    Panko Crusted Chicken Sandwich
    Alan S.

    Stopped here recently and had the chicken sandwich which comes with fries. It came on toasted bread but could have used mayonnaise or another condiment to offset the dryness. Chicken and fries were good but will try something different next time. Service was good and ambiance fair.

    Cheddar apple and bacon grilled cheese

    Great spot in Akron. Very homey feeling with great classic but different grilled cheese choices. There was other stuff on the menu but I was only focused on the grilled cheeses. Tons of choices. Super good. Great service and Bob Ross on the tv ;). Can't be beat.

    I discovered the The Lockview when I asked ChatGPT to suggest a restaurant in Akron, Ohio that Anthony Bourdain would visit. It didn't miss a beat. their food portions are perfect, come hungry. The vibe felt at home. The staff is awesome and friendly. We got seated quick. I will definitely come back. also had the tater tots.

    Cozy a little hip artsy vibe. Waitresses were fast friendly and polite. Drinks were good food was tasty and great stop after the show. Would recommend if you are at the Akron civic center for anything or hanging in the area.

    Mac & Cheese Bites

    YUM! I was in town for the day and decided to try this place out! A great choice on my part because it was so good! When we first arrived, we got sat right away without a wait, which was awesome as it was fairly busy, but still quiet and welcoming! The Lockview offers MANY different grilled cheese sandwiches on their menu it was so hard to choose! To start we got the mac n cheese bites, which came out hot and ready for us to eat! It was the perfect app to munch on while we decided which sandwich to choose! We decided on the pesto one and the artichoke one to try (& split) and they were both filled with so much flavor! The bread was the perfect amount of crispy too! All sandwiches were served with goldfish crackers, or you could upgrade to fries, tater tots, etc! - I stuck with the goldfish because I also got a big bowl of tomato soup to dip my sandwiches in! (which of course was delicious) If i'm ever in town again I will be sure to come back and try more of those yummy sandwiches! I definitely recommend giving them a try!

    #2 with sweet potato fries
    Katie H.

    Perfect spot for a low key dinner! We went here before seeing a show at Akron Civic (it is literally right across the street) and were pleased with the experience. They have a variety of grilled cheeses (the main part of their menu) as well as some other sandwiches and appetizers. I got the #8 (goat cheese, roasted red pepper, and spinach on Tuscan herb bread) and my companion got the #2 (essentially a pepperoni pizza grilled cheese). We both upgraded from the goldfish crackers - hand cut fries for me and sweet potato fries for her - and had no regrets! Everything was tasty and very reasonably priced, and the service was good too. We will be back for sure. Thanks, Lockview!

    Very limited food menu. I was left feeling like I had a hard time finding something to eat. Customer service was great though

    A hip environment for an overpriced yet tasty meal. Recommended if you're feeling lazy to cook up some killer grilled cheese yourself

The place was smaller than I expected because I assumed it was a market due to the website haha but after learning more about how they get their meat from a local farm, I understood better. Was very pretty and modern inside with a twist of old fashioned decorative items like mason jar/wooden wheel chandeliers. Drinks came out fast, I got the banana old fashioned which was good. Not much banana flavor though but there was a subtle banana hint, so if you like an old fashioned on the sweeter side, I'd say you'd enjoy this cocktail. The food was good, we started with the soup of the day with was a DELICIOUS bacon Mac n cheese soup served with two pieces of naan (the naan was meh but overall good pairing with the soup). My partner had a chicken sandwich which he enjoyed even though he said it was pretty salty. I was very pleased with my T.F.R smash burger. But my favorite part of everything we ate were the fries! The FRIES! They were fried to crispy perfection and the batter was so fluffy and delish. They were very nicely seasoned and surprisingly had bits of garlic pieces throughout that you can eat or set aside.

Like other reviews, the interior needs help! Badly! But the amazing friendliness from the server and the manager, the great large portions and yummy foods can almost make you overlook it. They are very accommodating. I'm a type one diabetic and eat keto, and they gladly took the bread off of my corned beef sandwich and put it on a bed of lettuce instead. The corn beef can definitely give Cleveland Slymans a run for their money. My husband raved about their fries that were perfectly cooked, seasoned and crispy. For two people with tip it it was almost $60. But the portions were so huge. I've never had such a large serving of coleslaw. It was amazing because I love, Love,Love love, coleslaw, and up here in Cleveland we get tiny little 2 ounce plastic things that are just an embarrassment. Our meal was lunch and dinner rolled into one and we weren't even hungry later in the day at all!
