| - Just a quick one. Road trip to Kent to see what we could see. Just your average "I live in Youngstown, so need to travel" kind of things. Bar was dead on the afternoon we went, the wifey and I, and we was thirsty and hungry.
After some reflection on the choices, went with Water Street Tavern. Was not disappointed at all. Bonus, it is attached to Mr. Zubs subs (see their reviews on Yelp) who serve really great sammys and assorted what not subs and such.
AND... a rooftop patio. Was a perfect day for it, had a couple of 2 dollar Labatt 16 oz drafts, and a pretty good reuben (wife had a something-or-other that she said was good) from Zub's. Zubs is worth a trip, nice menu. And a few vegan options that did tempt me. I do like me some sprouts and cukes every now and then, and Zub's menu had those options as well as meat type stuff.
Was good. Left happy. Am going to search out this place again when they have their bands on Wednesday and Friday. Looks like a good time.
And Downtown Kent Ohio is definitely worth the drive. I would go out of my way to come here if I lived in Pitt or Cleveland. On a festival night, or whatever. So, not just the bar, and the sandwich, but a really nice park and walking environment.
A lot better than I remember it being ten years ago...
