I'm so conflicted with my review of this place. I really…read morewanted to fall in love because of how spacious and cozy the interior is - and because of how friendly the staff was! But I'll start with the bad. I got an iced Americano. The espresso was fine, but there were so many coffee grounds in my drink that kept getting in my mouth with every sip. Also tried their iced matcha latte. If you're a fan of matcha, skip this place. Pretty sure they use pre-made matcha. They said it's already pre-sweetened when I was ordering because I asked for no sweetener or syrups. It wasn't very good :/ Finally I'm a sucker for home baked goods. So I got a blueberry muffin. It's definitely store bought. Tasted like the kind you can get from Walmart. Definitely not bad, just wasn't what I was hoping for. But the inside is beautiful. I would love to sit and stay a while if their drinks or pastries were any good. Also the staff were wonderful! So nice and welcoming. Honestly there are so many other coffee shops that are so much better. I probably won't be back sadly. Overall rating: 2.8/10

There's a small parking lot, which is nice!…read more This place was HUGE inside! Lots of different seating areas. Would be a great place to work from home. There aren't any food options, so just a heads up. (There are a few bakery items that the worker said they purchased from the grocery store.) I ordered a vanilla latte. They have three sizes: 12, 16, 20 oz. I asked how many espresso shots were in them, and the worker said they all have 3 shots, no matter which size you order. Very odd. I asked what kind of bean they used, and the worker wasn't quite sure, but they weren't local or even a small business. Which is very disappointing to hear. My latte was very good though! And the place was so spacious. So for those reasons, I'd come again. But I'd never go out of my way to come here. Nothing too special !

Metropolitan Coffee is such a cute hidden gem tucked away in Old Brooklyn. You can really tell they…read morecare about quality--everything is made from scratch, even the flavor syrups, and they use Rising Star beans. The menu has some standout breakfast options you don't see often around here, like loaded grits (a rare Southern find in this area). The grits were absolutely amazing--definitely my new go-to breakfast craving. The blueberry cream cheese muffin totally lived up to the hype too: moist, sweet, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the seasonal strawberry mocha. The coffee itself was smooth and well-made, though the strawberry flavor was a bit subtle. The vibe is one of the best parts--lots of seating, a mix of people working and chatting, and the kind of cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. They also host yoga twice a week (Thursdays and Sundays) and fun events like game nights, which adds to the community feel. Definitely a spot worth lingering in.

That's a great perk for those who would rather support a local coffee shop rather than a chain but prefer not to get out of the car. I decided to go inside to grab breakfast and some coffee. The interior is cozy with lots of tables for a full days work or a quick coffee meeting. There's a small food menu with some hot options and pastries, as well as a few panini's and a salad for lunch. I got the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was absolutely delicious and hot. It had lots of flavor. Although the biscuit was tasty and fresh, it was served cold and the hot gravy couldn't completely take off the chill. This was an above average gravy though and I would def return for it. They serve Rising Star coffee and I got a lumberjack breve. My drink came out piping hot, which I appreciated and the flavor was on point. I believe the lumberjack was a combination of brown sugar, cinnamon, and maple. It was perfect for a cold winter day. I couldn't resist getting a little sweet treat, so I grabbed a brown butter chocolate chunk cookie at the suggestion of a barista. Another delicious choice. Honestly everything was great here. I would definitely frequent this place if I lived closer. The service was friendly and they worked pretty quickly, which I appreciated. My only minor pit was the box that my biscuits and gravy came in. Not really suitable for a hot soupy item.

Cafe Blanc is absolutely adorable. One of the most gorgeous and insta-worthy coffee shops I've ever…read morebeen to. It's also much larger than I expected and has a lovely patio out front with lots of tables. They have a large food menu with typical cafe eats as well as dinner entrees. I came for lunch on a Friday and got a tiramisu iced coffee (very good), as well as a mushroom crepe. The crepe could have been a little hotter, but it was tasty and the drink was good. Can't wait to go back to try more drinks and pastries.

I arrived and met 3 friends here on a weekday morning in May 2026 to work. We (2 guys and 2 ladies)…read moreall work remote so it was fun to meetup. We all visited Cafe Blanc for the first time and loved our experience especially the large (free) parking lot. We sat on the 2nd level towards the back. QUICK REVIEW (read this if you don't want to read this whole review): Try the potato pancakes. Great food and service. Slightly more elevated cafe. Busy during peak morning/afternoon hours and most likely less busy in the evenings. I have not been in the evening yet. Free parking lot and free wifi. FOOD - there are lots of food options to choose from for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They have sandwiches, salads, pizza, and pastries. I arrived around 10:20am so I wanted breakfast. I read that the croissants are okay but I haven't tried them. I ordered the potato pancakes, blueberry hibiscus tea (hot) as a dine-in order plus a slice of almond cake as a takeout order. The potato pancakes ($19) was delicious. It comes with 3 thick potato pancakes topped an egg on the center and with bacon bits spread all over. The potato pancakes also come with sour cream on the side which I didn't realize so I moved that to the side of my plate because I don't like or eat sour cream. I would order the potato pancakes again as a savory breakfast item but $19 is a little steep for the price. The blueberry hibiscus tea ($4) was a refreshing drink served on a mug. If you enjoy the combination of white tea leaves, rose hips, natural blueberry, and hibiscus then this tea is for you. I also ordered an almond cake slice ($6) but to go. The almond cake is a light and tasty cake with sliced/shaved almonds on top. SERVICE -- Friendly. Me and one of the shorter female employee had a nice laugh when I went down later in the day to order an almond cake. They started getting busy when I arrived after 10am on a weekday but I was able to walk right up to the front counter to order. The buzzer handed to me buzzed probably within 15-20 mins and I went down to get my order. I believe the tea that I ordered was ready first. Overall, I'll definitely be back. Prices are higher than a traditional cafe. The plus is that there is free wifi so it's a perfect spot to work on your laptop. The tables are big and the chairs are comfortable. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 99/250 total reviews in 2026 - 940 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 May 2026

I decided on the "Olive it a Latte" latte - a graza olive oil infused milk steamed with citrus pistachio simple syrup and poured over an espresso!! I was slightly scared after I ordered because I wasn't 100% sure about the flavor - but it was pretty good! Not my favorite ever but it was such a fun flavored latte to try!! - plus the guy who made my latte made it a point to show me the latte art before putting my to go lid on and that made my day! they were so kind!!

This one feels a little less cozy, maybe because it's on a busier street and has less seating, but the vibes are still great. Menus are exactly the same. I got a fabulous pistachio and cardamom bevvie, as well as my beloved ham toastie. The service was absolutely amazing and I struck up a great convo with the ladies who assisted me. Six Shooter is hands down my favorite coffee shop in Cleveland for both the coffee (grounds are delicious and reasonably priced) and the good vibes. Really awesome and welcoming neighborhood feel.

The donuts I had were packed with a lot of cream so if that's your thing (which it totally is for me) you're in luck. Some of the outer donut was a bit dry but that may just be because I got there later.

There is also the main area (center part where you order) that has tables and chairs which is situated when you first walk in and then there is a back area towards the left that can be used as well. So, there are 2 back sections. DRINKS -- They sell matcha, tea, and coffee. I ordered a cup of Storehouse black tea with honey ($4 price, I think). I think the employee added too much honey in my tea because my stomach started hurting a little so I couldn't finish it but that's okay. I later got a mug of warm water which helped soothe my stomach. The cup of tea though is quite expensive but I like to support local businesses (Storehouse Tea is a Cleveland business). FOOD -- I also ordered a Rosemary bagel ($4) with a side of butter (.50 cents). The Rosemary bagel was delicious which isn't surprising because the owners make their own bagels. If you work remote then this coffee shop is for you as they have free wifi and plenty of tables to use. They have lots of chairs and tables laid out in three different sections. The music isn't as loud like most coffee shops in the area so I appreciated that. The back area towards the right only has 2 outlets available but thankfully, I got one to use. If you come with a laptop, make sure your battery is charged or find another seat where there is an outlet. TIP -- They sell packaged coffee to go, some packaged biscuit mix, and cute notebooks.

The cafe is larger than expected. Spans far back where they have a tv set up, carom board game, and an area with a number of board games you can play while you dine. They have a large variety of drinks ranging from chai, lattes, boba, spritzers, mocktails, and plenty of desserts. The staff didn't seem too informed about the menu items or drinks, which was a bit disappointing. I relied on some online reviews to decide on my order. The saffron karak chai was very good and comes out piping hot. I would prefer if they served this in an actual mug (rather than paper cup) especially if dining in. It was filled to the brim and spilled, not to mention putting a steaming hot drink in a paper cup. Nonetheless, the chair was good. More folks eventually started to come in so I can imagine this place gets noisy as it fills up. There was a women's group meeting all sitting in a circle on the floor in the front of the cafe. Perhaps they host group events? Not sure if there were any vegan options or egg free desserts, but check out the chai.
