    Second row from left top & bottom were all gluten and dairy free.  The pistachio and the orange & almond were fabulous. 022226

    Cute, cozy and sunlit space with delicious Illy coffees and lattes with *real* matcha. Gluten AND dairy free cookies made for a real treat. Aggie is great and made us feel welcome our first time in. Recommend!

    Charming small coffee shop with wide variety of pastries. Alternative to that very popular coffee a block north. Service is fast and friendly. Inside is small but seating outside is great when weather is nice. Street parking. Stop by after lunch or for lunch (which is what I usually do).

    After eating lunch at a nearby restaurant on the Hill, I walked over to Cafe Dolce to grab a little afternoon treat. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. Cafe Dolce is the kind of place where you just want to sit and hang out for awhile. They have tons of fun flavors you can choose to add to your coffee, including plenty of sugar free options. I ended up getting an iced lavender latte. It was perfect and strong. While I didn't get any pastries and cookies this time, everything in the display case looked incredible. It seems like everything would pair perfectly with a coffee. The barista who took my order and made my coffee was so sweet and personable. She made me feel so welcomed! I would love to come back with my laptop and get some work done while enjoying the vibes.

    I cannot recommend this coffee shop enough. It is so cute in the people there are so nice. The coffee is delightful and they even have a small menu of breakfast foods to enjoy with your coffee!

    Cookies sold by the pound. DON'T skip the Figs!

    HOLY CANNOLI! I'm always on the hunt for good Italian cookies, and this place is AMAZING!!!! I happened upon it while visiting The Hill and I'm so lucky that I did! It's the cutest little cafe with a patio. Inside you can enjoy coffee and a variety of deserts including their phenomenal made to order cannolis! I'm a brat about my cannolis, and these are my favorite! Bring a hot day, the worker suggested their iced nitro cold brew with sweet cream and it was delicious. I also grabbed a box of cookies to bring home and they are so soft and delicious. No dry crumbly cookies here! They all were the perfect texture and flavor! Great service and cute vibe!!!!

    What can I say, this cute little Italian bakery is one of my favorite places to go in the Hill! I always have a good experience when I go and I love trying all of the authentic treats and desserts. I tried the cannolo and It was perfectly crispy on the outside with the right amount of filling. The amount of seating is pretty limited, so that's something to keep in mind if you visit there at a busy hour.

    Super cute place! It was cold when we visited, so we couldn't use the front patio, but it looks like a lovely place to have a coffee on a spring morning. Prices were comparable to any small business coffee shop. Service was quick, and my latte was outstanding. Love the aesthetics of the place. My friends and I were able to sit in a cute corner seating area and shoot the breeze for a couple of hours. It wasn't busy busy, but it had a good steady stream of customers. Would totally visit again.

    We stopped in after mass one Sunday. They have a great selection of Italian baked good as well as typical coffee house fare. Since most areas on the Hill are closed on Sunday this was a great find. The service was good and the prices were reasonable.

    Iced Caramel Macchiato with 2% and Iced Caramel Macchiato with Oatmilk
    Kate K.

    I was in town visiting family from St. Louis when a good friend of mine also happened to be here! We wanted to checkout some local coffee shops in The Hill neighborhood. We decided to go to Cafe Dolce before a Six Flags trip to fuel up. The shop is cute but small with lots of coffee options. The counter seemed to have way more sweet items than savory. We both ordered Iced Caramel Macchiatos- one with 2% (they don't have whole milk as an option) and one with Oatmilk. The coffee was really good and if my review was based on coffee alone it would be higher. The only thing I didn't prefer was the straws- they were tiny and would bend fairly easily making it hard to drink. The breakfast sandwiches we ordered were pretty awful. I asked if I could customize something and was told the items come as they are, which to me signals they were prebrought and frozen. They reminded us of like a frozen jimmy deans sandwich. We really wanted something a bit more fresh. We ordered the turkey egg crossiant and bacon egg cheese on an english muffin. They were both warm, but soggy and super soft. The bacon in mine looked more like ham and was undercooked. I meant to take a picture but we were in a rush. I would come back for coffee but skip anything savory related there. Overall experience 3/5

    Panini, Cannoli, Caramel Macciatto
    Molly G.

    Cafe Dolce is a delightful place to spend a morning. The food is good. I always get a fresh made cannoli with a coffee drink. Today I also got a panini. Everything was delicious as always. The service is friendly and quick. Everyone is very pleasant. The café is decorated very cute with a small merch shop, large sweets display case, and a large painting on the brick wall of Italy. If you're on The Hill, this is a must visit.

    Blueberry Scone
    Steven B.

    Small charming coffee shop on, The Hill. It is kind of off the main drag on, The Hill, so parking is a lot easier. I'm not a fancy caffeine drink fan, I just like plain ole coffee and I like my coffee black. I was next door dropping off my taxes to my CPA and stopped by Cafe Dolce for a Cup of Joe to enjoy while I was driving out to the outlet mall. My coffee had a good flavor to it and was not over roasted like the major chain that is everywhere. In addition, to my coffee, I grabbed a Blueberry Scone. I was wavering between two flavors and the barista told me that Blueberry was a customer favorite. After biting into it, I could see why everyone likes it. It had a good soft texture, wasn't overly sweet and was crammed full of Blueberries. I am already looking forward to stopping in again, when I come back to my CPA to pick up my completed taxes.

    Happened upon this cafe after dinner the other night and said I had to come back to try it. And I am so glad I did. It was so cute! Seating inside and outside. Pastries and coffee. The cannoli was made to order, and it was fantastic! I got one of the coffee specials and oh my gosh. 10/10. I will be back to try some more things!

He was happy with his order, so I want to tell you about mine. I was so pleasantly surprised with the generous portion of my sandwich and I did not realize my order came with chips too. I was even more pleasantly surprised to see MUD\WTR on the menu, I recently quit drinking caffeine, and of course I have seen a lot of ads for mushroom coffee, I very much appreciated the opportunity to order it here as opposed to having to buy it online to try it. Personally, I liked the mushroom coffee, I have always drank coffee black and I appreciated the flavor of the mushroom, turmeric and additional spices.

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.

We started with the whipped ricotta, which was delicious though did not come with enough bread. We split pasta and the porchetta as mains - the noodles were delicious and clearly made in house, but sauce lacked seasoning. Porchetta was not good - a little cold, and mainly fat. Also just not a good combination of flavors (though it sounded good on the menu). I want to leave a note about our service which was 12/10 and was the highlight of our experience. Our waitress and all we interacted with could not have been nicer. They were perfectly attentive and accommodating. On that alone I'd consider giving it a second shot and preferring something different in hopes of a better meal.
