“What a cute lil shop. I have wanted to try this coffee shop for a minute, but I've always worked past two. Today I finally got my chance. Ordered a Lavender Cold Brew. It was delightful. And only $4! The cup is compostable, truly, and as a gardener I simply love that. I told the cashier it was my first time and she was so polite and welcoming and helpful when ordering. Lovely plants too. I will be back.“

“love this spot looks corporate but feels like home. Good people, great food and the have private rooms..“

“I was working in the area and happened upon this gem! The barista was amazing (I wish I got his name so I could shout him out) and the espresso was just what I needed. Such a quaint, chill vibe and I love it!! Would definitely recommend and will be back when I’m in the area.“

“Good customer service and wonderful foods“

“they even have vegan whip!“

“absolutely love upper cup coffee but I do miss them featuring local artists inside their shop. I thought that was such a cool idea. Any plans to bring that back?“

“Tiny, tiny spot in Clintonville best suited for drinks to-go. The coffee is very good, I had a lovely flat white which was textured well and had a robust flavor. The menu is limited, I believe it’s all a one man operation. I was surprised by the line out the door on a Friday at 10:30AM. The barista is very friendly and struck up a conversation with every customer while he made their drink. It was fun to watch him make the drinks, I’ve never seen an espresso set up quite like what he had going.“

“The french toast matcha was the best matcha I’ve had. I also love the branding, the ethical practices of the company, and the vibes of the space. The lounge area isn’t too big but I love how they have games. Their oven wasn’t working when I went so I couldn’t try the food.“

“The staff are super friendly and they helped me pick out a drink? The Somali Shaah tea was so delicious! I will definitely be returning to try some of their pastries and coffee next time!“

“This is one of my favorite places!! I love setting up my computer and making this my office on Fridays for a change of scenery! Such a cool, laid back vibe! And not to mention, delicious coffee and food!!!“

“First time ever visiting and my sister and I had a great time! We both had iced Spicy Cats (chai latte) which were great, and the overall experience was really enjoyable. The cat lounge was clean and spacious for cats and visitors, and the staff present were very kind and friendly. It’s very obvious that the people here understand and respect cats, and most importantly, they CARE about them!! Thanks so much for a wonderful visit!“

“Wonderful place to have coffee and enjoy the morning!!“

“Coffee was AMAZING and the staff was very kind. My friend said it was the BEST matcha she’s ever had. And I really appreciated the prices— they don’t overcharge.

As a breastfeeding mother, I hope they add decaf espresso in the future so I can come back more often 🥰“

“Cozy but also cramped
And for how busy it was, the staff still made time to talk to me while making my drink.
Great espresso especially given the price. It's cheaper than some well / coffee \ pot stuff. It's a little on the acidic side than what I'm used to but still really good.“

“This was my actual first time at Brioso Coffee. But I’m very familiar with them. I attended the Columbus Coffee Festival the last few years, and I tried their coffee and it was a win for me. So, I guess you can say, I was more than happy to go to one of their locations. Like, finally! And downtown, of all places. Very convenient. I will be going more often. The maple latte is delicious!“

“The egg sandwich is truly amazing. Perfect!!!“

“Lovely place to just sit and write!“

“I wondered why there is always a line of cars for this place. I mean it's coffee. How much better could it be than anywhere else? Well, the coffee is absolutely delicious!
Update: the coffee is good but I've been in line now for 15 minutes. That is not acceptable.“

“If this place were located in the suburbs, I would be in immense trouble because the bevs (both coffee and alcohol), the books, and the overall cozy vibes could easily rapture me as a regular.“

“Great cup of Joe and the staff is super wonderful!“

“I love the Chocolate Cafe. I have come here many times, most recently to surprise a friend for her birthday. I ordered a full size Lemon and Berry Marscarpone cake. She loved it!! I loved! And there was a large amount to take home and share with her family. We also enjoyed some martinis and I took home some chocolate covered strawberries. 10/10“

“Had my first experience at One Line today and it won’t be my last. The staff was friendly and helpful. I ordered a pour over and it was delish! It’s a nice place with a very welcoming atmosphere.“

“Coffee is top notch! Drinks including turtleneck/gold chain and espresso martini equally as great! A new fav spot for my husband and I to chill.“

“First time eating there after reading so many great reviews. They weren’t wrong. Love the food and friendly service“

“love the Chai latte great people great service great products“

“Thrilled for another round of YMT coffee: three pounds delivered within hours of my online order, with this note on the Mexico roast: “Thank you Daniel — All three coffees roasted today”! It doesn’t get better than that.“

“This lovely coffee and chocolate shop in Short North opened early and provided great coffee for me in the morning of game day. Free caramel apple samples were available, but it tasted too sweet. The almond chocolate was decent without too much sugar. The room was comfy and warm. WiFi was fast. Service was excellent. Definitely a great place to hang out or study.“

“Absolutely love this coffee shop. High quality coffee as a snob I fully approve. The atmosphere is wonderful a great place to have a meet up with friends or just go to study alone. The staff is so friendly. Could not recommend this place enough!“

“This cozy little coffee shop in Clintonville has quickly become one of my go-to spots when I need to get a bit of work done or just take a break and recharge. The coffee is consistently solid, with a nice variety of brews and espresso drinks that never disappoint. They also have a small but well-curated selection of pastries that really hit the spot—especially if you catch them when they’re fresh. I’ve tried several and have yet to find one I didn’t enjoy.

The service is always friendly and efficient. The staff seems genuinely happy to be there, which adds to the overall vibe of the place. They keep things moving quickly, so even if there’s a bit of a line, you’re never waiting long. Parking is surprisingly easy for Clintonville, which is a huge plus, and once you’re inside, it’s a comfortable space temperature-wise—cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

If I had to point out one downside, it would be the seating. It’s not the most spacious layout, and some of the chairs/tables aren’t ideal for longer visits. That said, the fast and reliable WiFi makes up for it. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!“

“Best, chocolate frosted brownies ever! We could not tell they were gluten free or dairy-free. So delicious! We will be back!!“

“It’s the best I’ve had in desserts“

“We're a Church (Buckeye Catholic) and we like to switch back and forth between BD and Krispy Kreme for our Sunday donuts. When we showed up at KK today, the machine was down so they didn't have donuts for us. I jumped on the BD app at 926am and ordered 20 dozen donuts and the app said they would be ready at 940am. When we arrived at 945am, we were told that they typically require 24 hours for large ordered. Everyone hustled and got the donuts for us at 10am which worked out ... we're VERY thankful. BTW, the kids at Buckeye Catholic LOVE Buckeye Donuts!!!!“

“Amazing service. Erin treats everyone who walks in like family. Couldn't ask for a better environment!“

“We were looking for a last minute cake for the 2 year old in our life. This bakery was recommended a while ago on a Facebook page so I thought we’d give it a try after looking at what they offered. The staff was amazing and made sure they asked if it was for a birthday. They put a chocolate ‘Happy Birthday’ candy on top and gave us candles, a cake cutter and matches. Really a thoughtful gift to help celebrate her birthday. She LOVED the chocolate cloud cake since it mixed her favorites both berries and chocolate. We can’t wait to go back and try the other yummy options.“

“Bake me happy isn’t just good for a gluten free bakery, they’re great for a bakery. Very faithful reproductions of gluten based baking that taste amazing, have amazing texture. We threw a party with a few celiac guests and had no problem proudly and safely serving them these amazing baked goods. Thanks so much!“
