Whole Latte Love Cafe 1308 S. Main Street North Canton, Ohio 44720 Whole Latte Love Cafe Our morning started off quite busy. We had just dropped off our son, to catch the bus so that he could compete in National Regionals for Special Olympics softball. There was no time for coffee at home so what better way for us to find a coffee location than close to the baseball fields. After much decision we decided to visit Whole Latte Love Cafe in North Canton, Ohio. We had already done our research so we were aware of what was to be expected.

If anyone knows Bea, you know that she's a Christmas fanatic. So this was at the top of her list of places to visit.  Walking through the doors it felt like you were walking into Santa's workshop. An employee was at the counter to greet us. Everything on their menu looked so good and appetizing.  We need to stop right here ✋ The excitement soon died out after several things were noticed. They have a great concept and many decorations that would make you smile. For one, we know that around Christmas time it's supposed to be chilly and cold, but people don't want to walk into a coffee shop and have it freezing. It was so cold that you would expect to see Mr. Snow Miser present. The staff was not personable at all. In fact, after they found out we were with Bindi's Bean Blog they became quiet and ignore
