It's a great local coffee shop with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that feels authentic and community-focused. I appreciated that it has more of a neighborhood feel rather than the typical chain coffee shop vibe. The coffee was good, and one of the biggest highlights was the price - it's very affordable compared to a lot of coffee shops nowadays. It's nice to find a place where you can get a quality drink without spending a lot. The service was friendly, and the overall experience felt relaxed and easygoing. It's the kind of spot that's great for grabbing a coffee, catching up with someone, or just supporting a local business. Overall, 4 stars. Good coffee, affordable prices, and a great local feel. I'm glad I took my friend's recommendation and stopped by.

Then theme was St Patrick's. They are small which is perfect because anything bigger would've sent me flying on the sugar! Each drink was different and thoughtful. The flavors blended well with the coffee. I would've liked to have tasted more of the coffee but I have no complaints. This round of flights was tasty with my favorite being the Lucky Charms which tasted like they infused cereal milk into the drink and the Clover with white chocolate, peppermint and vanilla with that striking green hue. They change their flights often, so give them a follow on FB and Instagram to keep up with what they have next.

The one in Maplewood is not that much inconvenient since it's kinda on my way to work, but having one in our area with a drive thru is definitely nice. The space is great for studying or working. They have two cozy rooms upstairs and 2 areas downstairs. Love their vibe too, especially since I love mountains and snowboarding. I ordered their Cold Brew with their Honey Bear cold foam. I love their Cold Foam because it was more similar to an Einspanner. Not sure if they are officially open yet or had their grand opening, but make sure to check out their hours before you start driving over there, just in case. Food available. Convenient parking. Drive thru available.

I stopped at 7 Brew off Olive around lunchtime today. That's not my usual time to go, but it's…read moreFriday and I definitely needed a little pick-me-up! I was planning to get my regular chai, but when I pulled up, I was shocked to find out they were completely out of chai. Apparently, I'm not the only person who loves it! The employee looked back at what I had ordered previously and helped me come up with a coffee option that wouldn't be too coffee-heavy since I'm not a huge coffee drinker. We decided on a Blondie with all the same syrups I normally get in my chai and made it extra sweet. It actually turned out pretty delicious! I could still taste a little of the coffee, but considering my beloved chai was unavailable, it was a really good replacement. Since I was there around lunchtime, I also needed something to eat, so of course I got one of my absolute favorites--the chocolate chip muffin top! I can never pass those up. I know people constantly complain about the lines at 7 Brew and how long they take, so today I decided to actually time it because I've always felt like the line moves pretty quickly. From the time I got in line until they handed me my drink, it was exactly 10 minutes. Honestly, I don't think that's bad at all! You can easily wait that long for a fast-food meal, and at least I know I'm getting a freshly made drink. I've always thought working at 7 Brew seems like such a fun job for a teenager. The location didn't have any music playing today, which I noticed because the atmosphere is usually pretty energetic, but it still had all the bright, colorful signs that make 7 Brew feel so fun and different from other drive-thru coffee places. Even though they were out of chai, the employee was helpful, I found a pretty great replacement, and I got my muffin top. Overall, still a successful Friday pick-me-up!

I've tried a few hot drink now from 7 Brew and I'm still not sure I am a huge fan (I am a Starbucks…read moreGirlie). Hopped off the highway for something hot with caffeine. The cup always seems lighter than expected. Maybe they use more foam than liquid? Accessiblity: Unfortunately this locations is not easily accessible. Hopefully once all the construction working is over you can enter off Olivette rather than driving through the shopping plaza to access drive thru. Service: Service at this location was also rather slow compared to the others. I had to wave to a worker to get my order because only one person was outside taking orders from one lane. A few cars came & place order after me and got through. The guy who ended up taking my order seemed as though he was having a day... Recommendation: Think I'll keep trying different flavors until I find "the one." Think I'll give their cold drink a try (not this location though).

People clearly love this place. At 8 AM on a Sunday morning, there was already a pretty good crowd…read more I've been doing meetups at local coffee shops for the past several weeks, and sometimes it's kind of a ghost town, even if the food and coffee is good. I'd suggest that people were there to visit downtown St. Charles, or whatever it's called, which has a certain old-timey charm to it, but everything else was closed--presumably until later in the day, but who knows. That fentanyl is a menace. Parking could be a pain, if it's not the wee hours of the morning on a weekend, and you're not ambulatory enough to walk from a block or two over, and yet you're going to get essentially the equivalent of a milkshake and a donut. Inside is rustic, inviting and larger than you'd think, with an upstairs area that I didn't bother to explore, due to lack of curiosity. We had a larger group and ended up pushing a few smaller tables together, plus a few chairs we borrowed from other tables. No one seemed to mind. The key is not to ask first. That mentality will take you far in both the world of finance and dating. I'm kind of over ordering food from coffee shops, where they're obviously just throwing something in the microwave and charging you $10 for it, but I needed something to eat. I'd just gone for a run. Their burrito looked like the textbook definition of cultural appropriation, but it also looked like it might not be half bad. I had their equivalent of an Egg McMuffin, called Ron's Breakfast Sandwich, or something to that effect. When I hear the name Ron, I of course think of Sasso from Carlito's Way, but that probably says more about me than anything else. I'm assuming he didn't have anything to do with this. Essentially, this was a store-bought English muffin, a surprisingly generous and delicious helping of cheddar cheese, a few slices of seemingly prepackaged black forest ham and a fried egg. It was fine for what it was. Could the egg have been salted, could the muffin have been buttered and could the ham been an actual slice of Canadian bacon, or even better, American bacon? Sure, but I went into this with low expectations. The cheddar was melty and delicious, and weirdly abundant, but processed American cheese would have been more fitting for this kind of sandwich. You'd think a guy named Ron wouldn't object to processed foods. The caramel frappe I had was amazing. I got it with whole milk and whipped cream. I didn't bother to check and see if they charge you extra for whipped cream, which is the kind of crap some of these places have been known to pull. I got the 16 oz instead of the 20 oz, but it was probably still enough to take a day off the end of my life (when I don't need it as much anyway fwiw). Sometimes, when a food item tastes good enough, you can just tell it's not good for you, and that was the case with this drink. It was decidedly rich. I'm never in this part of town, and if I were, it would be at night, natch, but if things ever get to the point where they're clearly trending in that direction, I might start stopping by on the reg and getting that caramel frappe just to speed along the process of my demise.

The shop itself is so cute and when you walk in it smells amazing! The staff is always so friendly as well. We have tried nearly every dessert but our favorites are the cheesecakes and warm date cake. There are so many varieties of cheesecakes and all that we have tried have been great! The honeycomb bread is also good. This particular visit we enjoyed the knafeh cheesecake and chocolate cake. I really enjoy how their desserts are sweet but not overly sweet. It's the perfect pairing with a coffee, which btw are also wonderful. Our favorite is the Mofawar. The spices in it are so yummy and we've enjoyed it both hot and iced. If you love coffee and desserts I think you will really enjoy Mocha Point.

When I check out a new coffee place, I look for two things: Is the coffee "good" to my taste buds…read more(this one probably goes without saying) and can I comfortably sit and relax long enough to read or have a conversation? Upshot offers both, with a bonus of delicious food. We'd never explored historic Cottleville before, and I immediately appreciated the setting. The surrounding streets and buildings bare a slight resemblance to the charm of Vermont. On a recent nice, near-Spring day, my wife and I knew we had to take advantage of the outdoor seating. Serene with a mild breeze, we would have liked to sit and read for an hour or two, if time allowed. I almost always go for a red eye when I visit a coffee shop for the first time, but there are alot of appealing alternatives; I might have to try Maple Bourbon latte on a future visit. Being a major fan of breakfast food, I had to order the hearty Brake Shop burrito, packed with scrambled eggs, bacon, cripsy tater tots, and pico del gallo. It arrived quickly, hot, and even more filling and flavorful than I expected. Beyond that, Upshot offers an ample menu of other breakfast and lunch options; my wife ordered a Turkey Sando and custom-made iced vanilla latte with oatmilk. We don't get that many beautiful days in the midst of St. Louis winter; I'm glad I could spend one at Upshot's flagship cafe, and excited to see how their other locations compare.
