Lovely staff, great coffee, and fun place to take the kids! Soda shots on Thursdays are especially a hit.

This place is amazing. We had shakes and pastries and did a little shopping. So many treasures and goodies to find! Definitely worth a visit!

Love this store, but today I stopped for lunch. I ordered the hot ham & cheese sandwich with chips. It needs to be called hot cheese and ham because there was only 2 thin slices of ham on it. I couldn't believe how little there was. Almost $12 including a glass bottled soda that I purchased along with the lunch special. Disappointed.

The owners are amazingly friendly...almost like walking into the "old days hospitality" local general store. Great coffee, homemade donuts and apple fritters made out of day-old donuts. Charming with great gifts and and cool Soda bar. Worth the trip!

Ellbee's is a mix of good and bad. I have visited the store several times over the last couple of years, thinking "I'll give them another chance". I think I've finally had it. For starters, they have yummy chocolate and candy treats, neat nick knacks, and lots of items on their menu to choose from. Actually never tried the garlic but it looks good. However... all of the items for purchase are on the more expensive side. I mention this because there is a certain brand of soap that they stock in Ellbee's and charge $7 a bar for, when I can find that bar in other stores for $5 a bar. Same with the oils, bath salts, and CBD. The nick knacks are all over priced in my opinion as well. Can find the same "unique" items at any other store for $1-2 cheaper. The dog treats they supply (I was a former employee of the company name that is on the dog treats) are priced $1-2 higher than other retail stores that stock the brand. Another complaint is the lunch specials. Time and time again I've ordered lunch at Ellbee's only to be disappointed. Whether it's because I've received chips that are fried so dark they look burnt, getting the bottom of the bag crumbs of chips as a side, or receiving a lunch special that was just plain gross... either way, I don't believe the lunch is worth $8-12. And also. The "frappe" drinks that are listed all sound so unique and delicious. But did you know that you have to ask for a shot of Espresso in order for the "frappe" to have any coffee in it? And the shot is an extra $1 on top of the price of the drink. A 16oz drink will cost you roughly $8. I can get a drink at Starbucks cheaper than that. And for the unique tastes and spins on their drinks, half the time they aren't blended thoroughly so there are large chunks of ice impeding the drinkability of the "frappe"(I'm sorry I refuse to call their drinks "frappe" if there is not coffee in them unless you ask to add a shot of espresso. Frappe literally means iced coffee drink!!!) The boba tea is not authentic tea, it is juice mixed together. Again, you can't call something one thing when it's a different thing entirely. The misleading labeling of their items makes it confusing when ordering. The prices aren't comparable to other places in the area, and the quality of the products definitely doesn't speak to a business that has pride in what it offers to the public. Unfortunately I have to give Ellbee's a 2 star because of these factors and I don't want to keep being disappointed.

My favorite place to go to in Wentzville! I've been here every other week for work and they have the best coffee/frappes in town. The shop is awesome and unique and you have to check out their back room! The people that work there are extremely nice and personable. Love this place!

I went to Ellbee's for the first time today and it was fantastic! My husband and I ordered online and it was ready by the time we arrived about 10 minutes later. The place was packed, so I'm glad we did. Cheaper than chain coffee shops in town and so delicious! Plus they have cute little notes on the breakfast sandwich bags. We loved it and will be back!

Hubby and I were in Wentzville and he was looking for a coffee, preferably from a local source. We Yelped it and found Ellbee's. It was easy to locate with decent parking. The store itself is like a coffee/candy/small gift shop. There is quite a bit of variety on all accounts. Hubby really enjoyed the coffee and the variety of coffee's. He also ordered a red velvet macaroon that we both tried and it was delicious! The candy selection really impressed me with all the variety.

Cute place to go for unique items. Love their ice cream cones. To be honest though, I mostly go here to support local businesses.
