy this special but the slurring guy next to us was thoroughly having a great time. I am not sure who carried him to his flight and there's a good possibility he is probably still stuck in the booth.
This place even has an All You Can Eat breakfast buffet before 9am. I only read about this and did not eat it. I just have never seen an AYCE inside of an airport. On a side note I'm not sure I could recommend that prior to taking off in an airplane. Hopefully you don't meet any turbulence along the way or everyone on the plane will be seeing your breakfast.
So if you find yourself stuck in the Cleveland Airport then I recommend you choose this bar. It's a great place to have a few drinks and a light snack prior to taking off.
