I wasn't sure where I wanted to go to breakfast this morning because the City of Willoughby (in…read moretheir infinite wisdom) decided to block off the entirety of downtown for a festival. So no one could reach the downtown businesses. So on my way home I came across "Cafe Europa and Bistro" in the Pineridge shopping plaza. It's a small storefront in the middle of the plaza, run by a European family - husband, wife, and son. When I walked in I was a bit surprised that the place was entirely empty because the parking lot was nearly full. The son greeted me warmly and told me to choose any table. He brought me water (spring water) and a menu. We chatted a little. I read the short, very to the point, breakfast menu. And settled on the "Healthy Breakfast". The young man was exceedingly friendly and kept up a running conversation the entire time. His mother was in the kitchen preparing my breakfast. And the entire thing took on a surreal feeling as if I was in the kitchen of their home as a guest. A marvelously fresh breakfast appeared very shortly thereafter and I began my breakfast, as the running conversation (admittedly a bit one sided) continued. An oversized mug of excellent coffee appeared quickly that really was excellent. Time flew by and before I knew it I was reading to leave. The young man asked if I would like a ginger shot, on the house before I left. I thanked him but said no. I paid my $16 bill and after a few pleasantries, departed. All in all it was an unusual experience. Excellent food, good service, nice people... but maybe a little too personal... maybe? I don't know. It was just different. I guess I would just say you should give it a try and see what you think.

The flavors of everything just tasted so comforting and cozy. Great little gem of a place.

The only winner here was a big hit- the unfilled Bismarck! Super soft and fluffy- bordering on syrupy but not quite- this donut was almost ideal. Light texture, sweetness but not too glazed, just about perfect in texture and flavor! The cruller was god awful. Stale, dry, rubbery, like it didn't belong at all with the fresher donuts I tried from the mix I got. The ones I got to try were inedible. BIG DOWNSIDE: CASH ONLY. $17 flat cash for a dozen.

Manhattan deli in Willoughby has been without air conditioning for almost a month. The coolers have…read morefailed, with air filters that had not been changed in two years. Some of the coolers have been fixed, but it isn't known how well they are doing in today's heat. Food was thrown out, once at the direction of the health department. The cooks have worked in 140 degree temperatures. People have passed out. A minor threw up because of the heat and was told they couldn't go home. Someone suffered an asthma attack and had to be admitted to the hospital and then was guilted and threatened to come in the next day. OSHA has been out, but no one could tell that the "fixes" failed because the weather wasn't hot. The active complaint number is # 2448729. The lake county health inspector has been out and notified again. But they are there to protect capital. To minimize the risks of lawsuits, but to keep the doors open. Basically to help protect the owners from their own selfish nature. A manager told an employee that if they shut down because of the heat, where would they replace $7000? The employees health is valued less than that. Please share this wherever you can. I can't track down all the people who may have been exposed to contaminated food. I can't talk to every employee that was sickened because revenue was more important than their health. I don't want the restaurant to close, I want tough enough consequences that it is cheaper for them to take care of their employees at work than it is to ignore them.

I like that it gave the option to indicate which 1/2 had which. 1st half and 2nd half. There was also a place for comments. Upon ordering for pickup, it gave an estimated time to pick up and a status. It was right on. I even received a text when it was done and once picked up, order completed. . Ordered a large Pizza (14") 8 Slices with sausage. 1// jalapeños and 1/2 pepperoni. The crust was light, but fully cooked. I liked that it was not greasy. The sauce was flavorful (could've used a tad more - next time I'll ask for more sauce. ). They have other things that I will also try next time! The inside was clean and the person who gave us the pizza was very nice. Will come again and recommend Pie Cafe for pizza. Hope to review other items next time. Unfortunately, they don't have any menus. I'm sure this helps keep the costs down. This was unfortunate as my dad liked it too, but at 86, he is not going to order online. I told my dad he can look online and just call.

We were in the neighbourhood interviewing someone for a podcast and decided on a sweet treat afterwards. If I wasn't in Wickliffe, I most likely would never have come across this ice-cream business because I don't normally drive down to that neighbourhood plus I had never even heard of this ice-cream spot. ICE-CREAMS - HOMEMADE!! There are plenty of ice-cream flavours to choose from and you will definitely find something that you like. They also have milkshakes, sundae's, floats, flurries, malts, etc. I got the Coconut Chocolate Almond and Salty Caramel Truffle flavoured ice-cream in a cup. Their ice-creams can be served in cones too. I enjoyed the ice-cream especially the salty caramel because I love caramel. The coconut chocolate almond tasted good too. Both flavours were very fresh. PRICES -- Very reasonable ($3 and up) and cheaper than Cleveland ice-cream shops such as Mitchell's ice-cream. BUSINESS HOURS -- They are opened from March through October every year so they close during the winter months. Look at their facebook page to find out when they open for the 2026 season. AMBIANCE -- This little ice-cream shop is an open concept one because customers order from an outside kiosk. Seating is also outside on benches. TIP -- This is a CASH ONLY business. If I'm in the neighbourhood again, I will be happy to stop on into Jerry's Dari Pride. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 7/250 total reviews in 2026 - 848 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 February 2026
