50 Best Coffee Shops near Clayton

“City Coffee House & Creperie is a great place to escape, the vibe is that of a hidden cafe. The food is always great, I love their lemon curd crepe, opted for the waffle this time to celebrate National Pancake Day (a waffle is just a pancake with cups to hold the syrup I’ve been told). You cannot go wrong with any selection on the board. Fresh ingredients and great staff!!“

“Protagonist has the best cheerful, cozy vibes!“

“Friendly. Makes an excellent amaretto latte.“

“I loved the Turtle Latte Omj“

“Great atmosphere! I love all the colors and the inspiring vibe. There are lots of seating options to choose from—whether you prefer a soft, cozy seat or a taller, bar-height spot. There’s even a workspace that’s super soothing.

I had my usual vanilla latte, and it was delicious—no complaints! It came in a glass instead of a mug, but that’s not a big deal. The music was awesome too. I didn’t even bother putting on my own playlist because it felt like they were already playing my favorite songs.

Perfect spot for working with others or just getting things done solo.“

“What a lovely coffee shop! I am from Boston & have a pretty high standard for a good latte and ambience, but I was obsessed with this place. There was literal tiny trees inside and a super cool old bank safe room with a beautiful painting. They had some seating and big windows that let the light in excellently. Would recommend“

“This place is just lovely. The staff are always so kind. I have a severe gluten sensitivity and they are so helpful. The staff knew what my choices were to eat safely. I really like the chicken salad without the bun (no chips) add lettuce & tomato on side / corn tortillas. The chef at the Eureka location is so kind to me about my special order. Thank you all who work there. I appreciate having a nice and safe for me place to get something to eat quickly. The atmosphere is nice to get work done or visit with others. I love their spicy chai tea. The pastry case looks incredible for those who can indulge - everyone will find something to love here. ⭐️🌷“

“Love all the cookies, especially the amaretti cookies and the baristas are so sweet and helpful.“

“Years ago I ordered a coffee here. It was single origin that they prepare fresh. I asked for half and half on the side.

Five minutes later the coffee comes out and I say, “oh could I get that half and half?”

The barista looks at me sideways and says, “did you want to try it first?”

I mimed drinking and enthusiastically enjoying it, then said, “can I get that half and half?”

All this to say, they’re intense, but they care about their coffee. Its for the better.

Probably the best coffee roaster in stl.“

“Had a wonderful experience! Delicious coffee and nice staff!“

“So impressed by the sustainable production efforts of Park Avenue Coffee and the growers of the coffees they use! Truly enlightening tour and yummy beverages to sample during #caffeinecrawl“

“cold brew and a chocolate chip cookie!“

“Standards are set high and demanded. Local Europeans have enjoyed sports and best coffee years. Stop and enjoy currently Ice cream factory Premium sold in fabulous flavors. Creme Brulee with Latte iced or always a favorite. The roses still blooming as I text on the patio on a nite fall evening. This woman rates it a 5 star experience and come experience yourself“

“Great family atmosphere! Excellent fine dining.“

“My family and I are visiting St Louis and stopped in Cafe de Blaire for some ice cream. It was homemade and delicious. On top of that, the owner was sooo kind and warm to my kids. She gave me a sample of a coffee drink and it was delicious. I went back today for more coffee. The other worker was there and also very kind. I am a coffee snob and both drinks I tried were GOOD. We will be back tonight for ice cream. 😊“

“Visited Road Crew for the first time today! Great, open atmosphere inside. The bar staff was helpful and kind. They responded amicably when I asked for more dairy in my cold brew. The cold brew was strong, bold, and held up to this heat! Bonus fact, I saw TWO dogs during my visit!“

“Friendly service, delicious food!“

“Highly recommend!!! Delicious food and lattes, prompt service, super friendly staff. Couldn’t recommend enough. My mom forgot she had changed her mind from biscuits and gravy to a different meal, and she initially asked if she would be getting gravy before I reminded her she had changed her mind on her order. The cook immediately brought out gravy, free of charge. We were humbled and very impressed! Thank you for a great experience for us out of towners. :)“

“Amazing coffee! Friendly faces. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“excellent place for really good coffee“

“As someone who typically enjoys a simple coffee or latte, I tried out the seasonal sweet potato latte. What a brilliant choice it was. Full of flavor and wonderfully spiced, I could drink this every day. The barista was an absolute gem as well. I’m always on the hunt for a great coffee shop, and this has definitely made the list.“

“Maplewood Deli and Coffeehouse is my haven away from home where my dogs are treated like royalty. Frequent visits from my favorite guys Shane and Archie are always a delight. When I indulge, my absolute favorite is their lavender honey latte, the most soothing and relaxing drink I've ever savored. I adore their avocado toast, which may require a pinch of salt and pepper, but paired with eggs, sun-dried tomatoes, onions, and their other delectable options, it's a match made in heaven. Their breakfast sandwiches featuring herbal cream cheese are a game-changer - incredibly delicious and deserving of accompaniment with every order. The service is exceptionally friendly, kind, and welcoming, with the female owner being an absolute gem. She showers my dogs with love and attention, mirroring the top-notch care she provides to her customers. Undoubtedly, this is the ultimate coffee haven in Maplewood.“

“•Great staff •Great food •Excellent Coffee“

“Cute coffee shop. Quite a bit of seating even in winter thanks to a covered patio with heat lamps.

We had three coffees and three egg wraps. They have a combo both for 8.50, plus 50¢ for a little dollop of (Costco) salsa. Which we thought was a fine deal (though the salsa was a little eh).

The drip coffee was good. You could taste the greenness, it was light roast and very smooth.

The egg wraps were yummy, but a little dry and the edges of the tortillas were hard. Almostttt good, just need a fresher tortilla and maybe some cheese or something? The filling was good.

The atmosphere on the covered patio was pretty good. They just need to spruce it up a bit with updating the chalk boards. Some string lights or something.

The main guy working (owner?) was super nice.

This is a good spot, really close to being a great one!“

“I love Yummie Nutrition 🧡 Make sure when you go in, ask for "Gucci" (Add Mango popping boba for your liking). Tell them I sent ya😘“

“Warm relaxed atmosphere..“

“Really nice place with a great meeting space and gallery space. I’m“

“The French Dip was maybe not the best I've ever had. I'm sorry to say it - there was nothing really wrong but it was just okay. But our waiter made up for anything was was mildly lacking. Was his name Marquis or something like that. I'm SO sorry I didn't jot down the correct spelling. He was AMAZING - personable, handsome, efficient beyond words. The atmosphere and decor are wonderful. This was the first I had been since the name change and all was wonderful. Can't wait to return - hope I can get the same waiter“

“Cute shop, friendly staff, and delicious food!“

“Delicious fresh and healthy!“

“Cute small shop. Ice cream was delicious. I also tried the Canoli Latte. That was ok, not large or hot enough for my personal taste, but the flavor was nice. My daughter had an iced lavendar mocha, which was delicious. Staff is very friendly and has a great sense of humor. They do cator to GF and VEG as well.“

“Tried their Gateway Blend coffee and it is delicious!“

“The service was great! Our food came out so fast, it was hot and fresh, coffee was good and my cup never was empty. Highly recommended.

Parking: Parking is tricky... there's parking in front of the restaurant, but it's difficult to get in a spot without getting hit. Leaving was also a little scary because it's right off of Gravois, which is always busy and I scuffed the underside of my car leaving.“

“We had a wonderful experience! The food was delicious and everyone was friendly and accommodating!!“

“Love.Love.Love. Customer service. Love it! Atmosphere. Love it! Game room. Love it. Food. Love it! Thank you for a great experience.“

“Unfortunately I couldn't stay long but I love the amount of tea options that Teatopia has. The person at the counter was super knowledgeable and made the tea how it should be prepared. I had the duck sh*t tea and he told me the history of why it was called that. Plenty of street parking abd there places to sit inside.“
