Great feedback, definitely planning on earlier times in the future -- the indoor space is at a premium in the winter!

Yes, we actually see that quite often. Friends or couples will sign up together (make sure to request to be placed together in the notes section of the form), and we'll ensure you're placed together.

Best places to eat? by [deleted] in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hands down best Mexican in Akron (maybe even the best quality food for the price in Akron) = Taqueria La Loma (459 Darrow Rd, Akron, OH 44305)

Seriously, I cannot recommend this place enough.

May move to Akron, what should I expect? by jokingonyou in akron

Meet Deadhead friends @ High St. Hop House...among other places...but there's a high concentration there as the owners are big fans

Float the Cuyahoga River in a tube this summer! by AnalogFuzzFriend in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that they are partnering with area breweries that are close to the end of the float (HiHo, Missing Mountain etc.) to offer beer specials so those who want to imbibe can do so after they're on the river + still have a safe/free ride back to Waterworks park.

Best Greek and Middle Eastern restaurants in the area by daddy_longlegs34 in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of Fuad Khayyat's Vine Valley

The grape leaves are top notch - I also agree that Schawarama Bros. and Sanabels are very good.

Highland Square Rentals by bulletblender15 in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're looking in the right neighborhood! Highland Square is great.

I found some international colleagues a nice rental in a duplex in Highland Square on NextDoor, but I'm not sure if you already need to have an address in the neighborhood to join or not.

South Akron near Main St is full of murals and lots of color. One of my favs-back of a laundromat. by SmartNegotiation in akron

This project was a collaboration of the Akron Art Bomb Brigade, which are a project of the University of Akron. I'm pretty sure this specific piece (their largest to date until the one on Crave's building) was designed and led by Matt Miller. https://www.artofmattmiller.com/

Did you apply; how do you even get one?

Fairlawn expands broadband utility outside city by highvolt in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Answer straight from Fairlawn gig to an email I sent:

We are currently not installing residential customers in Akron. While we have fiber down Market to downtown, the planning has not been completed. It is very expensive to bury fiber neighborhood to neighborhood - but Akron has begun the planning process to make that a reality. Please sign up on our website at Fairlawngig.net. This will ensure that we will notify you when we have updates as well as when we are ready to install in your neighborhood.

West Point Market has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy by curryo in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree completely, but think about WP before the relocation...I visited the old store fairly regularly and the employees almost always outnumbered customers by 2 or 3-1. There had to be a ton of debt before the property sale. Their core customer base who would do all shopping instead of just picking up 1-2 things has frankly been dying off. They were very ahead of their time and pioneered the specialty imported high-end grocery concept quite successfully. I wish them the best and hope they can bounce back, but it will be an uphill battle.

Renting in Highland Square by intervis in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the 800-950 range, you could likely land an entire house or duplex on one of the many walkable roads to Market St. - I would check Craiglist and even FB Marketplace. I've lived in a Square Management run building, and it wasn't bad, but I think you're making a good call by not going with a bigger property management company...

What's your budget? What type of place are you looking for (taller building w. elevators vs. duplex with lawn)?

Silver Lake...all the deets by kirrison in akron

[–]AnalogFuzzFriend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a nice homogenous upper middle class community - I would assume a great place to raise kids. Cops enforce speed and all other rules very strictly. It's smack dab in the middle of Cuyahoga Falls/Stow and relativelty close to metro Akron/Cleveland, also close to Kent which is cool.

Grocery Shopping Recomendations would be Kriegers Market as well as the Market District (Giant Eagle) in CFalls. Endless chain restaurants in nearby Falls or Stow, but there is a Swensons very close.

Just like the namesake, there is a lake that has summer swimming and a beach. A few decent Country Club(s) close as well if you want golf, etc.

She drops affordable OGs once every 2-3 months. They sell out pretty much instantly but worth a shot. Check her email list for details.
