12 Best Cafes in Akron

“I ordered the Sweet Potato & Black Bean burrito for something a little different and meatless. It exceeded my expectations. I let my daughter try some of mine (she’s not a big fan of kale) and she didn’t want to give it back. It’s that good. The staff is awesome. Please don’t stop what you’re doing.“

“I'm participating in Akron's Drip Drive this year by checking out all the local coffee shops in Akron, and Evelyn's has quickly become my new favorite spot by far! Their Vietnamese coffee is delicious, and I got to try a lemongrass bahn mi when I went back on a weekend and it was heavenly. But then I stopped there another week day morning before work for a coffee & bahn mi, but was sad to learn their kitchen didn't open until after 10am. Which means I'll never get to bring a bahn mi to work with me to have for lunch :( My heart broke a little as I don't work close enough to Evelyn's to drive back there midday. I wonder how many others tried to order a bahn mi in the morning for breakfast or lunch but couldn't. These hours are not clear on the website either unfortunately. I wish I could leave a 4.5 stars for this reason but yeah. I hope they have plans to expand their kitchen hours soon!!! But I'll definitely be back for at least the coffee regardless.“

“Clean friendly delicious food great service personable cook and staff“

“Stopped by today and was very impressed with the quality of the teas. We loved the chocolate milk tea and strawberry fruit tea. The staff was friendly and prices reasonable. We’ll be back!“

“Highly recommend the white cherry mocha. Best cuppa coffee I’ve ever had.“

“The food was so good! I love the environment and the chairs were super comfortable. My only issue would be they are not very attentive with the community table, but despite that I don’t mind a little wait for some hot fresh breakfast and with Christmas right around the corner I’d expect a little wait. The potatoes were very tasty along with the egg sandwich. I for sure plan on going back to try more. The menu has so many unique things on it including the ricotta pancakes. Every serve there was very nice and lovely!“

“service was quick and polite. very relaxing atmosphere. food was great and had good sized portions. potatoes (shredded hash browns) were perfect. as was the eggs n bacon. highly recommended“

“The worst thing was the music speaker was right over the couch and loud. We sat up front. The coffee was t really good. The chocolate babka is wonderful. We got lucky to meet a little friend who gifted us with a craft she was making. It was a pretty magical experience.

Unfortunately its not easy to get to from where we live. We don't get to go often. It's always a treat when we do.“

“Food was good but the guy with the ponytail at the restaurant was rude I was asking about if they had the T-Shirts in a large I was very polite and the guy was like hold your horses I am making your food I am sorry but I work in the food business and I would never talk to a customer rudely and this was my first time at this place and it didn’t feel welcoming and I won’t come back if staff will be rude! The lady who sold the shirt and beanie was nice!“

“Besides the tasty, healthy snacks and drinks, we also enjoy the nice people who work there: Dan, Leah, Armani, Christina & Bree.“

“Everything we have tried has been great! Definitely recommend!“

“Long time customer here of this location Mustard Seed! Exploring finding meaningful conscious food for special events, or a quick something on the go. Many a days studying and enjoying the cafe.
I recently rented out the banquet room for a special event, it’s a no brainer I practically live there! This experience exceeded my expectations in every way possible. Special shout out to Carla who intuitively graced all of my needs said and unsaid. This woman deserves a raise. The bakery went above and beyond providing the perfect most detailed and delectable cake! Another shout out to Tammy who helped me coordinate it all, she made this process so easy and smooth.
Thank you Mustard Seed for being such a corner stone of the community and providing a divine space for such a meaningful experience .“
