I do agree with this establishment's art mission. But, I find their policy very contradictory to the mission. Apparently, it's a literary and film art establishment. They have books there and they have art films they display. The books seem to be for display purposes only. You can't borrow them or take them home to read. I've never heard of a cafe with a library that prohibits their patrons from borrowing the books. It's almost unheard of but this is the standard at high/low. Also, the service there is obscenely slow. It took them about 15 minutes to churn out a breakfast sandwich and an orange cardamom latte. When I unwrapped the sandwich the first thing I saw was how it was poorly wrapped and made. If you like a southwest breakfast sandwich this may be for you. But it wasn't a good sandwich for me. The bell pepper taste was overpowering and there was hardly any sausage in the egg scramble. Also the orange cardamom latte was so small. Total amount that I paid was well over $16 for the beverage and a poorly made breakfast sandwich. I don't think I will be going back there.

Located in Lafayette Square, Forrest Gallery is a jewel. The space is small but has an expansive…read morefeel, featuring stained glass details, a sparkling crystal chandelier, and an array of landscape paintings by the gallery's owner, Barbara Forrest. In addition to strikingly rendered landscapes, the gallery features jewelry and ceramic pieces, all invitingly exhibited and fairly priced. When I visited Barbara was not present but her husband was on site. I enjoyed hearing about the specific inspirations behind each of the artworks and plans for future work. Many of the landscapes are rooted to nature and the artist is currently at work on a variety of scenes of St. Louis to commemorate the city's 250th anniversary. One thing that I noticed upon entering the gallery is a book featuring prints of landmarks - The Gateway Arch, Fox Theatre, Forest Park, Busch Stadium, and many others - from which customers can select to build their own, customized triptychs. Prints are available in a variety of formats- from minis to larger prints and framed/matted or unframed. The primary medium is watercolor, although one of the paintings on display features special, Japanese paper that lends an almost quiltlike effect to the composition. The level of detail is striking, in some cases arresting, and invites the viewer to become immersed in the subject. I was drawn to a watercolor of Lafayette Square houses in a row. The frame and mat perfectly offset the painting and make it one-of-a-kind. For those unable to make it to the gallery, or who want to get a feel for the works on offer before visiting, I recommend the artist's web site as a good starting point.

My favorite store in my hometown closed years ago. A little eclectic shop just like this. When…read moreplanning my trip to St. Louis, I decided to google Fair Trade St. Louis, and this place came up. I don't know if it's a good or bad thing that it did. I met my St. Louis BFF, Lynn! I ended up spending a lot of money between the two stores. And Lynn, who helped me out on Saturday, didn't tell me about the Delmar shop so I think she was trying to protect my pocketbook (a valiant try, Lynn!). I spent close to two hours here wandering around and looking, trying things on and being indecisive. Luckily (for me, at least), only a few other people came in while I was there. Statuary, jewelry, clothing, incense... and it's a big space. I'm not an incense person, but I have *really* missed buying great jewelry. And I bought plenty of it. They have great semi-precious earrings, necklaces, bracelets, bangles... I also bought a pashmina scarf, a Buddha and a Kwan Yin statute for my office. Can't wait to visit again, but it's a good thing it isn't closer!
