1. Giant Eagle
This Giant Eagle store is off to a very good start. The place is HUGE, and includes the usual edible and non edible grocery items, good produce department, good beer and wine selection, state liquor agency (that's Ohio's way of saying liquor store…More »
2. Radioshack
I needed to buy a new earpiece bluetooth headset to go with my cell phone. As soon as I walked in the store, I was already greeted by three friendly employees and eager to help me. This made the visit off the a good start as every time I go someplace…More »
3. Pulp Juice and Smoothie Bar
Macedonia, OH 44056
(330) 467-0022
Came here for the first time on Friday, two days ago. When you walk into the store, a clean, well maintained setting with a background of loud music and a wide open space with little seating welcomes you. In some ways, this place looks like the…More »
4. Get Go Fuel Station
Broadview Heights, OH 44147
(412) 963-6200
Categories:
Gas & Service Stations,
Convenience Stores
I recently received a private message here at Yelp calling my reviews silly because I'm from Broadview Heights and write about banks and gas stations. Well, in honor of this rhetoric, I'm going to review, what else, a gas station, which recently…More »
5. Malley's Chocolates
North Royalton, OH 44133
(440) 582-1570
Categories:
Chocolatiers and Shops,
Candy Stores
This Malley's just opened today. What used to be a storefront for some kind of whatever has been transformed into a beautiful, nice looking and nice smelling chocolate and candy store.
Its easy to say this place looks like the usual Malley's store,…More »
6. Officemax
Needed to buy ink for my computer's printer. Came here on an early Saturday evening. The people who work here were friendly, professional and eager to help. I knew exactly what I needed to buy, so that part of the visit took a very short time. When…More »
7. B Spot
This place looks almost a lot like it's East side location, including the large beer can collection on that wall that spell out the letter B, as well as tasteful, contemporary art hanging on the walls. There's also lots of flat screen TVs, tables and…More »
8. EyeMasters
Came here this morning for an eye exam, as well as shopping for potential vision correction. I was greeted by professional yet caring and friendly staff members. I was told there would be a 45 minute wait but they would be able to give me a complete…More »
9. Pearle Vision
Strongsville, OH 44136
(440) 268-0765
Categories:
Eyewear & Opticians,
Optometrists
Needed an eye exam as I haven't had one in over three years. Many friends and others, both in the Chicago, Illinois and the Cleveland, Ohio areas, recommended Pearle Vision for the services. So I went to their website to get more information about…More »
10. Guys Pizza Co.
Macedonia, OH 44056
(330) 468-2222
We came here earlier tonight for the first time. Given our positive experiences and exceeding expectations at the downtown Kent, Ohio store, we figured to give this location a shot.
This store is located in a shopping center and has a parking lot.…More »
11. Taco Bell
There's a saying "never judge a book by its cover". This would be the subtitle for my review.
This Taco Bell location opened in August 2010. From the outside, the place looks a bit upscale, even for a Taco Bell. Had it not been for the Taco Bell…More »
12. Sagamore Quik Chek
Good mini mart and or convenience store in a good location, especially when you're hot and thirsty. They cram a lot in a little space but overall the place is clean and organized. Plenty of cold drinks to choose from. Its like an oasis in the desert…More »
13. TGI Fridays
TGI Fridays reminds me of the "Chatsky's" place from the 1999 movie "Office Space"- flair all over the servers AND all over the wall, but without the cheesy stereotypes.
Clean inside and outside, and with the right amount of lighting inside, TGI…More »
14. Stonewall Ltd
Well stocked firearms store with a good selection of guns, rifles, other firearms, ammo, cleaning supplies, luggage for firearms, and other related knick knacks. The store is good sized and cramped, though nothing gets in your way, except for the…More »
15. Northfield Gun and Tackle
Small store that sells new and used firearms, though they seem to specialize in very old or even antique firearms. They don't seem to have much of a selection, though this is a store that may have what you want and cant find anywhere else.
The guys…More »
16. Steak Escape
If there was any way to "Americanize" American food, then Steak Escape may have found that way.
"Steak Escape" makes food to order. The dining room is spacious and clean with plenty of tables and chairs. You can see the crew go to work on your food…More »
17. Panera Bread
Almost looks like any other Panera Bread with a few differences here and there. This place was very busy on a late Saturday morning.
Given that it was close to Lunch time, I decided to get a toasted Asiago Cheese bagel with a side of sun dried tomato…More »
18. Famous Footwear
Good sized, clean, eye pleasing, not too overwhelmingly decorated store, with lots of shoes arranged in an order which makes it easy to find what you're looking for.
As a matter of fact, for the guys shoes, I liked what they have, and many of the…More »
19. Carquest Auto Parts
North Royalton, OH 44133
(440) 237-8700
For an auto parts store, I expected this place to be a little bigger. They have a lot of stuff for sale on the store floor, as well as more expensive items behind the counter. It seems crammed but all merchandise items are arranged neatly and orderly…More »
20. Martini Skate and Snow
I appreciate the skateboard and snowboard sport and culture in part because of ska and punk rock music, and that those are fast and fun sports.
Yesterday, I was in the market for a new winter cap. So I came here with a female friend. This store has a…More »

21. Loder's Shake Shoppe
North Royalton, OH 44133
(440) 237-6020
Categories:
Burgers,
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
I had a taste for an ice cold vanilla malt. Thankfully this place was on the way home. Ive always wanted to try this place!
The outside has the look of an almost classic fast food place which features ice cream products, especially shakes and malts.…More »
22. D'Agnese's Italian Restaurant
This location opened within the last two months and seems to be making a good impression in the area. When Ive been by this place, the place is nearly full. Coming here for lunch today, the place wasn't 100% full but enough to keep everyone busy.
The…More »
23. The Dark Room
"The Dark Room" is literally a dark room- the walls and ceilings are painted black, most of the floor is black, the bar is black, the tables and chairs are black and metal. Besides the two flat screen TVs, this place plays Heavy Metal, Punk and…More »
24. Brecksville Doughnuts & Coffee Shoppe
Small to medium sized, no thrills, but clean and comfortable place that serves hot fresh, full of body coffee (Kona, as they claim), and freshly made, tasty, diet-killing "doughnuts". They also have muffins, but the coffee and "doughnuts" rule here.…More »
25. Kirlan's Hallmark
Friendly yet quiet associates and so many Mother's Day cards to choose from in a clean, organized setting with the usual overpriced stuff which I never buy is good enough for me!
I come here for the cards, and not the "stuff" stuff! :=P
NOTE- the store…More »
26. JC Penney
Friendly associates that work here, lots of great clothing selections, and sales that couldn't have come at a better time. How good were the sales? A Polo shirt that normally sells for $36.00 was $13.00 after discounts! A pair of Cargo Shorts that…More »
27. TaxCheck USA
Just had my income taxes done and e-filed by TaxCheck USA and I couldn't be more happy!
Edward Giaco, the CEO, was my tax preparer. He is a gentleman, a great listener, and knows his craft. I explained to him my situations and gave him the paperwork…More »
28. Ohio State Route 82, Cuyahoga River
44141
Category: Landmarks & Historical Buildings
It's not only the Cuyahoga County and Summit County border, its also a bridge over the Cuyahoga River and valley which gives you some of the best scenic views in this part of the state. While the scenery is dramatic year round, the Fall season is the…More »
29. Interstate 480 and Ohio 14 between I-271 and I-80
This is a short, fast by Ohio standards (translation, 65 mph), semi-rural, four lane divided freeway which takes you through the wilds of Ohio. The drive and ride here provides relaxing, eye pleasing scenery that you will LIKE and always like.
This…More »
30. Mom's Deli & Grill
I had some errands to get done this morning, with time to spare. That feeling of adventure and being random as well as hunger has come over me, and when I was in the area, I decided to stop here and give this place a try. Ive passed by this place…More »
31. Gran Fiesta
Graaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan Fiestaaaaaaaaaaaa! :=P
The place is clean inside and has LOTS of tables and chairs. Festive music sung in Spanish blared through the air louder than what its going to sound like at Bristol Motor Speedway this weekend!…More »
32. Kathy Bakhshi- Artist
Go to the Starbucks in Brecksville, Ohio this month, and you'll see Kathy Bakhshi's paintings on display. The paintings are simple and sophisticated, and pleasing to the eye and relaxing and lively enough to tell a thousand tales and perform Triple…More »
33. Hershey's Ice Cream
Clean place with plenty of ice cream flavors and what looks like fancy chocolate candies. You would think you stepped into the Beverly Hills of ice cream places when in fact the place is casual and the prices are fair.
Service was friendly, helpful,…More »
34. Royal Park Fine Wine
Small but spacious store which will soon expand into a store front next door. In fact, when I went there today, some crew or crews were pounding away next door, working on getting the expansion space ready.
The place is clean and classy, featuring…More »
35. Corned Beef Cafe
They need a bigger parking lot. That is my only gripe about this place.
Corned Beef Cafe is a small, modest, homey and clean place, where there is no uniformity with the tables and chairs. It looks like they may have recycled used tables and chairs…More »
36. 82nd Street Grill and Pub
North Royalton, OH 44133
(440) 230-0702
Categories:
Sports Bars,
American (Traditional)
Not your bar from your college days- sorry about that. This is a clean and classy place with fun but well mannered clientele. The table tops and bar are a shiny wood. Some of the other table tops are made of stone.
This is certainly a local place.…More »
37. Angie's Pizza
Just as Northfield has Farinacci's, North Royalton has Angie's.
Angie's is that "hole in the wall" place located in a strip mall. It's been around since 1955 and popular with the locals. The store is small, and crammed with tables, booths and chairs,…More »
38. Arabica
Today I finally achieved one of my goals after moving to this area- to visit an Arabica coffee house!
The Northfield location is good sized, lots of chairs and tables, a couch, a fireplace, and a rustic interior with different shades of brown. A whole…More »
39. Westfield SouthPark
What can I say? I like this place. I went here today, though didn't buy anything. The mall has something for everyone- two stories of stores, eateries, and a movie theater. The place is clean, energetic, and there's a sales person lurking in places…More »
40. BP Oil Company
With one of the lowest gas prices in the area ($3.69/gal regular unleaded last I looked) this place gets busy in a controlled chaos kind of way.
