The classic pancake with butter and maple syrup is also delicious. They also have a nice selection of baked goods on display and serve alcoholic drinks.

E&F is a clean, welcoming, community-forward coffee shop located in downtown Erie. It's the kind of…read moreplace where every detail feels intentional & inclusive, from the local vendors they highlight to the rotating art exhibits on the wall. The space itself is small enough to feel cozy with plenty of seating options, including high-top and low-top tables, two couches, and a bar along the front window, which is great for people who want to spend some time there. There are plenty of outlets and two private bathrooms, both stocked with sanitary products. Drink wise, you won't find an elaborate list of over the top designer lattes here but they do have a seasonal beverage or two and a variety of syrups (rose, lavender, caramel, etc) you can add to enhance your drink. I'm a sucker for their mocha. It's so rich and delicious without being heavy or overly sweet. They also have some baked goods & some of the best ice cream sandwiches I've ever had. Recently, Ember & Forge installed a free food pantry outside, another reflection of their deep commitment to our community. It's easy to feel good supporting a business like that.

Great spot to grab a quick coffee - they also had some fun bakery items. Service was lovely!read more

Great concept. Solid location. Lackluster impression. We…read morehave been telling our friends about Enrique's, since we've known them. We planned a weekend in Erie (from Northeast Ohio) and a stop here for lunch was intended to be a highlight. Imagine our shock, dismay and a bit of anger when we arrived to find Enrique's closed. Every app we checked showed them to be open. They were not... But a lot of other businesses were closed as well. Doesn't seem to make sense on a Saturday? The places that were open were not busy, so maybe it's a weekday spot... Hours should be posted accordingly. However, there were bright spots! The cheese steak place was cooking a delicious looking sandwich, when I walked by. Our friends really enjoyed their noodle bowls, as well. We decided to order from the Dominican restaurant and her food was AMAZING! Roasted pork, mixed rice and fried sweet plantains. Flavor was out of this world. The pizza place has a solid selection of drafts. I had a cider that was excellent.

What a GREAT space for the Erie community to come and support some really great restaurants!!! We…read morefound ourselves being envious of the space and wishing we had something like this back home.

I tried the Western omelet and the Gem city omelet which had blackberry jam, burnt ham and brie omelet, and wow, I didn't know I needed that in my life. Our server also recommended the special waffle with marmalade and champagne whipped cream, which quickly became my favorite (minus the champagne part ). Had a great time here and will definitely be back soon.

For apps, we tried the guacamole, which was refreshing, but the portion could be larger--it wasn't enough for the amount of chips. There were three of us, and we had to order two servings, and still had chips leftover. Honestly, it's not my number one choice, but it's a decent option for a casual weeknight dinner or apps. Service was impeccable.
