“As far as food quality, I think this may be the top Panera / Bread Co in the area. The last few visits it has been good and the staff have been on top of things. They seem to have given up on pagers and you'll have to ask for your drink cup at the counter, they don't put any out. Yeah, it's spendy for what you get, but so many places are these days.“
“Internet was out, meaning it was a slow process and long line to order, but the staff was doing their best and cheerfully helpful as they could beParking: Parking wraps around the building, and while there weren't many spots available there were several -right after church, tooKid-friendliness: Always get the Mac n cheese for the kids, to the point my son (6) got UPSET I presumed to guess that would be his order- he went for a bagel instead lol. Staff handles his practicing ordering seriously“
“I’m a regular here and frequent during the warmer days, this place right here is like no coffee shop I’ve ever been too. If you have time please check it out, there is a Starbucks the same distance away maybe even closer and I go out of my way to come here because of the fantastic coffee and staff.“
“We frequent Teleo Coffee with our family after moving to St. Louis. As a European, in my first months living in the US, I visited so many coffee shops where I could feel the cozy atmosphere and smooth, delicious coffee like in my homeland, and I found it here. This place has become like a second home to me, especially thanks to the friendly baristas and owner of the establishment. This is the very moment when you come to this cute house with a huge bright veranda and they greet you and call you by name. They also participate in donations, helping different organizations during certain periods with a small percentage of drink sales, which is amazing!P.S. Barista Sarah recommended the Lavender Vanilla Latte to me on one of my first visits, and I've been kind of addicted to this latte ever since. Highly recommend. Thank you, Sarah!“

“I recently visited Have A Cow Cattle Company and overall had a great experience. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. However, I did notice that after the checkout process, there wasn't much interaction with the staff. Despite this, the service was still efficient and the food made up for any lack of interaction. I would definitely recommend trying their dishes and enjoying the peaceful ambiance at Have A Cow Cattle Company. I would give them 4.5 stars.“
“Out of all the coffee shops that I have visited within Saint Louis, this is by far the best cafe I have gone to. Whether it be the coffee or pastries, every item that I have tried on the menu has been unforgettable. My personal favorite is the dulce de leche with oat milk. It is sweet and consistently tasty. Not to mention, the environment/staff are friendly, the prices are affordable, and I find myself getting the most work done when I do choose to study.“
“Russell’s on Macklin is such a staple. It has a cozy and relaxed ambiance with a fireplace offering locally sourced American cuisine.Located in the Southampton neighborhood of St. Louis, it’s a family-run restaurant that prides itself on warm hospitality and mouthwatering dishes reminiscent of home-cooked meals.From their homestyle cooking to freshly baked goods, Russell’s on Macklin caters to both the brunch & dinner crowds. The menu features elevated versions of classic American favorites, highlighting the best seasonal ingredients available.I had the broccolini salad and lump crab cake. Both were delicious. I also shared in the cheeseboard.Don't forget to indulge in their tempting gooey butter cake.“
“The staff are SO kind and welcoming + hands down the BEST matcha in St. Louis! Every time I visit, they make me feel at home and are so kind and sweet. They have plenty of delicious vegan food options, a clean and adorable sitting area, and an insanely good range of tea. Absolutely 12/10, six stars!“
“I really loved my time here. The staff was very friendly and approachable. They were more than happy to help with games or menus questions. The overall atmosphere was very laid back. My guest and I were there from about 4 pm to 10 pm, and no one pressured us to order anything. They kept our water craft filled and occasionally popped in for friendly conversation. Their color coded flag system at the table is an Ingenous idea to alert staff to your needs. I really appreciate not having to scan the room like an anxious child looking for my server and begging for eye contact so I can flag them down. If you are someone with severe social anxiety like my guest, this Is a pretty solid place.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian sloppy Joe sliders were very good.“
“This is my overall favorite place for coffee in St. Louis. Every cafe has their strengths but this one makes for my overall top rated cafe. Quality service, food, beans, and creativity on their menu all at a good price. Their bottomless drip is just a dollar more than their large, which is very good value!“
“I am ashamed to admit from the get-go...our food looked so good when it arrived at our table we dug in before taking any pics! Ugh. Once I thought about it I had done enough damage to my salad and plate it wouldn't have been very appetizing. I will say this though...Valentine's Day, sneaking out for lunch with your sweetie, 65 and sunny, AND Union Loafers tees you up for a great day! Happy Valentine's to all and thanks to Union Loafers to making our day even more special. Ambiance is always fun, loud place. We each ordered a chenin blanc, the little gem salad with beets (my favorite salad in STL!). My wife ordered the Turkey Swiss and I had the Bistro Beef. Everything was just outstanding. Of course a loaf of semolina to go. Service was great as always, place was packed. Love, love, love Union Loafers!“
“I have been looking for a place that serves like a Cuban coffee shop, and I stumbled upon this place. I feel like this place is underrated because you would pass this time so quickly while driving through Gravois Street, but don't pass this place up and check them out!There are two stories in this shop, so there is plenty of space for all the guests considering studying here. I love the wood-styled table and chairs; it is a gem!I ordered an iced cafe latte and then the chicken panini.I highly recommend this place, and the service is fast!“
“This place is worth a try if you've never been. They have a huge amount of donut options. I enjoyed the butterfinger chocolate cake and the m&m chocolate cake flavor. My ham egg and cheese on a whole wheat bagel was hot and fresh. My husband says that the burger was mediocre, but he really loved his glazed donut. Friendly staff as well.“
“My wife and I stopped by this morning before a four hour drive home for breakfast. I had the smoked pork chop with eggs and a biscuit, my wife a vegetable omelet. Both were fantastic, the portions were large and the prices very reasonable. The service was great. Highly recommend.“
“Cute and clean with phenomenal food! I don't understand why this place isn't packed with people!! You can tell they put so much love into their food! I would eat here every day if I could! Hatch'd is a few buildings away and they always have an hour wait for Saturday brunch. This food is just as good if not better if you don't feel like waiting!“
“This place is amazing! The kitties are so cute, and the work the cafe does is great. The place is clean and inviting. I would highly recommend getting a reservation. You get a complimentary drink with your reservation or a discount on other things. This is a great place to spend an hour, plus you get to hang out with adorable kitties! ?“
“I absolutely adore this spot! I got the iced oat latte with hazelnut and a half focaccia sandwich. Everything tastes fresh and delicious! I want to go back for the gelato. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It has a modern look to it. The baristas are also very kind and helpful! What a cool coffee spot to visit!“
“So I used to live next door to this place.I had a fiance who was up to no good and pocketing the rent.When our antique row fairy tale ended they bought our building and expected me to pay some undisclosed amount of back rent (pay the rent again sucker! Yeah.sure.)instead of communicating what was going on from the beginning.I now still am unsure what I supposedly owe or how it affected my credit but I basically can't rent anywhere.Fun stuff.Anyway the hipster staff is snarky snobby and rude, but its comical to observe and that absolutely is part of its charm.Its a show.100% The coffee is THE BEST coffee I have ever had.I don't know what it is about it but man...it is VERY good.Amazing.The food is also amazing.Its an adorable place.I am embarassed to go there though I should simply be pturbed but yeah.I never have the money to go out for fancy coffee anyway but yeah...its good.Very good.“
“Just ordered delivery for the first time here and we loved it!! Everything was prepared well; the croffle is heavenly, rice crispy chicken was moist and fried well, and the Okonomi Toast was a delightfully different comfort food addition to breakfast. Will be eating here again, frequently!“
“The kitties were adorable, the staff lovely, the price great. I was only disappointed that there were cats I couldn't get to because they were caged or high up. But I totally understand kitties need their space. Also, we weren't allowed to pick them up, which was disappointing.“
“This restaurant is one of my favorites. Not only do they serve regular food, but they serve some of the best desserts I've ever tasted. When I tasted the desserts, I couldn't believe they were vegan. My favorite was the sweet potato cupcake. It was so delicious. The service was a little slow but they were pretty busy.“
“This was very first time eating here. The cuisine is excellent! I had the lunch special, Generals chicken for $10.99. Fast, gracious, attentive service once you are seated. However, they never even made eye or greeted me upon arrival, or after sitting down. Make sure you initiate it or you may be "waiting to be seated" for awhile lol.“
“Oh my goodness this place is so amazing. I think we will be seeing them grow quickly because it is so fresh and good. Highly recommend if you like bubble tea or even if you don't they have plenty of other drinks. They are so good about letting you have a small sample if you are unsure if you'd like a certain thing. That was me with the Taro which I loved“
“After a fantastic hike with the Black People Who Hike (BPWH) group, Anita's Cafe was the perfect refuel spot! Their brunch collab with Honeybees Biscuits was a winner. The biscuits and gravy were comforting and delicious. The drinks were just what we needed to rehydrate. I'm excited to go back and try their Mediterranean menu!“
“The charcuterie board I ordered was phenomenal!!! Also the best slice of key lime pie you will find in St. Louis (the owner makes it homemade!)The owner was so sweet and helped each of us at the table pick wine that we would enjoy. Thank you for the hospitality ?“
“Great brunch place. I appreciate the table service which was excellent. The menu selection was varied and I was very pleased with my selection of half a salad and half of a sandwich.Wheelchair accessibility: Zero grade entry. Tables and accessible bathrooms.“
“Love this place! Celebrated a birthday with a cute breakfast turned brunch. The drinks were delicious. The ambience to die for. It is completely IG/TicTok worthy. And the staff was so incredibly nice. Our waiter was outstanding. Probably some of the best genuine service I’ve ever received. I wish I could remember his name to give him his credit. I only deducted a star because they were out of the ingredients dish my friend wanted and the bacon and cheese potatoes were a bit over charred. But overall the food was delicious.“
“SO CUTE! The iced mint matcha was solid and the inside and outside aesthetic is adorable, clean, with a vintage decor flare. The greenhouse and garden area makes this place more than a coffee shop, but a cute afternoon activity! I’m excited to come back?“
“Bought a pack of cookies at the Festa Italia. We tried one cookie, then another, then another.....OMG these are some of the best cookies I've ever had. So, of course, we went back to your booth and got another box of cookies. Next time we're in St. Louis we plan on visiting the cafe to buy lots more to bring back home to Chicago.“
“I've only been here twice, but both times the drinks have been 10/10. I've gotten the strawberry one & the creme brulee dirty boba. They're both very good, but the creme brulee one is next level good, probably my favorite drink I've had from any of the tea places I've been to. And super pretty!! :)“
“Do Telva’s Turkish Eggs think about me too?But seriously.. I wake up and go to sleep thinking about the delicious Turkish Eggs and all the other incredible food at Telva. The service is great, don’t be intimidated by the line because it moves quickly. The ambiance is fun and be sure to walk off your extra order of Turkish eggs in the nursery below.Walk ins only but you can order ahead. Parking is street parking.Did I mention to get the Turkish Eggs? ? “
“I came here this morning for a Sunday brunch and to explore a new coffee shop in town. I love the space! It is very inviting and a great spot if you are looking for a place to study and enjoy good food. I ordered an iced caramel latte and the breakfast burrito. I enjoyed the burrito, but the iced caramel latte needed to be stronger in flavor and have less milk.The coffee shop itself has plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces. If the weather is nice outside, enjoy it with the outdoor spaces! I highly recommend this spot for a chill-axing moment.“
“the friendliest staff you will ever come across . I personally think they beat Starbucks . I have recommended them to everyone I know and I will continue to do so. I am up there enough for all I have to do is call when they answer the phone they know my voice and my number and automatically know what I want. cannot say enough good things about their coffee their food and their staff absolutely amazing“
“Very nice French bakery in St. Louis. They had an assortment of pastries, macaroons, and other baked goods. They have limited coffee but many teas on their drink menu. I got a slice of the raspberry almond tart which was incredible. There are a few tables to eat inside, but I took to go. Lots of street parking close by. I’d definitely stop by again when in the area.Parking: There is a lot of free street parking in the area. There are some locations that are restricted during certain times.“
“Coming from out of state, we were looking into a few bookstores to check out while staying in STL. When we arrived, we were surprised to happen upon the open mic night that had just begun. We really enjoyed our time listening to each heartfelt artist who shared their music with us. The drinks we got were decent and they had a nice selection of books too. Regardless, the open mic night ended up being our favorite event of the evening. It was a very wholesome experience. Shout out to the dad and daughter Duo, Mixtape Romance!“
“I stopped in here for brunch with my girlfriends Saturday morning and what a cute spot! I'd definitely recommend joining the waitlist at least 30 minutes prior as it was VERY busy; we did so luckily we only waited maybe five minutes before our table was ready. There was also plenty of parking out front of the street and additional parking on those side streets throughout Clayton. Between our table we had the fruit salad, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, the BLT and various lattes and everything was so good. Shoutout to our waitress, also, she was such a gem and very attentive. This is a great brunch spot and I'll definitely be back!“
“The wife and I love Espresso Yourself. The environment is nice and relaxed so you can enjoy that first sip of the day. They have a wide menu too with lots of fun varieties and flavors. I love that they have popular latte ideas because it helps when I’m wanting to try something out of the ordinary. Their banana fosters cold brew with the coffee cubes is 11/10. We have even gone on busy days (today during the race) and the baristas were super nice, helpful, and greeted us with a smile. For a line our the door, everything moved so fast and our drinks were done quickly. Check this neighborhood spot out for your next pick me up and you will not regret it.“
“This place has been in business for 5 years. West siders are going to say this place is on the West side. Northsiders are going to say this is on the North. Im from North so it's on the Northside. Lol Either way, I finally decide to stop on thru and was rewarded with some very good tasting food. They are known for their homemade ice cream and for selling breakfast all day during their operation hours (as of this review, they are closed on Sundays and Mondays) On the day I went it was too hot for me to get ice cream as a togo item so I got :Breakfast plate with salmon Croquet 3.5/ 5: 2 nice sized patties that were well seasoned ( too well season for me but I can see how the majority of their customer base would like them this way.Egg over easy 3/5 good but the yolks wasn't running like it supposed to bePotatoes 5/5 smothered potatoes; best ever I had from a restaurant hands down Wheat toast; 3/5 I would have prefer white bread. Im going to ask next time if white is an option. Plain Stirfry : 5/5 noodles and sauce were on point .portion size was huge They have a loyal neighborhood customer base and the food is cooked to order; so there will be a wait time.If you are on the North, check out Ari's !!“
“We visited this spot today. If you're looking for somewhere cozy, this is it. The "library" selections were very intriguing. The food tastes were on point. He had the chauvinist pig and I had the pulled pork nachos. Yummy yum yum. we will be back. Oh and covid 19 vaccination enforcement, was real. I can truly appreciate that. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The patio area was spacious and clean. I can't wait to visit again. thank you for being so polite.“
“Serving up traditional food that can delight our family, with a taste for our late Lola's cooking, AND a crowd of first-timers to Filipino flavors, I can't sing enough praises for STL Filipino Bread...though, I can try, thanks to the karaoke setup they made happen as part of a big family party we recently hosted in their shop.Food: Wonderful, whether you're a newbie looking for an accessible place to sample a variety of traditional dishes, or a Filipino foodie giving your own rice cooker a night off...I definitely recommend stopping by for takeout and baked goods!Service: They're always happy to help you find exactly what you're looking for on a daily basis, whether you're looking to grab a quick lunch or grab enough food to host a gathering. At the aforementioned family party---we couldn't have pulled off a celebration of a lifetime without all of their hard work to make it happen! The space was decorated to the nines, and every need we had leading up to and during the event was met quickly and with enthusiasm. Leah, Mary Beth, Anna, and Kuya Jojo felt like part of the family!Ambiance: Perhaps one of the most fun parts of STL Filipino Bread is how it is a "one stop shop" for items of cultural significance. I'm so thankful this place is here and helping share Filipino culture and food with the St. Louis Area!“
“Lovely atmosphere, though it's a bit small. I found seating somewhat limited as business picked up, so be prepared to stand or take-out during busy hours.I ordered a chocolate croissant and an iced matcha latte. The croissant was to die for all around, but I found that the matcha tasted a bit too milky.Overall, would recommend if you're looking for a cozy café experience!Parking: The parking was a bit inconvenient, but that's to be expected when you're in the city. There was a two hour parking lot shared between the local restaurants located behind the café, and some street parking and on-site parking. Nearly all of it was full when I parked.“
“Discovered this sweet space while looking for a work break between meetings in the Downtown area. Free Parking, ample space with plenty of workspaces to drop your laptop, and set up for a "working lunch hour." Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere for ALL!“

“Excellent service each time, which always makes a difference when you eat out. Delicious food, my go-to are the "2 for you" options. Salads, soups, and sandwiches are all delicious. Some items are not worth the price IMO, such as the pancakes. The tables in the far back can get loud, long wait times during brunch.“
“A wonderful experience, starting with the lovely ladies behind the counter, and extending to the great little grocery store attached to the restaurant.But let's be real, you don't come here for the ambiance, you come here for the cevapi! And boy does it deliver. Expertly cooked sausages, lots of raw onion, banana peppers, and sour cream. As usual, bring your appetite or be prepared for leftovers... the sandwich is about the size of your face!If for some reason you're still not full, there is a full service bakery to satisfy your sweet tooth. And the Bosnian coffee is top notch as well.“
“Visited the daily bread yesterday for the first time. Cannot wait to go back! Great service, friendly staff, clean surroundings, and great food! Their salads are huge, their sandwiches use the freshest meats, and their desserts are really difficult to pass up!“
“My best friend and I book a date at The London Tea Room every month, or so. It’s a gem, and we enjoy every moment we’re there.The atmosphere is charming and the staff is top notch. We always end our visit with a friendly chat in the gift shoppe where we’re greeted with delightful conversation about the latest tea flavors and best goodies to take home.Five stars just isn’t enough for this little piece of British charm.“
“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!“
“Had one of the yummiest burrito bowl I have ever eaten. It had grilled mushrooms, grilled red onions and grilled yellow corn served with a ball of mashed avocado over jasmine rice. It was priced at $15. Also had a very tasty chocolate chip cookie.“
“Though this is a small establishment with a limited menu, they excel! I’ve visited 4 times in 2 weeks and keep trying the same dish. The spicy pork belly rice bowl has me in a choke hold. It’s the perfect thing to warm you up and the flavors are so developed and complex for such a simple dish. I also love the spring rolls with beef and shrimp. I’ll definitely be returning.“
