Rising Star is one of Cleveland's best coffee shops. Inside the Ohio City Firehouse in the newly appointed Hingetown.
To cut to the chase, I love their coffee. Not a lot of things on the menu I haven't tried. Some of my favorites include any of the Ethiopia blends or specialty grade stuff and the Ice Mocha since it's mixed with a little chocolate milk.
Personally, I prefer the slow pour over method, but I know a lot of people who love the taste of AeroPress. It's a preference thing. And Rising Star can add up, it's a little on the expensive side, but you get what you pay for and that's a quality cup of coffee.
