22 Best Cafes near Brunswick

“So delicious and so many great crepe options. The owner and staff are so kind and friendly and the cafe is cozy. The only downside is having to decide on sweet or savory...or sometimes I just get 2 and take 2 halves home.“

“I’d been drooling over GSB’s pastries on Facebook for months like a sugar-starved stalker, and I finally found myself in the area—hallelujah. The second I walked in, I was hit with a wave of sugary air and a warm hello that felt like a hug from a cinnamon bun. There were so many treats I wanted to adopt, but the second I saw the giant, chocolate-covered cream puff, it basically yelled, “Take me to your husband!” Mission accepted. I brought it home and casually told my husband, “Hey, I picked up a little pastry for you.” Hours later, he opened the bag and said—verbatim—“Holy #%?!”. This thing was an absolute unit. At least six inches tall, overflowing with fresh whipped cream like it was showing off. We both took a bite and just stared at each other like we’d seen pastry heaven. It was rich, cloud-like, and somehow not overly sweet. My husband, a self-proclaimed cream puff connoisseur, declared it the best he’s ever had. And trust me, the man has puff experience. Only one thought: throw in a middle pastry layer, Big Mac-style. Not because it needs it, but because my jaw would appreciate the break from climbing Mt. Cream Puff.“

“The Grounded Bean is my husband and I’s go-to coffee spot! They have delicious coffee (not to mention the fun seasonal specials), the best build-your-own bagel sandwiches, and the sweetest treats to top it all off. It’s our favorite little shop that we love big time! 🤍“

“wash your dishes. the water bottle they brought out to us had 3 pieces of dried food on the inside. I noticed after I drank a couple glasses. turned my stomach. I'll never go back.“

“The service was fast and friendly on this visit. Quite a nice departure from other locations forcing the iPad ordering. I was greeted promptly, my order taken quickly and accurately, and I even allowed an upsell. It was quite quiet even with a steady stream of customers flowing through because they were efficient.“

“Super healthy and delicious food and drinks and a very friendly environment!!! Definitely recommend - the best cafe in the area! The owners are so nice ☺️🤗 We love coming here!“

“Tried a few pastries and a blue raspberry mojito today and everything was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back.“

“My daughter and I have visited the Strongsville location a few times, and it’s always been a delicious treat! For a fun “coffee treat”, she loves their milk steamer with pumpkin spice flavoring. We haven’t ventured away from our usual, but the Nutella with strawberries and bananas is always delicious and so filling. She actually won’t stop talking about how good their Nutella is 😆 Their croissants are amazing, and everyone has always been so nice.“

“This has become one of my new favorite coffee spots. Great location in Olmsted Falls. Coffee is great, and they also have great food including pastries, grilled cheese, and soup. A nice comfortable atmosphere for getting work done as well. 10/10!“

“Went here today after my sons and I visited cleveland clinic and this place is a godsend. They feed you, send you home with food have coffee made for you its like a restaurant in god's office. Absolutely a blessing. I will be coming back and I want to support this organization to keep growing. We left there today with warm food, hearts, and love. Jojo is a blessing to this place and is a straight up humanitarian. They dont treat you like a bother or make you feel embarrassed its like a Cafe where everyone goes to hang out and collect blessing. Thank you so much Jojo and I look forward to seeing you all again.“

“I work downtown (Berea) so we appreciate these gems with great hours, food/drinks, and consistency. They prepare our orders for pickup so quickly, and it's always delicious. Highly recommended.“

“Great event! Spooktacular dog costume contest! Finn approved“

“I love Cool Beans, I came here for the first time a few months ago and have loved it ever since. Definitely my favorite coffee shop in Medina! The service is great and the coffee is even better. Would 100% perfect recommend checking this place out.“

“My daughter and I just kinda stumbled upon this place yesterday and so glad we did! We both got protein shakes and they were delicious! The sweet girl that made them was so kind as to even look up the sugar content in my banana foster shake. Great service and excellent product!! Looking forward to going back 🧋“

“Everything is delicious, and the people serving are super friendly. Highly recommend.“

“Wheelchair accessible, friendly staff, delicious coffee!“

“Found this place on a whim and placed a custom order ahead for cupcakes and cake pops. They turned out beautiful and tasted even better! The premium cupcake fill is definitely worth it and very reasonably priced imo. I ended up also getting a premade cupcake to use as a smash cake and it was perfect, but the pricing for a custom smash cake is also very reasonable. I would 10/10 recommend and would order from here again. The gentleman at the counter for pick up was also very friendly and everything at the counter looked delicious!“

“We had a fantastic experience dining here, and it quickly became one of our new favorite spots. The food selection is genuinely impressive, with a wide variety of options that make it easy for everyone at the table to find something they’ll love. Whether you’re in the mood for something hearty, something light, or something a bit more adventurous, there’s truly something for every taste. Be sure to check out their seasonal menu too!

One thing that stood out to us was how allergy‑friendly the restaurant is. It can be difficult to find places that take dietary needs seriously, but the staff here was knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel completely comfortable. It’s clear they put real thought into accommodating all guests.

The unlimited coffee at the table was another huge plus—fresh, hot, and refilled without us ever having to ask. For families, the kid‑friendly options make dining here even easier. There were plenty of choices that our kids enjoyed, and the welcoming atmosphere made the experience stress‑free.

On top of all that, the service was excellent. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, quick, and genuinely seemed to care about creating a positive experience. We’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Great place! Nice menu to choose from. Reasonably priced too! Friendly, efficient staff too!“

“Alana was great! She was running around while the rest of the employees did their side work and ignored the front. She checked everyone out and sat everyone while also remaining attentive to our table and the rest of the tables she had. Super disappointed in the rest of her coworkers. It appeared she was the only one working. Running around trying to get to everyone. Get that girl a black apron! Signed a former First Watch server!“

“My family and I stopped in to grab a quick meal before a flex. The atmosphere was very chill and the space clean. We were greated by Mike and a young lady by the name of Lee. They made sure our order was taken and correct. The service was quick and the food delicious. Huge shout out to them for getting us back on the road asap.“
