The 10 Best Food & Drink in Ohio, United States
If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

Had a lovely Friday night out with friends from out of town. We decided to bring them to the brewery- so glad we made this our choice! We were seated in the front of the Pub near the bar. Our waitress offered great choices from our beverages to our dinners. I had a glass of the Glass Hopper and a glass of the Dry Hop Pilsner. For Dinner, I had the Walleye special with Fries and Coleslaw and my husband had the Ghost Burger with the homemade potato chips. We couldn’t be more pleased with the choice of our meals and exceptional service from your waitress Melissa .... she definitely made it so enjoyable. We look forward to returning and will definitely request Melissa she was so professional.
2. Athens Farmers Market

I started going to the Athens Farmers Market decades ago when it brought people together on the old airport runway, now long-gone under tennis courts and a skateboard park. Now the largest year-round farmer's market in the state is about to move again. But what will always be a constant is the opportunity to access healthy local foods and the rich local community of vendors and customers. It is a meeting place, a crossroads for the diverse city and county, university and farmer, student and older adult communities to come together. So bring a bag for carrying home vegetables, local honey, fantastic bread and funky Avalanche pizza creations, herbs, soap, and naturally some local tortilla chips and popcorn.

What a Great brewery Great Lakes is inCleveland. For three decades the brewery has occupied a beautiful historical grain & feed factory on Market Street. If you like delicious craft beer and history you must stop in. Parking was easy and we started out in the gift shop which was fun. After getting some cool Great Lakes merch we stopped into their famous pub. Wow the antique mahogany bar was gorgeous and well worn. We enjoyed delicious fresh Christmas Ales and appreciated all the friendly staff (who by the way own the company!). I took a walk through the industrial dining room, basement pub, and bar fascinated by the amazing Cleveland history on their walls. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and next time will take the Friday brewery tour! Cheers Great Lakes Brewery.

Located in Madison, Ohio about an hour east of Cleveland, Debonne Vineyards is now the largest estate winery in Ohio, boasting over 175 acres of vines. Debonne Vineyards central location in the Grand River Valley wine region benefits from a climate moderated by the thermal effects of eastern Lake Erie.

While having a glass of wine (I chose Concord and my husband selected Blackberry), we relaxed at a table in the grass while people-watching and water-gazing. The wines were so delicious, we each had a second glass. They were a perfect midday adult treat for us before exploring more of Small Bass Island!

We love this hidden gem and were extremely impressed with the first class treatment we received from the friendly staff, to the pristine rooms, the complimentary beverages and the delicious continental breakfast added to the fabulous experience. We strolled the stunning grounds, indulged in some fabulous food and delicious wine at both the Crush House and Bistro, played bocce and met some wonderful people throughout our visit and especially while relaxing outdoors by an evening fire. I cannot rave enough about our stay at Gervasi Vineyards! This place is a class act all the way! ????????❤️
