“Really cool atmosphere and vibes!!
Service was okay - not unfriendly but not overly helpful. Coffee was great! Croissants with pistachio butter were THE BEST, would go back for this again and again. Other food was very small portions for the price.“

“Love supporting a small, local spot over the chains. Biscuit Sandwich was 🤤🤤“

“The coffee and service were great, but unfortunately the baked goods were not. My son and I each got a lemon poppyseed scone, and they had a strange taste. They didn't really taste like lemon at all, and I couldn't eat it. We took our order to go or I would have said something. I would go back for the coffee and atmosphere.“

“I got the Gengar (Taro Slushie with coconut Jelly & with Tapioca Boba & Strawberry Heart Jelly & with Cookies & Cream! It was soo delicious and amazing. The people there are so nice! I totally recommend this place🩵!.“

“Delicious coffee. I get my beans here every month and the coffee in shop is always brewed to perfection.“

“Tabletop is a great place to go if you like playing board games. They have a large and diverse selection of games, so you can never run out of new games to play. They have a unique menu of tasty food, along with a great selection of drinks and cocktails. Their servers are kind, attentive, and very helpful in finding the perfect game for you to play if you're not sure where to start. They have some awesome events like trivia, RPG nights, and game clinics. I highly recommend going to Tabletop!“

“I don’t always drink Turkish coffee, but Eugene made one for me and it was great! Visiting Cleveland from Michigan for the weekend so I felt compelled to make the pilgrimage LOL. Eugene was nice and friendly and very welcoming. In wanted some burek but I guess they’re so good that they sell out quickly Lol. Next time though!“

“We stopped in for lunch and it exceeded our expectations! We ordered a ham sandwich on focaccia bread with potato, broccoli and cheddar soup, and the Claudio sandwich with white bread. It was all spectacular! The story of how the shop started was also sweet to read inside the restaurant. We will definitely stop here again next time we are in the area.“

“We randomly decided to stop here on our walk! The atmosphere was wonderful and the barista was so friendly. We got an iced americano with a splash of cream and vanilla flavor. It was wonderful! We just stopped in but I would highly recommend for studying or reading and I’d love to come back and try their lattes or teas:). The prices are also great and not crazy high!“

“great place to come to hang with good people and listen to some great much. they recently just reopened their kitchen and the food is actually good. they sometimes have a band which is amazing because who doesn’t want to hear any live music.“

“Picture it Sicily 1936 lol....Nah seriously let me tell you about my favorite hideout. The sunny spot @ finn cafe is the place to be. There is a wraparound bar that has enough seating everyone. TVs are everywhere. You would never know it but there is a Cigar lounge tucked off behind some closed doors. It is beautiful. The atmosphere is friendly and kind of like that old TV show Cheers....sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name and glad you came. A mixed crowd of friendly people.of all ages. Now let's talk about food. Blessed Foods run the kitchen. ANNNNDDDD baby I cannot unbig my back because of Easter & Doonty. Now let's get to the service! Yall got to be entertained and greeted by the bartender Kelly. Oh she is an experience you will never forget. You can't help but love her. Music is flowing and it's a party. Different nights have different specials and activities. You may not come for a long time but it damn sure is a good time.“

“Food is excellent! Service even better! Highly recommended! #irishlove“

“Very good food, owner was family friendly, good prices. I will be back!“

“Great office building lunchateria with friendly people and surprisingly delicious yet affordable lunch and breakfast selections! Met my daughter there for lunch but almost wish that I worked in her office park too so I could return here for more lunches!“

“I absolutely love this restaurant. Their brunch is amazing. It would be a great place for a romantic date.“

“Stopped by today,ham and cheese croissant that was great. Only problem was my dog was trying to intercept bites which created a dicey ,situation,but he got some and was quite happy.“

“I’m wondering what the policy is when entering Sam’s Club, in relation to the employees there greeting n checking cards. I was there this morning and I walki in behind a couple ladies, they walked right pass the lady and she didn’t say nothing to either one and I’m right behind them and she stops me to ask me for my card!! Well what about the 2 that just just walked right in past you??? So I’m hoping someone from management can shed a lil light on this matter…..Am I being profiled here???“

“The price was different than what’s posted online so that needs to be updated but what I got was a quality cup of oatmeal To-go. The fruit was fresh and she made the oatmeal consistency perfectly, added milk with no extra charge so to me it was worth $10 with all of that fruit. I’m here for a short work trip and I’m not finding quality in this part of downtown so it’s likely that I will be back here again. I also had a cortado earlier and it was perfection. On top of that the service was nice, they were friendly and kind, just what you need when you’re away from home.On another occasion I got breakfast and it was beautiful and cooked perfectly. I love this place and the two ladies who run it, they’ve grown warmer and more personable the more I frequent their cafe, I love their hospitality and I’m grateful for it.“

“This food spot is outstanding. From the staff behind the counter and the amazing cashier! Food is the best in town and I cant wait to bring my out of town family here someday for a family lunch reunion. It comes with an amazing view of the outdoors and beautiful patio!“

“Such a great coffee shop! The Cafe de Olla is amazing, and the empanadas and guava rolls were equally as impressive! To top it off, the owner is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. I mentioned that I had kids, and she took the time out of her day to show me around the building and told me all about the art museum’s exhibits (the cafe currently shares a space with the Cleveland Art Museum’s Community Arts Center) that she thought my kids might enjoy. I can’t wait to see all of the additional offerings when the new location opens!“

“A great place for a leisurely, late breakfast or lunch or brunch !!! The food is always good, beautifully presented, and the service can't be beat. Not your typical eatery - both the Café & the Owner are very interesting ! I have been a customer for more than a few years, and can recommend it on many enjoyable visits & meals !“

“Love this place! Don't sleep on them, everything they have to offer you is delicious!“

“The staff at the Koffie Cafe were so kind and helpful when my teenager got sick from biking in 88 degree. They offered napkins, water, and a cool place to recover. My other teenager loved the atmosphere and the drinks. Thanks for being a great community partner and for looking out for your neighbors. Can't wait to come back soon!“

“They are located at the very back of the Utilities building. You have to enter thru the front of the utilities building and walk to the back. It’s very cute and comfy. We walked here on our way to the Rock\\u0026Roll Hall of Fame. I had the wheat French Toast, eggs and pork sausage.“
