Cleveland Indians and the Cincinnati Reds: Goodyear Ballpark
All week long we're sharing suggestions of where to find breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks near each spring training stadium. Have a favorite spot baseball fans should hit? Leave it in the comments.
Ohio is one of those Midwestern states known for its hearty, high-caloric, or carb-laden cuisine, whether it's the thick and spicy Cincinnati chili or Polish staples like pierogi and paprikash. So it's only apropos that the stadium where Ohio's two teams train in the springtime not only serves plenty of heart-stopping concession-stand fare (including fried bologna on a stick), it's also surrounded by eateries dishing out a variety of gut-busting grub.

| TJ's Homestyle Restaurant |
TJ's Homestyle Restaurant
As its name and shabby homespun décor portends, TJ's is a folksy breakfast and lunch place serving up greasy spoon fare of the stick-to-your-ribs variety. Most everything on its quaint menu is made from scratch, whether it's the gooey cinnamon rolls, buttermilk pancakes, or the homemade biscuits (which practically melt in your mouth). If a regular-size order of these baked beauties isn't big enough, try the "Farmer's Special," in which a few of 'em are smothered with cheddar, three eggs, bacon, ham, and sausage gravy. Oh, and there's extra cheese on top for good measure. It's almost as ginormous as TJ's 20-ounce hamsteaks, which are large enough to cover an entire plate. Better remove your belt before sitting down.
