Since 1997 Minerva Classic has offered food, fun, and a place to spend quality time with your family sharing a great meal. Locally owned for 15 years, co-owners Greg and Diane Smith work very hard to keep Minerva Classic your home town restaurant. Classic serves food from a menu of all American favorites, including build your own juicy burger, beer battered fish, classic sandwiches and hand dipped shakes. In November 2009, Greg hired what locals say, “the best baker and cook in Ohio”, so save room for dessert. Thank you for stopping in at Minerva Classic. The Smith Family

First time being here, very nice and sports like on the inside, booth and table seating. Very clean and the service was outstanding.

When we visit Minerva, we have been customers at Minerva Classic 57, for many years. On our most recent visit, in December 2022, we found that the restaurant is under new owners, called “John’s Bakery and Cafe”.

The place is so cute and the employees were wonderful! So glad we found this little diner ❤️ I got one of the specials for mothers day, Belgium waffles with fresh fruit, and omg was it the most amazing waffles I’ve ever had! Will definitely be back over and over again!

Classic diner done well. Good, fresh food cooked just right (fresh-cut fries, burger cooked medium). Friendly, helpful staff. Looks a little boring from the outside, but bright and fun inside.

Had the Rueben sandwich , amazing amount of tasty meat but the bread fell apart by the time I got to the second half. Fish sandwich was adequate not to be compared to that of the Elm In in taste or portion .

Great food. Burgers were delicious. You’ve got to try the King Kong burger! Service was great for our party. Casual dining environment.

We were traveling through and found Minerva Classic 57 here on Google. Stopped in @8:35pm, ordered our food and they had it out to us by 8:55pm. Food was delicious employees were very friendly, and very clean. Our waitress seemed a little lost. She is a young teenager, almost like she is new there and as a waitress. I was surprised she had no idea what the soup of the day was and it was the end of the day. If we come through again we will definitely stop back in.

I used to come here every other month for All U can eat Fish. So I been coming that long. Their food is still delicious but last few times we’ve dine in the service is slipping. A few times ago we were in the big room & multiple parties got up & walked out.
