Six brands. One neighborhood-first philosophy.
Rogue Development Group (publicly known as Rogue Restaurant Group) is the Northeast Ohio hospitality company behind 6 local bar & restaurant brands and roughly 10 operating locations across the Akron-Canton-Cleveland area — from Copley and Green to Medina, Kent, and Strongsville. Every brand keeps its own name, menu, and neighborhood identity; what they share is a kitchen-first, late-night, community-bar approach to hospitality.
The Town Tavern
A Northeast Ohio neighborhood-bar staple — scratch pub food, sports on every TV, and a menu that runs 11am to 2:30am nearly every day of the year.
Cheers
A Montrose-corridor bar & bistro with a loyal regulars crowd, daily happy hour, and a "stop in and apply" hiring culture.
Johnny J's Pub & Grille
Rogue's largest brand family — four full pub & grille locations across Medina, Portage Lakes, Springfield, and Strongsville, each with its own late-night kitchen and bar.
The Nut House Pub & Grille
Kent's newest pub & grille, opened in the former Panini's space on South Water Street — scratch pretzels, a full bar, and the same late-night hours the group is known for.
Crust & Cocktails
Rogue's newest concept (opened June 2025 in Liberty Commons) — gourmet pizza, wine, and craft cocktails in a 55-seat room led by the group's culinary team.
Sunrise Social
An early-morning cafe in the Green/Uniontown market — breakfast and brunch daily from 6:30am to 2pm, with a dedicated senior menu each weekday morning.
We're hiring across every location
Servers, bartenders, line cooks, hosts, and managers — all 6 brands, one application.
