My husband and I went tonight and had the greatest time. So inexpensive to play a few games and have a few drinks. The owners are hilarious and fun to talk to. Not a fancy establishment, but homey and comfortable. Will definitely be back.

Rocky River Public Library

Reviewed By patpetetravel - Rocky River, Ohio

I take my grandsons here for story hour and playtime in the children's section. That's where the trains come in - a super train platform with lots and lots of building tracks and bridge pieces.
I've attended evening adult events with a friend.
I go by myself to catch up on magazines and enjoy quiet time perusing the stacks.
Friendly staff and an elevator!

Great Northern Mall

Great Northern Mall near Cleveland hosts shopping, Macy's and JCPenney department stores, Dick's Sporting Goods store, and over 120 more shops and restaurants. The mall is twelve miles southwest of Cleveland on I-480. Find convenient family parking near the H&M and Dillard's mall entrances.

The GNM gets super busy this time of year, and Starbucks' BOGO sale resulted in some congestion, but it wasn't insurmountable. The decision to place a ballet performance right in front of the Dick's store was questionable, however. We had to wade through and in front of parents trying to watch their kids perform and it seemed dangerous because we weren't sure we wouldn't get smacked in the face by a dancer! Just a bad logistics decision, especially considering that there were plenty of much better staging options.

But the store selection is good and staff was pleasantly surprising.

Memphis Kiddie Park

Reviewed By Russ S - Cleveland, Ohio

This is a great place for little kids, I would say ideal for 1 1/2 - 6 years old, you need to know your child. Very clean park on recent Saturday visit. Rides were well maintained with excellent paint jobs (This is definitely an improvement over several years ago). Several others had commented that Kiddie Park is in a 'horrible' area, this is totally untrue. It is bordered by an industrial area, a Metropark, and on the border of Brooklyn-a middle income neighborhood. It is over a half mile from what might be considered a 'so-so' area, but nothing like you would experience in the poor areas of Cleveland. Even on a busy day we didn't have to wait more than a couple of ride rotations for our turn. I would recommend an adult ride the roller coaster with anyone under 4 as there is a bit of jerking and lurching and you will want to cushion their head from hitting the back of the seat or handle bar. A little pricey, but where else other than a mega park can you get this experience near Cleveland.

Hop on a bicycle, lace up your running shoes or take your time strolling through any part of this scenic 60-mile long string of parks and garden areas.

There are multiple reservations/nature centers that make up the 'Emerald Necklace'. Each one is in a unique setting. It is truly a gem of Ohio- other states aren't as fortunate to have anything like this. If you have free time, I really recommend getting involved with one of their volunteer programs- great for high school students and adults of all ages.

AMC Westwood Town Center 6

Reviewed By Angie_Ohio - Aurora, Ohio

Love this theater for the reclining seats. I did notice something on this visit. The buttons for adjusting the seats are on the inside of the seat arm. If you have wider hips, your hips can trigger the button. Lifting the middle arm between me and my date helped.

The theater is very busy with very little customer service about. When you know what you are doing and just go to see a movie, it makes for a much nicer experience.

I would say that it is one of the best theaters in the Cleveland area.

Lake Erie Nature & Science Center

Reviewed By Leigh M - Ballarat, Australia

Great for children to see tortoises, rabbits, fish and birds. Their was also a fox, a few snakes and frogs. The birds were in small and old cages but was told most couldn't fly or were being rehabilitated to be released at a later date.

Many programs exist for scouting groups, children's camps or family learning centre but not really geared to the passing tourist. This recreation is free so if you want to fill in an hour or practise your photographic techniques you won't be disappointed. Just don't expect a mini zoo.

If you are looking for bird feeders or a variety of bird seeds then their little shop is sure to have what you are looking for. If it is advice you are after then the lady that runs it is extremely knowledgable.

Rocky River Reservation

Reviewed By Ab42187 - West Carrollton, Ohio

Growing up in the Cleveland area, I had never been here until last summer when we went for a hike with my in-laws. My kids absolutely have a blast walking the main path and exploring everything around them. This year we didn't see many animals other then bird, but last year we saw tons of deer. The main path itself is very clear and well maintained. By far my kids love the nature center the most. The tree play area they have is amazing. There are so many wonderful details and my kids have a blast playing on it. It's also great to see the turtles and fish they have in the tanks. We always seem to get lucky and the turtles seem to be out swimming every time we are there. This is a great little area to explore when you are in the area.
