Terrible service online ordering in the restaurant that does not work. Food and cocktails are overpriced. Negroni on tap is a gimmick that tastes stale. Would not recommend.

We went around 1:30pm on March7th. Food was very good. Had wine and cocktails. Service was outstanding. Female server and she was probably the best server I have ever had. I would only recommend that there were more appetizers. Bread was outstanding as well as the croissants. Vegetarian dishes were very good as well as the Broccoli melt. We were able to find parking on the street.

I recently visited Cleveland for 24 hours to visit my bestie! With little notice, she planned this extraordinarily memorable itinerary. We walked around a number of neighborhoods, but this area has an aura of great fun and hipness. She knew exactly what we were getting: Beet and Farro salad and the Chickpea Piadina. While i never would have thought of myself as a 'beet person', this truly changed my mind. You might say its a Beet and Farro salad for non-beet people because it was perfectly proportioned with the various flavors. They know how to make a great salad AND my bestie knows how to choose from a menu! (You may think its easy, but i come across those who complain after THEY picked their items off the menu!) The Chickpea Piadina has such an exotic sound but the sole complaint i have is that i wanted MORE! i loved how it was stuffed and made for such a great lunch. I was full without being sick. When finished, I felt clean and healthy because of the quality of these items. As we left, we saw people entering and then, we both agreed that we were jealous of those just entering after having such a great meal! Thank you for this great experience and we should all have a bestie who knows food like she does.

Honestly one of favorite spots in Cleveland, hands down. I love meeting here with friends for coffee and conversation, or I come solo and get work down while enjoying lunch. I feel like i've ordered from most of the menu already but my favorites are definitely the Pork Meatballs ( seriously, try them! ), the delicata squash with lentils and burrata, and the warm beans. The building is stunning too.

Easily the best bar/restaurant in Cleveland. If you haven’t been yet you need to fix that.

Patron Saint is my top spot to take friends for breakfast, coffee, and conversation. The building is beautiful, the atmosphere is fantastic, and the servers are all friendly. I love it here!

Not for an old couple like us. mostly vegan and not real clear how to order and pay, we were confused and we sat there waiting for a check. Saw the Cleveland mayor enjoying his

Lunch dates with friends at Patron Saint Cafe + Bar >This was my first time visiting Patron Saint and I already know it won’t be my last! When I stopped in yesterday to meet up with a friend for lunch I was immediately obsessed with the decor elements and interior design of this space—the open concept was so inviting and the window bar counter feature is ideal for those who wanted to grab a bite solo or with a friend.I started with an oat milk and honey latte followed by a green salad paired with focaccia from Leavened that I saved for the meatballs that David and I split.I think my favorite thing about PS is that they utilize Toast for processing so I didn’t even need to worry about bringing my wallet and was able to place my order and pay for my tab directly from my phone even though there was less interaction with our server compared to your typical restaurant establishment, she was truly wonderful and incredible at her job!If you’re in the Ohio City area and looking for a great place to dine in Cleveland, I would 10/10 recommend visiting!Dietary restrictions: Plenty of options for vegans, vegetarians and gluten free diets!

Came for dinner, but probably better during the daylight hours. This space was beautifully converted from a 'tile showroom' to this quaint Italian style restaurant/cafe. The archways and high ceilings combined with the overall design give the traditional space a modern flair. They share the space with a cycle spin class on the other side of the building and a yoga studio. upstairs. They have a restroom available. Being on a ground floor makes for easy access for baby strollers to get through. There is only street parking available. No reservations accepted. It is walk-in only. Not sure if there is wifi, but someone was working on his laptop when we arrived. A server came by to notify us to scan the bar code and place an order on the app. She mentioned an apertivo menu that has a few small plates and drink specials. You also pay for the meal & tip via app. So, there is little interaction with the server. The app may be good for efficiency on a busy night, but it can be a bit awkward not having an actual server come by to explain the menu or answer any questions throughout dinner. We got up a few times to ask questions and request extra silverware. We tried all vegetarian options for dinner - including the roasted squash (good, but the lentils were bland and needed some seasoning), broccoli melt (surprisingly good - the sauce makes the sandwich), and chickpea piadina (good; sorta like a spanakopita, but made with pita bread and could have fresh mint?). The olive oil cake is phenomenal! That is a must order! The apertivo menu only has one vegetarian option, which is black pepper chips & a basic ricotta dip. So, we opted not to get that. Overall, decent food but could use a few enhancements. Serving sizes are on the smaller side. We ordered 2 broccoli melts between three people combined with the other items for dinner. Perhaps we could have gotten one more item to walk out stuffed. I prefer paper menus and more interaction with servers. The app was a little confusing to see if our order was placed and keeping track of what we ordered. Seated on the opposite side of the bar area, we felt a bit separated from serving staff and we weren't checked on as often as we normally would at other restaurants (especially considering it was a slow evening). I'd like to come back and try this place for a more casual breakfast/lunch experience. Definitely need to come back for another slice of the olive oil cake and try one of the lattes.

Place is easy to miss but please make it a point not to! This place takes you to another world, rather another country. Felt like I was enjoying a Saturday morning at an Italian cafe. One of the first things I fell in love with was Negroni on tap! And at 10:30 in the morning, what an eye opener ! Blessed by the toast tab gods, I love the system here: seat yourself, order from the QR code and pay online. Soooo efficient and I think more businesses should adopt this system. Our drinks came out first, I started with a mint shakerato (espresso shaken with mint syrup and served on ice). Spectacular! My boy got the Negroni, a little bitter at first but tasted better as more was consumed. The olive oil cake was highly recommended on Yelp and didn't disappoint. The lemon crème topper with slices of fresh fruit meld well for moist pastry. The chickpea handheld filled me more than I thought it would. The dipping sauce really put the pocket over the top. The food was outstanding and definitely a unique alternative to the normal brunch fare. Parking is a "Everyman for himself" situation meaning street parking, but definitely worth the hype

Loved the atmosphere and menu. Everything I ordered was so nice. I thought the ordering system was cool- haven’t been anywhere before like that! Very relaxed. New favorite cafe/bar and will recommend to friends.
