Old and New: Crafty Steere Brings Akron Classics Downtown
Like its Fairlawn and Tallmadge locations, Crafty Steere’s new downtown Akron location preserves food items Akron residents know and love. In addition to being a market, find a restaurant and bar with games when it opens in early 2027, according to its Facebook page. It’s located in the former O’Neil’s Department Store building. “I had an affinity for trying to restore some of the old glory,” says founder and owner Brian Steere. “My realization was [the downtown area] just needed more business.” The market features classic favorites that launched Crafty Steere — items like Our Bar, a rich, creamy cheese spread featuring cheddar and horseradish, and Killer Brownies, triple-layer brownies with fudge and caramel, topped with walnuts, both based on West Point Market original recipes. Also shop Pandora’s Cupcakes, and enjoy deli sandwiches and a bar with 10 beers on tap and cocktails. Stop by the restaurant for a 1/2-pound cheeseburger featuring high-quality beef from Copley’s J. Parker Cattle Co. or the house-made Johnny Romano chicken fingers. Overlooking Lock 3 Park, the upstairs area has rentable event space. Crafty Steere offers a new downtown destination for artisanal shopping and dining while uplifting Akron’s rich past.

What's the Hop Shop? Read the deets about this incoming Akron spot
Happy Friday, one and all. It's time for another edition of Bites for Akronites. As usual, I have some Akron food info to share. ● West Point Market is no more, but the "West Point Market Cookbook," originally published in 2008, has been reprinted by the University of Akron Press after the cookbook was out of print for more than a decade. The reprint includes an author's note and signature by Russ Vernon. The nostalgic book features a treasure trove of recipes originally created and prepared by West Point Market staff. That includes, of course, a recipe for the store's original Killer Brownies. Its eight ingredients include a package of chocolate brownie or chocolate cake mix and chocolate chips. (West Point Market used Belgian chocolate chips.) The cookbook features recipes for breakfast, breads and sandwiches, appetizers, soups, salads, pasta, fruits and vegetables, seafood, poultry, meats and desserts. To purchase this keepsake, which costs $40, visit Crafty Steere locations in Montrose or Tallmadge. ● Akron Honey and its new neighbor, Here We Go! Coffee , announce a Lattes & Waffles pop-up party from 9 a.m. to noon on Halloween. Akron Honey will make the gluten-free cornbread waffles, and Here We Go!

Down by the river in Cleveland, Ohio, a plain brick building on a quiet stretch of road hides a door that most people would walk right past. Behind it sits a room full of ship-themed touches, a pinball machine, dart boards, a tiny bowling game, and a jukebox that has outlasted plenty of trends.
