Named “Ohio’s Best Burger” by Reader’s Digest, the Galley Boy is Swensons’ signature double cheeseburger.

The restaurant will be located at 8894 US Highway 36 and is set to open this fall.

Swensons Drive-In opened in Akron, Ohio in 1934 and has several locations throughout the Cleveland/Akron area and Ohio. The Avon location will be the company's first outside of Ohio.
