There are all sorts of splendid suburbs just outside of the Metropolitan area, and many have a culture that’s interconnected with Cleveland’s thanks to commuters and transplants. One of the more interesting communities near Cleveland is Medina, a big, suburban city with a small-town feel. Its historic downtown is a huge draw to visitors, but right around the corner from the touristy district is one of the coolest game shops near Cleveland. In addition to games, it has goodies that’ll fuel your concentration… including a huge array of sweets that’ll hit the spot. Prepare to step into another world, because this is one store that will transport you to your happy place.
Every so often a sweet retreat from reality is needed, and there's no better place to escape to than Sweets & Geeks.
Located in a former Habitat For Humanity Restore storefront is a vast collectibles store that feels like the kind of wonderland you might uncover in Downtown Cleveland. This little gem fits splendidly in the culture of Medina, where old school architecture and a slower pace of life combine flawlessly with forward-thinking businesses.
This super fun (and rather large) store is located right outside of Medina Square, and it's filled to the brim with sweet snacks and games.
Sweets & Geeks is amazing for the whole family. Kid-friendly and adult-friendly games can be found here, including favorites like Cards Against Humanity.
