Laura Ashton's Hingetown spot is the antidote to all-too-common sandwich woes. She opened Little Cloud Sandwiches in April with her husband, Matt (they also own Lekko Coffee down the street), and friends Rachael and Jared Champion (who also own Iggy's Bar in Lakewood). Little Cloud’s sandwich-slinger-in-chief, chef David “Skippy” Rutherford, has crafted a small but mighty menu of carefully curated creations.

So far, the most popular is the turkey and brie ($13), layered with crisp apple, crispy prosciutto and peppery dressed arugula, with a rich tarragon creme fraiche. The menu also features classic breakfast options with a spin, and specials rotate throughout the year to mine the bounty of their respective seasons.

“You know the phrase, ‘When you’re sitting on a cloud?’ We like to say that we sell a little bit of that feeling,” Ashton muses. “If you’re having a bad day and you grab a sandwich, then it’s a good day. If you’re having a great day and you grab a sandwich, then it’s an even better day.”

With a goal of 50 stores by 2028, the Cleveland-born sandwich chain continues its rapid expansion by opening its 20th location in Fairview Park.

Dave Lombardy opened the first Dave’s Cosmic Subs shop in Chagrin Falls in 1997. Three years ago, Paul Sidhu, President and CEO of Shaker Heights-based Sidhu Realty Capital, purchased the entire company from its founders.

Since that time, the new ownership has introduced a mobile app, rolled out a new logo and implemented additional business enhancements to accompany the expansion of its locations.

“We're trying to get to 50 stores within three years – and we’re on track to hit that and probably even exceed it,” Sidhu says.
