What customers say

Very cute bookstore. We only came to browse and grab some tea, so we didn’t buy any books. The selection was interesting! I believe there was something for everyone. We had the shark week tea which was a nice blend. (4.5/5).

Index is one of the coziest spots in Cleveland. They make a really good pour-over, and my absolute favorite is Shark Week tea. They also have a good variety of baked goods, our top pick is the peanut butter cookies.

True coffee shops have pour overs, and this has a good one. 😊 I loved the large selection of books as well. Great place to relax.

★★★★★ — Jeff, 2026-03

Index amazed me today. I was not expecting this experience. I thought it would be the average coffee shop, but to my surprise, there were books everywhere. I ordered a cinnamon spice latte. It was creamy and delicious. Easy to drink and to relax. The atmosphere is one of a kind. It was spacious and relaxing.
