50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Creve Coeur

“Gioia’s Winghaven is our go to for sandwiches! Always get the order correct, always timely service, always wonderful customer service, always delicious! The only complaint is I can’t have them on Sunday! :( We’ve tried to go back to other sandwich shops on a Sunday and it never compares to Gioia’s. You’ve raised the bar so much, now everyone else is a disappointment.“

“Timothy’s by far surpassed my expectations in every aspect! The service was exceptional. The food was to die for, so much flavor. The drinks were fun and balanced. The atmosphere was intimate and moody. I will be telling everyone I see on the sidewalk about this restaurant! I can’t wait to go back!“

“I go to the Shack at least once a month. I was there recently and received excellent food and service. Jennifer was great server, nothing was too much trouble. She helped move all of our coats and bags in order to change our seats. She was cheerful and helpful. I bring my out-of-town guests here often. The menu includes healthy,creative, delicious entrees, and as well as gluten free options.“

“I was greeted by almost everyone working. It was very warm and welcoming. The person who took my order was very cold and kept repeating that I can place my order while they were away from the computer. Didn't love that. Drink was great though!“

“I had three bad experiences at global quesadilla on 141 and Clayton The first time I went in there they told me they don't accept cash. the second time I went in I got a quesadilla, some chips, and queso. the queso tasted awful. it tasted like warmed up canned cheese or something. I'd buy at the gas station but not the hot stuff in the dispenser that tasted better. And to be honest, there's nothing special about the quesadillas for the ingredients that go into it, the amount of time it takes to make and what they're charging for it. I find it ridiculous. if it's not going to taste good it should be cheap. at that point I'd rather make them at home. my third bad experience is a as a doordasher. after confirming the name of my customer, I proceeded to include my business card. global quesadilla doesn't own that food. that food was paid for by my customer. they have no right to tell me I can't put a business card with the food. the employee proceeds to yell at me multiple times to hand the food back to which I responded no twice and started walking out of the store. he proceeded to follow me out of the store continuing to yell at me and I had to tell him multiple times to back up/go inside / leave me alone. and if he touched me there's going to be a problem I shouldn't be in fear for my physical safety going into any establishment. they were also rude and unprofessional the first day I went in trying to pay with cash. how they've handled themselves multiple times is completely unacceptable. there's a reason why I only ate the food once. if I want Mexican food I'll make it myself or go to Taco Bell or a sit-down Mexican restaurant.“

“Love this place, the service and food is amazing!“

“I give this place 5 stars hands down“

“I absolutely love this location. It's the only one I go to ( everyday) The staff is AMAZING-- they know my order before I even have to say a word. I look forward to starting my day with these friendly faces. Thank you Floyd, Lexi, Sami, Madi, and the entire staff for being so pleasant, knowledgeable, and writing Mad-Dawg on my latte macchiatos ��� .“

“A good new local breakfast place. Food is consistently good, staff is friendly, & the blueberry pancakes… the fresh berries burst in your mouth! We’re repeat customers, & the coffee ☕️ is really good, too!“

“Best place to get Frozen Custard!!

Don't let the crowds out front deter you. They are fast!

Please do not park across the street, unless you use the designatedcross walk.
The have a wonderful gift shop also for souvenirs.

Great place to try all their specialities. Fox Treat is my absolute favorite sundae (raspberries, hot fudge & macadamia nuts)“

“Exquisite and surprising flavors! Kind accommodating staff. I'm so glad we took a chance. Worth every penny. They have a lot to be proud of.“

“Great food and great service. We had a very large group there for lunch after a funeral recently and it went really well. I’d recommend for lunch or hosting a large gathering. Thanks for the hospitality.“

“We ate at La Belle Vie this morning and were amazed at the portion sizes, how well seasoned everything was and the cook on our food. The coffee was delicious and they even make their own chai which is the best we’ve had at any coffee shop. We make our own and are quite picky and would absolutely order again! We are self proclaimed food snobs who have catered small and large events with everything made from scratch. This is now one of our favorite places and we’re so happy to have found them. The service was friendly and helpful. We met the owners who are absolute gems and their staff exudes the same happy, friendly attitude. Must try. Must go back again and again. Thank you for a wonderful experience.“

“Kaelen Felix recommended this lovely restaurant. We enjoyed meeting the owner and her staff that helped us pick the best taco. She was right. We actually tried five different ones. They were all delicious. I particularly liked how they doubled up the delicious corn tortillas. The exciting spice and the crisp onions or salad toppings made a savory meal. we will be returning! We would recommend this to anyone who enjoys authentic food“

“My husband and I popped in for breakfast this morning. We were amazed at how quickly we were seated and served with as crowded as it was! Our breakfasts were delicious and service was excellent! We will definitely be back!👍🏻“

“First time at Failoni’s yesterday. Had pasta and marinara (I know, not very daring). The marinara can stand on its own. Wonderful. Loved the ambiance, neighborhood vibe. We were made to feel welcome right away. Was with two friends and we will be back!!“

“I was on lunch break was told food would be done in 10 minutes. waited 30. got back to work very late. To top it off the food was disgusting. I'm not sure if there was even a burger patty provided. what was om the sandwich was an over abundance of mayo and mustard like I guess I ordered a mustard and mayo sandwich. It was messy made the bun soggy and just all around gross. I was going to bring all my kidd back to eat and will NEVER EAR HERE AGAIN. A REFUND IS WANTED. 27 DOLLARS FOR 2 BURGERS 2 DRINKS AND 1 FRY AND THE PLAIN CHEESEBURGWR HAD ONIONS ON IT WASNT SUPPOSE TO. NEEDLESS TI SAY NO ONE ATE THEIR MEAL WE ORDERED ELSE WHERE AND I SUGGEST SKIPPING PAST THIS PLACE. NOT WORTH THE TIME IR MONEY WASTED.“

“I worked in the plaza that was right by the golden apple and every time I came in their staff was very welcoming. The food was great and it was really randomly priced. Their takeout option was great and honestly, I give this place out of 10 out of 10.“

“We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere can’t wait to come back!!! My husband had the salmon, rich and broccoli this was cooked to perfection! I had the fish tacos they were so good. Our desert was carrot cake & raspberry lemon cake they melted in our mouths. This restaurant gets 10 stars we absolutely love it!!!“

“First time and not the last time we dine here, God willing! 🙏🏼♥️🏁 Very busy place, but fantastic service, food, and experience! Josh answered the phone and was so helpful, friendly and welcoming! When we walked in Josh was on it, made us feel we were “regulars”, like he new us personally and Stacey, the hostess that seated us, was equally as welcoming and we were seated promptly. I don’t believe we got our kind servers name, but the beautiful young lady was on it as well. The chefs/kitchen were on par as well, hubby had one of the eggs Benedict with a side of biscuit and gravy, I had the Ranchers beef salad, one of the best beef and blue cheese salads I’ve EVER had, and believe me, I’ve had a “few” 😋🤫😊 Hubs also loved the huge coffee mugs his coffee and my Kahluah/hot chocolate(yum on this damp chilly day)were served in…this where my only complaint would be, my mug was chipped along the rim 😅 All that said, it was just a fantastic way to start our Sunday. Looking forward to sharing this spot with some more loved ones 🙏🏼♥️🏁“

“What a find! I was in town for a few days, looking for a place to read, and think! Each day I was warmly greeted and found the atmosphere to be peaceful yet busy and bustling! Beverage wise, the coffee and americano are all I can speak on— they were both fantastic and I plan to come back when I’m in town again! PS — Try the s’mores cookie!“

“First time at Taco Buddha! Great food! Great staff! Staff went up above and beyond to help with my order, today! Thank you for such Great customer service at the Kirkwood location 💕“

“Delicious and I feel naughty when I’m eating it too!“

“The best chai tea lattes and chocolate chip cookies ever! I just read the back story of the owner and now I am more enthused to wholeheartedly support this shop.“

“We were in town (from the Twin Cities) for the 2025 President's Day Classic, and had Hogtown Smokehouse cater a team (and parents) dinner for 30 in our hotel. Rico was fantastic in helping us out. Quick to respond to calls and emails. Gracious, and just wonderful altogether... and that's just the service. The food? The empty pans, told the story. Brisket, Turkey and Pork for meats. Mac & cheese, potato salad and beans for sides. EVERYTHING was amazing! I never right reviews, but Rico and staff deserve this one. If you're reading this, don't hesitate to give them a try. Thanks again, Rico!“

“I’ve ignored this place over the decades, assuming it was a typical dive bar. A friend assured me the food was great and I should try it. Understatement! Believe it or not I’m a hypercritical person but I could find no fault at Michael’s. During both of my visits, everything everyone ordered was cooked and seasoned beautifully. So far I can highly recommend the Greek salad (standout among the large number of Greek salads I’ve tried), the rack of lamb and the galaktoboureko - a house-made dessert consisting mainly of a fluffy custard and phyllo dough. Even the side vegetables and rice were wonderful. The beer and wine selection was good as well and I wrote down my wine to look into buying a bottle. The many servers were extremely busy and professional and our server Amy did a helluva job. Large rack of lamb with sides, entree-sized Greek salad, two beers, wine and dessert for only $80 -which for the quality of our dinner was quite a bargain. Generic name belies quality cooking and serving! Pass it on!“

“We rented the ice cream truck for our wedding. It was a big hit. especially for all the kids. They showed up on time and were so sweet. They had all the ice cream in stock and very professional. Highly recommend!“

“It was such a great time! Food excellent, wine even better and the atmosphere was so awesome. Low lighting just a great vibe“

“Visiting from Northeast PA. The food was delicious. highly recommend going here for a traditional diner style breakfast.“

“The chimichanga is fantastic and I can't get enough of the rice. So good!“

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

“They recently created a custom cake for a military family celebration and it turned out beautiful and - was delicious! Everyone at the party commented on how delicious it was. They customized it exactly how I specified and Gigi decorated it beautifully! Highly recommend!“

“Yesterday was our first time there. Food was really good, will definitely be back.“

“The prairie village location was SOOO GOOD!! We went on opening night and the staff was speedy, friendly, and professional even though they were slammed. Worth it for the price compared to other ice cream shops in the area. This will definitely be a new regular spot for us.“

“Best ice cream around! Their concretes, cones, sundaes awesome.“

“Best chicken shawarma in the area by far. The sauces are delicious and the fries are seasoned with the perfect blend of spices that bring them to life. Great, fast service too!“

“Cute neighborhood. Fantastic greenhouse & garden area. I could have spent all day with the plants. 🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴“

“Great dining experience. Attentive and engaging wait staff. From the opening cocktails to the meal finish, all selections were uniquely and well prepared. Created one of those memorable meals that will be discussed many times in the future.“

“Love everything about Mack's! Mack and Tommy are some of the best people you will ever meet! the food is great and the staff is wonderful! I had a birthday party there and I plan to have many other events there too! the Sunday Fine dining is some of the best food I've had! 5 stars hands down“

“First time at Taco Buddha! Great food! Great staff! Staff went up above and beyond to help with my order, today! Thank you for such Great customer service at the Kirkwood location 💕“

“At La Vie Vegan, every dish is a beautiful reminder that plant-based cuisine can be just as rich, flavorful, and indulgent as traditional fare. The attention to detail, elegant presentation, and creative use of ingredients truly set them apart.

If you’re in the St. Charles area and haven’t visited La Vie Vegan yet, do yourself a favor, it’s not just a meal, it’s an experience that celebrates the beauty of mindful, French-inspired dining.“

“First time going and loved the vibe/decore!!! Met the owner and so enjoyed her and the hospitality!!! Definitely will be going back!! The food/drinks/music was so enjoyable!!!“

“This place is so good. Relaxing atmosphere, great service, and the drinks are to die for. My husband and I aren’t big drinkers but we will be back for sure.“

“Wow this place was amazing, I cannot wait to go back next time I’m in town!!! The menu was a unique take on brunch familiar brunch items. Everything sounded so good it was tough to decide what to get. We all got different meals to share and all of it was delicious! And pretty big portions, oh it was SO good. I had a medicinal mushroom coffee tasted great and had me feeling great all day.“

“My husband and I came from out of town for a date night, and this was the perfect spot. Easy parking, table was ready when we got there, friendly staff, delicious food. We had the OG Pepperoni Pizza and the Cacio e Pepe. Both outstanding! Definitely worth driving from outside the area for!“

“Long much needed POSITIVE Post. Please scroll to the ***** to see what I got. I was working a private event with Blues Fired Pizza on Saturday and as I was closing the truck door to begin prepping and service, a friendly warm voice from an older gentleman said “Hello!” From the side as he was talking to the event coordinator. After shift I stuck around to wander the area and wanted to check out their truck. I met Steve (that friendly warm voice that had greeted me hours before) and he asked me how I was and how we did. Asked me if I’d like to order anything. I was shocked because I didn’t want to assume I could also order- having not been part of the event. I asked if it was okay and he said “Sure! We have to take care of our own!” With a genuine smile on his face. I heard stories of this industry being a cut-throat business. I was more than willing to pay for my pizza but Steve assured me it was okay. (I did drop a tip in their tip can) 🙂 ***** I had the 8" Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza. Garlic/Ranch Sauce, Chicken, Bacon, Jalapeño, Cheddar Cheese and Mozzarella Cheese. (Pictured) It was AMAZING! I’m so tired of these big chain pizza places and I’m sooo happy that I went to Blues Fired Pizza’s truck! The dough was fresh, soft, and had that fire oven taste and crisp. You can tell the dough is made from scratch. I’ve driven past them numerous times in Kirkwood at their little pizza shack… but never stopped in. I’ll be glad to come by and order for sure! I greatly appreciated the hospitality. It was a great service and experience. Thank you, Steve!!! It was very nice to have met you, Sam, and Brian! I hope to see y’all sometime. -The other Sam.“

“Great place with great beer & cocktails and friendly staff!!“

“Super cool atmosphere. Trivia was soooooo fun! Great selection of beers and other drinks. Amazing bar tenders. Did not see the cat that is usually there so sad about that. Saw a different cat and 2 cute dogs. Amazing amazing amazing place! Please visit. Great experience! The drink I got was the “porch stuff”“

“We went yesterday after a hot but wonderful trip to the zoo. When I tell you the staff was probably the most amazing people I’ve ever come in contact with…I would not be lying! They were beyond friendly & sweet which is the best to encounter when you’re a tourist! The ice cream was top notch & I can’t stop raving about! Thank you for a great sweet treat ❤️“

“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.“
