    A bit of a dive bar to go get some drinks. My father-in-law likes to perform at various clubs and bars so we went to go support. The lady behind the bar graciously let my kids sit to watch and even got them set up with two Shirley Temples right away - nice. I ordered some cider, but when the keg kicked, and it was less than half filled, she just gave me the drink and I ended up purchasing some local hard tea. They have a few beers on tap, some Ohio brews, but mostly big names. A lot of bottled domestics available as well as a bit selection of low to mid-shelf liquors. For entertainment, there's whoever's playing that night, as well as some TVs showing sporting events and then there are some pool tables and other games in the back. If you want any of that with some affordable drinks, this is the place for you.

    If you're over 35 and in the Valley, this is the place for you simply because you'll feel young instead of old in the other bars. Avg age on a weekend night is 45+... but the music is good and the drinks are reasonable. Good regular/dive bar.

    Great food and service. Terrific bands as well. I recommend the Akron burger and onion rings. Outstanding.

    Gives new meaning to the term dive bar or should read dive bar is an understatement. It was gross. Bad service. Band was good.

    Met some friends and had a great time. Friendly people - but dance floor very small.

    Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. Partner ordered wings…read moreand I opted for the chicken sandwich. Both were very tasty. The huge portion of fries was too much (but delicious nonetheless!) It's worth noting that they share a space with Magic City Brewing and when walking in, it wasn't immediately clear what we were supposed to do. The only bartender on staff wasn't particularly talkative/welcoming in the sense of explaining what was going on or how things worked ...and the Cult Kitchen staff are behind a window past the bar. (I dont necessarily blame CK for the MCB bartender, but they're choosing to share that space and it's part of the experience so it seems like it's relevant.) We sat down at a booth and realized was a small table sign with a QR code for the food and drink menu. Below the codes is a small line of text that explains to go to the Cult Kitchen window for food and go to the bar for drinks. This isn't necessarily a bad setup, just had to adjust our mindset as it's more casual and in line with a food truck experience. ...like going up to the window more ketchup (it's in little lidded containers) for all those fries ...and cleaning up after yourself, as there is no one busing tables. Again, the food was very good but the overall experience was just lacking. It seems like it could be something really special if the hospitality and service was there!

    In Akron for business and used Yelp to help find a place for a meal while in town…read more Be aware you will work a little upon arrival though at check out your are still offered the option to tip. Despite the positioning on their website it's not a traditional sit down place. It's an order window and then they bring food to the table. They share space with the Brewing company so a bottle of soda is what you get from the order window but anything else you go over to order at the bar separately. Two of us went for an early dinner. We opted for pretzel app which were tasty and a very big portion resulting in us not finishing them. I would say that app could easily serve 4. Slider special was tasty but considering the heavy portion of fries not everything on my plate was finished and neither was my coworkers meal. Eyes were bigger than our stomach. Place has about 10 (?) tables/booths and then folks sitting around the bar at the brewery side. I imagine on a popular day of the week (we went mid week before the dinner time rush) it could get crowded and loud. Feel of the place is grunge/biker though clean and well kept and without feeling 'theme restaurant'. I would say it has its only unique personality. Had we been more prepared from the restaurant's website for what the place was we might have more enjoyed things. It's just feels more 'out drinking and getting the nibbles' than a destination meal.
