I'm new to the Ellet area and drove by this little bakery. It's right across the street from Gio's…read moreon Canton Road. I decided to turn around and give it a shot. SO glad I did! There is Service with a smile and small area for seating.We went in thinking it was just a bakery and found out they also make candy items. Cookies, Cakes, Cheesecakes, Protein Balls, Chocolate items, Fudge Items, Buckeyes, etc. We got a fudge brownie, a german chocolate brownie, a blueberry and 2 double fudge donuts (way fresher than DD) , a slice of carrot cake and Large iced coffee for $17. They're food is more fresh than any of the 'chain' stores around and more affordable. This will be my new morning stop! And they sell trays of desserts for gatherings. Do yourself a favor and add this place to your list of snack shops!

I stopped at Sweet Mary's Bakery for the first time and had a great experience…read more It's a little shop with baked goods and coffee. Seating is limited because it is a small location but they had a few seats in the front window. The staff was friendly and answered all my questions about the Gluten free options and coffee. They have a separate display case for gluten free treats and also had some in the cold box.

Artisan used to be one of the best coffee shops in the region, but the quality of food and service…read morehas drastically declined in the last year. The interior vibes are the same; open, spacious, and clean. However, the food and most importantly, the staff, no longer maintain the quality that made me a regular in the first place. Artisan used to have amazing coffee and excellent food, but the coffee is no longer very good. I think this is due to the staff. The food has significantly declined in quality. The hollandaise on their breakfast sandwich is now a broken, greasy mess. The "sourdough" is generic white bread. What's even worse than the food is the staff. In the last two years, the staff has degenerated to an incompetent , bedraggled mess. The staff has never had to wear a uniform, but perhaps it's time for them to institute one. In my last several visits, I've seen grossly oversized clothes that have the staff looking like they just rolled out of bed. Hair is unkempt, not brushed, loose, and hanging down past their shoulders. A recipe for getting hair in my food. Furthermore, the staff is no longer smiling or friendly and can't answer basic questions about the menu. They seem confused about where they are and the service they provide. On top of all this, they maintain their strict breakfast timeframe. Why they have decided to stick to antiquated time limits for the food that is always available in their kitchen is beyond me. The barest minimum of market research would show how popular breakfast sandwiches are all day. What once was a vibrant, friendly coffee shop with great food, good coffee, and pleasant employees now feels like a dressed up McDonalds.

This was my first time stopping into Artisan Coffee as it is a bit of a dive for me, so I was happy…read moreto finally be in the area to give it a go! This place is a charmer for sure and has a vibe to it that is cozy. The space itself is larger than what I was expecting and it was nice that they offered additional parking across the street as their lot is small and gets full very quickly. The space also has a stage and lots of windows for natural light which I loved. The baristas were all very friendly and knowledgeable about the different drinks and what they offered, which was really nice. Unfortunately, I did not try any food, but their menu offers a wide range of breakfast and lunch options including sandwiches, soups, bakery and more. I reached for the cold brew and a friend got a lavander matcha lattee. The drinks were good, nothing out of this world but I was glad they offered additional cream, sugar, etc out in the open in case people decided they wanted to add anything to their drinks. They offer a wide range of drinks including some really interesting specialty drinks which all sound fun to try. Overall, Artisan Coffee is a cute, charming coffee shop that offers a wide variety of food and drink and I am sure you will find something you enjoy at this cafe. If I am ever in the area again, I would definitely consider coming back here to sit down rather than to-go.

They have a good selection of breads including loaves, focaccias and rolls. The pastries are very nice, with croissants, danishes, cookies and scones. There is also a cooler with ready to bake quiches and pizzas. Service is nice and casual, although the service area is compact but they keep things moving. I also appreciate there is a rack with half priced day old breads. When you have really high quality bread you can still enjoy it a day later. Quite a surprise to find such a nice bread bakery in a somewhat out of the way place. If you are in the area well worth a stop to enjoy some great baked goods and stock up.

So! This is the best bakery I've experienced outside of France. Wait, it is as good as any bakery…read morein the world, just has its own American feel. I moved back to the Akron area a couple years ago and love making the 20 minute trek to this fabulous place. First, the selection is incredible. Next, the quality is next level! The grains + flour + ingredients they use... and the resulting goodies. But somehow the place is unpretentious + fairly priced. Some of my favorite things so far: the buns (are you thinking "how good can buns be?" Well, you are going to find out), the oatmeal raisin bread (a dream, a balance of hearty + earthy + sweet... toasted MYGOD), the cheese stick (funky chewy bliss), and the dark chocolate spelt cookie. Can't wait to try everything else. Clapping + cheering for the bakers + proprietors, Amy

We made a note to come hungry next time, so we did! Yesterday, we went! We got sat right away and our waiter Gavin immediately approached us asking what we'd like to drink. We expressed we are first timers and what are they best known for on their menu? He gave us fabulous suggestions! He provided Excellent service, like truly excellent! You'd think we were at a five star restaurant! He even let us in on a little secret! Ask for a little side of vanilla ice cream to go with their most amazing sweet potato casserole! Minds were blown! I love trying new foods, so we definitely got to explore the menu and try delicious items! The rice in gravy, broccoli salad, and some of their seasonal specials! We LOVED it! We will definitely be back now that we know the restaurant we will always go to when we go to Hartville! I'm sure the rest of their staff is great, but I will definitely be asking for Gavin each and every time we go! (Btw, my better half has a lot of experience in restaurants and was asking about the culture there... Gavin had nothing but GREAT things to say and how much he truly loves working there - it shows! Thank you, Gavin for such a great dining experience!) My only regret is we had no idea that we'd love the experience so much that we'd want to write a review, and ate the food so fast, we never took pictures!

I have been here numerous times and I really haven't ever had anything that wasn't delicious. Some…read moreof my favorite dishes are the fried chicken breasts and the fried cod. Both are fresh and so good. With the entrees you get your choice of 3 sides. Those are always the hardest choices because there are so many to choose from. I almost always choose the salad because they have the best salad. The lettuce and carrots are chopped up small and the house made dressings are delicious. The other sides I like are the crinkle cut fries, home fries, jo jo potatoes, Amish noodles, pasta salad, and the hot rice sauce. The hot rice sauce is like nothing I've ever had before. The sauce is a little spicy and it has some rice in it it. Hard to describe but once I tried it, I was hooked. I also have never seen it at any other restaurant. Their pies are delicious. I always get the cherry crumb or the dutch apple pie which are really good. On my last trip we tried the butterscotch pie and that was absolutely delicious. This place gets packed. If you come when they open, there is usually a long line to get in. I recommend coming a little after they seat the line. The restaurant itself is huge and airy. Service is always great and friendly. And they have Coke Zero on tap which is always a plus in my book.
