The Clark-Fulton neighborhood, which is located on the west side of Cleveland, is one of the city’s most ethnically diverse communities, especially with a substantial and flourishing Hispanic community.
This thriving, multi-cultural hub celebrates its growing diversity through arts, music, education and entrepreneurship. Summertime markets support the community’s developing legacy, giving space to local entrepreneurs and artists eager to showcase their prodigious products and talents. And let us not forget the food — a mouth-watering selection of locally owned restaurants and bakeries serving everything from Cubanos and empanadas to gumbo and spaghetti with meatballs.
Now we’re talking. Visiting La Morenita will tantalize your tastebuds with flavorful (yet affordably priced) Dominican meals. Next, hustle to Caribe Bake Shop, a 20-year Fulton Road stronghold where traditional Puerto Rican recipes are the order of the day. Exploring the neighborhood will also reveal nachos and burritos; wings and jambalaya; as well as dozens of other delightful pairings to satisfy any culinary craving.
Heritage stays alive in Clark-Fulton as brick-faced buildings intermingle with brightly painted storefronts and a renewed sense of vigor.
