50 Best Coffee Shops in St. Louis

“Nice urban Israeli breakfast, brunch and lunch place. In new redevopment district. (Craft Alliance is a few stores away.) Nice outdoor garden. Inside nicely designed semi industrial feel. Quite loud inside.

Vegetarian options: Most of the menu items are vegetarian with two exceptions - 1 a lamb pita and the other a shakshucka with lamb.“

“a soothing ambience - I stop in every chance I get.“

“Protagonist has the best cheerful, cozy vibes!“

“Coffee shop with a really cool atmosphere to work. Although the space is large and has seating options, you may find it difficult to get comfortable as there is a lot of movement in the place. There are coffee and food options. The internet is of good quality and the vibe of the place is pleasant.“

“Got an iced latte here..now I can't go any other place! The coffee here is excellent. Go give it a try!“

“Had a London Fog tea and an Oreo cookie. The cookies were very impressive in my opinion. I can’t wait to go back and and really glad they are nearby!“

“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.“

“Beautiful, delicious, coffee treats, amazing, friendly, smiling staff!“

“Very good coffee and pastries. I want to go back now that they’ve moved to a better location“

“Best coffee in Soulard! Live music on Saturday’s! Try the Goat Toast! It’s the best“

“The atmosphere and the staff were absolutely wonderful. Fantastic breakfast brioche and the iced coffee was amazing! Thank you for this lovely place in the city.“

“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“

“This place is great! Best chicken tenders and fries around. Much better than the chain chicken restaurants. Have eating here at least 5x with my family and everyone loves it. Try the macaroni bits.“

“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!“

“I’ve been to Shaw’s a couple times, and the atmosphere is pretty cool. The old bank vault makes for a really unique experience, and the numerous plants make the space feel more like a comfortable living room. The only downside is that it can be kind of loud when they’re roasting beans and it can make working remote from this location a little difficult if you’re in a call. Other than that, I give Shaw high marks. Their coffee and snacks are very good and it’s a great stop if you’re hanging out in The Hill.“

“Solid breakfast sandwiches and great coffee!“

“This is a must for great coffee and breakfast! The owner is super sweet and makes the most amazing ice cream. You can't go wrong by stopping in.“

“cold brew and a chocolate chip cookie!“

“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. :)“

“Really cool place and a nice atmosphere. I got the Casper and it was just alright. It was supposed to be pumpkin and white mocha but you couldn't taste it at all. The coffee flavor was great but that's all you could really taste. I would still recommend this place though! It is a really cool spot!“

“Great family atmosphere! Excellent fine dining.“

“excellent place for really good coffee“

“Food was delicious and service was excellent!“

“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“

“Today was my first visit at Perk It Up! The owner is very sweet (we had a great discussion about Education). I’ll definitely be coming in more often! The S’Mores Latte is delicious! I’d definitely recommend coming in and supporting a local coffee shop!“

“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.“

“I have the privilege of living 7 minutes from here and take advantage of it as much as I can. It is one of the best dessert places in STL. They have plenty of allergen friendly flavors. It’s inclusive and the staff are kind. I would give them 10 stars if I could.“

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

“Seriously one of my favorite places in St. Louis. GREAT food, my go to is the breakfast chopped cheese sandwich, but you won't go wrong with anything. Deserts are wonderful too, and the people and atmosphere are the icing on the cake. If you haven't been here, you're missing out.“

“Was in St Louis traveling for work and came across this coffee shop. Good vibes and drinks. The staff was consistently amazing. I can say that because I went 3x in one day. Broccoli cheddar quiche, Thai Coffee and peach iced tea were great. Again the staff was amazing. Thank y’all!“

“I am visiting from Hawaii and let me tell you with the jet lag and the temperature difference I’m struggling, but with this wonderful little shop they took care of me. I had a wonderful peppermint mocha that woke me up and got me warm. Aloha and mahalo??“

“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.“

“can't believe I haven't heard of this place before today. I went for a baby shower and was completely taken aback at how great the food and drinks were, let alone the atmosphere. The staff worked hard to ensure all of our expectations were met and I look forward to going back soon. It's truly a hidden gem in Crestwood. I also highly recommend the strawberry mimosa. It reigned supreme for our table.“

“Delicious fresh and healthy!“

“After my favorite water bagel place closed after many years (the owners became too old and ill to continue the business) I had to find another establishment to replace it. I am happy to report these are authentic, delicious, and provide a modern twist. The flavors are classic (everything) and new (rosemary salt) and the service was efficient. It’s completely out of my way but I will travel for what I crave and these bagels are crave worthy.“

“The fresh taro milk tea with real taro pudding is exactly what I’ve been looking for and is absolutely amazing. I’ve had a lot of good boba coming from Texas but this place honestly might be in the top places I’ve ever tried. 100% worth the ratings“

“You can’t go wrong with Kaldi’s! This shop is at a great, convenient location. I recommend their homemade vanilla syrup (in an iced latte with oat milk) and seasonal drinks; the egg bagel is awesome too. My only gripe is the codes on the bathroom doors, but I’m not sure if they ran into an issue that caused them to add them.“

“Me and my daughter love going here. it's our place. my fave is the Stl. Boot camp cold brew and my daughters is the hot chocolate. But most of all I love the people they are awesome and always in a great mood.“

“Best coffee in st louis- in my opinion... and those empanadas?! I think I have tried every flavor- they are all fantastic.“

“The food was so good that I only remembered to snap a picture after we had demolished it ? A dog-friendly front porch and back patio are available as well as some delicious and unique breakfast entrees and pastries. I especially enjoyed the sausage gravy we had as well as the Francier muffin. The cold brew was strong and smooth. Must try!“

“Coffee & Brunch at Church? Spirituality & Gastronomy! Routine & Ritual!This is a very unique concept! Tall ceilings with an open space offered tons of natural sunlight! It would be a fantastic place to work for thThe architecture was awesome to soak in while ordering and waiting!We had the Hill Breakfast Sandwich with eggs and pesto. It was delicious!“

“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“

“Cold brew w/ cold foam was delicious! They were nice and quick and the place was clean and cozy. I was bummed they didn't have nitro though it was on the menu. We got egg&cheddar biscuits and they were EXTREMELY crumbly, like eventually I gave up eating the biscuit part. The egg was dry. Would recommend a different food choice“

“Love this Starbucks, staff is awesome and one of the cleanest Starbucks I've been in.“

“Alli, the new Assistant Manager is simply amazing. She leads by example, multi-tasks with ease. She made this vacation of mine so much more fun each day for my daily Starbucks run. I was fortunate enough to meet the new GM on my way out and I can tell that this location will continue to be the best by far by remembering the importance of customer service and making the Starbucks experience what it should be.“

“a company that doesn't know how to take care of their own employees a good company!??? And especially with a creep 'Robert Carpenter' who just sits and slips beans, creeps in his female employees, and abuses his position by management with intimidating others!?? Not to mention Sara B who is just stupid as it comes!!! Treats her clients like they are dirt!!!! Not to mention Phyco path Cindy who is crazy as it gets!!!“

“Great little coffee shop located conveniently by the hospitals. Good menu selections and a nice vibe.

The food was minimalistic based on the price, but it was good. Very nice environment and great customer service.

Two avocado toast with two friend eggs and sausage was approximately $40.00.

They do however try and get you to tip STARTING at 18%/22%/24% for a place that YOU go and order your own food, YOU pick it up, YOU put it away, YOU get your own water, etc, which is a silly trend some places are getting into.

I do highly recommend though checking it out.“

“Love the Drinks And everything... Starbucks Is a Super Nice Place To Chill and Do Some Work Uninterrupted...
They're Super Friendly and Are Very Nice People Overrall Really Good On Bad Ish Think Is that the Prices Are SUPER high otherwise Good “

“?️ The absolute BEST Bakery with the BEST customer service I've dealt with in this city. Those 3 beautiful souls took care of a small miscommunication I had from the night before and helped guarantee my baby would have a grand birthday. And the icing on the cake is that they have gluten free products ?

I won't spend a dime in any other bakery as long as they're open for business ‼️“

“Another amazing meal! Thank you Luis Bucio for creating such an incredible restaurant and culinary experience! ❤️“
