    Corned Beef Hash

    Sunday Brunch at Good Company is the move! The vibes here are chill and perfect for starting your day with a tasty meal with friends! The service is quick and incredibly friendly! These wings are the real deal! They're the perfect combo of sweet & savory, packed with irresistible flavors! The sweet pretzel is ideal for sharing with the table and is great by itself or with the cream cheese or jam! The hash is spot on! Go give Good Company a try soon!

    The menu has such an eclectic variety of choices. I cannot wait to go back and try something new. We had the wings were delicious, crispy and falls off the bone. We ordered plain fries but next time we are getting something on them. You can put any type of rub or sauce on them. The atmosphere has a cool vibe, it's not very roomy, I will call It cosy. Our server was sweet and attentive. I would recommend for sure, and like I mentioned I can't wait to try again.

    We loved our dinner at Good Company. We sat at the bar and had great service from the bartender. The Good One burger was so good and the 72 hour wings literally fell off the bone. Best wings we've had, with great sauces to match! The garlic pecorino sauce is a must try. It was also live jazz night, which was really fun!

    This is one of the better meals I've had in Akron this year. Cocktails were excellent craft quality, the flash fried celery root was *amazing* and the smash burger and fries were out of this world... we were out for a late lunch on a Sat afternoon and got in early but - after meeting some cool people over drinks and leaving around 7 - it was packed!! So be prepared! (Note they're not open for lunch we got in around opening time). We will be back very soon - great experience! Oh and almost forgot!! The WINGS!!! Best in Northeast Ohio!!! Don't miss out on them!! 72-hour marinade and prep - they drop off the bone!! From their website: "We marinate our chicken wings in dry spices for two days. On the third day, we slow braise them. Then we fry them to order and toss them in one of our house sauces or dry spice blends"

    We stopped on a Tuesday night for dinner. They have a limited number of IPAs on tap but had Fat Head's Head Hunter in cans which was fine. The Spicy BBQ dry rub wings were very good. Make sure to get a side of ranch to help with the heat if you are sensitive to spicy wings. They were crispy and flavorful. The fries were amazing. Unbelievably good! Crispy and perfectly salted. Service was fairly good and ambiance good. I won't hesitate to come back.

    Fried Chicken skins

    Small Spot, Big Bites - Good Company in Akron is a Flavor Powerhouse Tucked away in Akron, Ohio, there's a little place making some big flavor noise--Good Company. Don't let the cozy, modern space fool you--this isn't your average neighborhood restaurant. It's a bold, flavor-forward experience served up in an unpretentious atmosphere that feels like your favorite hoodie: familiar, comfortable, and unexpectedly stylish. We stopped in with hungry appetites and open minds, and Good Company delivered with a menu that hits hard right out of the gate. Fried Chicken Skins - A Crispy Revelation Yes, you read that right. Not chicken. Chicken skins. These golden, crispy bites are the culinary equivalent of finding hidden treasure--salty, savory, perfectly seasoned crunch with just enough chew to remind you it's real. Think pork rinds leveled up by a chef with street smarts and a Southern soul. One bite in and we knew: this place doesn't play it safe, and we're here for it. Bourbon Molasses Wings - Sweet, Smoky, Sticky Perfection Wings are a crowded game, but Good Company has found a way to stand out. Their bourbon molasses wings come lacquered in a sweet-and-smoky glaze that clings to each wing like a slow dance partner--seductive, a little messy, and totally worth it. The bourbon brings a warm depth, while the molasses adds that signature stick-to-your-lips richness. Napkins are essential. Regrets are nonexistent. The Good One Burger - A Patty Worth Praising Aptly named, The Good One burger doesn't try to reinvent the wheel--it just makes it roll smoother and taste better. Juicy, perfectly cooked beef piled with the right combo of melty cheese, crisp pickles, fresh lettuce, and a house sauce that whispers sweet nothings to your tastebuds. It's the kind of burger that makes you pause mid-bite and say, "Damn, that's good." (Spoiler: we did.) Small Place, Big Personality Good Company isn't flashy. It's not trying to be the "it" place in Akron. It's just confidently doing its own thing--and doing it very well. The vibe is chill, the staff is friendly without being fake, and the food speaks louder than any Instagram filter ever could. This isn't just a restaurant--it's a reminder that flavor, creativity, and a little culinary courage can turn a small joint into a must-visit destination. So if you find yourself in Akron with a craving for something crave-worthy, do yourself a favor: pull up a seat at Good Company. And come hungry--this little spot plays with big flavors and doesn't hold back. Take the Trip Tip: Go with friends, order a little bit of everything, and don't be afraid to get your hands dirty. Good food tastes better in good company... and at Good Company.

    Snickerdoodle Milkshake
    Elizabeth G.

    This place was so yummy, but a few things made it less than perfect. I've decided to round up my rating anyway. I'm not a huge burger person, but their burger was delicious! Except it did taste mostly of pickles. I like pickles, but It didn't leave room for the flavor of the patties or cheese. And the fries seemed old? Overcooked? A lot looked saturated with oil, but they were still crispy. So I'm not sure what was going on there. I didn't get to snag a picture of the wings, they were amazing! Great flavor throughout. We got the Thai chili wings. While the flavor was great, there wasn't really any spice to them. Which I thought was weird considering how spicy Thai chili's are. The milkshake was absolutely delicious and I finished the whole thing! Our server was very kind, and the atmosphere in this place is great. It's so laidback. And they had nice single-person restrooms. All in all, it was a nice weekday dinner. Overall rating: 4.5/5 stars

    Great food, drinks and live music after 7pm, it is the place to head to on a Friday or Saturday evening. Very cozy with and friendly staff. Don't forget to end your meal, like my husband and I did, with one of their delicious creamy panna cotta.

    Wings

    Really like this place because it's appropriate for multiple occasions: casual outing, dates, girls night, party night out, peaceful dinner outside in the patio, solo dates, live music vibes, etc. I've had their wings several times and they never disappoint. The Vegan Oliver, however, was a letdown I'm not sure what the jerky bacon slices were made of but it was very bland. Not a very flavorful sandwich. Either way, our waiter was very kind and we had a great time regardless.

    Paper thin celery root

    What a deceiving name... Came in from out of town...found this place on google, seemed to have a decent amount of vegan options.... Got there, stood at the host station several minutes without the slightest acknowledgement. Started with an order of fried celery root...pretty bad, $13 for basically a basket of deep fried, super oily batter. Celery root was sliced paper thin, could barely find it or taste it. Came with no dipping sauce. I got a small harvest grain salad, decent. Friend got a smash burger...paper thin, flavorless and overcooked. Very disappointed. Greatly decorated bathroom

    Panna Cotta
    Hannah A.

    I love a good restaurant with a cute interior! The inside is such a vibe. We sat outside on the patio & I don't think I can say enough amazing things about our server Jeff. He was attentive in all the right ways & even comped our panna cotta just because he was so freaking nice. If you stop by you HAVE to order the chicken wings. My mom doesn't like chicken wings at all and when I tell you we were speechless! Just go visit if you haven't already because you're really missing out

    The entrance to Good Co.

    Okay, this place is amazing, bathrooms, the service, to the food. The wings are the best wings I've had in a long time. I started with the dill potato salad and chicken skins with the pickled celery, the pickled celery I didn't waste one chunk, then I went with the pecorino garlic wings, amazing! The 72 hour stance, it shows, the wing meat falls of the bone, and you can tell something's different cause the wing bone is a dark grey, and no pink what so ever, I'm just saying these wings are different and they have to be the best in the city. Then I went with "the good one" it's a smash burger just full of flavors, I used my fork to scoop all the extras up that fell off it was so good. Now it was a Sunday so they have brunch but I just ordered of the regular menus, because they are closed in Mondays and don't open till 4pm Tuesday-Saturday, I sat at the bar and had water and coffee, and the coffee is hot a fresh. I was in this building years ago when it was something else. All I can say is, when bathrooms are nice and clean, that tells me this place is doing something right. Place was pretty busy for a Sunday, it doesn't surprise me... the food is very good. And I stand by what I say, best wings in the city. I will definitely be back! And they had the browns game on at the bar with a huge screen tv. So bonus.

    Guinness Onion Dip
    Liz P.

    Great food and drinks just West of the heart of downtown Akron! Good variety on the food menu, including vegetarian/vegan options. I got the Vegan Oliver- a vegan smash burger - with a side of dill pickled potato salad. It was delicious! Also got the Blood Orange Old Fashioned which was really good too! My friend had the full size Kale Caesar Salad with chicken. We also had the Guinness Onion Dip--a must try if you visit! The service was fantastic! We went on a Monday evening. It was steady business with both take out orders and in house diners. Everything came out quickly and at the right temperature. The server was very attentive! The restaurant has a cool and casual vibe. There was a lot of diversity in terms of the clientele so the vibe appeals to a lot of people! The parking lot (on the left side of the restaurant) is on the small side, so carpool if you have a group. There is a small patio too! Highly recommend!

What a treat after a paddle at Nimisila Reservoir. I live about 35 minutes from them, but might make the trip back just for the ice cream. Waylon's must know how to hire pleasant staff. Saw another review complimenting staff demeanor and it was true today as well. The young lady was so pleasant. Can't wait to work my way through the huge buckeye brownie that I brought home for tomorrow. It's huge, so hopefully the boys will help. The store is in a strip mall, so it's fairly unassuming. But it's bright, clean and fun inside. Best wishes to this business!

My husband and kids loved it. It tasted like real ice cream and tasted like authentic food not fake. Grant it I did not read the ingredients. I'd choose this again next.

    Strickland's Ice Cream - A Timeless Classic with Rotating Favorites…read more Strickland's Ice Cream is a local gem that delivers a nostalgic, creamy experience every time. Since 1936, Strickland's has stayed true to its roots, using the same type of old-fashioned batch freezers that give their ice cream its famously smooth texture. There's something comforting about knowing the process hasn't changed in nearly a century. The locations offer the two beloved mainstay flavors--rich chocolate and classic vanilla--but where it really shines is in its rotating weekly flavors. From fresh peach in the summer to fun options like birthday cake, there's always something new to try. You can check out the weekly flavor schedule online or on their Facebook page, which is especially handy if you have a favorite you don't want to miss. In addition to their signature ice cream, Strickland's also serves up milkshakes that are just as thick and satisfying. Whether you're a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, it's easy to see why Strickland's has remained a favorite for generations. Stop by, grab a cone, and enjoy a taste of Ohio tradition.
