It was agreed she'd deliver it to the location in the morning. It was needed before 2pm but the plan was to have it there in the AM. Because she forgot, and it was unsure if she'd come through, a homemade cake was made just in case. It wasn't until 1:15 that she texted on way!! Cake arrived, a bit sloppy and still warm. Ended up with two cakes. The whole point was not to bake the night before and yet, $50 later, still had to! The cake was basic with pineapple on it. Not bad just not great, for bakery cake. A bit dry. Not as expected. It's too bad because she came recommended by other local bakers and she's a very nice lady. She offers poetry nights and displays artists work. I'd recommend for that. I cannot speak about the beverages or other foods/desserts. The cafe gets 3 stars because of the community events and she offers other items I didn't try. But I will not pre-order items or recommend anyone to do so.

The cat cafe is divided into a cafe where you order drinks/bakery and sit, and the cat lounge, which you can do a walk-in appointment or reserve a spot before hand on their website. (cat lounge opens at 11am) This space was beautiful in both area, with plenty of plant and cute spot to take a photo. The staff was very nice and polite. The drinks I got was matcha latte and the chocolate beignet, both were very delicious. They offer student discount for both food/drinks and cat lounge, with a present student ID The space was very clean, and I was impressed by how much work they put in to make sure the cats are well-taken care of as well as keeping the area sanitized and clean. You can adopt the cat directly from the cat cafe since they work closely with the local animal shelter. They offer variety of activities such as Yoga or Painting here. Event schedule can be found on their social media (Facebook, instagram) Had such a great time playing with the cats in the cat lounge and will definitely be back

Room 33 is STILL amazing! Five years after my original…read morereview, we made our way back to Erie and Room 33 -- this time to celebrate Melissa's birthday. We've actually tried to return a couple times since that first visit, but apparently other people have discovered the place too. Both times we showed up without reservations and struck out. Lesson finally learned: MAKE. THE. RESERVATION. This time we did, and Room 33 reminded us exactly why we loved it in the first place. We both ordered Sonny's Short Rib, served over mashed potatoes with roasted carrots. Absolutely delicious -- tender, rich and packed with flavor. Although I gotta give the 2021 version the edge in the looks department. And you can't celebrate a birthday without dessert. Melissa went with the peanut butter pie, while yours truly handled the chocolate lava cake with ice cream. Both were worthy of the occasion. Different band than our first visit, but the same great energy. Live music, cocktails, that cool speakeasy atmosphere and a room full of people having a genuinely good time -- Room 33 just knows how to create a night out. Five years ago I said Room 33 gave me one more reason to keep coming back to Erie. Five years later, that statement still holds up.

Room 33 has been one of our favorite Erie restaurants for many years. We love the whole vibe.

Reservations are strongly recommended, especially when they have a band performing. My go-to dish is the short rib dish. The mashed potatoes are amazing and the short ribs are packed with flavor. On this particular visit, they were a bit skimpy on the au jus sauce (it's normally got a healthy laddle of pan sauce on the bowl) but that's okay. I did splurge for my birthday and get a slice of the peanut butter pie. It was super rich and exactly what peanut butter lovers want in a peanut butter pie.

I ordered the downtown wok wrap as is & the green dream smoothie. The wrap took a very long time to prepare and there were few customers. It was very messy, with liquid dripping out of the wrap. I picked up half, and instantly, the fillings fell out. Now I'm sticky. You need wet wipes or sanitizer available. It was difficult to retrieve paper towels from the dispenser, and I asked an employee for help. He watched me attempt to dig them out without assistance, and when I finally ripped a few out, he turned away without a word. I thanked him loudly. Everything tasted good, buy by the end of my meal, I was extremely nauseous and almost threw-up in the trash. I hope to make it home before feeling ill again.

Um, yes! Loved that accommodation. I grabbed an iced decaf for good measure, and hopped back in the car. The bread was still warm! That night, when we made it to our destination, we sliced up our bread and had it with pasta. It was pretty dense for sourdough - and we opted to warm the bread to take advantage of the parmesan slivers tucked into the bread. That definitely improved the flavor. The bread was ok, but the spirit with which it was given was so appreciated that *that* made it taste even better. We'll definitely be back.
