My eyes got big, my belly rumbled with excitement, I hit the gas pedal. Upon arrival I was greeted warmly by the cook, who quickly offered me a menu to look over. The decor was a mix between cotton candy unicorn vomit and former amerimexican restaurant with a few items that really left me scratching my head (spray foam popcorn, ceiling fans from lord of the rings, etc). I ordered the Triple C Chicken sandwich (which was a GREAT move!), but as I paid I politely asked if the restaurant had Wi-Fi. The young lady at the counter scoffed, and hit me with the "m'no". Not only was it kind of rude, but for a place so clearly aimed at children (or at least adults that eat like children, of which I am clearly guilty lol), to not have Wi-Fi just felt a little weird. Still tipped, happily paid for "eating here" tax (makes no sense, but not their fault) and took my meal to a coffee shop. The food nearly made up for the service though. The sandwich was like nothing else I've ever had. Caesar salad and some other toppings on a chicken sandwich. Who knew. I'll probably go back but leave my laptop in the car!

Tucked away in a non-descript strip center on Mentor Ave. in Painesville, Ohio; this beautiful Middle Eastern cafe/bakery/coffee shop is a real jewel. It is very nicely appointed, with plenty of seating, and plenty of room. The marvelous display case faces you as soon as you enter. And it has some of the most amazing offerings you will find outside of the Mediterranean community. The coffee and beverage offerings are everything you would expect, plus many selections you would never anticipate. And the pastries on display are absolutely beautiful just to look at... Like art work. Your eyes will be screaming at you to buy it all and eat it immediately! My wife ordered an iced coffee with a pastry that was a combination of chocolate fudge and pistachio cream topped with a drizzle of caramel. So decadent... so wonderful! I had a fantastic Pistachio Latte (amazing) with something I have never seen outside of Sicily - "Frutta Martorana". It is a fabulous Arab/Sicilian pastry treat designed to look like real fruit. And it tastes like the fruit it looks like (see pictures). All I can say is, be hungry and be ready for desserts you have never had before. It will be an amazing experience. I very highly recommend "Blue Bee" to you. You must try it.

I have to say I'm a little nervous to write this review as I have seen on Google that the owner…read moredoesn't take negative news very well. But here goes. My husband and I stopped in to get coffee and breakfast for his birthday - we have never been and like trying new to us places. I was quite frankly confused by the whole place Java is in its name, but it seemed like Java was one of the last things that was on the worker's (I think it may have been the owner) mind. As the Java was already premade and all she did was add pump syrup to it! But anyway, it was fine. We also ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches (to go) Our total bill for 2 coffees and 2 sandwiches was around $44 - I don't know exactly, as I didn't get a receipt. But I did question the prices as I thought it was a bit high. Our bacon egg and cheese sandwiches were $15 each, coffee was $5 each. I think there may have been an up charge on the GF bagel to make up the difference. Honestly, it was my husband's birthday so I didn't really pay attention to the pricing. So food/drinks were ok. The croissant itself, which was homemade, was delicious! The store itself was a little schizophrenic - a little bit of everything, handwritten signs, furniture having all different kinds of chairs and what not, backwards signs. And seems like they made a little bit of everything food wise too, I saw Indian, Lebanese, Vietnamese, and Italian foods there. But NO VANILLA LATTE - in a JAVA bistro ha ha ha. Here's where I think it fell off the rails for me: the owner was REALLY REALLY pushing her Pho and meatballs, AND........also unsolicited was giving me weight loss tips, She was telling me about intermittent fasting and healthy eating, etc. I felt very uncomfortable at this point and couldn't wait to get out of there.

I have been doing high tea the last 2 years and we hand-picked this place to visit this year. This…read morewas a beautiful house outside and inside. This was a great pick after a some research. The house was packed on a Tuesday afternoon. We did reservations and so glad we did as they were not taking walk-ins on the day we dined. The employees were very courteous and kind. The menu is great and so much to choose from. But of course we chose the high tea meal. It comes with 4 sandwiches lemon bread and scones and to finish strawberries. All the food was of good quality and tasted very good. Cucumbers and tomatoes could have been cut thinner on the sandwiches, but the taste was really good. They have a few things for sale, but it is not a small gift shop. The few tea rooms that I have gone to did have a souvenir shop to buy tea, bakery items or small tea pots or cups. But I think their focus is on the tea room and food. Their tea is placed in tea pots that are beautiful and they place it on warmer to keep it warm. With many variations of teas and also other option other than tea to choose from. It was just a great place to enjoy the day and some tea.

Miss Hickory's Tea Room is a quaint tea house right next to the scenic Mill Stream Run Reservation…read more There's a softness to the place with its charming teapots and tea cups, pastel color scheme, and themed tea rooms. I had the loveliest afternoon tea with my mom at Miss Hickory's. AMBIANCE: You'll step back into the 1900's with time-specific decor and waitresses' attire. Miss Hickory's occupies a mid-1800s farmhouse that was owned by the first blacksmith in Strongsville, William Weller. The current owners preserved the historic charm, transformed the farm house into multi-room tea house. There are two main dining areas on the first floor, and multiple gorgeous themed tea rooms upstairs (like the Gathering Room and Storybook Tea Room). The interior contains a lot of refurbished and vintage furniture, charming housewares, and decor. Think pastels, florals, and lace. The space comfortably accommodates big groups and pairs. Small parking lot is available onsite, consider car pulling if attending with a large group. RESERVATIONS: I personally despise the commitment of reservations, but the process here is very easy. I emailed the tea house, received same day email response, and was not charged to hold the reservation. The tea room space started filling very quickly at open, so it's best to reserve your space. FOOD/TEA: Multi-page menu will accommodate all types of tastes. Find another seasonal menu at your table with all the flavors of the season. The menu contains signature plates, sandwiches, soups, sides, sweets, desserts, and beverages. You can have anything from a full tea feast to no tea at all equally enjoying your time. If you're a tea connoisseur, read all tea descriptions at the end of the menu. We ordered Miss Hickory's High Tea Sampler ($23 per person) that contains a shareable 3-tier serving tray with finger sandwiches, wonton cups, strawberries, scones, sweets, and crème. While I have seen larger portions at other tea houses, the food amount was very filling. Everything was extremely fresh, much fresher than experienced at other tea houses. I most enjoyed the walnut scones, they were so delicious! The standalone menu items seemed expensive and were served in very small quantities based on our observation of other guests. I don't think that ordering standalone items offers value. My mom thought that the experience was pricey, while I think it's about at market price. Since the tea is not included in the sampler, we ordered and shared two tea pots - Loose Leaf Arctic Berry and Black Currant ($4 per teapot with refills but no sharing). They were served with a tea warmer which was incredible, I love me some hot tea! The flavors started out very mild then evolved during our experience due to longer steeping. We agreed that Arctic Berry was our favorite tea. If you're not into loose leaf teas, you'll discover a very long Twinings selection. EXPERIENCE FOR KIDS: Many guests arrived with kids who were very enthusiastic about tea parties. They wore adorable matching outfits. Kids received their own tea experience - tiny tea cups and teapot. It was really cute! The room upstairs (Storybook Tea Room) seems to well accommodate anyone with children, has fairytales book, and play tea set. I can envision an adorable children's tea party in this space. SERVICE: The service is extremely attentive. Five stars! Our waitress was so kind, efficient, and just generally pleasant. She presented us with a demo of additional desserts for purchase at the end of the dining experience. One of them was Bridgerton-inspired Mille-feuille! We didn't have any more room for desserts, but they looked really elaborate! The owner inquired how our experience was at the end of our afternoon tea as well which felt especially welcoming. SHOP: The tea house has a small shopping area by the entrance. The cutest things are tea cup cards with tea bags! We loved our calm and delicious afternoon tea. We plan to return during nature's more scenic seasons like winter or the vibrant time of fall. I think that the views by the tea house will be unmatched. I have to say that it's one of my best tea house experiences.
