Peter Shears in Downtown Canton

One of the many friends of Ed and friends and I had lunch at Peter Shears Downtown in Canton OH yesterday. Peter Shears has always had a reputation as a stuffy, over priced fine dining restaurant. I will be the first to tell you that this is simply not the case.
Peter Shears is in the basement of a 100+ year old building in downtown Canton. It has the feel of a prohibition speakeasy. It is VERY cool inside.
The beer menu could use a little work and since it was lunch, I really didn’t even look at the wine or drink menus.
The food was fabulous. We both had Ohio raised hamburgers. Mine was topped with double smoked bacon and cheddar cheese. My lunch companion’s was topped with provolone cheese and lettuce/tomato. Both were cooked perfectly. We both had the sweet and sour cole slaw for a side and we both agreed that if our lunch was only a big bowl of the slaw we would have been happy with it. A wonderful 7 ounce burger with the side of slaw was $9. This we thought was very reasonable since we were very full and VERY pleased with our meal.
I can’t wait for an opportunity to take the beautiful Mrs. Ed and friends to Peter Shears for dinner.
My advice is to get to Peter Shears as soon as you can and 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Oh, and PS. It only took 33 minutes to get from Peter Shears to Wooster.
