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.

I was gleefully wrong. Same great service. Same wonderful, plentiful menu. Same excellence and quality. Same chippers! My sandwich was Giant, perfectly crafted , fresh and ready in the appropriate amount of time. I was so happy to enjoy my lunch there and see it was still bustling with patrons.

I don't frequent Starbucks often, so I typically like to go inside and look and see what I want to try so as not to hold up the line of regulars. The inside was so warm and cozy. The restroom was very clean. The gentleman who placed my order was patient and kind. I chose the spinach feta wrap which was served piping hot. I also chose the brown sugar iced expresso with oatmilk. Both were delicious and made me feel fancy. While I waited, I read the maps that mentioned places around the world that they sourced coffee from. When I entered there were only two customers inside with me and it was refreshing not feeling rushed to order. I will definitely return.

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. I love supporting this business.

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 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 !

There's lots of tables and chairs for meetings and to get work done. I didn't check the outlet situation, but plenty of the tables are around the walls, so hopefully there are enough outlets. I also liked that they had a good amount of countertop seating around the coffee bar. They have a few savory pastries and also sweet treats. They roast Heartwood Coffee beans and have a good amount of syrups, as well as seasonal drinks. I got a cardamom and honey cafe au lait and the spinach and feta pastry. You can ask for them to warm it up a bit which was nice. I'm not sure where the pastry was from or if they make their own, but it was fine. The coffee drink was great. Noise level was fine.

This isn't the only Dunkin on Earth, but it is the one we got. They run a tight ship here. They support civil rights. The closest gas station to this spot has trouble with civil rights.

I tried both the Promised Land Latte (cinnamon and honey) and the seasonal special Cowboy Cold Brew (cold brew with milk and sarsaparilla syrup). The Promised Land Latte was good, not too sweet, a little thin on the mouthfeel but overall good flavor. The Cowboy Cold Brew was such a treat: a combination I have never tried, but it worked surprisingly well. It was like a root beer and a cold brew were mixed together for a refreshing drink with very familiar yet unique flavor. It was also such a treat when I turned the cup around and saw the "yeehaw" written on it :-) I also tried the everything bagel with honey brie walnut cream cheese, and whoever is supplying Cleveland with these specialty cream cheeses knows what they're doing! I enjoyed the honey brie walnut cream cheese so much that I made a third trip to this location, just to get a side of it to put it on extra pita I had laying around. What also makes this location special is the location! I enjoyed my latte inside the Arcade, and the beautiful architecture and interior design were so incredible. It was a wonderful break in the day. Great, efficient service, delicious drinks, good vibes all around!

This Starbucks is located in the Rockside Corners Plaza in Independence (with plenty of parking)…read more It's a very simplistic and outdated location. By that I mean simple furniture and decor. There's just a store, no drive-thru is available. This location is close to all local hotels (within 3-5 minutes drive) and Independence business district.

At around almost 8 AM the coffee shop was almost empty. Wall decor includes coffee agriculture art. It was interesting to check out. But then again I love all coffee art at Starbucks.
