It’s tough to find white linen dining in Ashland. Proper tablecloths, silverware, and great service. Well, it’s at the Accent Room on the campus of Ashland University. The walls are adorned with really cool photos, plaques, and political memorabilia from the Ashbrook Center. Very nice décor! The food is great: typical American fare with an added touch to break out of the ordinary. Example: I had a triple decker club. It’s got the usuals: turkey, ham, bacon… but also a great pesto mayo. Add sweet potato fries and you have a way better than average lunch. Even better: it’s still under $ 10 per person for an entrée and drink. The cherry on top is the service. The staff is attentive, cordial, and extremely welcoming. At the time of my visit, there were 2 large groups. In typical restaurant situations, those large groups get a disproportionate amount of attention. But, I was still individually catered to at the Accent Room. And at the end of the meal, since you’re doing something nice for yourself, why not end with an AU cookie sundae? Or get a warm cookie to go? Do not skip the cookies!
