Great food. I really like the reuben or definitely fish on Fridays. Friendly fast service with a smile. Love this place

The College Inn never ceases to amaze us. The food is homemade and the portion sizes are on par! My go-to is the cajun chicken, baked potato, green beans and a side salad. My dad loves their fish on Fridays! A too local spot to check out! read more

We were visiting the area for some business and needed late lunch early dinner plus we had a baby with us and it was compared to scratch homemade cooking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is very bright & clean space and very inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu has a little of everything. We had chicken tenders and some special turkey sandwich which we were very tasty. I only wish we were able to try some dessert or the fish. read more

Had the chicken salad roll up. Delicious and they don't skimp on the meat either. Great service and lots of menu options. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Diner/neighborhood / folksy vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Second time here and I will keep coming back. read more

Somewhere between a counter restaurant and a diner, there is The College Inn. As you might expect by the name, it's just off campus of Mount Union College. The food was quite good and a lot was on the menu. While I enjoyed the Cajun chicken quite a bit, the kind hearted service was what I wil remember the most, even if as a Southern guy, I had to figure a few local specialities out ! read more

To start off the service from Amanda was excellent. We had onion rings for a starter. they were delicious, they weren't dancing greasy. They had a crisp taste. Very good. My wife had the the Reuben fries and they were to die for, fresh cut fries and we're not greasy. I had a roast beef dinner with mashed potatoes that were delicious and they were homemade mashed potatoes. I also had the wedding soup for starters and it was awesome. I highly recommend this gem in Alliance. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Classic diner feel, right on Main Street in Alliance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Above average food, big diverse menu, excellent selection of rotating desserts. Service was friendly. Prices weren't amazing, but in 2024 it's about what you'd expect. If you're looking for a quick bite with good food, service at a reasonable price, I wouldn't hesitate to give the College Inn a try! read more

It's been a while since I've eaten here but I'm reminded of a grilled cheese sandwich that had coleslaw on it. It was a little bit messy but the taste was really good. I don't know if it's a regular thing on their menu but it is worth asking for it. read more

Didn't know where to ear, let Yelp make a pick! Drove pass this many times and never thought about stopping. Glad we stepped out of the box and found something new. The young lady, Casey, was the nicest person, very pleasant even after a very long day, I'm sure. Definitely will return.... read more

The College Inn - Ruben and fries - Fast Food Near Me - Alliance, Ohio

See all

I am a fan of the coneys here and would recommend them. They have the right bread and nicely cooked dogs. Two hands to lift this hefty coney but one handed eating works after you start. One coney is probably enough to satisfy almost everyone. The coney sauce is a tomato based thin chili which reminds me of sloppy Joe a little in taste but not consistency. There was no dripping or anything like other chili dogs I have had. I recommend upgrading to fries over chips and I prefer the cheddar coney with onions to the regular coney dog. As a chili dog fan, I rate this dog 7/10. This joint is pretty much for locals and the service is geared for dine in over take out (at least in my experience of a single visit). read more

Five stars all around! Friendly service. Delicious chili dogs. The homemade chips were great. Grilled cheese for my son was perfect. Everything here was top notch. High quality food at a reasonable price. It wasn't crowded when we were there and we really enjoyed the ambiance. I can't wait to come back. I'll be thinking about that hot dog for a long time. read more

Clam chowder was crazy good! Nice people, nice establishment. Food good! Only complaint, don't get the tap water ...... very irony/sulfury, but everything else was great read more

Visiting from NC for the week. My brother, from Hartville, suggested I try this restaurant. Friendly staff and fast serving. Fast food delivery too. Large menu selections, with daily specials on a white board. I ordered the hot roast beef sandwich with white bread and it was huge. Lots of gravy on the sandwich. So some suggestions: toast the white bread ( adds a little crunch, less soggy) and take it easy on the salt in the gravy- meat. I wanted the chocolate- moose cheese cake ( on the specials board) but was out....fix your board! I will be back .... 5 stars!! read more

I hadn't eaten here in year's and I joined my girlfriends here for dinner. We had a decent meal. No frills and nothings fancy. But the food was good. read more

Finally ate here for the first time since moving to Alliance. Food was excellent and service was quick and very friendly. I'd easily recommend this place to people. read more

Never been there, but my family's been there a lot. Food is great for the price. I'm gonna have to try their fish sandwiches.

We love to eat here! The food is so incredibly delicious, and the homemade soups are to die for! Their salads are so good, and their house dressing is the best dressing I've ever tasted! Don't forget to get a side of fresh cut fries! read more

Consistently tasty and freshly prepared food. Traditional fare with some local sandwich combinations. Yummy fish fry prepared by local legend each Friday. Friendly service and lots of regular customers. Closed Sundays and Mondays. Call for takeout and pull around back to the window! read more

An Alliance eatery institution and worthy of all compliments. Excellent All American-style cuisine.

I was really conflicted about giving College Inn a 3 or 4 rating, but we'll get back to that in a moment. College Inn is great for take out, & they specialize in their sandwich selection. I'm especially fond of their Friday Fish Special, which I usually pair with She-Crab Soup or Clam Chowder - Friday exclusives. It's also nice that they have a drive though window! You can call, place your order, & then pick it up out back all without getting out of your car. But, the huge downside is that the quality can differ dramatically based on when you stop in or who is working. This is a shame given how good the food CAN be at times. Beyond this, I wish they would adopt some sides that aren't deep fried. I would like to live past the age of 40 without cardiac issues if possible...... read more

If you like fish fridays is the best, friendly staff and quick service, overall very nice place

Local deli/dinner that hits the spot. I do enjoy the turkey Reuben and they have homemade chips that are really good as well.

I have eaten at this restaurant 3-4 times in the past few months. My favorite lunch selection is the Chicken Salad wrap. The service is very prompt, friendly and helpful. The interior is very clean, excellent lighting and several different choices for seating. There are many selections on the menu and a "Specials Board" for lunch and dinner. My guess guess is that this restaurant is very dependable for a good meal regardless of the time of day. If you like a Friday fish dinner, check my photo of what I would call the King Kong of fish sandwiches. If my memory serves me, they do not open until 11:00AM close early in the evening. read more

The College Inn - The KING KONG of fish sandwiches. Not only did the fish exceed my bun, it hung over both sides of a dinner plate. - Fast Food Near Me - Alliance, Ohio

The food is great, but the ridiculously long wait times to pick up orders at the drive up window is insane. Everything is cold by the time you get to eat it. Terribly disappointing because the food really is fantastic when it's still fresh and hot. read more

I had chicken fingers and French fries with honey Dijon for dipping sauce. The chicken fingers were ok. The French fries were so grease soaked and mushy it made them inedible. The honey Dijon had a weird texture and horrible taste. It kinda tasted watered down and old. My Mountain Dew was good. read more

Passing through this town on a trip we saw the Yelp reviews and stopped in. Glad we did. Add us to the list of satisfied diners. As frequent travelers, we try to avoid chains so we love using Yelp to help find good local joints. College Inn Eatery was an enjoyable experience. Our waitress Morgan helped make soup recommendations which we needed to warm up on a dark snowy night. And she kept our soda glasses filled. Thanks Morgan! For dinner we went with the tried and true Reuben and with the homemade chips it was the perfect comfort food. Also had the broccoli and cheese poofs appetizer and they were warm and filling too. Definitely will stop here again if close by. They have a large menu and apparently will custom make sandwiches on request. Yeah, the parking lot is kinda small but we were there an hour before closing time and were able to park without any problem. read more

Love love love! This place is always a classic. Every time I visit family in Alliance, I stop in! Everything I've eaten has been amazing. The grilled sandwiches are always a good choice and I always upgrade to their thin French fries! Yum so good. If you like smoked turkey and onions, get The Duke! Grilled onions, turkey, bacon, cream cheese and a hint of BBQ sauce. What else could you ask for?! The Gobbler is also a classic. Yum yum yum. If you're looking for a healthier option, the salads are also scrumptious!! I've had a couple different ones and I love them. My sisters favorite is the one that comes with fries! Did I mention their fries are amazing? Service is always friendly with a smile. It's definitely dive-y but I've never been disappointed! They do have carry out with and drive-they if you don't want to get out of your car. ;) read more

Amazing service and food!! French connection is the bomb!!! Broccoli cheddar poofs are addicting!

I really enjoy dining here. The food is always very good and reasonably priced. The portions are generous. The service is great and the staff is friendly. I could eat here everyday. The Veggie Reuben is the best!!!!! read more

This restaurant has been a popular lunch spot for college people for years and years. They also do a good dinner business, particularly with the older set. I like the specials and I like their menu which has several sandwiches named after regular customers. The business is locally owned and the quality of the service as well as the quality of the menu items reflect personal care. Try the chicken salad wrap or the Amish slaw sizzle. The fries are good with malt vinegar and salt. read more
