NE Ohio Breweries: Husband + Wife Favorites
Since our first brewery date back in 2009, we’ve explored beer spots across the state (and beyond). This list rounds up our local favorites — whether for the beer, the food, the vibe, or all of it.
Get a beer flight and the pretzel; the vibe here is great with cute indoor + outdoor areas. This is a newer brewery, it opened end of 2024.
Richfield Brewing Company
If you like sours, give their Bramblin’ Bronco a try - feels like a neighborhood, zero pressure, cozy chill spot
Hoppy Dude Brews
A classic gem that's grown over the years - TIP: if you're visiting Ohio, stop here before heading back to the airport
Fat Head's Brewery
Espresso Yourself in Brunswick, Ohio
THE BEST pup cups! 🐾 My fave coffee stop to take my dogs on a nice Saturday morning bc they stand outside to take your drive-thru order – and they add a chocolate covered espresso bean on top of your coffee + espresso drinks. There's also a walk-up ...
The Human Bean
Try their cinnamon roll + speciality cold brew! We always go inside to order but there is a drive-thru. They are an active part of the community, definitely worth visiting!
The Grounded Bean
New in 2025! We like their breakfast sandwiches, they taste fresh and the bagels they use are yumm! - especially the sammy that team member Alex recommended to us, said it was his own personal creation. They def need to add the “Alex” to the menu! Yo...
Cool Beans Drive Thru
I like this location, we visit frequently; both inside and drive-thru! Fast moving, consistent in how drinks are made, easy to turn right out of the parking lot. Gets busy but moves things along quickly.
Dunkin'
Cute interior vibe + staff is always nice. My drinks are consistently correct, nice location. Turning left out of the parking lot can get busy, but not usually held up more than a handful of seconds.
Starbucks
Worth Waking Up For: Brunch Spots Near Brunswick, Ohio
Good mornings start with good breakfast. This list rounds up our top picks for eggs, coffee, quick bites, and weekend brunch — no matter the vibe you’re going for.
TOP PICK for unique + Insta worthy speciality drinks. We also love their food. Be sure to follow them on social media and visit often as they create new VIRAL seasonal drink menus
9ers Diner & Pub
Freshly made liège waffles, a hole in the wall spot, and the same super friendly waitress serves us every time we are there. Get the breakfast pizza waffle, thank me later (first 4 pics are mine - that's the pizza waffle - my mouth is watering as I w...
Waffle-O-Waffle
Get there early, like - when they first open, and order the Big Show savory crêpe (or Hayley, if you don't like onions). Epitome of small town restaurant. You can even shop the art on their walls.
Kelly's Cafe
A national chain but still good. Our local location opened in July 2024. Be sure to get their coffee, and add some hazelnut creamer if you're fancy like me.
First Watch
Get a mimosa flight and The Morning Glory breakfast burger - I usually go here for brunch around my birthday each year - LOVE
Rail Craft Kitchen & Bar - Strongsville
Loved the open layout and relaxed vibe. Everything we ordered for breakfast was great — especially the cold brew. It’s not a full-service sit-down spot, which actually makes it perfect if you’re looking for real plates and good food without the waits...
La Crepe Bakery & Café
Get the Bodega brunch pie - it's on an everything bagel crust - SO good
Ohio Pie Co
