After visiting Kent State University we needed a place to relax and have a snack. We found "The…read moreRiver Merchant" 5 minutes from campus on the Cuyahoga River. It is easy to find, easy to park, spacious with plenty of seating and an outdoor deck overlooking the river. We were seated promptly and greeted by a very nice young lady by the name of Lorelei (quite a wonderful name). She was effective, efficient, pleasant, and made our experience that much better. At the entrance was a surprisingly well stocked wine cellar with some very good names. I was looking forward to a nice glass of wine for lunch. Unfortunately, the table selection only included a very few obscure names by the glass, so that option was out. The menu included all the standard burgers, flatbreads, and odds and ends one would expect. The food was good and we had a nice lunch. We finished with a nice cup of coffee and a pleasant smile from Lorelei. I very much enjoyed our excursion to Kent State University and "The River Merchant". I would recommend both.

Definitely coming back soon!

Service was excellent and we followed their suggestions for lunch. Delicious food was enjoyed including a tasty charcuterie board and baked soft pretzels. I sampled the Hefeweizen and a saison.

Marsha, our server was very nice and extremely attentive. 10/10 I would recommend!!

Debated whether to leave a review here at all but after a couple of months...I'm here to give you…read moreguys the real deets. I owe it to fellow diners out here because I disagree with 90% of the reviews on here. The good: the owner greeted us and served us as he explained a worker was out sick. Owner is super friendly, gregarious and pleasant. There was a friendly cat either sitting next to us or roaming leisurely around the tiny house restaurant. One star just goes to the cat for being such a well behaved staff member. The free garlic bread was the only thing that I considered good here. They appeared to be just hotdog buns smushed, toasted and smeared with so much salt and butter it was drowning in everything. But it was crunchy and had flavor! The bad: the food was not good, y'all. Did it look and taste homemade? Almost painfully so. Pasta was watery, no real sauce (just canned pineapple syrup from the can), shrimp was BOILED (not seared, fried nor grilled), salad dressing was just oil with no herbs or spices or anything! Nothing was seasoned and all dishes looked boiled and so pale. BF said he saw the owner move pasta from pan to plate with his hands; no gloves... Prices were really high for no reason. Our very basic dishes were $28+. Portions were very small especially for pasta dishes. I am grateful he gave me like 2 extra shrimps but I had to take them to re-cook them better at home! BF got some chicken dish that was so white looking it was translucent. He said it didn't have any flavor and we needed to douse everything in pepper, salt, hot sauce, whatever. Ventilation was so bad in the tiny house. There was just steam and fumes that stayed and wafted around us the whole time. My clothes smelled like cooking fumes and old oil for a week. I'm glad he gets plenty of business and has regulars who come. They are all in their 70s and 80s and probably local. I have such high standards for food, cooking, seasoning that this just wouldn't cut it but I'm glad BF and I finally checked it out as it's close to where he lives. For a place to have Grill in the name, there was nothing on the very limited menu that was grilled.

I had to fight with them to try to eat my food which I decided wasn't sanitary, so I asked for a check. 15 minutes later, had to ask a different waitress. Neither wondered at our full plates or even asked if we were ok. I'll never go back again. I think we were ignored because we aren't regulars. I think they know they corner the market for restaurants in Brimfield and so they simply couldn't care less. We were celebrating something special. It really took the sparkle off being treated so poorly.

This quintessential college…read moretown bar has a charmingly rough aesthetic which is pretty much what I want when I think "college bar." It has wooden booth seats, is dimly lit and contains mostly down to earth patrons of all ages. The service was prompt and our server was pleasant. My friend ordered a grilled cheese with fries and thought it was good overall (nothing spectacular). I really enjoyed my chicken gyro mostly because I couldn't detect dill in the cucumber sauce that it came with, and I really dislike dill which is often in tzatziki sauce.

The interior is warm and inviting and has the feel of a cozy pub. There's a large amount of seating, including a bar, tables, and booths.

Nothing fancy, just a quick evening meal. Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was just OK, nothing spectacular if I was in the area and looking for a place to pop in for a drink, I may come back, but it wouldn't be on the top of my list.

Why Hillside, would you have only have one bar maid/waitress at 6:30pm on a Saturday??? There were almost 30 people she alone waited on, plus some pick ups. She needs words of affirmation for keeping her polite composure and smile! Please giver a raise along with some help!!' There was one older man standing at the end of the bar that took some plates to a table. That's all he did the hour we were there while the waitress hustled and hustled!!!
