Chai latte
Aria J.

The food is fresh and the staff is kind. I can tell why they have so many accolades. Rare to find a breakfast spot that can do it all. The vibe is casual, this place could be your next weekly tradition. Prices are fair. My recommendation try the home made jam, you won't regret it. It may sound like a lot packed into it, but don't let that deter you.

Baked goods
Amy J.

Delicious pecan crusted bacon. Unique and absolutely fantastically creamy and savory baked eggs. The "canoe wreck" was a conglomeration of tofu bits, onion, large potato chunks, and some sort of curry or otherwise Indian inspired thin sauce. It was truly a pile of food. Can't say I appreciated it due to the lack of actual tofu chunks and how it all glommed together into a mildly spicy curry type mix. Not appealing to me. The toast and bits of fruit on the side were nice. As usual they had multiple delectable bakery offerings such as a thin mint brownie and various cookies and mousse type desserts.

shipwreck
Ethan F.

Came here on a Saturday morning. Ordered the waffles and the shipwreck. Also ordered the Lucky's signature latte which was very big and sort of sweet. The portion sizes were nice and very filling. I would say the toast is a little bit on the oily side. The jam used on the waffles were also pretty sweet. Overall, I would come back here again probably one of the better brunches I've had. I also like that all of the ingredients are locally sourced. The wait on a Saturday morning for two people wasn't too long and the servers were very nice. The interior was a little bit cramped, but it only added to the cozy feel of the restaurant.

This place is straight out of a Hallmark movie. SO cute and the staff were so friendly. This is a farm to table restaurant and our waitress was very knowledgeable about the food and ingredients used. I got the Biscuits and the Turtle Latte and both were to die for. Probably one of the best breakfast/brunch spots! Excited to come back and try their vast selection of baked goods and lunch menu.

Out to celebrate a birthday and had to check out this highly rated breakfast spot and it did not disappoint. The staff was very welcoming and the food was delicious and the s'mores latte was a great way to warm up the cold day. Best latte ever

I'm sorry to report that Lucky's is ABSOLUTELY worth the hype! We went on a rainy day, so there was no wait and we were seated right away. The service was fast and the workers were friendly. The food was phenomenal. I got the waffles and they were cooked very well. Light, fluffy, the homemade whipped cream was so good, and the strawberry rhubarb topping was to die for. The coffee was tasty, and the biscuits were delicious too. Overall rating: 5/5 stars What an amazing experience, there's not much else to say. I'll definitely be returning.

Cute little cafe in the heart of Tremont. Food is always great and was even featured on Diners Drive In's and Dives. Service is always friendly but they do get slammed, so just enjoy the coffee or tea and enjoy a relaxing morning.

We walked in at 11:40am on a Sunday and were told about 35 minute wait. (We gave our number and they called when our table was ready.) There didn't seem to be a waiting area inside so we walked around the neighborhood a bit. We were pleasantly surprised when only 11 minutes later we were called to be seated! From being seated at 11:52am... our food didn't get delivered until 1pm (not a typo). Our server was lousy. We asked for water 3x and never got it. We ended up walking to our car and bringing in our water bottles. He did acknowledge us eventually and took our drink orders. We were told that he'd take the drink order then the food a little later. When he took food orders, he didn't write them down. He had to come back to our table several minutes later to confirm our order before ringing it up. We saw him return to other tables to ask them to repeat their orders, too. We watched another table in his section repeatedly ask for water. We saw a table change their mind after waiting so long before being acknowledged. We watched him interact with a table (who had been warned of how slow he worked) tell him that she wanted to order both her drinks and food all at once. He flat out told her NO. So she just ordered food. It was a very frustrating environment to be in, as we saw other tables getting much better/quicker service from other servers and watched him not seem to care. We told ourselves that we would leave if we didn't get our food by a certain time. Then I convinced my husband to wait 5 more minutes. At 1pm it finally came out. (The potatoes weren't cooked as requested, but there was no way we were waiting any longer, and we received an item we hadn't ordered and sent back. Perhaps if our order was written down, this could have been avoided.) The bacon was delicious. We both enjoyed our food (was it really good or were we just starving, idk). The menu items were unique and sounded great. I probably wouldn't opt to revisit Lucky's (based on this experience).

Shipwreck (hash browns, eggs, veggies, bacon, cheddar) served with come toast and fruit
Julie C.

Stopped by Lucky's in Cleveland to load up on carbs before a marathon. The food was excellent! I got the Shipwreck (eggs, toast, etc.), and my husband had the waffles. The bacon was delicious but extremely crunchy. And a special shoutout to the coffee: it was huge! Definitely the biggest cup I've ever been served.

I absolutely love Lucky's cafe for breakfast. Located in the heart of Tremont this quaint restaurant is a true gem. My friends and I went for a girls brunch on an early Sunday morning. We arrived within 5 minutes of them opening and we were able to walk right in and be seated immediately. Parking was available on the street but the spots get taken fast so prepare to walk if you have to. All the staff were so welcoming and attentive. Our waitress was so sweet and took great care of us. The food is so fresh and delicately crafted. I ordered the smothered cheddar biscuits from tv lol they were truly a star of the menu to me! A must try for sure. I also had a fresh cinnamon roll and that was tasty too. I will be back more often to try more menu items in the future. I rate this place a 9.5/10!

Grilled cheese special

Came on a Friday at lunch time and luckily was able to snag the last table. Super cute inside. The service was so good. I got the grilled cheese that was on special and loved it!

Popular brunch spot in tremont, known for their two Foodnetwork featured items (Biscuits and Lucky's Rueben) and their amazing cinnamon rolls. Their speciality coffees are also worth the hype! Get up early on a weekend and get in line for Lucky's Cafe! The wait normally isn't bad, and if there is a long wait, stop by a neighborhood coffee shop (Roasted, Civilizations) to grab a coffee. When the weather is nicer, their patio is also open, which allows for more seating! Stop by Lucky's if you haven't had a chance!!

I don't usually go for sweets at brunch, but I tried the waffle and it was absolutely amazing--crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and full of flavor. I thought I ordered hash browns, but they turned out to be more like oven-roasted potatoes--and honestly, I wasn't even mad because they were still incredible. Parking was surprisingly easy, and the staff were kind and welcoming. The coffee was just okay--nothing special--but everything else made up for it. Great spot for a cozy, satisfying brunch. I'll definitely be back! Like this review if it was helpful.

Ask the Community - Lucky's Cafe

Do you have a kid's menu?

On checking their website, I don't see a specific menu for kids. But maybe if you go in, they may be able to make a kid friendly portion for your son or daughter. It's worth a try or simply phone them during their open hours and ask.

Is this a place you get waited on?

Yes

BYOB for brunch?

Yes! We learned this the hard way. A lot of people apparently bring their own bottle of champagne and they order a pitcher of OJ to go with it.

It was topped with a thin layer of rhubarb jam that brought a nice tartness along with a dollop of sorghum butter and whipped cream, and served with Ohio maple syrup on the side. I could have easily had a whole stack of the pancakes. The staff was friendly, and though the place was busy, the service was efficient. Excited to come here again! Note - if you use a credit card, it does come with a 3% service fee.

After looking over the menu, we were pleasantly surprised by the variety of both vegan and non-vegan options available. In fact, if you ask, they have a separate vegan menu with tons of choices, making it easy for everyone in our group to find something appealing. The atmosphere has that classic small-town neighborhood bar feel--casual, comfortable, and full of local charm. The service was friendly, attentive, and quick, which made the experience even better. We ordered the vegan pierogi dinner and the meatloaf dinner. The vegan cheese in the pierogies wasn't our favorite, but the dish was still very flavorful and enjoyable overall. The meatloaf dinner was a generous portion and absolutely excellent--comfort food done right. Between the welcoming atmosphere, diverse menu, and great service, The Rowley Inn was a delightful find.

We were totally fine with that, went and grabbed a coffee from a local shop, and then returned to the restaurant. Food was great and the server was so kind! The reason for the 3-star review is because the hostess was very rude. She completely shattered an easy 5-star review. We had nine people in the family, and one was golfing. We intended to put in a takeout order for him but due to the 45-minute wait, he ended up finishing before we were even seated. We invited him to come along and then we were called to be sat. We ordered his meal for him prior to him arriving and this was still a major problem for the hostess. She basically threatened to move us back outside and told us we were "holding the table" even though we would have never done that. Instead of giving me the opportunity to explain to her we would have done takeout anyways had he not arrived(but he did because again, it was a 45 minute wait), she just continued to talk over me. It made all of us very uncomfortable and the first 10 minutes we felt very on edge and unwelcomed. She then did the same thing to our ninth person when they walked in the restaurant 5 minutes after. He had no idea what had already occurred and was also caught off guard. Most of us worked in this industry in the past, and we thought we were doing the right thing by letting her know. Thank you to everyone else who helped soften our experience. It was very appreciated. Every person who brought a dish to our table was extremely kind. We all had something different on the menu and there were no complaints!

It's tucked away in a residential area inside an old house, giving it a charm that's impossible to manufacture. The interior is unpretentious, cozy, and full of character... and maybe a few characters too. The barkeeps have plenty of personality. There are no robotic greetings or scripted welcomes here, just genuine hospitality from people who seem happy to be behind the bar. Whiskey dominates the spirits menu, but there's plenty else to choose from. And don't let the casual vibe fool you--you can absolutely get a serious cocktail here, expertly made and perfectly balanced. On the food side, if you've had one too many and need something substantial to soak up the drinks, may I suggest the Polish Platter?

It was seemingly cooked in the paper that it was served in so the top of the bread pieces were crunchy, the middle was softer and then everything else was completely stuck to the paper. I didn't get to eat about 1/3 of what I paid for and I had to work really hard for the other 1/3. Also, the bread had a very spicy taste. It must have been cinnamon and allspice, but it was entirely too much and very overpowering. It truly tasted like a spicy savory bread which is not what I was expecting or wanted. Monkey bread is usually gooey and sweet. This missed the mark, but that's okay. I'll certainly return for another treat soon. Also the bread was looking fire this day.
