“Very noisy at lunch. Hard to hear across the table. Lunch was wonderful, food was great, Margo did a wonderful job servicing us. Gave recommendations and kept us in drinks and popovers. Really classy place for a girls lunch. There were several men also and my husband has been with me many times and also likes it. Chocolate cake was out of this world. Thank you for a great birthday lunch,“

“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!!“

“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 🙏🏼♥️🏁“

“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 ❤️“

“•Great staff •Great food •Excellent Coffee“

“Delicious and cheap! 10/10 would recommend! We came for breakfast and one of us hates breakfast so we got breakfast and lunch which is hard to find in one place! Big yummy biscuit too! We will def be back! Cheers to cheap good food on the loop! 🍻“

“Went to the High Low Blueprint in St. Louis. I had a fantastic pot over based on the recommendation of the barista. The excitement was also great!“

“Love the staff and atmosphere. Family friendly, great for a coffee playdate with nice play area for little kids. The natural light and courtyards make a great environment for creative work as well. The staff is especially kind showing genuine care in the community and many regulars.“

“We hosted a small networking event at Shaw's and had a wonderful experience! The staff was nice, efficient and accommodating. The chai-tea-latte was delicious and the crustless quiche was a popular choice. We were able to take over a few tables and have conversations with ease. It was such a quaint location on The Hill and did not disappoint. Definitely recommend :)“

“They talked me through each coffee. Made the right choice and it was delicious! Definitely going back.“

“My sandwich and coffee were very good. We can in to a very busy shop. We ordered and got our food in a timely manner. The music being played was fun and added to the vibe! We will be back for more whole bean coffee. We are giving the summer profile and two of the espresso blends a try. Keep it up! A wonderful shop you all have put together.“

“Good restoran but I don’t know it’s Turkish, or Arabic name of restaurant, Arabic and food Turkish“

“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.“

“I got the steak bowl with rice, chicken spring rolls, and banana Boba. all of it was so good. the bowl was so flavorful. I will definitely have to come back soon!!“

“My favorite place to get a latte.“

“Everything was absolutely perfect. The waitress was very sweet and professional,💘 A great breakfast, food was cooked to perfection..Super clean and organized.....Absolutely amazing first time at a restraunt..We will return even though it is pretty far from my home.💘💘💘“

“Wonderful owners who were so nice from the very first time they met us. Their desserts are the best I’ve ever tasted!“

“The Le Macaron treats were a highlight of the night they were superb. I would highly recommend them for any event. And the owneris very pleasant to work with 👍“

“Pulled into HIVE Cafe with my kids while my car was getting worked on down the street… honestly just needed somewhere to survive for an hour. Instead?? We found a hidden gem. The food was so good my kids went silent… which honestly felt medically concerning at first. The service? So friendly I briefly considered asking if they wanted to adopt us.And the space? Cozy, clean, and cute enough to make me forget I was there against my will. At this point I’m not saying I want my car to break down again… but I’m also not not saying that. 11/10. Would fake a mechanical issue to come back.“

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

“Jeff, Alex, Malik (sp), along with everyone else does a great job making sure my order is correct and are always friendly! This is my home Starbucks!!“

“Great service, amazing gelato!“

“Maplewood Deli & Coffeeshop = an absolute local treasure. ☕️✨ Charming as heck, perfect location, and the space is laid out so well—cozy but not cramped, great size, and just a really inviting vibe whether you’re grabbing-and-going or hanging out for a bit. The menu has tons of solid choices (the kind where you want to try five things), everything we had was excellent, and the service? Truly top-notch. And you can feel the heart behind the place—the owner is hands-on, warm, and genuinely friendly. Also… it was busy today with a steady stream of customers, so I’m pretty sure the secret is officially OUT 👏 Highly recommend. Not your average coffee shop, and if you prefer local, go check them out. 💛 #Maplewood #SupportLocal #CoffeeShopFinds“

“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.“

“I hosted a celebration of life for my mom at Lydia’s and they made it so incredibly special. They were fully staffed with the most amazing people and we never ran out of yummy treats. I have always loved Lydia’s but now they hold a special place in my heart. And Lydia was so kind and thoughtful. I can’t recommend them enough, they have a customer for life!“

“Donuts were great!! Quite surprised.“

“Great service here every time but they clearly don't wash their shakers. I got a drink that should in no way have banana involved in the flavor and it tasted overwhelmingly of banana. Ruined the drink for me personally, I had to throw it away.“

“We love this cafe - great coffee and great customer service.
Please, please, please find a source for gluten free pastry options - most local cafes offer this, and so many people can't eat gluten b/c of celiac disease and other health issues.
I appreciate the kind baristas!“

“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!“

“Went to the soft opening tonight. The grand opening I think is May 8th. The bubble tea is amazing and the owners are super nice! We sampled lots of stuff and loved our orders. Can’t wait to go back!“

“All the employees are super nice and even when it’s busy I’m in and out of the drive through pretty fast. The drinks are always good and the atmosphere is really welcoming. Definitely one of my favorite places to stop for a drink!“

“Seriously the only good coffee place around in St Charles. Not watered down, strong espresso in the lattes, no cheap syrups. I basically come every other day and love this place. Definitely worth the money . Ppl say it’s expensive but Starbucks is the same for really low quality. So is seven brew. More coffee doesn’t equal quality. I rlly love the quality I get from Kaldis.“
