The best desserts in Lakewood, Ohio are made to order on Detroit Avenue, where Battr serves warm Hong Kong–style bubble waffles, crepe cones, house-made gelato and gelato shakes at 15000 Detroit Ave. Every waffle and crepe starts with batter Battr mixes in-house each day, which is where the name comes from. A build-your-own bubble waffle is $13 with gelato, two sauces and two toppings, and gelato starts at $6 for a junior scoop. Battr Lakewood is open Monday through Thursday until 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday until 11 p.m., and Sunday until 8 p.m.
What should you order for dessert in Lakewood?
- A bubble waffle: crisp outside, soft inside, rolled into a cone around a scoop of gelato. Try the Cookie Butter Fosters or the S'More.
- A crepe cone: a handheld crepe filled with gelato, sauce and toppings. The Creme Brulee, with a torched sugar crust, comes only as a crepe cone.
- Gelato: a junior, regular or large in a cup or waffle cone. Flavors rotate, so ask what's in the case.
- A gelato shake: a milkshake blended from the same gelato in the case, like the Lotus Lover with cookie butter.

What makes Battr's waffles and crepes different?
The batter. Battr mixes its waffle and crepe batter from scratch in small batches at the shop, with no pre-made mix and no frozen shells, and cooks every waffle and crepe to order. That's why a bubble waffle comes off the griddle warm and crisp right before it's filled. Read more on the bubble waffle menu.
Is Lakewood a good place for a dessert night out?
Yes. Detroit Avenue is one of the most walkable streets in Greater Cleveland, so it's easy to pair dinner with dessert without moving the car. Our guides to restaurants in Lakewood and things to do in Lakewood cover the rest of the evening.
Is October a good time for dessert in Lakewood?
It's one of the best. October in Northeast Ohio usually brings highs in the 60s°F and cool evenings in the 40s°F, which is perfect weather for a warm bubble waffle with a cold scoop inside. Grab a seat at the bistro tables or take a crepe cone for a walk down Detroit Avenue.
