DeleteHi there! Could anyone tell me which of these is closest to Toledo, Ohio?
ReplyDeleteHi Sin! Your best bet with what we've found so far is The Urban Forge near Cleveland. Not ideal, but we'll be sure to update this page as soon as something closer comes up.
ReplyDeleteHello, I live in Cleveland. is there a reason you say that Urban Forge isn't ideal?
DeleteHi Anon-
DeleteThe Urban Forge is excellent, it's just a little far from Toledo while still being the closest to Sin above. Hope that clears it up!
