Akron Zoo

As part of their mission the Akron Zoo strives to be a leading example of conservation action that benefits the natural world and its inhabitants. Also, their menus also feature local, organic, and sustainable selections, along with being served on bio-degradable disposables.

The Guest Comfort Station is a room available for guests to use for privacy and is located across from the Humboldt penguin exhibit. Equipped with furniture, the room is perfect for nursing mothers and guests who might need a moment of privacy.

You certainly won't be going hungry at the zoo! They have the Komodo Kingdom Cafe with full menu and snacks, as well as the seasonal Grasslands Cafe with treats, Dippin Dots for ice cream, and a 4-star Green Restaurant too!

When you arrive, check what shows, feeds or events are on across the day so you can plan your day around them!
