I've been by this place for years thinking it was some old place past it's prime. Then I stumbled into the OH City one, enjoyed myself, and figured I'd try this one. Even walking up to it today though, I wasn't even sure it was open.
The inside thankfully is much brighter and more lively than the storefront. There are varied seating options for groups, couples and solo visitors. It's really spacious and honestly a nicer setting than downtown's largest Starbucks (that being the 14th St one I think). This is definitely the nicest downtown coffee shop to sit and work in. (It's just as nice as Pour but perhaps more cozy).
I didn't do anything fancy here, just a drip coffee as the line was pretty long (but they moved it along a lot faster than Starbucks' baristas). The coffee I really enjoyed. Not sure which one I actually got as the signage was poor and there weren't any options to pick from, but it was good - definitely worthy of competition with Cleveland's newest coffee shops.
There's a big bakery case as well. Next time I'll have to get something and also next time I'll have to try an espresso....the dirty cup bin was full of 5 espresso cups which seemed a lot to me so they must be tasty.
