Not a single miss. The biggest standouts were the lavender yuzu berry cookie and the berry trio walnut bread. The cookie was incredibly well balanced -- floral, citrusy, and not overly sweet -- and easily one of the best cookies I've had in a while. It's also a pretty large cookie, so good for sharing... or not The berry trio walnut bread had great structure despite being packed with nuts and dried fruits -- really thoughtfully baked and especially amazing toasted. Overall, Foundry is a really great bakery. Absolutely worth the drive to try something new, and I'll definitely be coming back.

They are thoughtful about using the best possible ingredients for their customers. Every fruit tea is made from real fruit and not powder and artificial flavors. Things are no where near the sweetness of other boba tea shops. They use ceremonial grade matcha and every piece of bread that we tried tasted not overly sweet and extremely fresh. They are truly the definition of mom and pop shop that cares about their customers.

**May 2025: Weekday Morning Visit**…read more My friend and I were looking for a quick on the go breakfast to take to the airport before our flight. I found this one on Yelp and the distance (3 miles away) and the fact that it appeared to be a local joint checked all my boxes. This small mom n' pop shop is located in a very suburban area of St. Louis and parking is plentiful. They played 90s type of music and had a wide array of donuts to choose from, though my friend and I decided to each get a breakfast burrito as we prefer a savory start to our day. The burrito was made to order and had one egg, mushroom, onions, sausage, potatoes and salsa. It was delicious. Super savory and I really enjoyed how the mushrooms gave a nice meatiness to the burrito and the caramelized onions gave a slight sweetness to contrast the heartiness of it all. My only critique is that the burrito is wrapped a tad loosely, but it's not a deal breaker. Also the price point - $5.99 (+$.50 surcharge for egg) was extremely reasonable. Honestly, if I lived in the area I would probably be a regular here. Otherwise the next time I'm in town I'll surely be back!

I was in town for a volleyball tournament and stopped to pick up a takeout order from a neighboring…read morespot when I stumbled upon this gem. As soon as I walked in, there was a one-man band playing guitar, freshly prepared food by the counter, and shelves filled with bakery items--it had such a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly. I decided to order some lumpia to go, and while they were preparing it, I took some time to browse the bakery and market section. I ended up grabbing several bag of chips and a slice of cake as well. The lumpia were perfectly crispy with great flavor, and the cake was incredibly moist. Next time I'm back in town, I definitely want to try the ube bread!

I really wanted to love this place. We recently moved from SoCal, so having Filipino comfort food…read morenearby felt reassuring especially on a night when I didn't feel like cooking. I know it's hard to compare restaurant food to home-cooked meals, and I wasn't expecting to be wowed. "Mid" would've been fine, but unfortunately, this fell below that for us. We ordered the menudo, chicken adobo, bangus, and lechon. Both the menudo and chicken adobo were noticeably sweet and not in a subtle way. The bangus only came as half with the combo (I'm not sure if that's standard), which was a bit disappointing since I'm used to getting a whole bangus. The lechon had a slightly off taste possibly from the oil used. I ended up cutting it up and putting it in the air fryer, which helped a bit, especially with Mang Tomas. My kids were excited for the ube bread, but there was barely any ube. Thankfully, I had ube jam at home to add more. That said, I'm still glad this restaurant is here representing the Filipino community. It's wonderful that they host gatherings and bring people together. I do think there's room for improvement, especially when it comes to showcasing Filipino food well for those who may be trying it for the first time.

Theodoro bakery sells crap. They overbake their goods and put them in freezers until they need…read morethem. They wipe dates on their products and put new dates in on any overages they have so they don't have to report "stales." They work their drivers 15-17 hours a day and they pay on commission only - no overtime. Ever. Their trucks have bald tires and every single one of them have something that doesn't work. They do not comply with DOT OR DOL regulations. The management is incompetent and unrealistic regarding their status in the St. Louis community. They had a great opportunity to pick up the Hostess slack but they had no idea how to go about it. They do not pay their bills on time or at all, but send their drivers to demand payments when a client is late. If you are AT ALL considering using Theodoro Bakery for your restaurant/catering business, be warned. Contact Flowers Bakeries instead.

This has become my go to spot for fried chicken. The portions are a good size and I especially…read moreappreciate that the chicken is always cooked well; meaning done. And of course the taste is what keeps me coming back! What stands out about this place is that you can choose your level of heat for the chicken from 0 to 5. With 5 being the hottest and labeled as try at your own risk. Typically I keep it mild at a level 1, and that's just about enough! The sides are pretty good and you can tell that they've been seasoned which is nice for a change. Even with delivery the food always arrives hot. Bonus! Also I like that the pricing isn't outrageous. If you like eating chicken, this place is worth a visit.
