Shirts are AVAILABLE! We want to say THANK YOU for your continued love & support through these trying times. We know its been a HELL of a difficult road for everyone the last 6 months. We know we don't have to sit and argue the fact that the industry is hurting, we ALL are getting taken down little by little. We had been forced to shut down 'Live Music' and with that, the entire basement of Annabell's has been closed. With already 3/4 of our business haulted and 'Live Music' being our niche, we then had to limit capacity to the upstairs. Struggling is and understatement... This post is meant to be as straightforward as we can make it, we could use a little help. We held a T-Shirt fundraiser a few months back and were overwhelmed with the response. The funds raised were able to help pay a months rent. As many of you liked the original brown monk t-shirt design, many of you pleaded for the same version in good 'ole traditional Annabell's BLACK. The new black t-shirts are made with the same blend as the soft brown t's - 50/50 cotton/poly - super soft and comfy.
We didn't know if we'd make it this far but well... we officially made it to ROUND 2 of our desperate pleas for your support. The link to our SHOP with t-shirts and other goodies is in our BIO. Please note that you can either chose delivery or pickup within the checkout process. Orders will be processed and either shipped or ready for pickup at Annabell's, within 1-3 days. THANK YOU for your SUPPORT! We sincerely love each and every one of you, miss you all dearly and hope to see you all soon.

The Square Scullery 🖤🙌

BIG NEWS: A couple months before the shut down we had renovated our waiting room into a tiny swanky 13/14 seat dining room to allow for a more intimate full service dining experience. It's been since mid March that we've even let anyone inside to pick up to go orders, let alone dine in. Due to social distancing requirements, there has been no way of even allowing any kind of normal seating capacity to resume because of our small size.
.
.
With the end of patio season nearing, we have been thinking of fun ways to get creative with the space we have on a continued trend of unconventional out of the box problem solving. We are super stoked to announce that within the next couple weeks, we will begin to allow indoor seating again via time slotted reservation only. Our goal is to be able to provide an incredibly unique & super intimate dining experience for you in a safe and fully sanitized environment, ONE table / party at a time.
.
.
Although this is completely untraditional & limiting capacity wise, we truly hope that you are excited about the idea of being able to privately book the dining room out exclusively for yourself & loved ones. We think it's going to be a lot of fun!
.
.
We will have full details in the coming weeks, with reservation instructions, and safety precautions that will be in effect. For now, we will start with only one table at a time for the foreseeable future before we consider any further additional seating options.

Stay tuned!!
XO Square Fam

Now Available - Pabst Blue Ribbon Hard Tea is billed as “deliciously effervescent with a natural peach flavor”—a so-called “uniquely Pabstidian evolution of the seltzer market.” The 4 percent ABV drink—sold in 100-calorie, 12-ounce cans with just 3 gram of sugar—is also described as being “brewed using real tea leaves.” #annabellsakron #pabstblueribbon #highlandsquareakron

Bricco Akron

Bricco Akron

Due to ongoing construction, lack of Akron foot traffic, and guests refusing to wear masks and social distance, tonight will be Bricco Akron's last night of dine-in service until further notice.

Bricco Akron will still be available for take-out and delivery. We will be continuing with our current menu as well as creating weekly specials and larger family style options. Please continue to call in, order on line, or use DoorDash. Although we haven't been open for lunch, we can accommodate larger lunch deliveries with advanced notice. We will also try to accommodate private events in the restaurant.

We'd like to give a huge shout-out to our landlord who has given us the concessions needed to help us get through this difficult time and ensure we will be able to reopen when Akron gets back to normal. We look forward to seeing you at our other locations, Pub Bricco, Bricco Kent, and Cafe Bricco (reopening soon) and dining together again in Akron soon. In the meantime, stay safe, stay healthy, and support local!
