Did you know you can dine and drink inside some century-old bank vaults beneath the Cleveland Trust Rotunda? Most people don’t. Vault is an upscale cocktail lounge that makes you feel as if you’re temporarily stepping back in time. The next time you’re in the Cleveland area, you’ll want to take some time to check it out.
What was once a series of massive bank vaults is now a stunning place to eat and drink.
The food menu is just as divine. Pictured are the Porchetta Petites, which feature local pork, gremolata aioli, celery leaf, pecorino romano and a warm baguette.
Plan to spend some time here wandering through the various rooms. (And if you're curious about the history behind this restored gem, you can always ask a staff member what they know.)
Note: Vault is available for private events on Sundays and Mondays. You can call 216-331-6325 for more information.
The Vault is located at The 9 – Level B1, 2017 E. 9th Street, Cleveland, OH 44115. Have you ever been here before? If so, we want to know what your experience was like!
