The owners are amazing and so friendly! They remember orders and names after one visit. Great, affordable breakfast, smoothies, and coffee drinks. You won't regret visiting!

Service. Tried the Gooey looey. Super sweet. The lady who I think is the owner gave me a water. So charitable of her! I ordered a turkey sandwich to go. Just a cute spot. Cute decor.

Best coffee shop in Downtown St. Louis! The ube latte is the best plus they have really yummy desserts. Don't forget to try their home made ice creams, the best! The owners are awesome and so friendly. I will definitely go back when I am in the area.

From Maine visiting and this place is a sweet little gem! Lovely people and lattes. And you won't regret a milkshake with homemade ice cream

Adorable small cafe/coffee shop in downtown STL, you can instantly tell it's family owned and operated. The young man working at the counter was efficient and kind. He served up my drink and treats with a smile and was very sweet and patient helping a foreign elderly couple behind me get their desired breakfast sandwich. I went with a classic iced americano- decaf, which instantly hit the spot on a hot and humid Midwest day. In the bakery case they had some delicious looking sweet treats in the form of "bars" so of course I ordered a flight of all four to taste test. Here's my ranking- 1. Lemon Bar (if you like gooey and underbaked sweet things you'll love this, tart sharp lemon flavor but very very sweet) 2. Butter Cake (super rich and decadent, melts in your mouth but, be warned it's hard to take more than 2 bites of this at a time) 3. Classic Fudge Brownie (dense and thick with a deep rich chocolate flavor, could easily eat the whole piece) 4. Cookies and Cream Brownie (just skip this one, nothing special just a thick layer of cream cheese icing on top of the classic fudge brownie)

I have come here before work a few times and imo this cafe definitely beats Starbucks. The staff is always friendly and makes great drinks. I have yet to try their ice cream but their breakfast sandwiches are great. Their seasonal options are also quite interesting and they do offer rewards. I do wish they had lavender syrup though. My go-to is a banana muffin with matcha frappe.

After a very hot morning walking for hours at gateway arch, my family, including our large dog, needed air conditioning, water, food and of course gooey butter cake. The service we received was so generous and kind- just what we needed! Our dog got relief from the heat and was greeted almost immediately with water and a pup cup. We didn't even have to ask. Us humans loved the coffee, sandwiches and homemade ice cream. Wonderful place! read more

I decided to stop by a local coffee shop that uses Kaldi's Coffee beans, which I already love, so I was really excited to try it. I ordered a caramel and toffee nut iced latte, and it was super good. It wasn't overly sweet at all, which I appreciated, and the coffee itself was super smooth. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by who I assume was the owner, and she was so kind and was also genuinely excited that I came in. The service was also really quick, and she even had me try my drink before leaving just to make sure I liked it. They had a lot of other options too like ice cream, pastries, smoothies, and even bubble tea, but I stuck with my iced latte this time. There weren't a ton of syrup flavors, but they had all the classic options, which still worked for me. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this coffee shop if you're looking for spot with great coffee and friendly service! read more

This is a small cafe right next to the federal reserve. It is perfect if you want something in between a full breakfast sit down meal and a coffee kiosk. The owner is likely from the Philippines as there were multiple references to it in the artwork. They also had medals from their martial arts. I thought it was a nice touch making it a more personable experience . . . maybe it was just a deterrent for crime. Ha ha. I liked the place and worth stopping by if in the area. read more

We stayed nearby at the Athletic Club and this was the closest place to step out and get some breakfast. They had delicious freshly made sandwiches and coffee, as well as ice cream for later when it was 100 degrees. The staff were so very friendly, they went out of their way to thank us and recognize us on our return--they really do care about peple and deserve the local support!

Ordered a small caramel macchiato and it was delicious. It had the right amount of espresso & milk ratio. Definitely a good pick me up. The place was a little crowded when I got there because they almost make other drinks other than coffee. They also offer boba, milk shakes, iced teas & some pastries. I'm glad they are getting tons of business here. Lady at the register was apologetic for the long wait time but I think the line was not as bad and the service was fast. My review here is not only on the drink I had but due to the EXCEPTIONAL customer service i received from the lady at the register (I wish I would've gotten her name but if you're reading this, THANK YOU) . Long story short I spilled half my drink at the souvenir store next door and came back to grab a couple of napkins. Lady offered to re make me another drink and I told her it wasn't necessary since I still had some left. A few minutes later the lady walks next door and deliveries a brand new drink for me! I mean? C'mon how can I not leave 5 stars?! Thank you for being so nice! I hope this business gets more customers w/ my review! Please make a pit stop the coffee drinks are outstanding & so is the customer service. read more

Ordered an iced strawberry white chocolate latte with oat milk--the strawberry white chocolate latte was sweet, and the coffee was strong, but my one star off is because the strawberry tasted rather artificial. I wonder if the strawberry came from the powders behind the counter. Service was normal, ambiance was mostly quiet too. Some families and friends were there to buy the handmade ice cream. There are no outlets in this café. It is indeed just around the corner and within walking distance from the Gateway Arch National Park, a convenient location for those looking to visit. read more

Chose this spot because of the convenience factor (we didn't have time for a full breakfast but also didn't want fast food) and this cafe was on our way. So glad that all the good reviews brought this to the top of my google search! The owner is extremely kind, generous, incredibly knowledgeable about coffee and roasting, and makes THE BEST ice cream! Our coffee was great. Breakfast sandwiches were simple but tasty and very satisfying. The ice cream really stole the show, though. If I lived in St Louis, my go-to flavors would be the strawberry and the coffee. 12/10 good. Great community spot as well - tons of people came through while we finished our breakfast sandwiches. read more

This place is awesome!! Right downtown by the Arch, I will definitely be bringing visitors here. It's right by all the touristy stuff, yet not gaudy at all. It's a small locally owned shop with lots of local goods (kaldis coffee) and even home made ice cream. The ice cream was delicious!! I got cheesecake which tasted like NY cheesecake with a little hint of lemon, my partner got s'mores which actually has little marshmallows mixed in. It was a very creamy texture, thick and not icy. Definitely one of the top ice creams I've had in the area The cashier was extremely friendly and happy to answer questions. She even welcomed our pup with a little pup cup (whipped cream with a dog treat) and was so considerate to ask if he had any special diet needs beforehand. read more

This was the closest spot on the way to the airbnb so this was the choice. I do like the name too... have you been naughty or nice? It seemed their main draw was whether you want 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 scoops. The scoops were huge and they seemed reasonably priced. I can't remember exactly but the prices were something like 1 scoop(5 dollars), 2 scoops (8 dollars), 3 (10 dollars), all the way up to 5 scoops (15 dollars). Definitely more reasonable the more scoops you order. Maybe the 5 scoops are for naughty people and naughty people deserve the multi-scoop discount too. Anyway, I went with 2 scoops (Biscoff and Midnight Pleasures(dark chocolate ice cream). I couldn't resist adding honey whipped cream and cherries. Got it all in a waffle bowl. Biscoff - Delicious ice cream. Midnight Pleasures - I love dark chocolate. I prefer it. Not sure how I feel about this ice cream flavor. It was very rich and almost tasted dry(which is odd since it's ice cream). It tasted fine but I doubt I'd go to this flavor again. Honey whipped cream - I'm not sure I've ever had honey whipped cream and now I crave it. It's very specific but when you get that surge of honey... drool. Cherries - Juicy and delicious. Perfect for my bowl. We wanted to go back before we left town but got busy and weren't able to. The standout is definitely that whipped cream. I think it's a must-add for any of their ice cream flavors.

Everything was delicious, and everyone enjoyed exactly what they ordered. Whenever we're craving something cold, fresh, and satisfying, Ted Drewes is always the best choice for our family. Great treats, great atmosphere, and always worth the stop.

Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

Sweet and delicious treat for a hot day!…read more After leaving a nearby establishment, my husband and I decided to venture into Jeni's. This was a perfect ending to our date night. Upon entering, we were greeted by the workers and my nose became filled with the sweet smells of waffle cones, and ice cream. They have so many different flavors to choose from. If you are undecided, ask for a sample before deciding which flavour suites you. Prices are reasonable, and there is plenty of seating inside to sit, or take a stroll through the neighbourhood and enjoy! I opted to get a waffle bowl with gooey butter cake and brown butter almond brittle. Both ice creams were delicious. The gooey butter cake had pieces of gooey butter cake, and the brown butter almond brittle had almond brittle pieces in it. It was sweet, yet salty, and savoury. The waffle bowl was crunchy, and sweet. I will definitely be back to try new flavours!

So far we have tried the green mint chip, brambleberry crisp, butter cream birthday cake, honey…read morevanilla bean, double dough, cranberry panettone, wedding cake, gooey butter cake, and milkiest chocolate... and they have all been absolutely delicious!! You can taste the real cream and fresh ingredients. We love all the cake ones because they have actual cake pieces inside! The little waffle piece is delicious too. It's great to read their ice cream origin story on their napkins. This location is also a nice and heavenly smelling space, bustling in a good way especially at night. We always make a stop at Jeni's whenever we are in central west end, or even when we're not.

It is much finer and airy than what our shaved ice machine at home can do. All the flavors we got were amazing. We also got the dulce de leche, strawberry shortcake, cloud candy.

Note the vanilla has a strange butter flavor which isn't my personal preference.

It definitely did not disappoint. It was packed and filled to the brim, super generous portion and honestly a bit over the top but in the best way. The combination worked really well. The strawberry cheesecake added a nice creamy, slightly tangy balance, while the gooey butter cake brought that rich, sweet St Louis style indulgence. A really satisfying mix of flavours and textures throughout. One other thing I really appreciated was that they provided lactase which is such a thoughtful touch to make it easier for people who are lactose sensitive to still enjoy everything. It got pretty busy when I stopped by which says a lot about how popular it is. But there is plenty of space around for you to sit and enjoy the cold treat. Worth a stop if you're craving something sweet! Would definitely try just their ice cream next time.

This place was superb! Typically I do a little research before visiting a city but since I had…read morealready visited St Louis, I lacked this trip. To be a last minute find a place... that was close by, easy to get into and DELICIOUS! This place checked all the boxes. We went in around noon. We bought parking close to The Arch but it didn't start until 2 PM so we were trying to time it just right. We were here just over 1 hour. It allowed us plenty of time to eat and drive time to Arch parking. It wasn't on purpose but we both ended up with chorizo. I had a chorizo bowl with sunny eggs. I did want some fruit so I ended up with a side of fruit and 2 biscuits. The biscuits are droolworthy; Not enough places make biscuits like that. My wife ordered the chorizo omelet. She loved it but had plenty to take for leftovers. They have a small parking lot but we parked on the nearby side street and didn't have an issue. I thought we'd have to wait for a table but we didn't have any wait. Maybe this is a hidden gem of St Louis. It certainly is to us because it was so tasty.

The layout of the space reminds me of an online library - rows of books, couches, board games, etc. they even had a kids library area which was so cute!

The high chair for our baby accomodationed these tables and the staff welcomed us in nicely. We really appreciated a nice restaurant welcoming in A: kids B: us after a Zoo day. We loved how they had the garage door open for the air to come in on the nice day. The bar / high top are had plenty of space and was very comfortable. They had a great happy hour around 3pm, both our appetizers were on the happy hour menu, as well as our Pinot Grigio drinks. The food was excellent, we had focaccia bread, and fried calamaris. We didn't have them but the wagu sliders and chicken lollipops both were popular at the other table. We also got a white chocolate tiramisu to go that was fantastic. Great bread = Great dessert Really appreciated our waitress / bartender that day, she said she had four grown kids of her own, as well as appreciated the rest of the staff. Thank you for a great meal and service! See you again soon

Let me start by saying my waitress was lovely, great service and great attitude. So in that…read morerespect, the meal was pleasant. Unfortunately though, this restaurant seems to have a case of quantity over quality in terms of food items. There are far too many things on the menu for them to perform well at all 40+ menu offerings, or at least that's my opinion of what might be going on here. I ordered a glass of prosecco and the prosciutto con melon appetizer to start. This was actually quite nice flavor wise but if you're going to charge $22 bucks for an appetizer you better load my plate up with prosciutto!!! For me personally, 3 pieces of prosciutto, a pile of arugula and some cantaloupe is not worth 22 dollars. I then ordered a side beet salad and mushroom ravioli. This is where things took a turn for the worse. Beet salad was decent, I just wish they put more of the toppings. Was basically just a bowl of arugula. The mushroom ravioli was sadly a let down for me. The pasta was rolled far too thin on top of the filling and far too thick on the sides so unfortunately the tops of the ravioli were paper thin and overcooked while the sides were still raw. Really unappetizing to cut a ravioli open and see raw pasta. Honestly the flavor was pretty rich but not terrible it's just the ravioli itself wasn't well executed. The lovely waitress noticed that I wasnt completely satisfied and took the ravioli off the check. I ordered some "wagyu" sliders that were juicy but in desperate need of some salt. She also offered me a free dessert which was a warm olive oil cake which had a nice orange flavor to it. Honestly quite a nice ending to an underwhelming meal. Would come back for drinks, though.

It is undeniably inconsiderate and rude to discuss sexual preference without their consent! I stand up for LGBTQ+ inclusion in daily life. Sunny, the owner of this cafe will smile in your face and then discuss your sexuality behind your back as you leave the cafe. The owner needs to understand that members of the LGBTQ community sometimes prefer not to have their sexuality be of importance and rather be seen as equal as the next customer. I bet she isn't calling straight customers "straight" as they walk out of her establishment. Hence, dont discuss your customer being GAY as they exit. Spend your money somewhere where your sexuality isn't solicited or discussed in private by the owners of the business. I will never spend another penny at this cafe or Cafe Deblair on Washington and nor should you! read more
