The chili is the best I've tasted in NE Ohio. The burgers, however, are large but bland. The fries are one of my favorites. A long drive from Cleveland but convenient to Medina and Akron areas.
I have to comment on some of the confusing reviews here. Are these former customers who were banned from the bar or made enemies with the bartenders? In all seriousness, I've never found the servers to be cocky or rude. I mean, all restaurants have their attitude queens, whether male or female, but Whitey's is no worse than the average. People are bashing the burgers- I can understand, but what about the chili- this is what Whitey's is famous for? You can't pay with a credit card? This is your big problem? Stop whining and be honest people. You pissed off a bartender and now you want to trash the place. Whitey's is not a dive and is not trashy. Neither is it gourmet. It's just an all-American kind of beer and fried food place.
