Swinging Door

Have I mentioned that I love dive bars?? Well this is one you should stop into.  Ask for John, he is a great bartender and will keep ya laughing all night long.  It's kind of hidden so keep a watchful eye out as soon as ya hit Center Ridge intersection.

I have to dock a star for the removal of the bowling machine. Boooo. While that may have flown the coop, I'm still coming back for the wings.

A Rocky River institution, The Door has survived the corporate take over of Center Ridge Road. It remains a dive bar even under different ownership.

I remember sneaking inside as a kid and, for some reason, I was convinced the floor was made of gravel and, who knows, in the nineties it may have been. Today you can expect a regular floor, darts, cheap pitchers, hot bar nuts and, swoon, a vintage bar bowling machine that consumed an entire summer of my life in 2007.

I will never tire of walking to this place when visiting my parents on Ohio. Unless I sober up but thats not happening soon.
