I have been frequenting the cafe almost weekly for 2 years and the products and customer service is exceptional. The staff know their Java and greet you with a smile. It is an excellent place to study or for a social gathering even for us 40+ crowd. The background music is relaxing and does not interfere with your work at hand. The bathroom facilities are clean and the entire asthetic is rustic but with warmth and charm. My favorite place to be on Saturday morning.

Delicious coffee! Lattes are a bit of a luxury for the average students budget, but I absolutely love Slow Train. Its often crowded with students, but for a good reason: its an incredible place to study (if you dont mind background noise). I love going there with a good book or an article to read, and just kicking back for an hour or two with coffee in hand. If youre in town, its a must check out!

The cafe has excellent coffee drinks made to order. Tea is also available. The selection of baked savory and desserts is very good. It makes it hard to decide what to get. There is also a bar that is open later in the day. The atmosphere is vibrant, and seating can be hard to come by. This is everything I want in a college-town coffee shop.

I always get a wonderful beverage, no matter what I get. Prices are about what you would expect for a coffee shop. The ambience is relaxed and cozy, with a college vibe. Definitely try an Arnold Palmer, lavender iced tea (not on the menu), a lavender vanilla scone, and the Albino Squirrel.

A fun find in my quest to support independent coffee shops in the greater Cleveland area! The staff is friendly, the service is good, and theres a great vibe here. Plus, the coffee is outstanding! Im looking forward to stopping in again!

Slow Train is a nice coffee shop, whether youre settling in to study and get some work done, or you want to spend some time chatting with friends. The prices are reasonable and the staff are pleasant.

If you want a cappuccino the way its supposed to be, you need to go to slow train. With cocktails, perfected coffee and occasional live bands and trivia, its one of my favorite spots in town.

This coffee shop offers friendly service and wonderful coffee and pastries. We sat on a comfortable sofa, sipped coffee, worked on our laptops, and enjoyed the atmosphere.

Good banana bread. Coffee was weak. I had the Peru and my wife had the Brazil. Not much to see on the outside patio.

Good coffee. Good baked goods. Can get crowded on Mondays. Keep your eyes open for power cords on the floor!

Best coffee place in Lorain county. Sometimes over run by college students but thats part of the charm.

Great service, some of the portion sizes seem small for the price but the quality is usually on point.

Slow service, gave my coffee to someone else, then didnt get my shot of espresso in it either.

Good coffee and baked goods, but the service was rude--bad attitudes behind the counter.
