Restaurant of the Month: Whispering Orchards, Cleveland
Have you ever been some place and wondered why in the world you haven’t been there before? That is how I felt
on my first visit to Whispering Orchards Café & Country Store. As soon as your tires hit the drive that rolls up to the cafe, you are greeted by beautifully ancient trees outstretched over a sizable barn holding everything from chickens and llamas to pheasants and baby bunnies. A working orchard with trees dating back over a hundred years, the rural Cleveland property holds acres of apple trees, antique outbuildings, and the occasional peacock strutting its stuff. After admiring the adorable goats, we made our way into the café.
