We stopped in this bakery while passing through Cleveland. The sweets looked delicious, but we didn't come for sweets— we came for coffee. My hot chocolate was good, and the coffee was decent. I left off star because the coffee was made in a Keiureg. I feel like a bakery should have fresher ground and brewed coffee.Our friend got a chicken salad sandwich. It looked really simple— but then when we ate it it was absolutely delicious! There were signs for a spaghetti lunch special which we just missed. I imagine it would have been awesome, even if a bakery is an odd place to order spaghetti.The service here is great! It is so quiet and friendly and charming and peaceful. The ambient is really clean and kind of homey. I definitely would like to stop by here again with friends if we come through the area again.
