Located about 40 minutes outside of Cleveland is a tiny Medina County community that you could easily blink and miss. Valley City, also known as Liverpool Township, can be found at the intersection of State Routes 252 and 303. It’s best known for its annual Frog Jump, an odd tradition inspired by a Mark Twain story. However, it’s also known for country-style cookin’ and sweet treats. Valley City Chill & Grille is the best place for both… and if you find yourself in this part of Medina County, then you absolutely should swing by.

Located right on Route 303, Valley City Chill and Grille is a modern little diner surrounded by history.
