Algebra Tea House

As the 2016 Republican National Convention is rapidly approaching, your friends at Rascal House have taken it upon ourselves to help all the visitors on their way to the CLE plan what they’ll do in their downtime. As a Cleveland born and grown company, we know our way around the city and most importantly, we’ve got you covered. Knowing that Cleveland is packed with character and culture, here are 5 little neighborhoods you’ve just got to see.

On the East side of Cleveland, you’ll find Uptown, loaded with world-class museums and tons of entertainment, including The Corner Alley, a classy new bowling alley located on the corner of Euclid and Ford. Uptown is quickly becoming Cleveland’s newest arts and entertainment district, complete with the renown Cleveland Institute of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art, both located right on Euclid Avenue. Learn more about Uptown here.

Located right next to Uptown/University Circle, Cleveland’s Little Italy is definitely worth the trip. Whether you’re looking for an authentic Lasagna dinner or a dreamy Cannoli, you’ll find it all in Little Italy. If you’re not crazy for pasta, Algebra Tea House and Rising Star Coffee are definitely good enough reason to visit. Find more info here.

Take a trip to the West side of Cleveland and visit Ohio City. You’ll walk right into a local dream, complete with the West Side Market, where you’ll find 100 vendors selling exquisite artisan foods and goods, and famous craft breweries including the local Great Lakes Brewing Co.!

Also on the West side, you’ll find one of Cleveland’s oldest communities.
