FAIRVIEW PARK, Ohio – Our brunch and breakfast series continues as we check out Gunselman's Tavern. Here’s a look at what to expect:

Location + hours: 21490 Lorain Road, Fairview Park, 440-331-5719. Hours: Brunch starts at 11 a.m. on Sundays. (Call to see what menu is available based on football crowds.)

Menu or buffet? Menu.

About the place: A very comfortable corner-bar atmosphere on the West Side. Four owners, including Joseph McDonough, bought the place in 2014. It has been Gunselman’s Tavern since 1936, and the current quartet is the seventh ownership. It’s nice to see the current owners respecting history, keeping old photos of the bar’s early days. There’s a patio and dedicated parking lot out back.

About the menu: Sausage and gravy had just the right amount of heat - not too spicy, but not boring by any means. Biscuits are homemade. A traditional eggs-bacon-and-toast meal was quite tasty and not run of the mill: Strips of bacon were very thick and perfectly cooked. Wheat toast was not just brown sandwich bread, it was whole grain with a nice crunch. And old-fashioned cheesy potatoes served as both comfort food and a different spin on the usual hash browns.

About the drinks: Bloody Mary bar is in the works.

Don’t miss: Can't say yet! The menu is in the midst of being tweaked with some new dishes coming.

Good deal: On our visit a hot-dog bar was available with dogs for $1.50 and Miller High Life for $1.50 as well.

Nice touch: The homemade biscuits with the incredibly tasty biscuits and gravy bowl were football shaped, timed for a Browns game.
