48 Best Coffee Shops near Shaker Heights

“I have been extremely impressed with not just the store, but the employees. They have gone above and beyond to serve the customers and do it all with a smile and genuine kindness. Very impressed.“

“Today I reserved their front room for my husbands "Celebration of Life". I had asked Courtney about reserving the room and catering with pastries and sandwiches. I wanted a small and quaint space for the event. Courtney and all of her employees were AWESOME!! They were so helpful and caring, it made the event go so well. I cannot thank Courtney enough for the awesome space and the good food!!! I would rent this space out again for any event!! Thank you Couchland!!“

“I love 7 Brew! Certainly, the beverages are delicious. But what amazes me is the volume of business they’re able to conduct out of this tiny island in the middle of a shopping center. And the prices they charge are premium! (That’s why I don’t come here very often). I imagine anyone in business would be interested in a model like this. Make sure your public-facing employees are neat, polite, and service-oriented, also be sure your product is high-quality.

Most restauranteurs will tell you that the price you pay is partially for “real estate.“ In other words, somebody’s got to pay for the atmosphere and decor, at least. But 7 Brew has none of that yet they levy a fairly harsh “tax“ for the privilege of purchasing there.

I suppose the drive-in/drive out feature deserves some compensation. But again, I don’t come here often because I would expect the pricing would reflect the lack of amenities offered. (note, for all my complaining I still return every three months or so.)“

“A huge THANK YOU to TIFFANY in the bakery today! She worked with me with ordering my Son’s birthday cake for Saturday. I came in short notice to order. Great customer service and just a kindhearted person. Thank you Tiffany!“

“Such a special cool little place! We stopped in for a quick breakfast while waiting for an appointment time nearby - had a delicious breakfast and delicious coffee with great service from the owner’s son.

“My first time at BFC was about 2 years ago. I went in today and met the Owner Jennifer and her daughter Jackie. They both made me very welcome to their family restaurant. It truly was nice to see people that actually enjoy their job. It is a cozy restaurant with an old fashioned flare.I got the breakfast special 2 scrambled eggs,crispy bacon, and Texas toast. And a cup of coffee and then later a Chi to go. The food was all cooked fresh and nice and hot when Jackie served it to me along with my hot coffee.It was all absolutely delicious. The prices are very reasonable and the service was beyond great. Do yourself a favor and stop in sometime and support this local delicious family owned restaurant. And oh yeah a big bonus If you live within 5 miles of their restaurant they will actually deliver your food for FREE.“

“Fun, funky cafe where the food is fresh, smoothies are banging and the service is friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Fiendly and serve great coffee-- most importantly. Seating is exceptionally comfy, space airy and welcoming with soft music/not overpowering. I will say, if you guys could keep your heat up a little higher when it's colder out, would deifnitely visit more--it's difficulty to work when freezing.“

“Just a great place to enjoy coffee and either study, read, or have some quality time with friends. I spent many hours here when I was in college mainly studying or discussing subjects A-Z. The place has an intellectual open minded thinker vibe and I love it. Coffee and desserts are good as well. Its open and airy in summer and cozy in winter. Great energy as well.“

“My daughter and her friend picked up a coffee gelato for me. It was Divine. Smooth and creamy without any artificial taste. I will be going back again and sometime the stack was wonderful so friendly that you felt like you were having dessert with your family.“

Service was super friendly, prices were totally reasonable, and the banoffee waffle was so good, the waffle itself was so perfectly crispy and delicious. He brought us samples of their Chai (his mother's recipe ❤) and we were floored. Such a perfect ending to a great evening. Absolutely make a stop here!“

“I don’t write reviews often, but this place absolutely deserves it.

From the moment you walk in, you can tell this isn’t just another coffee shop—it’s part of the community. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the kind of place where you can settle in for a few minutes or a few hours and feel completely at home.

The coffee is consistently excellent—rich, smooth, and clearly made with care, winter, spring, summer and fall! Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup on the go or trying something new off the menu, you can taste the quality. And the owners? Genuinely some of the kindest people you’ll meet. They remember faces, take the time to chat, and make every visit feel personal.

What really stands out is how much heart goes into this place. Supporting a locally owned business like this feels good, especially when they put so much back into the customer experience.

If you’re anywhere nearby and haven’t stopped in yet, you’re missing out. This is the kind of spot that turns first-time visitors into regulars.“

“Located inside Whole Foods, Allegro is a tiny coffee shop with just the essentials that you need to start your day. Allegro coffee has been sustainably sourcing and roasting coffee in Colorado. They are committed to quality with a focus on ethical standards and environmental stewardship as evidenced by their variety of brews and paper straws. The coffee bar includes coffee and teas (hot or cold) juices, smoothies, bowls and they have a self serve organic açaí bowls. The service is fast, friendly and accommodating. The shipping carts at While Foods even have a cup holder for your brew. There is seating outside and up front. I would recommend.“

“I usually like the fish sandwiches but today they were dry .... please try harder“

“Let me tell you this is a absolute delight of a find. We were originally planning to go to the typical hole in the wall up in Cleveland, but it totally slipped our minds that it was the Asian festival. Which btw an absolute nightmare for local Asian dinning. But the food here is fantastic, especially the pho. Tho heads up if you get a hot item, there no ac so be ready to sweat a bit. It was absolutely worth it tho.“
