We have friends who normally work remotely from Open Door and they say it's typically quiet. Unfortunately for my wife and I, on the day we visited it was packed with a group of loud high school-aged girls who were very noisy chatting and clapping...I couldn't wait to get my coffee and get out. There were some adults in there who had their laptops open and I'm sure were trying to concentrate but I don't see how while we were there. Nice place. We would like to give it another try when it's not so full of boisterous teens.

I came in on a weekend morning and as I expected, the place had a bit of a line as most good coffee…read morehouses should. The ambiance is nice with a variety of seating types and a large room. The coffee house has experienced baristas offering beautiful latte art and a variety of coffee selections. My challenges are the stocking of pastries and accompaying items wasn't the best, possibly when I happened to come in, with several things out of stock. Additionally, order management seemed a bit haphazard with my order getting lumped in with multiple others and not being produced in order of customers ordering. Bottom line, I think Heartwood is a good coffee shop overall, but doesn't have the stocking or efficiency of a coffee shop I would rate in top shops. If this doesn't worry you - definitely make a stop in here.

Everything she baked was scrumptious and homemade. At other tea places, I felt the pastries and apps were store bought. But she clearly made everything with love, and you could tell by the taste and presentation. We all got to pick out our own tea cups from a variety of beautiful sets. I would love to come back soon!

I met a friend here last Saturday. The tea house does not have a parking lot but there is some…read moreparking across the street near the park. The interior is very small and cozy. We made a reservation via email and the staff were quick to respond. The menu isn't large and tea choices were more limited than other tea rooms I've been to. I chose the mint tea and my friend got the chamomile. We each received our own small tea pot that had its own chamber inside to steep the tea. The pots weren't decorative but they got the job done well and I liked that I didn't have to strain the tea myself. We were allowed to pick out our own teacup and saucer. For lunch, I tried the broccoli salad with potato soup and herbed bread. My friend got the broccoli cheese quiche and soup. My salad didn't have much dressing on it - I would have preferred more but I believe it was a premade salad. The soup was ok as well. She said her quiche was tasty. Unfortunately I forgot to grab pictures. I would rate the food 3/5 but the tea a 5/5. Overall, I think the tea house is a nice option considering there aren't many in the area and I'd try it again.

I love walking up Lock 29 to grab a drink to take along with me on my walks! Their parking lot is extremely difficult to deal with if there's some cars there, so I recommend parking down by all the shops & walking up! Easy access on the sidewalk, or you can cut off the trail like I do to get up there. It's worth the hassle!

A coffee shop that I can easily visit between hikes in a national park? Heck yes!…read more I stopped by the Peninsula Coffee House and Market during a weekend trip to Cuyahoga Valley National Park this year. I was lucky and snagged a parking space in front of the business; their parking is VERY limited and I'm surprised I didn't have to use a lot that was across a bridge. (Note that the bridge is right by the coffee shop, so it wouldn't have been a long trek at all.) I ordered a Butterscotch Latte and a Sausage, Biscuit & Egg breakfast sandwich; snagged a seat near the front of the store; and settled in for a relaxing break between my hikes. The coffee was excellent and the sandwich really hit the spot! While seating in the lower level is limited, I've learned reading other reviews that there is an outdoor patio and an upper level too. Their website mentions that they run a sundry market here too; however I didn't spend much time shopping in the interest of not stretching my wallet too far during my travels. I also didn't check out the wine cellar in the lower level. While this shop is little, it clearly has a lot to offer, and I am so glad I found it during my visit to Cuyahoga. I'd absolutely stop by again during future visits to the area...and I'd love to time my next visit so I can check out that wine cellar!

It's a cute cafe, with a delicious looking display case of baked goods and treats. You place your order at the counter and they bring your food to your table to eat. The menu features a large assortment of sandwiches, wraps, and subs! They also have breakfast, soups, salads, and a large coffee menu. I got the USS New Jersey Battleship, which is described as huge a 15 inch sub that few can take down in one sitting. And I agree! Out came two huge subs, filled with toppings, that became my lunch and then my dinner. The New Jersey had capicola, salami, pepperoni, cheese, shredded lettuce and banana peppers. A really great sub for less than $10! A friend tried the turkey club, which was a visually quite stunning three bread sandwich. Another friend really enjoyed their breakfast sandwhich. And the root beer floats were three huge scoops of vanilla ice cream and a bottle of root beer. Overall, this place is a total gem, and I will absolutely be back next time in the area for the metroparks!

We were greeted by Jennifer, one of the owners, she was friendly and very helpful. We ordered from the counter and the food was brought to the table. They offer plenty of cake, pies, cookies, muffins and scones. The coffee and tea selection is huge and fresh, only downfall is the styrofoam cup. We ordered sandwiches, I had an everything bagel with double egg and my husband opted for the USS Pennsylvania, a chicken Philly with a side of coleslaw...it was huge we had to do a double take when it arrived at the table, literally two sub buns. Jennifer said it was a little Navy humor. We will definitely be back to order ice cream

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.
