I had a medicinal mushroom coffee tasted great and had me feeling great all day.“

“We love going to Mauhaus. The cats are very well taken care of and it shows. It's a nice relaxing area to hang out with kitties, have some good coffee and a light pastry. We recommend to all of our friends.“

“I went here yesterday to try it out, I love an independently owned coffee shop! Fantastic! Great menu with interesting drinks, they do decaf so I got a dulce de leche and it was delicious, not overly sweet. Next time I was to try the Ethiopiacchiato (I think it’s called). Very kind welcoming service. Nicely decorated, great music selection…. Vibes all around. I think I might make it a biweekly work space.“

“amazing owners who adopted a shelter dog with a horrible start to life“

“Attended a church conference in St. Louis and was recommended to check out this spot for some really good coffee — and it did not disappoint! ☕️ The coffee was delicious, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved it so much that we placed an order to have their coffee shipped to our home! Bonus — you can even choose your grind. This will definitely be our new go-to coffee shipment! 💛“

“Seriously the best donuts I have ever had!!😍“

“we love this place! I've tried a few different teas, and so has my teenage daughter. I'm not a boba fan but she is, and they have something for everyone. got the pumpkin cream Halloween special today and I am IN love!“

“Living Room has THE best coffee and breakfast in St. Louis. But that’s just what gets you in the door. What keeps you coming back are the amazing staff, inviting vibes, excellent work stations (for those of us who wfh but need to have people around), and community engagement. Seriously, they have the best cortados, seasonal drinks, and bacon. But they are also vegetarian and vegan friendly and have a great selection of teas and other drinks for weirdos who don’t drink coffee. I love knowing that visiting LR means my money is going to a family-owned small business who invest in their community and put people over profit. 10/10.“

“PROS: Delicious food! Timely, sweet, and friendly service. Great atmosphere!

CONS: If you sit at the bar and closer toward the entrance, make sure you wear a jacket if it’s chilly out.

OVERALL: I’ll definitely be back sometime!“

I’ve visited twice, I can’t stop thinking of the spinach artichoke hand pie and the brown butter apple fritter. The service is impeccable too, so friendly, great vibe, really great flow for a busy spot. I wish they opened early for work days but I don’t mind a late arrival once a week for these delights. Oh and the loaves of bread are a must bring home.“

“Big Momma Cinnamon Roll & Blueberry lemon cinnamon roll > peanut butter cup bar > fauxstess > Maine Event (choc chip cookie) > red velvet cupcake > brownie > lemon bar > chai snickerdoodle cookie

The blueberry lemon cinnamon roll was superb! You could tell they used fresh, high quality blueberries on top of the cinnamon roll, and it was the perfect garnish on a
what was an already fantastic cinnamon roll. If I could review SweetArt solely for their cinnamon rolls, they are 100% worthy of a five star review. If you’re looking for a cinnamon roll in Midtown, there’s no better place to get it!

I didn’t get the same vibrant lemon experience in the lemon bar that I got with the blueberries in the blueberry lemon cinnamon roll, which was a little disappointing. And the snickerdoodle wasn’t quite as moist as I expected, but otherwise I thought everything I ate was very well made.

I generally don’t comment about the service at the bakeries I review, but the staff here was very friendly and helpful. In terms of service, I would definitely give the service five stars. The man working the counter even asked me which brownie and cinnamon roll I would like which is not something that I think anyone has ever asked me before at a bakery.“

“Amazing food, atmosphere, service, great quality and quantity for what you pay for and the dessert section is huge! My new favorite place“

“The Perk is one of the best things about MoBap! I love going there, seeing the awesome people that work there, and getting some awesome drinks!“
