    Belgium waffle
    Dionne M.

    We had a good experience as a family Monday November 15,2021. Wanda was our server and she was very nice. The food was delicious. I had the Everything Omelet and a Belgium waffle. I wish there was a meal that combined the two as opposed to having to order and pay for them separately. However, I was very satisfied. The only draw back was my Mom and Aunt had to send their eggs back because the American cheese slice placed on top of their eggs wouldn't melt. We could hear the cook being very angry and argumentive to our server. He was unprofessional, loud, and way too mad about replacing eggs. He also gave no care as to whether we heard him or not. Wanda bared the brunt of his anger though and still served us with a smile.

    After a few morning errands, aquick Google search of 'breakfast near me' led us to this diner. Food was better than your average diner, and prices were extremely reasonable. The omelette was a tad overcooked but still pretty good. Everything else was great. Fast and friendly service. 2 downsides... First, the young man bussing the tables had his pants sagging. Underneath his buttocks. It was disconcerting to say the least, especially while eating. Second, after watching the same person bus a few tables and put new paper placemats down WITHOUT wiping the table down, I inspected my own table a little more thoroughly to find that my own placemat was stuck to the table with syrup. Sigh... This restaurant has the potential to be awesome with a few minor tweaks.

    I give this 4 stars. The atmosphere is welcoming and laid back. They have the yummiest fried fish. Desserts are great. Not all the dishes are 4 * but at least half are and the manager and staff make this an inviting place to eat.

    Checking out on Sunday

    Decided on a Sunday afternoon to check out farmer boys after hearing so many positive reviews. Walked in and pleasantly greeted and knew a few people who said they come here all the time. Husband ordered breakfast which is served all day long .. sausage and cheddar cheese omelette with home fries and choice of toast. I ordered BLT minus the at and requested extra crispy bacon with fries. Wow the bacon nice and thick and crispy. Polite and friendly waitress who came by to refill coffee and iced tea. We will be back

    Watery coffee set the stage for a breakfast that was not farm fresh. Pancakes - large and fluffy... but dry and tasteless Denver Omelet - thick skab of velveta like cheese product snd tiny thin sliced deli ham bits. Biscuit - dense doughy mass Hash Browns - brown but not crisp and mushy... the poor ketchup was more like a dessert sauce... waaay too sweet... the ingredients included both HFCS and corn syrup. Nice open floor plan with friendly staff... but wouldnot return for this food.

    Ingress & Egress could be better from Cuyahoga Falls Avenue- be careful making an illegal turn! The parking lot is always full, but don't let that fool you. We have always been seated right away when the lot is full. Each time we have gone, they place was packed, but it never felt rushed, dirty or loud. Interior is nicer than I thought! In my family, we like to split meals. My son & I split the bagel sandwich with ham & cheese. It isn't amazing, but worth $5.25! I eat half, plus a few of their hash browns, and I am full. We have only been here for breakfast so I am curious how the place delivers for lunch or dinner. FYI- the goodies in the pastry case are tempting. I wanted to bring home a coconut cream pie, but you can only buy them by the slice here. They said their other location sells whole pies. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, decent food.

    New customer, and must say it was delicious. Manager was quite nice, and server was helpful. And this was just a carry-out !

    Food was good, waitress was awful but worth it for the food. Farmer boy in akron is much better. Better service, and food!

    My fiancé got the all you eat fish and was able to try both kinds - he preferred the lemon pepper.

    Crave gets a lot right. The staff is warm and attentive, the kind that actually makes you feel…read moretaken care of, and the food delivers across the board. This is a solid downtown Akron spot. One minor gripe: the mac and cheese is a little one-note. It's not bad, it just doesn't surprise you. A little more depth -- sharper cheese, a hit of something acidic or smoky -- and it would be a standout instead of an afterthought.

    Had a big birthday dinner here for a friend - there were about 14 of us, and everything was…read moreperfect. Our service was amazing and the drinks and food came quickly - we didn't need anything ever (which is a remarkable feat for a table of that size!). Seriously kudos to the wait staff - best service I've had in years. Food is always great at Crave as well. We started with salads and the steak skewers which are jam packed with spice and flavor. My husband loved his smoked Gouda Mac and cheese with crispy chicken on top. He tried so hard to save some for leftovers but ended up not being able to. I had the salmon which was perfect medium and had a really good Asian sauce with it accompanied by rice and veggies which were also cooked to perfection. We were lucky to have a back room so we had a little more privacy which was nice but the restaurant was packed for a Saturday night so I'd recommend a reservation for sure. Another thing that was nice - $7 valet parking. Super convenient and cheap!
