DEWEYS COFFEE

Saw a couple of cranky reviews here, so I just wanted to say that I stop in here every time I go through Shaker (I live nearly ten hours away, but have friends in Cleveland), and have never once had a bad experience. The employees and regulars are always fun and friendly, and (aside from a version of Behind Blue Eyes that was definitely not The Who, lol) I've only ever had good times and good vibes. Thank you, Deweys, for giving me a sweet little writing spot with coffee! Keep it real. More...

The coffee is great but, the people make this place a gem!! This morning, Friday 7/26/18, I stop in for my usual black coffee and a sandwich. My guy behind the counter, Dillon (sp.?), was flying solo as his teammate was MIA and there was about 4 customers waiting on coffee and 4 more in line. He was duel wielding the espresso machine with expert attention and a bit of flair, like a juggler. He was buzzing around the whole shop to get everybody's order done right. By the time he got to me I just wanted to toss him a softball with a black coffee and a muffin. Not at any point did he look put upon or frustrated. He appreciated it wasn't ideal but, he pressed on with nothing but polite words and a smile. Please give him a big thank you from me! I hope he gets to enjoy his weekend, he deserves it! More...

My wife and I have traveled a lot over the past few years and finding a coffee shop close to home are what we always look for. The staff at Dewey's are friendly and the coffee is great. They have relaxing music playing on the inside and a great group of men who talk about sports and music outside. We will be spending a lot of time here over the next few years and we will call this our second home. More...

Love love love their Phoenix hot chocolate. I'm a hardcore coffee lover, but I always swing by for a cup of their cocoa when I'm around the city.

Very bright and colorful place! Baristas were kind of slow to greet and help me but the food was good! Personally loved the sugar cookie and they sell in house made popcorn too from Campbell's! They close pretty early, so be sure to get there in time! More...

I've started trying Deweys different blends of coffee with their syrup flavoring and they are excellent. I'm gonna also say their cookies are the bomb tks for the quick service as well Kudos Deweys.

Super friendly, courteous service and patrons. For specialty coffee, their prices are very reasonable, cheap even. They have PLENTY of flavors to choose from if frilly, sweet coffee is your thing and also lemonade and smoothies for non-coffee drinkers. The food items are a little pricy for what you get but nothing outrageous. There is plenty of indoor seating as well as a couple outdoor tables. They also sell specialty ice cream (by the scoop and pint) and specialty popcorn which makes it a really nice place to get a snack. More...

A nice, warm and homely place to work and get things done while enjoying wonderful coffee, fresh popcorn and ice-cream. There are basic baked goodies to complement the coffee. There's a couple of sandwich shops nearby so food isn't always a problem, although would be nice to have more options in house. Wonderful large windows with a nice view of shaker outside adds to the charm. They have local musicians play live on Fridays which is wonderful as well. Free public parking at the back in the common parking lot is another plus. To summarize, a nice place to spend a quiet and productive day. More...

Comfortable, convenient, friendly, spacious, a Shaker Square stalwart.  Attracts a very diverse crowd, from students hunched over laptops to seniors taking a break to community groups holding a quick meeting to friends getting together over a bagel and even the local cops stopping by to say hi.  Thus much more personality than Certain Chains, and you won't feel intimidated if you linger for a while or can't tell a cortado from a ristretto.  Nice bakery items, good sandwiches, sometimes soup is available, and of course ice cream and popcorn in the attached "sweet shop."  AND -- affordable!  So I am a big fan.  Why not 5 stars then?  Dewey's is unfortunately one of the dingiest coffee shops around, from ice cream coolers sometimes leaking, to paper towels on the floor in the restroom, to used napkins under the chairs.  I don't mind the tired furniture and scuffed floors -- not every place needs to be chrome and glass -- but c'mon, Dewey, you can wipe up the spills and pitch the litter!

This place is right on Shaker Square. I stopped by for a coffee and breakfast wrap because I had about one half hour to kill. The gentlemen who served me was friendly and fast. He was in constant motion cleaning up even when no customers were waiting for service. A good experience except for the old couches which were a bit uncomfortable. Looks like a great gathering place for the locals! More...

Super nice place to do work and read, or just read, if you consider reading your work. I consider reading my work, for now. Delicious zuchinni bread. Also good: bagels, blueberry muffins, cookies, bananas, teas. Love getting teas here since I no longer drink coffee. The tuna sandwiches are the best heated up! Nice employees. Outstanding ice cream flavors, e.g. black raspberry, which is chocolate and raspberry, and their chocolate blackout, mocha almond fudge, mint chocolate chip, and their watermelon sorbet. Popcorn also good. Any hot tea you can order iced. Almond milk always available. Art on the walls fantastic and they change it. Yeah, Dewey's is nice, so I'm giving them 5 stars! More...

Great neighborhood coffee shop with a genuinely diverse crowd and an overall good vibe.  Service is almost always good, baked treats are fantastic, and so are the small number of sandwich options.  Oh yeah, the coffee is good too!Good seating options inside and out encourage you to hang out.  But if you're grabbing something to go in the morning, there are dedicated quick parking spots for you out front too.I'm glad to see Dewey's still going, and I hope it continues to serve Shaker Square so well for years to come.

One of my favorite places in the area. A frequent meeting place with friends and colleagues. My mother comes here almost every morning when she goes walking with her ladies. We even made a point of taking a friend here when she was visiting  from France. The coffee is affordable, good quality, and fair trade, and there are other delicious drink options as well. There are many different syrup flavors for adding some excitement to your coffee, hot chocolate, or soda, or even for mixing into together to make your own new flavored sodas (a favorite of mine is lavender french vanilla). The food choices are also pretty great, if you're not feeling particularly thirsty. The baked goods are delicious, and there are fruits and sandwiches on the healthier side. The popcorn and ice cream go fantastically with the atmosphere of the place, which is friendly and cheery with warm colors and great customer service. The color themes are warm and homey, red and soft sienna with some olive and blue accents.Wonderful little coffee shop, I highly recommend it for those looking for a place to meet with friends, get some work done, or just relax by yourself in the afternoon.

This place really gets 3.5 from me. I love the coffee here. Ordered a cappuccino. The prices are really good also I have to say. The reason this place doesn't get 5 stars is because it's too much. It doesn't have that coffee house vibe to it. It feels like a restaurant. I wanted to come here to have a business meeting and it was way too loud. So I had to reschedule. Overall a great place. Will return, but I think I will get my coffee to go next time. More...

Dewey's is one of my favorite places to go, period.  The staff is very friendly and helpful. The ice cream is great, I've only had the strawberry because that's my favorite but they also have more elaborate flavors if you like chocolate-blah-blah-swirl types of ice cream.  The milkshakes are equally as good. Other than that, I've had their affogato, which is espresso over a scoop of ice cream.  This is traditionally served in a small cup with one scoop of ice cream, but the one I ordered from Dewey's was served in a tall white cup and the barista said "I put more ice cream in there than usual, I hope thats ok" of course it was! I got much more espresso and ice cream than I was expecting for a reasonable price. Their Arnold Palmer is on the sour side, but I'd order it again.  The italian sodas are good and you can always tell the barista if you dont like it.  No matter what I order, the barista is always like "let me know if it's too this or too that!".  My usual order is a caramel iced coffee and I like to to sit outside. The square has a nice vibe, especially if you like people watching! In the evenings on fridays or saturdays, they have live performers.  If you were expecting peace and quiet, you may not like this (but i always enjoy them).  They have a diverse group of people who perform.  I've seen indie, bluegrass, rock, etc once there was even a girl singing all parody songs.  As far as food, I've only had their quiche.  I believe it has swiss cheese, artichokes, bacon,and onions.  They warm it for you or you can take it with you cold (its a little fridge thing).  I love it and I always stop in and get it if I'm in the square around breakfast.

So, want great coffee AND about 30 flavors of Popcorn, AND ice cream? Want a place with a family-friendly atmosphere that feels like a cross between an old soda fountain and your living room? Want to find a place with nice staff, good atmosphere and a place to write your novel, short story, or just write a blog page about, I dunno, NICE COFFEE HOUSES? Than Dewey's in Shaker is your place. They are a multi-tasking, tasty spot just off of the square that has a passel of great foods and nice folks. Parking, as always in the square, is a bit dicey, as they don't have their own private lot, but after short jog, this place is the pot of...coffee at the end of the rainbow. So, for a cup of ice cream, a cup of coffee...or a cup of...popcorn, Deweys has just the cup for YOU:) More...

I agree with the other review, this coffee house indeed reminds me of the fictional coffee place, Central Perk, of "Friends" sitcom fame: quirky, bohemian and care-free. I recall they too have evening music and poetry events. That workday morning, we ordered our lattes, sat by the fireplace, appreciated the classic jazz playing in the background and people-watched a diverse crowd come in to enjoy a good cup of Joe.I'd say this is like Starbucks "plus a little more". Located in Shaker Square, this  twin establishment shares space with a popcorn/ice cream shop on it's other half. Shaker Square itself is a great refreshing throwback to a time when town squares were beautiful and meant something.I was about to bust out a vocal rendition of "smelly cat" but the better part of me exercised some restraint.

Dewey's Coffee house reminds me of a mix of Central Perk and a coffee house in Stars Hallow. If you didn't get my friends and Gilmore Girls references I'm basically saying that it's amazing! Customer service was awesome! It basically deserved 5 stars on it's own. Service with a smile was something I thought was lost but nope it's alive and well in Dewey.I got a paradise smoothie which was delicious and a chicken bacon sandwich that they kindly heated up for me was also good. I could go on and because there's also yummy popcorn and ice cream. Will definitely be back! More...

I live in Seattle so it's hard to give Dewey's a five star review when those coffee houses are the standard. But Dewey's is a breath of fresh air (with a hint of popcorn) in the city of Cleveland. A nice place to hang out with decent coffee, a pleasant atmosphere, and a cool neighborhood. I visit Dewey's every year when I visit my old city, and always enjoy the drink, food, and experience. Highly recommended. More...

My fav local coffee shop . Its great for meetings and the familiar local buisness that knows your name and what drink you want. But what is most impressive is that they give our free ice cream to the community in April. One has to look hard to find for a local spot to give Free ice cream or anything to the community for which it serves. Me and sasha [the lahsapoo] are thankful and forever a dewys patron. Its not a place for a full meal. Coffee and tea drinks. Popcorn. Soup and light fare. If u go for that you wont b disappointed. More...
