    beautiful interior
    Van D.

    Heinen's is a bourgeoisie grocery store in the area with the top quality products but they have been family owned for four generations so you definitely get that mom and pop shop love with the luxurious grocery store experience. The interior is absolutely stunning with the historic touches of the former Cleveland Trust Building. They have a bar downstairs called "The Vault" which plays on it's historical theme. My friend and I were there for their award winning wine department, located on the second floor. There are plenty of fancy wines for purchase, but what we love the most is the tasting options. You can load a Heinen's Winestation Smartcard. There are plenty of clean wine glasses under the multiple wine stations. I especially liked that you can pick 1 oz, 3 oz, or 5 oz depending on how much you would like to enjoy. My friend and I both enjoyed 2 tastings of wine. For the first tasting I had the Marcarini Moscato D'Asti 2021 and for the second tasting I had The Beach by Whispering Angel Vin De Provence Rose 2021. I enjoyed both of them but I preferred the first one more. If I had this in my local grocery I would be in trouble. I would be "tasting" so much I would need to uber home. Love the concept. Love the execution.

    This Yelp listing is for the espresso bar so that's what I am reviewing here. Lots of coffee and espresso choices, a few fresh bagel and muffin choices, and a refrigerated case with lots of cold drinks and breakfast sandwiches and breakfast burritos that they can warm up on their toaster press. My breakfast burrito came out really good and didnt taste like a wrapped sandwich from a refrigerated case. I ordered a Cafe Americano with breakfast and it was excellent. They open at 8 when the rest of the complex opens at 9.

    This was originally the home of the Cleveland trust company. The three-story rotunda is topped with a Tiffany stainglass dome. Marketis beautiful, prices are fair. We purchased food that we enjoyed in the rotunda. There is wine & beer on the2nd floor balcony.

    What came first the epic location or the epic grocery store inside? Even without the need to stock up on groceries you have to stop in and grab a snack and check out the amazing architecture inside!

    This place is amazing. It was recommended to us when we were trying to find a store with beer choices available by the single can. Something hard to find it appears in Cleveland. So glad we decided to drop in. First off, it's beautiful in here! The lower level has Prepared Food, Desserts, Sushi, a Deli, Fresh fish station and more. There is also the traditional grocery store isles. Need more? .... Head to the the upper level. It blew me away as did the Self-Serve wine stations which I have never seen before! You also have the ability to sit and have wine or beer by the glass. It is a bit hot upstairs though! And to find staff. I was beyond excited to try the Self Serve Wine and also greatly disappointed with how it works. If I'm loading money into a card why would there also need to be a $3 charge unless I load $20? Honestly, the card doesn't cost $3 to make. So I feel it's completely unnecessary. I don't live in Cleveland, I don't even visit often. So I couldn't see loading $20 onto a card I may never use again. Other than that, this place is great! If I did live nearby this would definitely be a place I frequent.

    Picturesque local owned whole food which has tons of cooked and raw food at high price points. Awesome environment, 1 bathroom without stalls. Poke was mediocre about on par with most grocery restaurants. You have to microwave any cooked foods which completely ruined the taste for my purchase. Not like Harrods food mall which it's trying to be. Nor does the cooked food quality like Whole Foods in California. Incredible old bank now grocery store though.

    The most beautiful grocery store I have ever been inside of. They have self serve wine on the second floor as well as a bar with beer on tap. Gorgeous!

    Shopping for my weekly groceries.

    Probably one of the best places to bring a casual date. You can do a stop and shop and peruse the aisles together and get a glimpse of what your life together could possibly be. Honey, will it be whole milk, two percent, or soy? Will it be grass fed cage free or an 18 count for two bucks?? You can learn if your potential pair is any good at picking produce, if they share your covetous snack preferences, and how much they're willing to spend on steak. Buttery grass fed Angus Ribeye Cap. Stop. Juicy, Marbled Wagyu ANYTHING. (They don't sell wagyu here...just saying you can get into this conversation lol) Ribeye, Hangar. Marry me. Full stop. More importantly, do they like oysters on the half shell? Are they fun drinking companions?? Crucial. When I first stepped into this place and looked up in awe of its grand stained glass dome ceiling, I thought "Jesus said don't turn his father's house into a market..." This Heinen's store is the heart transplant in the stately body of what was formerly a 1900's bank designed by G.B. Post, architect for the NYSE. It's so beautiful it almost felt like I was stepping into a sanctum. Where shall I kneel? Perhaps instead of receiving communion i will just get a fun wine tasting card and a plate of MA oysters and sit down, solemnly slurping up and washing down with a glass of Reisling. What can I add that other wonderful yelpers have not mentioned? Not much. My only tip is go, and if you enjoy wine, get a tasting card. Sashay your way around the rotunda of wines as the wine wall closest to the stair case is only the first in their installations of wines on tap. Walk around and find smaller wine dispensers that dot the second floor. You can swipe in and experience even finer wines that approach the $300/bottle mark for a tasting that will set you back less than $15. That's all I have for you. All's for you to do is to swipe right and hope for no catfish. C'mon no whammy!

    The gentleman who painted the murals around the top of the rotunda died on the Titanic. They sure don't make buildings like this anymore!
    Amanda B.

    So fun!!!! The employees here are super friendly and helpful. We stopped here to use the wine dispensers before our dinner reservation. Great selection of wines, great atmosphere - you definitely forget that you're sitting inside a grocery store!!!

    I just loved this grocery store so much do that I stopped in twice during my stay in Cleveland. The setting is gorgeous with the round rotunda and colourful products and fresh food displayed around. I really enjoyed the coconut macaroons and salad bar and later stopped in for a quick bite of $5 sushi trays on Wednesday. This place really reminded my of Sebastian's market in my old city of London Ontario. It is s great modern use of the old classic building. I really hope Cleveland can do similar things with other downtown architectural gems that make the city beautiful.

    $3 thirsty dog stout
    Sherman T.

    Great selection of food products and beers - many craft selections and they even have a tap to order a beer to enjoy in the store (they had a special $3 stout on my last visit but most beers on tap are $5). The place is two stories of groceries, but take some time to admire the beautiful ceiling architecture. They also have prepared food for you to order and eat on the go - pastas, salads, soup, etc. Just be sure to bring a cart with you while you shop, you're bound to need it!

    Salad with yogurt, deli sandwich and a craft on tap.

    SO much more than just a grocery store! Heinen's is a local chain of family owned grocery stores stretching from Ohio to Illinois but this location place is super unique. This location sits in the historic Cleveland Trust Company building that dates back to 1908. It has stunning architectural details featuring a rotunda with a stained glass dome. I never would have had the concept of restoring this building and using it for this purpose but it was genius. On the first floor under the rotunda is casual dining for their cafe' that features salad bars, a deli, grill, sushi, and a bakery. The grocery department is also on the lower level that carries local, organic foods and wellness products. The upper level has local craft beer, cider and wine as well as charcuterie and other snack foods. They offer wine and beer tastings here as well. We ate a small lunch at the cafe. I got a salad from the bar and the hubs got a pre-made deli sandwich and then we headed up stairs for brew on tap. Even if you have no need for groceries or dining, this place is a must see.

    I love this Heinen's location! Such a fun spot to go downtown. The historical bank that it's located in is just beautiful. Best part of the store is the upper rotunda (where the wine is!!!) They have a great wine selection and I love the tasting aspect. We have a "wine card" that we load money on to try wine. So much fun!

    How do I park here? Dot they have free parking?

    Unfortunately, Heinen's does not have its own parking lot. Street parking only, unless you are willing to pay for municipal garage parking and then walk to the grocery. Best to go early during weekdays for a better chance to find a spot nearby.

    They also ordered me wine that I use to get in New York which I felt like was above any other grocery store.

    Perfect cocktails, perfect pizza. We stopped out on a Thursday night looking for a bite to eat and…read morea drink or two. Was fun figuring out how to get inside. It's a small place and we thought we'd have to wait but luckily a couple were leaving so we got seats at the bar. It would have been worth the wait. We picked a couple drinks off the menu and they were incredibly beautiful and tasted divine. The pizza we ordered had anchovies and pepperoni and I swear it's the best wood fired pizza I've ever had. I wanted another drink and asked the bartender to make me a rum drink of their choice. Within minutes some amazing concoction, it was smoking inside a glass dome of some sort. The garnish was a flamed cinnamon stick and orange rind that looked like a sword. It was incredible. The vibe is nice and patrons are friendly. It's not loud, so you can carry on a conversation, and the music was nice. There is a cute little back room with tables too for groups of 2-4 people. Parking is plentiful on the street and nearby parking lots. Within walking distance of other bars and restaurants. Up and coming area. I can't recommend the Oak & Olive enough and I can't wait to go back.

    This is a great spot for a girls' night out! I went with my mom and sisters. Getting in can be…read moretough without a reservation unless you get lucky, so I highly recommend making one. There's a secret entrance since it's a speakeasy, which is fun. Someone is always there to help guide you if you can't figure it out, haha. The lighting is low, and there are a lot of comfy spots to sit, which makes the environment feel very calm and cozy. We ended up all ordering a variety of espresso martinis. Mine was a crème brûlée one, which was divine, but they all sounded delicious! We also ordered the fig & pear pizza to share. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the flavors worked really well together! I'm hoping I can come here with my husband soon.

    One of our favorite date spots! Lovely patio area for a summer evening and the service is fast (:read more

    Eight (!) years ago my friend recommended her favorite place - The Fairmount. She emphasized that…read morethe ambiance and cocktails are something to experience. Eight years worth of Fairmount moments later, this review is well overdue. AMBIANCE: The ambiance allows you to slow down and enjoy your company. The restaurant is dim lit, has fireplaces, and loungey atmosphere. It somehow feels warm and I heard a lot of people refer to it as a second home (people are always so friendly here!). There is ample space - three bars, main dining space, and huge outdoor oasis bar. Nestled in Cedar Fairmount neighborhood, you'll also be able to enjoy historic neighborhood. There are seating arrangements if you're craving company or want to enjoy your date. Seating options include couches by the fireplace, tables, and high tops. Fairmount is delightful during every season. During the summer you can enjoy the bar and patio. In the winter you can dine at the igloos. I prefer all seasons here. FOOD/DRINKS: The menu at Fairmount is impressive and has exciting seasonal/weekly additions. You'll never get bored. The cocktails here are refined, very boozy, and very well crafted. The food is seriously delicious, and consistent every single time. I've been impressed with every dish. The dishes and drinks frequently follow the seasons. During my latest visit I enjoyed Butter Pecan Warm Cider with bourbon ($12, so bold and boozy, tastes like fall). I also ordered Fig Trouble Little China ($15, a more rich version of Old Fashioned, so delicious). I also tasted Short Rib & Risotto for the very first time ($28, such a delicious dish, every bite was just amazing). My favorites? Ah, so hard! I'll go with the Fairmount Burger! It's angus beef burger with bacon-fig chutney. It's so delicious! I can't even be serious about meat at the other burger places, this is easily the best burger in the city. My seasonal favorite? Kevin McCallister seasonal drink that resembles coquito or eggnog. The drink is topped with rice paper that includes the design of Kevin from Home Alone. It's such a fun tradition! I look forward to this drink all year and always tell the world about it! SERVICE: The service is excellent. I haven't been anywhere where service is right on point every single time. Everyone is nice - the owner, hosts, and waitstaff. You truly feel seen and like the most important guest. I've visited previously while on dates and frequently dine here solo, always had the most pleasant service. EVENTS: Many people book events here for their non-profits or companies. As far as individual events, Fairmount hosts a fun NYE party every year! PARKING: Onsite parking lot is available at the back of the building. You can enter through the front doors on Cedar or right through the parking lot door. There are numerous reasons why I love the Fairmount. I consider it to be the best dining experience in the Cedar Fairmount neighborhood of Cleveland Heights. I also love how the owner Jake is very engaged in the community and is incredibly friendly with the surrounding business owners. I'll choose this place again and again for calming ambiance, crafted cocktails, and delicious food. To many more years of Fairmount and at Fairmount!
