Crema's Take
“Jake's is a casual sandwich spot that's been struggling since what appears to be a recent ownership change, with customers consistently complaining about inflated prices ($17-20 for sandwiches), dramatically smaller portions than before, and inconsistent food quality—particularly issues with freshness and meat preparation. While one or two reviews praise the Reuben and friendly service, the overwhelming pattern in recent feedback suggests this isn't the reliable lunch destination it may have once been. Skip it unless you're in the neighborhood and willing to roll the dice on overpriced, uneven sandwiches.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab. Light food on the menu.

We ordered two gyros. The lamb was average, but the chicken gyro was the worst food I’ve ever tasted in my life. It clearly not fresh, smelly, and off-tasting. Even my friend, who isn’t picky, couldn’t eat more than a third.
I paid $17 something for a cornbeef sandwich and it was terrible and it didn't come with a pickle and it's so small had to take some of bread off and it's still small, I'm very disappointed and upset I spent $34 something for two sandwich and that was waste of money, these…
Really amazing Reuben sandwich and friendly workers. It reminds me of my favorite bodega in New York City and was one of the few lunch spots open on Saturday in the area where I could get my hands on some classic Cleveland corned beef. The sandwich was loaded with very lean…
