The Skinny – This barn shaped ... well ... barn, is home to a collection of longtime locals, the entire 21-26 year-old demographic of Chagrin and neighboring Bainbridge (of where the 'Ville actually resides by a few car lengths) and slumming East suburban socialites--who are so astonished to find such a spot in the village of Victorian vanity, that they celebrate as though they have stumbled upon the lost city of Mohawchi. – – The Scene – The exterior (recently remodeled to get the whining "bubble yuppies" off their back) leads to a mercifully dark…

Can you rate this 1/2 star?

How did the other reviewers fail to mention the rowdy college crowd, primary seating consisting of 2 picnic tables & one long bench squeezed up against the wall, as well as people dancing on the tables & splashing their drinks, a stage for bands that is the size of a postage stamp, the loud acoustics that will have your ears ringing for days, and the claustrophobic feeling you get from being squeezed against every guy and girl in this overcrowded night spot? Bar fights are not uncommon here either! Two assaults in '09 have sent people out in an ambulance.
Unless you're a member of the local police or fire dept or one of the other "locals" that frequent this bar/restaurant, it is hard to find a reason to travel here. There are plenty of better places to go and listen to a live band. I can't imagine what else packs the patrons in besides the blaring music.
- Pros: Reasonable drink prices
- Cons: Rowdy, dirty, overcrowded & very loud!.

Good food, great atmosphere, fair prices

My friends over in Canyon Lakes recommended I stop in for the food. I never knew they even served food. I was pleasantly suprised by the quantity and quality of the food for the price. My kids keep asking when we can go again so they can play the wii.
- Pros: Biggest wings I've ever had

Best time I've had in years!

This was my first time at The Greenville Inn, or The Ville as the locals call it, where I heard this band called the Spazmatics was playing. What a great band for a place you almost wouldn't notice from the outside. I can honestly say the end of the night gets a little fuzzy, but I had a great freakin time! There were people dancing on the picnic tables, people dancing on the bar, just about everywhere there was room, people were dancing. Amazingly, as crowded as it was, the service was great and I barely had to wait to get my cherrybombs, part of why it gets a little fuzzy later, but my friend who I was buying them to drink with was happy, and it showed later on in the night. What a great freakin time! Can't wait to go again next week. I hear they have Carlos Jones playing
- Pros: The music was phenomenal, drinks cheap, and the people almost too friendly
- Cons: took to long to get to the bathroom
