If you're a fine dining gourmand, stay far, far away. But if you like your food so greasy and fattening you can almost hear the kids screaming on the Ferris Wheel, this place is for you.
Located in a sad looking retail strip, The Midway is a compact neon hole in the wall with fair and carnival posters plastered everywhere. It's an experiment in food at McD's prices but offering treats that you used to only get during the summer at your local county fair. With a large variety of sandwiches from cheese steaks to Italian sausage, gyros to fried bologna, you can order your favorite with a side of fresh chips or fair fries with vinegar. They even offer fried dill pickles and cheese on a stick.
And they not only offer elephant ears and cotton candy for dessert, but you can try a deep fried Twinkie or Euclid Beach's Humphrey Popcorn Balls.
Kids' meals are under $4 and include a "mini" elephant ear or funnel cake although it took three people to finish off my daughter's plate size version.
The owners are eager to please and very friendly. I'd love to see this place succeed just for the novelty of it.
