I've explored some excellent food spots in my ~10 years on this side of the state. Greater Toledo is filled with excellent local chains, along with family owned spots that are sure to satisfy.

A BG staple! Open late, perfect for delicious bites on those late nights ;)
Mr. Spots - Bowling Green, OH
Â
Get the buffalo chicken meatball appetizer…trust me!
5th Street Pub
Â
Excellent Mexican food, another BG classic.
El Zarape Restaurant
Â
A popular Mediterranean lunch spot. Their hummus is some of my favorite.
Zingo's Mediterranean
Â
Pan-Asian fusion serving up bowls, tacos, and bubble tea.
Balance Pan-Asian Grille
Â
Stuffed breadsticks…there's nothing else that needs to be said.
Campus Pollyeyes
Â
A great enclosed patio space, with weekly food and drink specials. An excellent selection of beer and cocktails too.
Swig Restaurant
Â
A local, hidden gem, serving up amazing Thai food.
Bangkok Kitchen
Â
Seasonally curated menus for the freshest dinners. A smaller more intimate restaurant with an more sophiscated evening out vibe, without being stuff.
Barr's Public House - Maumee, OH
Â
The BEST sushi in the greater Toledo area HANDS DOWN! This super intimate, 16 seat restaurant is serving up the freshest sushi, along with ala carte grilled items such as ribeye, scallops and bacon wrapped green beans.
Kengo Sushi & Yakitori
Â
This coffee shop, brewery combo is serving up some killer drinks. With rotating drafts brewed in house, craft cocktails, and specialty coffees and teas, there's something for everyone. Their iced matcha latte with raspberry cold foam is one of my fav...
Juniper Brewing Company
Â
A fave neighborhood spot! Sit inside or on the patio, kick back and enjoy some local brews!
Brewing Green
Â
A local chain serving up small plate, Mediterranean sharables. There's not a bad thing on the menu!
Poco Piatti (Perrysburg, OH)
Â
Their toasted sandwiches are top notch. Their full size is an economical 16"! Great for large parties. Their pizza is also great, with their XL size able to feed a crowd as well.
Mancino's Pizza & Grinders
Â
A local brewery. Loosely football themed, they offer a wide variety of beer and mixed drinks, along with a yummy food selection. The Nashville hot chicken sandwich is my go to.
Inside the Five Brewing Co.
Nature
The best outdoor spots in the area.Â

An amazing state park, right on lake Erie, with hiking trails, campgrounds and a swimming beach.

An expansive nature preserve, with beautiful trails, scenic ponds and bridges, and areas to ride horses and cross country ski.
Oak Openings Preserve Metropark - Metroparks Toledo

The Ribbon is the main attraction. This urban park acts as an outdoor ice skating rink in the winter, and a roller rink in the summer.
