    a hand holding a bowl of fruit
    Lauren K.

    I love The Fruit Stand! Since meeting them at a Yelp event a while back, I always stop by if I'm in the area. I'm so jealous we don't have this local business in Cleveland, because if we did, I'd surely be here once a week. I love it that much. Jason, The Fruit Stand owner, started his local business to help bring fresh, affordable fruits to the community. When I went to Kent State, we had nothing but Chipotle and pizza and other collegey food stops, so it's amazing to see how deeply the tide has turned around dining options off campus at my beloved Kent State. Located within the Acorn Alley development, The Fruit Stand has an easy parking lot (and I believe it may have even been the former Popped popcorn location). You build your own bowl with base, toppings and fruit. So easy! The staff is super helpful and will be happy to help you build something delicious. My bowls are always AMAZING, fresh and filled with so much flavor. You really cannot beat the value for this fabulous fruit bowl. I could honestly count down until they moved to CLE if they ever did. Check them out!

    large fruit bowl twist - wild berry açaí + banana strawberry
    Alexandra K.

    I am so so happy this place exists!!! The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, the fruit bowl i got was the tastiest and freshest i have EVER had, and the employee who helped us out was just so sweet and kind and radiating positivity! It was truly such a lovely experience, i can't wait to frequent this adorable little spot I got a large fruit bowl with a twist - wild berry açaí + banana strawberry soft serve (all only fruit!) and for my fruit toppings i chose grapes, strawberries, pineapple, and banana. For my crunchies i chose flax meal and chia seeds. For my drizzles i just chose local honey. All of the fruit was perfectly ripe and sweet and delicious, none of that underripe, whiteish colored, burn-your-tongue nonsense that most places serve up. It was so extremely delightful and perfect all around. The soft serve was so delicious, i was in awe of the delicious flavor! Also, this spot has amazing prices and portions. The large was definitely very filling. As someone who has struggled with health issues my whole life, i have turned to the mucusless diet healing system and regenerative detoxification as a way to heal myself naturally - and it has worked miracles for me! Fruit is a very large part of my diet. I often feel like there is nowhere for me to go to have that experience of eating out. I cannot even explain how GRATEFUL i am that The Fruit Stand exists!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Also i'm really hoping for a location in Akron's Highland Square!

    The flavor blend of the fruits, crunch and acai is so good. A second trip in cold weather!

    Great açaí smoothie bowls! Inside is so cute and there's tables outside to sit at too. All the fruit is always super fresh and the açaí is always the perfect consistency, the twist is cool because they change the flavor that is twisted with the açaí, today it was peach and it was so good. The birthday cake granola is awesome and the honey drizzle on top was perfect.

    Once again. Completely amazing. This was my lunch on a hot Saturday afternoon. I had the açaí bowl with peaches, pineapple, and blueberries. I had the birthday cake granola topped with peanut butter drizzle. This place rocks.

    After seeing this place on Instagram over & over again, we finally made the jump to come in (on a winter day nonetheless!) and are so glad we did! It's a newer addition to Acorn Alley, and they've had some bumps in the road I think when it came to figuring out supply & demand, but they seem to have it ironed out now and I AM IN LOVE. After choosing an açaí base, you get 3 fruits, a crunchy & a drizzle. I got coconut + almond butter this time, but ended up also paying for pie crust too. I can't wait to come back and try the honey or give my bowl a different shot with fruits! This is such a great concept & I can't wait to see how this place blossoms and grows!

    Jenna and Jason are an absolute power duo. They made opening the fruit stand smooth and effective. After hearing nonstop about the Fruit Stand via instagram, I was so eager to try it! I am now going almost everyday and DO NOT feel guilty about it because of the fresh fruit and other wholesome ingredients. I've brought all of my friends here and not a single one of them have had anything bad to say about it. Super great and genuine people. A MUST when coming to Kent.

    Kent seemed to have everything it needed, until this little place opened! the staff is so friendly and helpful, and the vibes are truly immaculate! I love the large variety of options and how I have the opportunity to try every type of combination! As for my bowl, it is quite crunchy and delicious! Let's just say, I will be returning!

    Such a wonderful new discovery! This will definitely be a go-to for me since everything is so healthy with endless amounts of vegan options. The proportions are generous and everything tastes so good and fresh! I was extremely happy with my first experience here and applaud the staff for being so welcoming and helpful!

    Clean, bright, refreshing atmosphere

    Everyone knows fresh fruit is a healthy choice. This place obviously has that and is super fast. Friendly service once you walk in until you leave. Big Thumbs Up

    The Blue Door Cafe & Bakery is an award-winning brunch spot located close to Akron, Ohio that made…read morenational news when it was named the #6 Top Brunch Spot in the USA by Yelp in 2023. It has been on my list for ages but it isn't close to my house and the wait is always long! But in March 2026, my bf and I braved the wait so I can finally check this place out! Overall, it is clear why Blue Door is always packed - the food, while overpriced, is delicious and made by a team of talented chef and bakers! I'll say this was a 4.5 star experience. We were quoted a wait for about 45 minutes but we were seated after 30. The case of baked goods were enticing me the entire time but I resisted! Our waiter, Steven, was funny, helpful, and had a great personality. The place, obviously, was packed, with little room in between tables. We saw quite a few patrons order the incredibly indulgent horchata French toast ($24) and I don't think I witnessed anyone finish it! To start, I got a coffee from local coffee roasters, Angel Falls, for $3.50 and my boyfriend treated himself to a fancy hot chai $6.50. It was pretty good local coffee! I wanted to try their famous croissants so I ordered the croque madame croissant sandwich with breakfast potatoes ($21). The croque madame was incredible! The breakfast potatoes could have benefited from an interesting seasoning. My boyfriend wanted everything on the menu but decided on getting the "special menu" loaded baked potato breakfast burger with salt+vinegar brined house chips (aka fries) for $24. The potato inside was a large potato latke. This heavenly creation kept him full for hours. In the end, our bill was pretty pricey for a brunch but we enjoyed every bite. I'm not sure if I will be able to come here again since we got lucky with our wait, but they keep changing their menu and something might entice me so much, I'll endure any wait!

    I was really back and forth on whether to give this place four or five stars. Some of the food was…read moregreat. The chicken and sauce part of the chicken and waffles were amazing the corn beef hash dish was great. The waffles lacked real flavor and tasted odd. The coffee was great. Service was awesome but slow (took us 40 minutes to get our food). The restaurant is really cute looking and the pastry's look amazing but we only had the croissant which was great. The food was pretty expensive. We spent 70 bucks as a party of two. They definitely had large portions which is nice for the price however after moving here from Columbus, we've just had better for less for brunch/breakfast so that's why I needed to knock off a star. Still a good place but now where that we'd go to regularly because of the wait times and the price not making it feasible.

You can't miss the X-fighter plane right outside the entrance. They have outdoor seating during the warm months, but inside you can also sit and dine inside a bus! Aside from the experience, they have a massively EXTENSIVE menu! I mean, I'm not exaggerating! Of the many times I've been here, I haven't had the same thing twice. And I'm usually a creature of habit. There is something for literally everyone! The service is always good, the food is always great,... and best of all, their fares are always affordable. I love that I never have to break the bank to come here... and that's why I keep coming back!
