Having grown up on Davis' baked goods and deli from the time Eastgate opened in the mid-1950s, it was difficult to watch the chain of many bakeries downsize constantly over many years. But the remaining factory and store, and the one store remaining in a shopping center--in Woodmere across from Eaton, haven't missed a beat. Davis has the best rye bread--ever. And the best coconut bars. And the best rolls--both Kaiser and egg. And my personal favorite--bagel chips--can't be duplicated. And the Deli--excellent corned beef, turkey off the bone, and potato salad. I love stopping by for a sandwich to go--made expertly by the deli counter people.
The only downside has always been the same--the women behind the bakery counters and at the registers are frequently down-right nasty!
So--what else could I ask for? Do you want to become a hero to your out of town friends and relatives who used to live in Cleveland? Go to this website:

PS: Just remembered that they have the BEST Russian Tea Biscuits.
