If you need a quick pick me up, Susy's Soup and Mixed Greens have soup, salads and sandwiches that are better than your average food court food and reasonably priced. Caribou Coffee not only offers the best cup of coffee (after that heavenly french press!) but also has decent snacks. Caribou give you a 10% discount with a pass or movie ticket as a bonus.
The Power Hour at Morton's is one of the best Happy Hours in Cleveland. Sunday through Friday from when they open until 6:30pm and 9pm to close you can sample some excellent appetizers for a steal. The four petite filet sandwiches for only $7 are legendary.
This year there are excellent choices within easy walking distance. I'm thrilled that Noodlecat is located just a quick walk down Euclid Ave. Their famous Happy Hour is from 3-7pm Monday through Saturday and practically ALL DAY Sunday (from 11am to 11pm!) This is a Must Do for anyone looking for some awesome slurping and the best damn buns in town. My favorites noodles are the Takahachi, Roscoe's Fried Chicken and Spicy Octopus. Some of the best buns are the BBQ Ohio Pork, Chicken Yakitori, Tsukemono Pickle and of course the Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana. And I'm in love with the Super Salad!
Pura Vida is another new hot spot near Noodlecat. They offer some great eats including vegetarian and vegan dishes. The desserts are tasty works of art. On Wednesday 3/28 after 4pm they have a special Passport Express featuring food from Piedmont Italy. 3 courses with beverage pairing for only $30! Plus they offer 15% off your dinner bill with a movie stub or pass.
A little further walk across Public Square is the Marriott at Key Tower. It has Jake's Lounge and David's Restaurant. Both are a tasty place for a cocktail and a snack or meal. Check out this cool spot in the lobby:
