I got a flat white with vanilla and a piece of their blueberry coffee cake. I wasn't the biggest fan of the texture of the coffee cake.

I ran an errand and left my cup in the car and came back out in my coffee was still pretty hot. I wouldn't go out of my way to get this coffee, but if I'm passing by, I definitely would stop back in

We stopped by for a warm drink before getting some outdoor time at a nearby park. I ordered the chai latte and a giant chocolate chip cookie to share with my toddler cousin. Big fan of the chai latte, which can be hard to nail down. This drink had a great balance of flavors between the spice, vanilla, and cream. I'd easily return to explore more of their menu.

I've always found a close parking spot on Taylor. Oh, I also bought their bean so that I could make my own flat white at home. The bean is really good, I don't have a commercial machine, I only have a consumer version, but it's still really, really delicious. I forget which bean they use, but if you ask the person at the counter, they will tell you because that is how I found out. I highly recommend Rising Star. I've been to two locations and they are both stellar. (oops did I really just say star and stellar? That was an accident, but I'm not changing it.)

You guys know me, I am rarely a Grumpy Gus in my reviews. I give more stars than I probably should…read more But I can only give the Cleveland Heights location of Rising Star Roasters 3 stars because I have more negatives than positives from my August 2026 visit on a busy Sunday morning. I will not give it less than 3 stars because the interior decor is lovely, there's ample space to sit inside, and the baristas were efficient. There are also a lot of local small businesses selling their wares in here as well like Jeff's Candy, Cleveland Vegan, Stem Soap Co, etc. So, I love coffee and I am also not picky. I even like gas station coffee more than I should! But the prices here are too high and the beans weren't good enough to justify the cost. I got a cold brew ($5.75). Normally, I add almond milk and sugar free syrup to my cold brews. But I balked at the $1.00 almond milk cost and there are absolutely NO sugar free syrups of any kind offered here! None! So I added a packet of splenda and some of the free oat milk to make it tolerable. Not bad after that but not great. My boyfriend had better luck with his iced Chai ($5.25). He did pay to add almond milk and the spice in the drink was nice and strong. But the most egregious error here was the awful blueberry vegan scone we bought ($4). It was a hockey puck of weirdness. The berries in the scone were the best part of the scone. Too bad there were only like 5 berries total. The batter just wasn't good and it was bright yellow from the Earth Balance butter. It was crazy busy when we visited so obviously, this is the preferred coffee shop for many of the locals here. But I think this won't end up on my list of coffee shops to come back to. Life is too short to drink mediocre coffee!

If you're planning to check it out, there is parking out front and alongside the building.

The space is cozy and lends itself to a quick grab-and-shop. Would recommend for those looking for a local coffee option, especially if you need coffee making supplies or local snacks to pair with your coffee.

Each of us were asked to bring something from our hometown, so I brought "Coffee Bill", since William McKinley is such a big part of Canton's history. For the conference, we stayed at a historic hotel that was beautiful, but it had terrible coffee. Enter Cherry Blend. Every single one of them thanked me for bringing this coffee, because all of us brewed that in our rooms, instead of what the hotel provided. I am going to use their coffee in my small business and we came up with some cool ideas about how to do so. Undoubtedly this is one of the most knowledgeable couples you will ever meet when it comes to coffee. We had such an interesting dialogue about the sourcing, roasting, and marketing of coffee. I have now tasted three different blends and I loved each unique one. When in question, be sure to support local businesses, especially THIS one.
