Great Places to Eat...Drink...and...Have Fun
Food scene
Lasalle Market & Deli - (Canton, walking distance) Great for taking breakfast to go or hanging out and lounging with the locals (inside or outside). If you are looking for something quick on the weekend this is not your joint unless you are picking up…La Salle is a hang out type spot (not fast food). Weekends are super busy especially in the nice weather.

Toasted Oat- (Canton, drive to 2 miles) Creative scrambled egg bowls that can either be guilty pleasure or super healthy, smaller space so it can get crowded…they have started doing outdoor seating as well.

(Avon, 5 mile+ drive) Great lunch spot if you have a little time to kill. This place can be casual to fancy depending on your mode. I love to get a tucson salad, nice glass of wine and chow down on their famous bread, olive oil & roasted whole garlic. The outdoor seating is great too when the weather is warm.

Deep Water Seafood- (Avon, 5+ miles) No frills, half the staff has an attitude but the food is very fresh and great! Mostly a place you would order seafood to go or grab pre-made dishes to go..but this place might be the best kept secret around if you are a seafood lover. The asian tuna tacos are on point….highly recommend!
