35 Best Coffee Shops near Peninsula

“Stopped by this charming coffee shop and had a delightful sugar free vanilla latte. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was inviting. So much character and so much more than just a coffee shop. I also have celiac and was amazed by the gluten free options. I cannot wait to go back and see the wine cellar and enjoy more that this little gem has to offer.“

“Big fan of Portal West!Every time I've visted, the team is kind and intentional to welcome me in. The space is mellow, and the decor is aesthetically pleasing.Their coffee is some of the best I've had in the area. The baristas are very knowledgeable and helpful with recommendations. This place is a must-visit!“

“My favorite spot!❤️ I’ve tried a variety of items: from lemonades, lattes, frozen and iced cold brews, and teas. There seriously hasn’t been one drink I didn’t like! The staff is so friendly and honestly half the reason I go here lol. The other half would be the amazing drinks & sweet treats! :)“

“We’re very kind and even talked to me after I ordered while they were making a very delicious matcha. Loved how they made it the traditional way and not with some dumb electric wisk. The entire shop felt very comforting and a very peaceful atmosphere.“

“Quite busy, very nice workers. I had a pour-over coffee instant the person I was with. The Asterisk ✳️ is a great place to have it a quiet cup of coffee, go to Wi-Fi connect and do your school or business computer work. LGBTQIA+ friendly. It was a nice day so we took our cups of fresh coffee and walked down to the little park it was only 100 ft away. We had a good time and planned to do it againParking: There's plenty of street parking and a free parking garage across the street.“

Delicious pastries, scrumptious drinks, savory breakfast sandwiches...this place has it all!Vegetarian options: Pastries plus egg and cheese sandwiches. Also many coffee and tea drinks.Dietary restrictions: Noticed several gluten free options.“

“Loved this place! My husband and I love trying new places to get our iced vanilla latte and cold brew. Both really hit the spot! We debated coming here two days in a row and then decided it was too out of the way. I really regret it now and have been thinking of my latte all weekend.“

Excellent Service,Excellent Food and simply put,this is now our "Go To Place" when we do our "1 hour runs" to and from Cleveland Hopkins Airport..!! Thanx Tony's..!!“

I’m a huge fan of their frozen drinks. Mocha freeze actually tastes like the real chocolate!! I would definitely recommend this place, and I will be bringing more of my friends. “

“This place was absolutely phenomenal - the food is so delicious, the decor within is beautiful, and the owner is an absolute sweetheart!! We visited for the first time, and she gave extensive details about the treats we eyed and offered a sample of a bestseller. Highly recommend, and will definitely be coming back here!!“

“I live near Tallmadge. I had an appointment in Brecksville, and on the way home, I just had to stop in for the eggnog gelato! It was perfect! Their selection of flavors is wonderful. They have food and specialty coffees also. I'm planning to take a trip back with my daughter for lunch soon. Great place!“

“We were passing through for a cup of coffee on the day of the solar eclipse. The place was bustling with locals and out of towners alike before they closed up shop early that day. Even through all of the craziness, the sweet lady at the register took our order and chatted with us, even answering questions(probably for the millionth time) about where a good spot would be to see the eclipse. Our coffees and pastries were delicious and the atmosphere was an all around fun vibe. The prices were great too. I'd love to stop back if we're ever in the area again! And the view of the eclipse was absolutely out of this world!!Parking: Plenty of free open parking spaces in front of the shops.“

“I was in Stow, Ohio over the weekend and found this awesome little coffee shop. I love a good coffee, it’s a thing that I enjoy. The Nervous Dog Coffee Bar was an absolutely delight to get a coffee. I will say this place was super busy, customers ordering at the counter & drive-thru. The staff did a fantastic job though, very friendly, helpful & got your order to you quickly. I went with my standard hot chocolate cappuccino & they had sandwich’s. So I ordered a “Golden Lab” which was an unbelievably tasty Turkey Club with veggies on it. I will say that I was one amazing sandwich, I very much enjoyed it. I was able to get a table to enjoy my meal & coffee. Your seating options with be tables, I found the chairs comfortable. I loved the atmosphere of this place, very relaxing & calm. A local artist had her paintings on display & for sale. The paintings were stunningly vibrant & used a brilliant paint. I really enjoyed my time & coffee here, I will definitely be returning for more coffee & tasty sandwiches. If you love a good coffee & sandwich’s, this is the place you must try.“

“Nothing was open as it was very early when I arrived. However, the restroom was open and clean. Very spacious inside. Property was well lit, inside and out. Two different entrances that I noticed and used. Cleaning staff were there late night/early morning.“

“I would give it 5 stars if they removed self checkout. Other than that, great giant eagle. Great clean produce selection n cheaper prices than Walmart. They have healthier option snacks. They got upstairs lounge nice to hide away n study or read.“

“I always love going to Macedonia nutrition! It’s always so yummy and filling and always love the service and I love that it’s a family owned business!!Dietary restrictions: I’m a type 1 diabetic so being able to come here and get a shake that uses sugar free everything makes me so happy!“

“Ladies day out, and Cafe Arnone was fabulous! The owner super friendly, knowledgeable and patient as this was our first time. We did the gelato flight, totally worth it! You can tell it’s made with love! I had the spicy Sicilian (wow) the Tuscan chicken, pizza and gluten free egg sandwich, made up our table, with coffees, latte, teas were VERY happy and satisfied. Worth the trip. Clean restaurant, and restrooms.Dietary restrictions: So many things that are gluten free, our friend enjoyed cake and sandwich, alsode-caff. espresso“

“Best little donut shop ever!!! So funny thing... my daughter wanted dunkin donuts and the drive thru line was around the building and jubilee was open so I decided no we are going to try this place! Now we've been there at least once a week every week since. I can't go back to dunkin donuts now that I've had a freshly made donut that's just light and fluffy and delicious! Also so many kinds ! I don't have to settle for whatever is left!“

“I was a little disappointed at this one compared to the one on Talmadge circle. I was surprised the selection was less than the other one, they seemed to be out of a lot even for 10am. The donuts were tasty, but my apple fritter still had unbaked doughy bits and was ice cold, I ended up not finishing it. I'd still pick this over a dunkin, but would much rather go to the one in Talmadge.I like the interior, the seating is nice.Kid-friendliness: Definitely a place to bring your family and young ones.“

“I come most Wednesdays for BOGO drinks to treat myself after work, one of my favorite routines. The employees are always super nice, my drinks are always delicious, and the food is always hot. Might be a little slow at times but very well worth it!“

“I was asked last minute to provide the cake for my daughter’s bridal shower. The Bake Shop in Ghent saved the day by 1. Being open on Sunday and 2. Preparing a beautifully decorated, but most importantly, absolutely delicious cake! The folks at the shop were so very nice and welcoming. Highly recommend!“

“Let me start off by saying I do not like coffee but have always wanted to enjoy it. A friend brought me here back in 2019 and had me to try a Bonfire. I have been absolutely hooked since. I will drive for 20 minutes plus to go get an amazing coffee from here. Not to mention the amazing pastries. Y’all need to open a location in the Green/Canton area!“

“I’m from southwestern Ohio and I like trying new coffee shops when I’m away from home. Came across nervous dog and I’m glad I did. I got an apple pie iced latte. Very good. Can taste the apple pie but it’s not too sweet and overpowering of the coffee flavor like a lot of other places do. Still has a strong coffee flavor. I enjoy it.“

“We've been ordering Caruso Coffee wholesale for a few years now. The sales staff is always very helpful to give suggestions on coffee that matches our needs or familiar flavor profiles. Our favorite is Café Italiano for Espresso and Hylander Grogg for our drip machine or pour-overs. We've also tried smaller batches of Ethiopian Yirgaheffe and Jamaican Blue Mountain. All varieties we've had are fantastic.“

“Very good food !! And fresh ! My only critique would be very expensive ( a chicken bacon wrap and large smoothie $17.99 ! ) and they do not give you a bag for your food when take out other than that it is very good . Just my honest opinion . Thank you . God bless !“

“I had to hop on here and leave this place the best review I could since this place is VERY good and these weird bad reviews I am seeing are very immature and not true. I think someone made some fake accounts just to leave them bad reviews so I wanted to let the owner and any people who are thinking about going here it is really good. I really like their snickers coffee and their frozen coffees and the mocha cheesecake is so good. Their prices are good too. I prefer their coffee over dunkin or Starbucks!!Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly :)“

“I was looking s forward to a pumpkin spice latte and the gentleman at the til told me it was discontinued-boo! I settled on a cinnamon dolce and was disappointed. I do like to go in once in awhile to sit by the fire and enjoy my hot pumpkin drink so I will have to wait until nxt season. Also, they did not sell coffee pods or my favourite coffee??Kid-friendliness: This Starbucks does not seem to b child friendly at all; I am surprised this option is given?“

“Kiflis is a Serbian bakery with many cookies and pastries. You can also come in for breakfast and lunch. Try their delicious beef sausages (cevapi) and borek (flaky pastry filled with meats or cheese). They also have a small store with imported Balkan items. It's one of a kind in the greater Akron area.“

“I go here everyday before work at the chipotle across the street. I truly love the workers at this store and will forever go to this location! As a fellow fast food worker I always treat them with kindness because I know how stressful it can get and I just hope they all have an amazing shift!“

“Went in to pickup our mobile order. Inside nice, though my husband indicated the men’s room could have been cleaner.My son ordered one of his go-to’s, an Iced Matcha Tea Latte with Oat Milk. He said that it was less than good. We were traveling so opted to not return to the location to have it remade. I ordered a Chestnut Praline Latte with Oat Milk. It wasn’t bad.“

“I come through the drive-thru some mornings. Service is always timely and food + drinks are as ordered and expected. Dispositions of the window personnel are lovely. Particularly this morning, to the gentleman taking orders around 9am... You made my morning with your demeanor and pleasantries. It inspired me to carry it through to my workplace. Appreciate you.“

“Just want to give a shout out to the gentleman that was working Tuesday 12/26 at around noon working the bar , you sir deserved the tip I had personally given to you , I hope that you had kept that for yourself for the fact that I rarely see that kind of hustle, focus, and workmanship in any establishment. Starbucks needs to promote you quick , you have serious potential for leadership with the skills you possess and I hope that is recognized. Thankyou for the quality service you provided!“

“Ohh 5 stars for the frozen drinks like strawberry shortcake and blood orange. I can never choose so I buy both and share with my kids lolAhhh the Americana is a fan favorite.I introduced your coffee to my bosses. Big mistake!!! They send me for butter bears lol“

“Very clean, nice location . Horrible parking, too close to maneuver. The young adults behind the register are AMAZING!!!! Great customer service, they all were so nice. Smiles, greetings, you can't teach courtesy with all the phones today. These kids need raises!!!! Lucky management!!!Parking: Not enough parking spaces. Too close to the gas pumps, especially if someone is pumping gas. Very congested. No bathroom at the joining gas station!!!!! Your employees were so gracious and let me know you offer travelers a bathroom. I thanked her and left with my doughnuts and coffee. Excellent!!! We're from a village in Ohio and not real familiar with this area. People really appreciate a nice clean bathroom .“

“I didn't get her name but the employee that worked this weekend made the most amazing drinks for me. I order the same 2 drinks all the time but these were by far the best ones I've had made in a long time. And she was so kind and even gave me a suggestion for my drink. She deserves a “
