Today is Day 3 for Hotspot Café (1332 Carnegie Ave., 216-239-1141, hotspotcafecleveland.com), a new breakfast and lunch spot that took the place of Carnegie Kitchen, which closed earlier this year. Previous operations at this address include Verve and Juniper Grille.

The freshly minted eatery is run by CIA-trained chef William Davis, one of the brother-partners who ran the high-quality deli Appetite on Mayfield Road in Lyndhurst. That café closed last year after six years in business.

Davis says that diners can expect a quality product at a reasonable price.

“We’re a little bit nicer than what you would get at a typical breakfast and lunch place,” he says.

That means higher quality ingredients like cage-free eggs, fresh-cut fruit, steel-cut oats, Ohio maple syrup, nitrite-free deli meats, fresh Certified Angus Beef burgers and many local products.

Breakfast items include corned beef hash, breakfast burritos, omelets, pancakes and house-baked pastries. At lunch, diners can choose from housemade soups, a half dozen salads, half-pound burgers, and a number of deli sandwiches, including the World’s Greatest Sandwich, which Davis imported from Appetite. In that popular sandwich, ham, Swiss, lettuce, mayo and mustard are all piled onto a soft pretzel bun and toasted.

The “hotspot’ in the name refers to the free Wi-Fi and high-speed charging plugs offered to guests.

Hotspot is open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

  1. Food is great from eggs to soups, salads to burgers. I have had several meals here and have not been disappointed. The homemade chocolate at the end of the meal is a welcome treat.

  2. I used to try to find reasons to run errands in the area of the Davis brother’ Lyndhurst deli so I could order a Turkey Berry sandwich and get some pastries and a loaf of Challah to go. I can’t wait to get to Hotspot!

  3. Samsung user and recently I purchased Samsung Galaxy A7. This device such an amazing and it’s all features are very supportable and understanding. It’ processer very fast and if I talk about camera then it is fabulous, the camera is the most important thing for a phone and if we are using a smartphone then we always worried about the camera before the purchased phone. But my phone’s camera is more clear and pictures quality is really nice.
