Ever wonder why it's called angel food cake? Traditionally made with egg whites, it's known for it's light, airy texture and heavenly name.

We grill ours and top it with Boston cream custard and strawberry Chambord sauce. Celebrate National Angel Food Cake Day with us this Saturday, 10/10 and enjoy it while it's still on our dessert menu!

A bonfire and an apple orchard walked into a bar....

SMOKED ORCHARD | Buffalo Trace. Apple Juice. Honey Simple Syrup. Dehydrated Apple. Smoked.

Bourbon-warm, honey-sweet, and it shows up under a dome of smoke. Yes, you’ll want to film it. Everyone does.

Fall’s here. The patio didn’t get the memo. 🍂

Warm evenings are on borrowed time, so spend them outside with a fall cocktail in hand and zero plans to go home early.

Sweater optional. Second drink recommended.

Fall in Akron and Cuyahoga Falls is packed this year, and we're right in the middle of it. Zoo nights, street fests, Oktoberfest steins, a Blossom show, and one very haunted Front Street. Wherever you're headed, make Crave the before or the after. Start the evening with a good meal or extend your night with us after.

Swipe to see some of our favorite upcoming events. And yes, we're opening on Sunday, November 1 for Sting 3.0 (a rare one for us).

Full fall lineups for both locations are on our website!
