Just got our STL Coffee Pass and this was our first place to try. Super cute coffee and plant shop…read more A few places to sit on the shaded porch as well as main level and lower level shop. Not sure if there's an upstairs but definitely a fun place. Love when my mocha latte has a blended chocolate flavor and balanced with the coffee. They had a nice pastry assortment as well that we will have to try next time!

The shop itself is a former home-turned café/shop. So, parking here is very limited and very tight…read more While I could have fitted my car in one of the spaces, the two cars on either side were too close to the parking lines for my comfort so I parked across the street at the bank and walked over. When you enter, it's very small but very well put together décor wise. Each area had signs that discouraged movement of their furniture and had its own kind of theme. I was meeting up with a friend and her daughter and unfortunately did not realize they had the typical café hours (closed at 2pm) so my visit was very quick (30 minutes) and I had to rush my conversation. I ordered an iced Monstera Mint latte and chocolate coffee cake slice. When the barista called up my order, I repeated my order asking if it's mine (they don't use a name system) and apparently *I* mispronounced MONSTERA because she turned her back and said within earshot to her coworker how I did not pronounce it correctly and why do people say it incorrectly. I am not a big plant person so excuse me for not knowing how every single plant name is pronounced. I know people vent at work, but it made me feel uncomfortable the rest of my visit, so I was glad it was almost time to leave before they closed. Vent after customers leave if you have to.... Anyways, my MONSTER-AH mint latte was good, but the chocolate coffee cake was a bit too dry for me. And service could have been a bit more professional in my opinion.

From the stunning decor to the delicious coffee, tea, and desserts, every detail is perfect. The owner is so kind and open to feedback, making the vibe even better. I loved trying their Adeni Chai -- a must-try, customizable to your taste -- and the blueberry dessert was absolutely gorgeous and delicious! Can't wait to go back. It is family-owned!

I had an oatmilk latte, which was very good. I also had a blueberry muffin, of which they get delivered by a local bakery. Normally when blueberry muffins have lemon flavor it is extremely out of balanced. The lemon did not over power the blueberries. Their staff are nice and inviting. They currently do not have an app or website to have your beverages made ahead of time but they mentioned it is something they are looking into. TLDR: Worth going to. Parking might be interesting. Be warned there is a risk of a wait for their busy morning crowd.

There are crepes, gelato, fruit samplers, Dubai chocolate creations, milkshakes, coffee, and so much more. I am not sure jf anyone could try everything on the menu because it's so vast. I was thankful for the variety of options available because I don't always want chocolate and I have to avoid gluten heavy options. Luckily this place has it all and if are not sure ask the staff. They all have different favorites to recommend. The prices are exactly what you would think for freshness and quality of menu options. The space is clean and easy to maneuver but if you need wheelchair accessibility you will most likely need assistance with the doors and having the table water to your table.

Who knew Capital One had a café Located inside of West County Mall. I came across this gem one day…read moreand been hooked ever since. The staff here are always so nice and polite, and this is a great spot to get away from all the noise when you want to relax or get a little work done. I ordered a honey lavender iced latte. It was smooth, creamy, and not too sweet. He honey and lavender mesh so well and you can taste all of the flavor. They sell pastries as well. I ordered a ham and Swiss croissant. The croissant was fluffy and flakey, and the warm ham and cheese brought comfort to my belly. They were out of the marmalade that comes with it so i wasn't able to taste that. If you use your capital one card, you get 50% off your drink. You also get access to their meeting rooms and private bathrooms. There is plenty of seating inside.

Did not realize there was a Capital One cafe inside West County Mall, granted this is not somewhere…read moreI frequent but it was good to know that it was here. Concept is interesting - part cafe, part bank, part workspace, part bank. The space is modern and clean, and set up perfectly if you want to sit and get work done. Lots of seating and outlets with free wifi. I didn't get to try the coffee and got the matcha instead which was pretty refreshing. The menu also included light food options like sandwiches and pastries which are convenient if you want something quick. Another big perk is you get 50% off drinks if you have a Capital One or Discover card which makes it a much better value and a reason to come back.

It was a bit busy, as expected, but the line and drinks were moving quickly. They have a huge menu of drink flavors! It was hard to choose what to try because everything looked so good. We went with a classic milk tea with boba and a strawberry tea with popping boba. The drinks were super flavorful and refreshing. It is a bit pricey, but that's expected as boba tea is extremely popular. I'd definitely come back, but more as a weekly treat than a daily drink option.

It has that classic Korean bakery setup where you grab a tray, pick out your breads and pastries as you walk through, then order cakes, coffee, and drinks at the counter. The space itself is bright, clean, and inviting, with plenty of tables if you want to sit and enjoy everything fresh. We picked up a Tuxedo Choco Cake for my son,,he loved it, and added a mix of pastries: a spinach feta danish to go, a guava danish, a Portuguese egg tart, and a kimchi croquette. Not a single miss in the bunch; everything tasted fresh, balanced, and well-made. The drinks were just as impressive. I tried a Hot Honey Lavender Macchiato for the first time, and it was excellent, comforting, floral, and just sweet enough. My wife gave it her stamp of approval too, which says a lot. Overall, it was such a fun, satisfying stop after a big weekend for our little athlete. Great pastries, great coffee, and a great atmosphere. We'll absolutely be back.

I was there 45 minutes before closing so the selection was a bit scarce but the items I did try were ok... The Ube latte was milky and needed a larger boost of ube flavor. The pistachio macaron filling was a bit waxy but the earl grey was good! The strawberry and green tea cake slice was not the best. The green tea flavor didn't pop nor did the strawberry flavor. The spinach feta pastry was delicious!! I may have to go back for more savory bites. The sweets didn't sell me. I'm not sure if they warm your pastries for you but if not, I recommend adding that service. The seating is intimate but the atmosphere is so cute and casual! Perfect for catching up with a friend or enjoying yourself.
