Family Room Coffee & Bake Shop

As I step inside, my shoulders instantly relax. Sunlight pools around mismatched tables where laptops sit half-open next to cups, their owners absorbed in books or conversation. This place isn't just about caffeine; it is a quiet hum.

This was my first time. Pretty cool concept since we don’t have many places to just lounge with a friend in Central Ohio. I got the cinnamon roll, which was surprisingly tasty. Something that could’ve been better was friendliness by the staff. The cashier did not smile not one time or look happy to be there and it almost felt like I was bothering her by giving her my order. It makes me feel uncomfy about going back.

Large shop that provides a variety of bever6and small selection of snacks. Very large space to hang out including lots of couches. May be a good after school spot. Variety of board games and toddler toys available. Tried the cinnamon roll and chocolate chip cookies both were good. Plenty of parking.

A little noisy for a work conversation or workspace. Great service. I recommend the Chai latte.

I woud highly recommend this place to anyone! Shout out to the gentleman in the white hoodie who was working yesterday evening during bingo night. He is such a kind soul and an amazing person. So kind and gracious. Happy to see people like him exist. Thank you so much again. This place is really great for families.

Tried for the first time today! Absolutely love this place!!! Great food! Great atmosphere! A place to bring your family to have breakfast, play board games or just escape from the daily work grind! I also picked up some food for my office staff and they enjoyed the bagels and cinnamon rolls! My personal favorite was the Strawberries & Cream Latte! We will be back! Next time I’ll be bringing my family!!

We’re at the start of a road trip and, as is our tradition, we always stop at Family Room Coffee & Bake Shop!

Stopped by this morning for a hot mocha made with almond milk and their breakfast sandwich on an English muffin with chicken sausage, and it was outstanding. The place was pretty packed even at midmorning on a weekday, which is always a good sign. The sandwich came hot right off the grill, fresh, flavorful, and really hit the spot for breakfast. The English muffin had a nice toasted finish, the egg was cooked just right, and the chicken sausage gave it a great savory bite.

The hot mocha was smooth, rich, and comforting, the perfect match for a cool morning. Friendly atmosphere, great food, and a cozy neighborhood coffee shop feel. Definitely an eggcellent way to start the day.

This review is delivery based. I know I will sound like a Karen, so be it. I was trying to find coffee delivery that didn't use Uber, Grubhub or DoorDash because I don't like how those companies do business. I know much of a unicorn it is to find a place like that but Family Room Coffee kept coming up so I tried it. Paid the service fee, the delivery fee, AND tipped. The text I got was from Uber. I was so angry. The delivery driver tried to hand me someone's medication! Insisted he had the right address and I had to show him my order! He did eventually go out and come back in with 2 drinks, both of which were brown. I ordered one coffee and one strawberry drink so I was NOT expecting what looked like 2 coffees. One of them is vaguely fruit flavored but I have never ordered from this place before so I have no idea if this is just how they make drinks or if the driver messed up yet again. This was an overpriced, miserable experience. The owners need to make it clearer on their site that delivery is through Uber. I would love to find a place where the $ I spend goes to the employees than a major company like Uber. I was not pleased with the quality of the drinks either but I wouldn't write a review about that since I was taking a risk.

Super loud, so if you need to work this is not the place for you lol. However if you want to bring your kids and let them unwind a little. I feel this is more of an environment for a group or children/family setting.

Food/drink quality is mediocre for prices charged. I like the theme though.

Met a group of women for coffee, its a welcoming space. The children friendly establishment was accommodating to everyone. I didn't get to order any, but I will come back for another meeting.
