Andrew Worm
Co-owner, The Judith Cafe and Room Service
Andrew Worm is a creative hospitality entrepreneur who, with his partner in life and business Jennie Doran, owns The Judith Cafe and the Room Service boutique brand in Cleveland. Before opening the cafe, the pair built Room Service into a distinctive presence through its curated mix of design-forward goods, apparel and home items.
On February 10, 2023, they opened The Judith, turning a historic Lorain Avenue storefront on Cleveland's near West Side into a 28-seat, French-inspired cafe serving espresso, pastries, tartines, salads, sandwiches, small plates and wine. The cafe is named for Andrew's mother, Judith, who loved French language, art, food and vintage fashion. Coverage has praised its preserved original ceiling, vintage decor and carefully composed atmosphere, and a small retail corner carries the Room Service eye for curation beyond food and drink. Worm and Doran share a belief that hospitality should do more than serve people: it should shape how they feel, inviting guests to slow down, linger and connect.
He spoke with Doran at Greyt Big Talk in May 2026, held in The Judith's courtyard.

Location
The Judith Cafe Courtyard
5222 Lorain Ave, Cleveland, OH, 44102
The Judith Cafe Courtyard is the garden space at The Judith, a French-inspired neighborhood cafe at 5222 Lorain Avenue. Partners in life and business Jennie Doran and Andrew Worm opened The Judith on February 10, 2023, in a historic Lorain Avenue storefront, and named it for Andrew's mother, Judith, a chic, French-speaking lover of art, food and vintage clothing from Paris. The cafe calls itself a space to eat, drink and spend time well, and a sister to the owners' Room Service brand. In May 2026 Greyt Big Talk gathered in the cafe's garden for a talk by its co-owners, Jennie Doran and Andrew Worm.
