Hello, the Root! I love you! I wish you were closer to me!
The Root is a beautiful coffee shop that serves lots of local produce (and sources its coffee from Rising Star Roastery newly located in Ohio City) and delicious treats. I love their vegan whoopie pies, and when I'm feeling decadent (which is most times!), I'll pair it with a small iced mocha. Sugar overload but it almost feels healthy because the whoopie pie is vegan...right?! Right!
The space is wonderful and I'd love to be able to hang out here every day. However, it's a bit of trek to bike ride over there as often as I'd like, but whenever I'm in Lakewood, I HAVE to stop by the Root.
