Openings & closings

A structured record of what opened, closed, and was announced across Greater Cleveland — not a stream of articles. Every row cites a source. Free to use and free to cite, including by newsrooms.

33 entries · 17 openings · 4 closings · 11 announced · 1 reopened or relocated · Download CSV · JSON

A business name links to that business's own site where it has one. The Source column links to the coverage the row is built on — those are two different things and we keep them apart deliberately.

Using this data

The dataset is free to use, including commercially, with attribution to the Cleveland Foodservice Guide. If you are a reporter working on a story about the local restaurant economy and need a cut we do not publish, get in touch — we will pull it for you.

A note on what this is not: an entry here records a status change and cites where we learned of it. It is not a judgment about a business, its finances, or the people who run it. If we get something wrong, we correct it fast and say that we did.
