| - I finally made it to Gypsy Bean for the first time last week, and I wish I had tried it sooner!
I very rarely have a sweetened or flavored coffee drink, but their menu of unique "passport drinks" was calling to me...and as much as I enjoy a good Cleveland autumn, the "Tropics" was tempting me. I asked the barista, who was very cheerful, how sweet the drink was. He told me it would be pretty sweet, but he could go easy on the syrups, which would lessen the sweetness but lessen the flavor as well. I told him I would give it a try. This was a great drink! It had plenty of coconut flavor and was pleasantly sweet.
After spending a couple hours here, getting some work done at my window seat while listening to their really good selection of music, I decided to pick up a few pastries to take home for my family before I left. I got a sfogliatella (no, I don't know how to pronounce that...) which was a crispy phyllo-dough pastry filled with cheese, a snicker doodle cookie, a chocolate cookie, and a pumpkin roll, and everything was delicious!
Gypsy Bean is a great cafe with some tasty food and drinks and a friendly attitude. I will definitely be back here soon!
