Forage Public House

"What a gem! Will definitely go back here soon! Our serverJosh was a delight and very attentive. The food was great!"

"My boyfriend and I went on a sunday for my birthday. i got the vegan version of chicken and waffles and it was pretty good, but I wish there was some kind of sauce for the oyster mushrooms. My boyfriend got some chicken something and he LOVED it. We got drinks that were delicious and our server was wonderful."

"Delicious mushroom french fries with truffle oil as a starter and some shrimp tacos. Will definitely go back for a bigger meal."

"We had a chance to try out Forage Public House for dinner and the food was very good! We started with the French Fries, Tossed in Truffle & Parmesan Cheese (have have other choices also to have them tossed in.) For dinner we had the Chicken & Waffles, they were some of the BEST C & W I have had in a while. We also ordered the Ohio Beef Burger that was good too. The atmosphere inside was nice, there was a good size bar, and a couple tv's. It was a little dark over by our table so reading the menu was a bit hard, also the candle they have at the table was missing. There was also a nice size outdoor patio in the front, that has a nice view of the street. Overall we had a good dinner, the only complaint we had was how slow the service was. It was not a busy night at all, once we sat down it took a while for someone to come greet us, and once we were greeted it took a while to get water. We ordered something on the side with the appetizer that did not come with it. Once we got the dinner we asked for refills on water and some condiments to go with the food which also took a while to get for us."

"So I came into town to visit my family. We were searching for a restaurant to try and came across Forage Public House in Lakewood, Ohio. They have a great menu, and source local ingredients, so those prompted our online reservation, which was quick and easy. At the restaurant, we opted to eat outside because it was such a beautiful, sunny day, although there was available seating inside, as well as at the bar. They've very nice wine and beer lists, both of which we ordered from and enjoyed. As for the food, I first ordered the Bavarian Pretzel with cheddar fondue, Bertman beer mustard, and chives. It was freshly baked, chewy, had those big grains of salt, and really satisfied my pretzel craving. Next was a French Onion Soup, which looked too beautiful to eat, but was incredible. We also ordered the Public House and Baby Beet & Apple Salads, both of which were so crisp and refreshing! Also ordered was an off-menu special: Chicken breast with a cucumber-and-carrot-coleslaw with cilantro, which was bursting with flavor! And the Creekstone Farms Hanger Steak was mouthwateringly delicious! We finished with a Flourless Chocolate Torte and Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream: sooo decadent and chocolatey! And we had some coffees with almond-milk, per our request, which were warm, comforting, and much needed after our meals. I have to give a shout-out to our server Amber! She was so attentive, informed us of the off-menu specials, spoke to the sourcing of ingredients of specific menu items, made great menu suggestions, and took into consideration some of our party's dietary needs. It really made a positive impression."
