Looking for a small bar with outdoor seating, live music, and a cozy atmosphere? The Barking Spider is the place for you.
The bar isn't very large and isn't really easy to find. Nestled behind the Coffeehouse on Juniper and next to L'Albatros in the middle of Case's campus, it's a place most people hear about through word of mouth. But, it's one of the best places on campus to go and relax. If you go early in the day during the spring in the summer, you'll be able to enjoy a beer or two in a place that will make you forget you're in the middle of Cleveland.
There isn't a huge draft selection. Food is limited to snacks, such as pretzels and potato chips. But in terms of the atmosphere, it's hard to find anything else like it in the middle of Cleveland.
