Lemon Falls Cafe/Marketplace — Restaurant in Chagrin Falls

On our way to Illinois, my boyfriend and I stopped at Lemon Falls Marketplace for lunch. This cafe serves breakfast until 11am and lunch (sandwiches, salads, and soups). The staff were friendly. There were plenty of tables to sit at. The market sold grab-and-go items (e.g., croissant sandwich, meatloaf, stuffed peppers, broccoli crunch salad, grilled chicken, Thai noodles, lasagna, mac cups, chicken pot pies, short rib and cheese quesadillas, roasted brussel sprouts, zucchini cakes, beet salad, and more) as well as products (e.g., candies, cookies, chips, crackers, loose leaf teas, sauces, pastas, and more.

We sat at a table by the window. My boyfriend enjoyed the Vietnamese Shredded Chicken Salad, which was made to order. It consisted of julienne cabbage, apples, carrots, radish, pickled onion, celery, cucumber, fried shallot, and fresh herbs and served with sesame dressing on the side. It was fresh, crunchy, light, and healthy. I enjoyed the Half Sandwich (Egg Salad) and Cup of Soup (Italian Wedding Soup) combo. I liked how the Egg Salad Sandwich had tomato and crispy prosciutto in it. The Italian Wedding Soup consisted of a clear broth, diced vegetables (carrot, celery, onion), dilatini pasta, and two meatballs. Before leaving the market, I got an Iced Chai Latte and Chocolate Chip Cookie for the road. If we stop in Chagrin Falls again, I'll have to try the Lobster Roll and Short Rib Grilled...

Update 11-10-24: This place is probably the next Hallmark movie in the making for 2025. The more you come here the more you love it. Plenty of regulars too that know whats up. Great staff, seriously real food, and great coffee too. Everything from the Strata to the lobster rolls is fantastic. They have a vegetable panini that I tried for the first time the other day except since I love meat I asked they to protein-up that sucker. They added a bunch of prosciutto and made it the best sandwich ever. Also the KNOW how to cook an egg. Whether its in the strata or a wrap or anything else, the eggs are always world class perfect. Its remarkable to have that level of consistency in cooking eggs to order.

Original review: Everything you eat here is the highest quality. Their breakfast items are the best way to start the day. Heads up that wait times are long though compared to the more speed oriented places- when they make something to order they truly make it to order. Worth every minute. Plus its a great place to relax or get some work done for...

I was so excited to try this place, and it did not disappoint! It's so charming from curb appeal to dining room and decor. I loved the mushroom leek soup, especially since it was dairy free. We tried the award winning blueberry muffin that I believe is gluten-free. I see why it earned itself a blue ribbon and it was huge! My mom had a breakfast wrap and I had the lobster roll. Both entrées were delicious, well portioned, and fresh. I can't wait to try the salad with tuna the next time we visit. I took a couple GF scones and a cookie to go. They were amazing, too. This Cafe may be on our regular rotation. Plus, Pablo, Jimmy, and their staff were just the nicest. Great service! Highlights were: Ambiance, sizeable portions, great value, Fresh food with lots of Dairy free and Gluten free options, Friendly service, great coffee and bakery. Can't...
