Booth
Consider Jukebox's semiprivate booth an extension of owner Alex Budin's living room. "You can fit 10 people comfortably, 20 people uncomfortably," says the 30-year-old proprietor of the rock-inspired tavern in Ohio City. "It's a great hangout." Recovered from a former lounge, the arc-shaped vinyl booth is surrounded by exposed brick - some tarnished with soot from a fire during its Ohio City Cafe days. Rock posters from bands such as Wilco, Public Enemy and the Black Keys are plastered over some of the walls. Nestled into a nook right off the bar, the booth invites you to sit and stay awhile. But don't idle for too long - the 100-album jukebox is just waiting for you to choose a ditty. "We rotate the music selection constantly," Budin says. "The jukebox is a conduit to learn more about music." 1404 W. 29th St., Cleveland, 216-206-7699, jukeboxcle.com
