We asked our readers to tell us their favorite things to do in the Empire, and you responded with amazing ideas-- some of our own old favorites, and some things new to us that we're excited to check out! We've be rolling out the winners one category a week-- Click HERE to see the categories we've already covered.
This week, we're looking at your Favorite Neighborhood Bars!
1. The Lockview
Located in the spot that was formerly the Lime Spider and Bilbo's Pub before that, the Lockview is a downtown restaurant that specializes in gourmet grilled cheese and one of the best craft beer selections in the area.
I wrote about the Lockview back when they hosted a Vegetarian Night. (Click HERE to see that post again.) Whether you're a carnivore or not, you're certain to find something there that will satisfy.All sandwiches are served with homemade coleslaw and goldfish crackers, but for a minimal upcharge you can enjoy fries or tots. I'd recommend going for the sweet potato fries.
Thanks again to everyone who voted! Check back next week as we reveal more of your favorites!
2. Highland Tavern

The Highland Tavern is a one of the newer establishments in the Highland Square neighborhood. They don't normally have food there, but every Thursday Sushi on a Roll offers great deals on sushi at the bar. They boast Happy Hour everyday, and Super Happy Hour on Friday-- it lasts until 9pm!
3. The Cashmere Cricket
The Cashmere Cricket claims to have the biggest selection of craft beers in the Akron Empire. With 130 different bottles and 20 rotating drafts, I'd say they hold that title or are at least close!

In May of this year they opened their "Whiskey Bar", where connoisseurs of fine spirits can enjoy a drink in a vintage prohibition-era inspired atmosphere.
The Cashmere Cricket is located in Cuyahoga Falls. Check out their website or follow them on Facebook for more info!
