“Had a wonderful experience! Delicious coffee and nice staff!“

“Amazing vibe as soon as you open the doors. Its cozy, and relaxed, with an eccentric touch of mismatched furniture. The coffee is strong, the sweets are divine, the book are well loved. Not sure what to get ask the staff to pick! I did and got this amazing banana bread tasting iced coffee.“

“great place, food, and people!“

“We ordered a huge order and it was ready at requested time and the food was amazing!!! We had 48 chicken strips and 12 orders of fries with sauces. Everyone loved the food and it was so filling we had a ton of left overs!!!“

“cold brew and a chocolate chip cookie!“

“The staff at Koffee Ko were warm and welcoming. The coffee and the cheese danish I had were delicious! The regulars were well taken care of and doted on. This place is a gem. 11/10 Would recommend. Brightened a gray December morning for me.“

“The best coffee shop in the Midwest. The go-to is the pour overs. Bring a friend. This is a place for people whose brains light up when they taste coffee they've never tasted before and it just stimulates all of the senses. The people who roast and brew are absolute nerds and they do a lot of work to resource coffee from across the globe.“

“Just found this place and I'm so glad. Friendly, efficient, affordable, great place to work and relax, wonderful alternative to chain coffee places. I'll be back!“

“Tried their Gateway Blend coffee and it is delicious!“

“Sugarwitch is a queer-owned business with a few rotating vegan options for their ice cream sandwiches. They serve drinks (coffee, tea, & specials) and also make custom ice cream cakes. Sugarwitch is frequently selling their sandwiches at Tower Grove’s Farmer’s Market as well as hosting/sponsoring other community events. They also gave me some free vegan peach almond “hexes” with my order once when I suggested expanding their vegan options in an online order. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-15“

“Delicious fresh and healthy!“

“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 🙏🏼♥️🏁“

“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!“

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

“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 :)“

“Super smooth Americano-great conversation with staff. Delicious food Would come back for sure“

“Uniquely cultivated space for coffee and community. The most opposite you can possibly get from a Starbucks.“

“Love this place and their bagels are sooo so good! Sometimes I buy a fresh bagel with cream cheese but usually my boyfriend and I order day old bagels off the too good to go app! They are discounted there, and we have bagels in our freezer throughout the week! I will say, we were told by the front of house woman with the dyed hair that “the too good to go app is to try the restaurant out, and then start purchasing regular bagels” which I absolutely do not agree with, and will continue to buy the discounted bagels weekly unless she can figure out a way to ban me off that app.. The other, younger woman who works behind the desk is absolutely lovely though!!“

“Attended a church conference in St. Louis and was recommended to check out this spot for some really good coffee — and it did not disappoint! ☕️ The coffee was delicious, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved it so much that we placed an order to have their coffee shipped to our home! Bonus — you can even choose your grind. This will definitely be our new go-to coffee shipment! 💛“

“Great family atmosphere! Excellent fine dining.“

“We stopped in to grab some breakfast because it was close to our VRBO rental and it had great Google reviews. My only complaint was they were out of sausage when we got there. But we just got the bacon breakfast sandwiches. We also ordered a tea and iced latte. Our food and drinks were very delicious! There were only 2 people working and they were busy so it took a little bit to get our food. But it was very good!“

“Love the coffee and treats at Perk It Up! Everyone there is always so kind when I stop in! Great local business!!“

“Great service, amazing gelato!“

“amazing owners who adopted a shelter dog with a horrible start to life“

“I want to give a HUGE s/o to the CLAYTON Berrybox. A specific thank you to Ashlyn(spell check the name) and the morning crew on 4/22. I am currently on crutches and can’t move the fastest. I called and asked if curbside delivery was an option. Ashlyn said no, but then replied “how far are you and I’ll run it out.” That’s the definition of customizing customer service for each customer. Thank you Berrybox this has truly made my morning! And of course the açaí bowl was on point and fresh PER USUAL!!“

“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 ❤️“

“I had the opportunity to meet Vanesa this morning and it was a great coffee/matcha experience. She was very attentive to my unique order and everything was perfect. I had her make a double americano with half caffeinated and half regular. Perfectly concentrated flavorful americano. I also had an iced matcha made up with no milk and slightly more concentrated… she knew to add less water to the cup so it was just right! Stop by this lovely shop it is a gem and a wonderful experience. Her prices are very fair compared to other shops too…so please tip well. Thank Vanessa for her service while you are there!“

“Tried their Gateway Blend coffee and it is delicious!“

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

“The items from this est. truly scrumptious! The staff is very courteous and helpful.The snickerdoodle cookie isn't pintsized. At least 5 in. across. And delicious, too! I recommend this place.“

“Tried their Gateway Blend coffee and it is delicious!“

“Please go here! Not only are the cupcakes delicious, but the staff was so kind. Our group was walking back to our car when the tornado sirens started going off and the green suddenly turn nasty green. It was terrifying. We dashed into their storefront. The staff was calm and went out of their way to make sure everyone was safe.“

“Had one of the most amazing Omelettes I’ve ever had while picking up some equipment downtown today. Don & Lisa are diamonds and we enjoyed every second. If you’re anywhere near here, run, don’t walk & go get a breakfast or brunch. They even had a wonderful coffee and hot sauce bar. Highly recommend the smoked Salmon. Amazing!“

“The food is always the highest quality“

“Stopped in very late had a good chai and coffee. Quick and kind service. Cozy seating.
Update (years later) great service, go early before it gets very busy. Arrived 830, long line. I orders bottomless drip, enjoyed tasting the varieties, Kaldi was the fav but that's a dark roast (Charbucks has ruined me). 2 fried eggs, though the menu says poaching is an option it was not) and avocado mash. No poaching and a little too much lime on avocado reason for lost star. Will return.“

“Great service with a wide selection of froyo options. My husband and I both got froyo and a boozy beverage. Loved everything! We stayed a played cards for a bit, such a great idea to have games! Fun for all ages. (Discovered my husband doesn’t know how to play uno 🤣)“

“If I could give six stars I would! My partner and I are big scooters fans and we only come to this location a few times a month when we do laundry down the block. The staff is always incredibly kind and attentive. Our orders are always made correctly and with love!
The wonderful woman who works the drive thru window on the weekends who’s always covered in sparkles is an absolute gem!“

“Such a neat coffee shop and the avocado toast is amazing. Love the outdoor seating.“

“I just tried the Margarita IceCream and it was a dessert before during and after dinner! I highly recommend it!“
