Stopped by to try a new coffee place and we were so pleasantly surprised! Clean, cozy, and welcoming atmosphere. All of the lovely ladies working were so sweet and it’s a family business! My husband had a warm cinnamon bun and I had the strawberries and cream croissant and they were both amazing. Went perfectly with the best coffee we’ve had in ages. Highly recommend a visit-let’s make this small family business a lasting part of our community!
I've stopped in a few times and am never disappointed. Food is very fresh, clearly made to order. I get the chicken salad wrap with truffle chips and it's soooo good. Pastries are delicious - I've had the peach and strawberry hand pies and apple dumpling. I haven't tried their coffee yet, but their berry smoothies are so refreshing. Plus they're next to a plant shop.... perfect outing!
Oh my gosh absolutely better than I could have hoped for. Everything was homemade & delicious! I can only speak for what I had which is the breakfast croissant & a danish but it was so flaky & good, can’t wait to try more. The owners are super nice!!! Seriously the best experience my only complaint is I didn’t stop here sooner!!! Will forsure be back.
I love this place! The chicken salad sandwich is amazing and so is the tuna salad. It's new so I've only been twice and both times it was delicious. They also have fabulous sweet tea. I'm a big tea drinker and there are only a few places that I can say, it's fabulous. This is definitely one of those places. The atmosphere is so quaint and it's extremely clean. Try it, you'll like it!
I came to get a coffee; however, they do offer so much more. This place has an incredible atmosphere, offers great food options, and baked goods. I will definitely come back to try them next visit. The staff is very friendly, make a great mocha, and I was able to relax and enjoy some quiet time. I highly recommend this place.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Fantastic Cafe! I stopped by Tootie Sue Cafe and picked up two Cafe Americanos and two spinach, bacon, and cheese quiche, and I have to say – everything was incredible! ☕ The coffee was a perfect medium-to-bold brew, served at just the right temperature, smooth and full of flavor. 🥧 The quiche? Exquisite. A light, flaky crust with super flavorful ingredients—this quiche has chops! 🏡 The atmosphere is just as great as the food. Beautifully decorated, warm, and inviting. The pastry counter was fully stocked with a great variety—including gluten-free options! 🍽️ The menu is packed with delicious breakfast and lunch choices, making it hard to decide what to try first. 🛋️ Seating is ample, perfect for a quick bite, a sit-down chat, or even hosting a meeting in their rentable back room. Parking was easy, and service was fast and efficient. 👨🍳 The owners were so kind and passionate about their business, and it truly shows in every detail. If you haven’t checked out Tootie Sue Cafe yet, you’re missing out! Highly recommend—5 stars!
I've drove by numerous times for the past few months, decided to try today. The atmosphere invites you to stay a while, the bathrooms were clean, with a family bathroom including a changing table (single dads have a hard time finding a changing table), comfortable couches to relax while you wait. I could taste the passion for cooking with my meal. Although I've never had a side salad before noon, it was an extremely fresh salad with delicious croutons. I didn't try any pastries that looked amazing, but I did have a frittata and earl grey tea. Amazing, very light and fluffy eggs that me and my daughter really enjoyed. I'll recommend to others, and hope they stick around. ♥️
This place is absolutely amazing! Everything is cooked to order, and you can truly taste the love and quality in every bite. Norma and Sandra are incredible at everything they do—from their delicious bakery items to the best sandwiches (and hands down the best pasta salad I've ever had!). Lacey and BJ, the owners, are some of the most welcoming and genuine people I’ve ever met. They make you feel like family from the moment you walk in. They deserve all the success, and if I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Highly recommend!
The sweetest little cafe! The staff is very friendly and they have a great variety of food and drinks. I stopped in to work for a few hours and it was the perfect spot to enjoy lunch while getting work done. Very clean and easy parking. Hand pies are a must! I had to get one to-go because my chicken salad wrap was so filling.
What a lovely place! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and the customer service was genuinely friendly. The frittata with the side salad was just perfect, and the cherry hand pie I took home was delicious. If you want to linger a bit longer, they have board games available, and the sofas add such a nice touch. There's a small room that can be used for work or to host a private event. I’m so glad I happened upon this spot! It's exactly the kind of place Cleveland needed.
