37 Best Cafes near St. Charles

“Stopped in for a drink and received the *most* delicious Chai Tea Latte! Cute place with cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Everyone was extremely friendly and inviting. Definitely recommend!“

“The new location is beautiful. And the food was great as usual.“

“I like this sam's club location which is the only reason I'd recommend it. The only cashier this morning (11/25/23 8:28 am) was a total grinch. She was just rude for no reason. Why subject customers to someone so unfriendly? Put her on stock if she can't be basic polite.“

“My family and I stopped in to kill some time and enjoyed a couple coffees, hot chocolate, and pastries. I enjoyed a Van Gogh’s Milky Way and my wife enjoyed her grasshopper. My son had a chocolate chip muffin and it was really good. Great atmosphere and friendly employees. Definitely putting it on my list of places to stop at when on this side of town.“

“Met up with a friend today at one of my favorite brunch spots, First Watch. We went to the one located on Streets of St. Charles. Their fresh food, juices, and eclectic menu makes it so you can always try something new. They have specialties each month, and I suggest you go before the end of February and try their barbacoa chilaquiles breakfast bowl!! Today I had the morning meditation juice and the barbacoa chilaquiles breakfast bowl. The breakfast bowl was a party in my mouth! The braised beef barbacoa mixed with the eggs, beans, and other seasonings. My friend opted for the Italian Inspired omelet. You can put a reservation in online prior to arrival on busy days (like Saturday). The wait was not long this morning, and the food makes the wait worth it. One thing I like about Fresh Watch is the continuity across the chain in that regardless of which restaurant you choose the food is always good and fresh. Great service. Stop in and check them out…try something new!“

“la comida esta deliciosa !!! 100% recomendado“

“Food and coffee were what we were looking forward to because we have been on the road. The service was very disorganized... Where do we get our coffee cups? Where do we get our silverware? There were several people doing business on their phones and computers and were really loud which made the restaurant seem very chaotic. Anyway, the food was good and the coffee was even better!“

“Copper Whisk ☕🍳🇺🇸

🥐☕🍰
Copper Whisk gives off that polished casino café vibe, but it doesn’t always match expectations. Coffee is decent for a quick stop, nothing special but it does the job if you just need a warm cup and a moment to sit. It feels more like a convenience spot than a destination 🔄

🍳🥓💸
Once you look beyond coffee, things get tricky. Full meals tend to be overpriced for what you get, and the quality doesn’t always justify the cost. A lot of people mention the same thing — expectations go up, but the taste doesn’t follow 📉

🌅🍽️⚖️
As a simple coffee-and-snack place, Copper Whisk works fine — quick breakfast bites, eggs, something light before hitting the road. But for anything more than that, it’s probably not the place you’d come back for 🎯“

“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.“

“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!“

“Our family loved it. It’s a cute little place with delicious (and aesthetically pleasing)treats, and the employee was very friendly. There are tables, seating for 2 mostly, and K-pop which my daughter also loved. We’ll definitely return!“

“A small and wonderful Boba Tea cafe with smoothies, coffees, sparkling juice sodas, bingsu shaved ice desserts and more! They have games to play in the cafe. Everything can be customized on the order screen- type of milk, how much ice, variety of boba, sweetness level and more. Just tried their chocolate bingsu— amazing! And seasonal hot coffee was great.“

“Beautiful little cafe with delicious horchata! The chorizo bagel sandwich was perfectly cooked--nice and crispy! The staff are attentive and friendly, and I can't wait to come back for more! This is exactly the kind of thing I want when I look for new cafes to try!“

“I just want to say thank you to Cody for always helping me out. Cody is very knowledgeable and provides great customer service! I wouldn’t bring my bike anywhere else for a tune up or repair.“

“Amazing food and service! Julian was amazing and made our visit special by being attentive to our needs and providing excellent customer service when I came for lunch. Sushi was so good I came back and got another roll for dinner. Would definitely recommend this place!“

“Friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere, and great coffee!“

“Our waitress was friendly but a bit overworked. The Italian Wedding soup was horrible. No flavor, no Italian sausage and full of barley. The roast beef sandwich was good but had wilted greens on it and we didn’t like that. The ham and cheese sandwich was good. The atmosphere was a bit noisy.“

“I had a hot Pistachio latte and zaatar croissant. They were both delicious! The baristas were super friendly, knowledgeable and everything was fresh! The inside is beautiful and the seating is plenty so I stayed and did a little bit of work on my iPad. I will be going back and recommending everyone I know to go there as well!“

“Moving my reviews off Yelp. This one was originally published in 2016 but I was back multiple times. Great place!

I had never heard of this place before a yelp friend suggested we go there for lunch. Now that I know about them, I will certainly be back. In fact, I've already decided which of my customers will be my next lunch invite to the place.

I had a soup & sandwich combo. I was expecting a smaller portion of each that would add up to a whole meal. What I got was more like a whole sandwich and a bowl of soup with a fresh pretzel breadstick. Probably a meal and a half.

Everything was delicious! The au jus that came with their interpretation of a French dip was beefy without being overly salty. The bread was soft with a nice bit of chewiness. The beef was not the star of the sandwich and that was a little bit of a letdown. The high point though was the cheese. French dip is generally a very tasty sandwich but everything is better with brie! I also had their roasted red pepper soup. I probably should have consumed it first but I got really excited by the sandwich and that plan went right out the window. I did finish my soup and I enjoyed the salty, chewy breadstick very much. I ate more than I had planned to eat for lunch but everything was just so good!

A few quick observations:

* They seem to develop a line to the door at lunch. Go early, go late or plan to wait.
* Don't do the soup & sandwich unless you're really hungry.
* They have small brownies for a buck or so. I'm trying to avoid eating dessert with lunch these days but they were awfully tempting.“

“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!“

“We ordered two combo meals. One was pork adobo which was seasoned and cooked beautifully. The other was the fried milkfish which was over cooked quite a bit, but had good flavor. The meals were generously portioned and came with great sides, pictured. Great value for the price, very fresh!“

“I love the Circle at Crown Cafe. Terrific food at reasonable prices. Great people.“

“Avocado toast was delicious!“

“Good company lively crowd, and always good food 🥘“

“The current owners, Colleen and Bill are two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. We had a baby shower there and they were very accommodating. The food, service and atmosphere were great. Can’t say enough!“

“Don’t usually leave reviews. But wanted to this time. Amanda was my server. And she was spectacular. Super pleasant. Like you don’t see that much anymore. And the Works Omelette was perfect. Gotta admit my last few trips to First Watch (different locations) were not great. Almost gave up. But excited that they have locations that are still on it!!“

“Great bear claws & coffee ☕️“

“Amazing owner! So sweet and personable. I forgot my phone in the bathroom and she came three hours after closing to help me get it. We live out of state and were panicking. Absolutely grateful. She also makes amazing looking cupcakes!“

“Very friendly service. I live their guacamole and sopes.“

“Shout out to Jack for spicing up my daily visit with a little trivia today in the drive through! My apologies to the customer behind me, though, my classic rock knowledge needs some work! 😉 Made my day! Keep up the good work, friends!“

“I go to PB for soup.
Some time they fill full bowl, sometime almost half.
My friend had chicken soup but only 3 pics of 1/2inch cubes.
Manager always corrects it.
Suggest following :
1. Train and test your people regularly.
2. Use video at serving station for manager to see whenever...
3.for chicken, let us know how many cubes to expect in a large bowl or a cup.
PB is outstanding organization.They certainly don't want to shortcut on details.
Manag3nt has work cut out to address above problems.
PS: I am continuing to go to PB.“

“I come to this Panera a lot because my job is nomadic and sometimes I need time to be out of my car and get some things done. I came here today after a particularly stressful day and they happened to be out of the pastry I normally order. No big deal but they went above and beyond to accommodate me and get me a new dessert. They were incredibly kind and thoughtful and I appreciate the staff here“

“This is an awesome bar! If you hate cigarette smoke, it is not for you. You walk in, and you're automatically taken back in time to the good days. This place has great food, good prices, and great service! They have a homemade ranch that is amazing!!“

“Broccoli cheddar soup is to die for - turkey bravo is delicious! You Pick 2 is my #goto“

“This time was fine. But last time they forgot to put a sausage in my sausage sandwich.“
