Hot roast beef sandwich
Lindsey K.

This is a cute, cozy restaurant down the street from where my Mom lives and they love to come here. It's been years since I have actually went here, but went recently and I would have to say the prices were good, food was good and it was quick to receive the food. I ordered a Hot Roast Beef Sandwich I haven't had in a long, long time but was craving one, and it was super good with brown gravy and mashed potatoes, I even got some wedding soup and I would get that over and over again!

I recommend the chicken salad croissant. They toasted the croissant and served it with melon on the side. It was most delicious.

Locals rewards all over the place!

Food and service was excellent. Blue grass band was playing Friday morning during breakfast, they were great. Staff was very friendly.

Yikes! Was excited…read moreto come here after hearing good things, but I don't have much good to say after my own visit. There was nobody to greet you upon entering. Stood there for a good 15 seconds looking around receiving no assistance before assuming we were to seat ourselves. Menus were hidden behind a TV screen and signs said you were to order at the counter. Signs aren't a placeholder for human interaction. I would hate for anyone else to also come here their first time and have the same experience. Sat down at a table while browsing the menu, still nobody had interacted. Staff had non-existent personality when ordering, she honestly made it seem like we were an inconvenience. My sister asked for extra pickles (plural), on the side and was charged 75¢ for 1 extra pickle spear. The best part is when the food was brought over and the plate was set down, that extra pickle rolled right onto the table. The server half laughed/apologized, looked at us for a moment as the poor pickle was picked up, and out came "do you want me to bring you another one?". Blew us away! Would you want to eat a table pickle? Very bizarre, didn't even feel like a real interaction! Context clues & critical thinking are key. Lack of quality service and mediocre food is disappointing. Pros: My espresso with vanilla sweet cream was fantastic. Fruit was fresh. Leaving the establishment. Cons: My Nutella french toast was bland/dry although it looked pretty. Sandwiches ordered by my 2 lunchmates were described as "okay" and "nothing special". Staff may drop your pickle that you had to pay extra for & expect you to eat it.

Oh my this place does it right- I'm a coffee snob and am so impressed that they offer French…read morepressed coffee here (not to mention cold brew, drip, and espresso). So 5 stars on the delicious variations of coffee, and 5 stars for originality of the shop itself. It's set in a really cool ornate old building on YSU campus, which I'm guessing has some fascinating history to it. Now I'm somewhat of a fitness guru and I do not recommend eating waffles/pancakes first thing in the morning...... That said, when I come to Pressed, I get their freaking waffles because THEY'RE SO WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg one bite and you'll know what i'm talking about. And if all that wasn't enough, the customer service is absolutely outstanding. I always drop them at least a $5 tip to show my gratitude. If you come in with a bad mood, they'll put you in a good mood with their cheery bright attitudes. I've been to many coffee shops in my life and this one has left a lasting impression on me, seriously. Youngstown doesn't know how lucky they are to have this.

The ambiance here is absolutely adorable, and the staff providing coffee service at the counter are…read morewonderful. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended for me. The coffee was cold, tasted horribly burnt, and was honestly difficult to drink. I returned about two hours later and asked to taste the coffee again, hoping the first cup had just been a bad batch. Unfortunately, it tasted exactly the same. I genuinely can't believe they're serving coffee in this condition. I understand that coffee can sit for a while, especially during slower periods, but this is a coffee shop. Serving fresh, decent coffee should be the bare minimum. A few simple changes could make a huge difference. Keep a small whiteboard indicating when the coffee was last brewed, use smaller dispensers so it doesn't sit for hours, or offer ONLY French press or pour-over options later in the day when demand slows down. Staffing also seems to be an issue. They really need more people working behind the counter and in the kitchen. If that's not feasible, perhaps simplifying the menu would help the staff keep up with demand without sacrificing quality. It's a shame because the atmosphere is charming and the people working there are genuinely lovely. I wouldn't normally give a business such a low rating, but when you call yourself a coffee shop, the coffee really needs to be good. I hope they make some improvements because the place has so much potential.
