Jilly's Music Room

GF EVERYTHING DELICIOUS such a cool spot - would love to come back for music but this time we visited for brunch - so so good!!!! Best coffee, lovely service and everything was freshly made. Will be coming back as next time my kids want chicken and waffles - we saw them on another plate and they looked not to be missed!!!

I loved the scene at Jilly's Music Room. We came for a Sunday brunch - entire menu was gluten free, and delicious. Vibe was hip / relaxed. Service had a minor oversight or two but we were so relaxed we cared absolutely 0% and everyone was super friendly about making it right and we ended up laughing about it. Totally coming back for a music event.Great venue - places like this are why I love Akron so much.

Stop in to grab a drink and listen to some music. The bartenders were friendly and the prices were decent. I don't remember what I ordered. But I do remember that it wasn't quite what I expected. It came out quickly. It was hot and fresh. It was spicier than I would have liked. But I am not a fan of anything hot so that's probably me.The band that was playing that night was booked as a blue's band. The band was good but definitely not what I would classify as blues.It was right across the street from the hotel that I was staying in. So it was very convenient. I will definitely stop and again if I stay at that hotel.

We stopped into Jilly's Music Room for brunch today and absolutely love this place! The fact that they are fully Gluten free is a huge plus so we do not need to worry about any ingredients in this restaurant. Highly recommend the monte cristo as it was full of flavor! The service was fantastic as always and we will definitely be coming back for brunch again.

Jilly's is a local spot known for live music in downtown Akron, and I was impressed with how pleasant and comfortable it was on my first visit there last month. It's cozy inside with plenty of seating close to the stage in the back, or up front at tables or at the bar. The lighting is great, it wasn't too loud, and the service was friendly. The show that night was free and the crowd was a mix of older and younger folks.

Great staff and very clean establishment. Live music and a sense of present ownership. Highly recommended!

We came here last Friday around 6:30 because we were looking for a new place to try with an extensive gluten-free menu. Jilly's entire restaurant is gluten-free, which is awesome. When we arrived, they asked us to pay a cover, even though the band wasn't playing until 8pm. We left around 7:45 and asked if we could have the cover back since we never saw the show, and they did refund us, which I appreciated. We sat at the bar and ordered soft drinks - Jilly's doesn't carry straws, which I understand, but I still prefer my drinks with a straw. We ordered the fried cheese sticks, the chicken satay, the firecracker shrimp, and the garlic flatbread. The satay was very unimpressive. For $9, it was really small and so chargrilled that all we could taste was burnt. Even with the peanut coconut dipping sauce, the flavor was underwhelming. My husband said the shrimp was good but nothing he'd order again. The cheese sticks were really good - they only give you three, but they are large. The flatbread was the real star of the show. It was crispy, large, and really flavorful. My husband even called it "phenomenal" and he is quite the foodie. We got to hear the opening act warming up and agreed that we wished we had come later because they sounded really good! If you order your food before 7pm, they will also give you 20% off your Bill. We thought the flatbread was reasonably priced , but that the other dishes were a bit expensive if not for the discount. We will definitely come back because the menu was pretty large(even though they have cut it back due to COVID) and the music was good. I will bring my own straw next time!

We newly moved to Northern Ohio and were so happy to find a 100% gluten free menu at Jilly's. Stopped there for a Saturday brunch and all 3 dishes my group ordered were delicious. The portions were generous and they make a great cup of coffee as well. Our wait person friendly and attentive. We plan to return for dinner and music. Great place!

This restaurant was a wonderful surprise during our visit to Akron! The food was very tasty, the service was friendly and prompt, and the menu was broadly varied. Anyone would truly enjoy a meal at Jilly's but it was a particular pleasure for my girlfriend when she discovered that everything on the menu is gluten free. And trust me, nobody dining here will miss the gluten!

Walked in and immediately felt a bad vibe. A very sad and weird joint. Nothing at all hanging on the walls, which you would think a music bar would have stuff on the walls. We were never even given a menu, the bartender didn't seem too interested in serving us, so we sat there for about five minutes and left. Then it was weird walking by the weird doorman checking IDs at the door.
