★★★★★ 5.0 Derek Personal Anders · Feb 2026

Well travelled and love stopping at different local coffee shops as opposed to the big chains. The fact that this place was in my own backyard right here in Akron and I only discovered it this year is crazy. Some of the best coffee and lattes I have ever had! The are incredibly accommodating to those with celiac and I have eaten here 4 times with no issues. The manager said hi wife has celiac so the staff is well trained in understanding of the disease and is over accommodating. You will never be met with a frown and each staff member stemmed genuinely happy to be there. Need a quick bite I highly recommend the peanut butter toast! (See pic) If I could 6 stars I would!

★★★★★ 5.0 Hailey Jones · Apr 2025

I really enjoyed my visit! It's definitely a popular place that attracts a young crowd. Almost all the tables (and there's so many) were taken but we got a fun comfortable spot at the bar to drink, eat, and work remotely. Free Wifi! The staff are all very friendly, our drinks and food all tasted fresh and delicious, and the interior is very stylish. I loved my BLT and my friend loved her Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese. The only negative was that, because it's so popular, we had a hard time finding parking outside. But definitely worth the struggle. I'm excited to come back and try something new!

This was a bit of a drive for us, but worth it. The vibes are chill but modern, moody but light, quality but affordable. The staff were very friendly and accommodating to our dietary needs, and I loved that the place was kid friendly! Coffee was made with quality ingredients, and my breakfast sandwich looked super unique (unfortunately I did not get a picture, but the square shaped egg was SO COOL), but tasted amazing. I would definitely make the drive again!

Porchlight was an oasis in the midst of what turned out to be a difficult day. I planned to only spend two hours there but ended up spending six! Their cold brew was incredibly crisp and fruity, the breakfast sandwich was so yummy, their high tower drip cold brew was strong and flavorful, and the peach oatmeal dessert out of this world. Love the music, love the service, love the seating, love the whole place!! One of my new favorites!

★★★★★ 5.0 Carson Joe · Feb 2026

The food is delicious, the coffee is the BEST. The seating arrangement isnt too crowded and its not too loud. This business supports a greater cause, the owner is a kind gentleman, and the employees are friendly! There is a changing specialty list of drinks that are insanely creative and different. It is a popular spot for people to work on their laptop, so it may be difficult to snag a table with a plug.
