This spot was highly recommended by a local, and I'm so glad I went. The food, service, and ambiance are all solid. At noon on a Sunday, it was bustling, but luckily, there was a very short wait for a table. Our server, Antigone, was fantastic! She provided amazing recommendations, was extremely warm and friendly, and made our experience very pleasant despite the somewhat lengthy wait for our food. The food was well worth the wait. I thoroughly enjoyed my order of salmon croquettes with rice and a biscuit. My mate's Build-A-Breakfast order of scrambled eggs, hash browns, and chicken wings had some of the best-tasting wings that I have ever had in my life. When I return to Hive Cafe, I will absolutely order the chicken and waffles just so I can have an order of those wings to myself. read more

This place came across my feed and I decided to check it out and my flight got in from Tampa. They told me where I could sit and when I initially sat my stuff down, the chair was covered in dust. I moved to the seat across that was still a little dusty but not as much. The server came over immediately and gave me menus. I briefly saw the menu online but figured I'd do a once over before making my decision. I went with the build-your-own breakfast and got the eggs and potatoes with a biscuit and turkey sausage. Drink wise, I went with water and a strawberry-pineapple mimosa. The mimosa was so refreshing and I def. appreciated the pour after a stressful flight! It wasn't long until my food came out. I was a bit disappointed at the portion of the egg as they seemed almost too small for what I was supposed to receive. The peppers on the potatoes threw me off. I think I was expecting something different. Nevertheless, they were good but not what I had pictured. Surprisingly, the biscuit was the highlight of my meal. It was perfect! The turkey sausage tasted like regular turkey sausage, so nothing special there. Overall, my server was awesome and gave great service. While I enjoyed my visit, it would have been nice if there signs to let customers know they're under construction instead of walking into dust on the floor, chairs, and everywhere. Aside from that, I def intend on coming back! read more

Delicious, Delicious! Some of the best pancakes I've had in a long time and the Omelet had the right balance of egg and ingredients. Omelet with American, Yellow Onion, Spinach, Peppers and Pork Bacon had the perfect amount of veggies, meat to egg ratio. Cooked well and flavorful! The pancakes were fluffy and had a wonderful taste. Everything was hot and fresh! Friendly staff! read more

Very cute breakfast/brunch cafe and they're open on Mondays! I've taken a couple folks here and the food and service are excellent. I've tried the shrimp and grits, the french toast, and the chicken and waffles. All of it was delicious. They have mimosa options as well as a bar for mixed drinks. Parking is off street but shared with the local residents who live above the restaurant (that has to be unnecessarily tempting if you work from home!) Anywho, check them out. They manage mid size groups pretty well. I'll return! read more

We visited on a whim this past weekend and were completely amazed by this little gem. The staff were attentive and friendly. The chef cooked up a delicious breakfast. And the bartender absolutely nailed it. The vibe is open and inviting, good for small or large parties. We ordered a build a breakfast which allowed complete customization of the items and a breakfast bowl. The boozy holiday drink menu had so many options it was hard to choose one. Overall great experience and we will absolutely return! read more

I had the French toast . It was good. The coffee was strong and hit and they kept us supplied with flavored creamers.Many restaurants don't have flavored creamers and you end up using more sugar/sweetners . I know the flavored creamers have sugar/sweetners added . Next time I will have to try the lamb chops! read more

The food here at the Hive Cafe is so good that I had to come back again lol. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly face and the vibes were on point. The first time I visited I tried the Build-A-Breakfast and it comes with two sides, a choice of bread, and a choice meat. I had French toast (2 pieces come with it) and for my sides, I chose grits, bacon, and some breakfast potatoes. I also ordered a Dusse Punch for my drink and everything was so good! When I came back the 2nd time, I ordered the Fast Breakfast croissant, egg, and cheese. I added bacon to it and to drink I just ordered some apple juice. My food was delicious this time as well and my waitress both visits were super sweet. read more

This restaurant has been buzzing around me for months now so I was excited to to finally give it a try. It was the cutest little cafe!!! Cute little tables and chairs and a small bar seating area. Very well lit. They were pretty packed when we arrived but the wait wasn't too long for seating. The food was really really good minus the large amount of butter. I literally enjoyed every single bite. I'd actually rate the French Toast in the top 3 in STL. The eggs were fluffy and pancake nice and crispy. The severs were very tentative and I have no complaints. The only headache was the parking. Shout to the owner for jumping in to cook! Love to see it. I'll be back! read more

This restaurant was recommended by a friend of mines. The staff were very friendly. Greeted and seated right away on a Friday morning. It started to get busy to noon. Food came out within a decent time frame. Presentation was great. The shrimp were well seasoned and flavorful, however the Grits lacked taste. I'll be back to try a few more things off their menu. Restaurant is black own. Parking available on site read more

Everyone was very friendly. The aesthetics were cool, there was beautiful artwork and a fireplace in the back. Very comfy. The food was tasty as well. I ordered chicken and waffles which was 10 out of 10. Chicken was flavorful and Delicious. My breakfast companion ordered an omelette and it was huge. Probably a shareable item but this was missing some flavor or the fried chicken just made it seem bland as I was ruined by how delicious the chicken and waffles was. I would return for sure. Enjoy! read more

First, it's black-owned, so support the community. Ladies are extremely friendly and welcoming. Food was perfect...props to the gravy and buttery biscuits (B&G). Got a breakfast bowl which was super good. Cubed potatoes were nicely crisp...not mushy. Portions not huge (in a good way) but totally appropriate and filling. Breakfast drinks seemed popular and well done (espresso martini). They didn't have Diet Coke, were sweet to allow me to bring one in and even offered ice. Clean bathroom, interesting artwork on the walls, and various seating (bar, tables, high tops and a couple comfy chairs/couch-style). I really liked it. read more

Went here on a weekday morning to get some breakfast. When we walked in, it's self seating. There was a small crowd so the sound was good. I like the windows all around to get a view of the area. The waitress was very accommodating and nice. They gave us plenty time to order and our food came in at a decent time. I got chicken and waffles with some eggs and fruit. I also got a latte that was good. The chicken was well seasoned and the waffle was buttery and delicious. Eggs were the best. I would return. read more

I thought this was an okay breakfast spot! Right in the heart of Ferguson. This place has some good customer service. The ladies really helped me with the menu. Starting of strong the croissant breakfast sandwich as amazing!! The eggs were fluffy, bacon was crispy and the croissant was buttery. The waffles I. The chicken and waffles dish was kinda crumbly when I ate it but the chicken was really good! The jerk wrap was not not what I aspected. It had some good flavor but when I think of jerk I think of spice and there was not spice to it. But I definitely recommend this spot for breakfast read more

We flew in from KC, decided on this place to eat. Went straight there from the airport. This was the worst service I have ever experienced. When we walked in it was two of us and we were given one menu. Then I had to ask and wait for coffee and had to keep asking for a refill. My order was placed wrong. We were served our pancakes first and had to wait on the rest of our breakfast. By the time it arrived our pancakes were cold. Then my eggs were cooked wrong, ask for over easy, got scrambled. NEVER GOT CHECKED ON FOR SERVICE. We both decided we will NEVER ever eat there again and would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. THEY NEED TO PRACTICE ON THEIR FOLLOW UP SKILLS. The waitress was named Christina, appeared to have an attitude our entire stay. So rude. Had to ask the other waitress for assistance even though they had their own tables to care for. Ugh so disappointing. Mind you we got up in KC at 5am, got a 8:15 flight, got to the cafe in a St. Louis around 10:30 very hungry and left without eating half of our cold ass food!!!! Very disappointed. We were just trying to support a Black business. read more

I will be returning to try other things on the menu and will be bringing all my friends and family. !!! Y'ALL this place is a must! I will be becoming a REGULAR!!!! read more

Today was the grand opening. It's to be expected there will be kinks to work out. They are off to an amazing start though. It's not a large establishment, so they can only seat roughly 30 patrons at a time. I would not suggest you bring your large group, rather a party of 2 to 4. Great customer service Well seasoned, tasty food A plethora of choices The salmon croquet tasted like my family's version of the dish. The shrimp and grits is not spicy (my preference) and the grits were buttery. The pancakes were a mix of fluffy and crispy edges. The batter for the pancakes and waffles was mouth watering. I'm excited to return! read more

Back for a second visit. And I must say, I'm pleased with how things have improved in just a week since I was here. Seated and served quickly! The food was just delicious as it was before. I did notice; however, that the portions of some of our dishes were a tad bit smaller than they were my first visit. Not sure why - the prices didn't change. If I have one complaint it's how they price the pitcher of mimosas. I don't recall how much a pitcher costs, but our server informed us that only 2 glasses come with each pitcher. Since there were four of us, we were required to purchase two pitchers. Doesn't make sense, nor is that fair- to the customer. The restaurant is making out like a bandit if that's their rule. I dine out frequently and I've never been limited on how many glasses come with a pitcher. Furthermore, the table of three next to us had one pitcher and three glasses. Really? The food is great, so I'll definitely go back, but I won't be purchasing mimosas if there are more than two in my party in the future. read more

We were visiting from out of state and I wish there was a Hive cafe near us. This place is a great breakfast/brunch spot! I loved that they have a build a breakfast option where I could have French toast as my "bread." Good thing, because it was the best French toast I've ever had! My partner had a waffle that was so fluffy and moist that they could teach some "high end" restaurants a thing or two. The Hive was clean, welcoming, bright, and beautifully decorated with amazing art. We were glad we found it and decided to stop in. The staff was kind and attentive, we were well taken care of and the price was very reasonable. read more

A cute little family owned coffee shop in the heart of Ferguson. The waitress was laid back, but friendly. I ordered the create your own breakfast.

Awesome customer service, the ladies were very helpful shoutout to them! The food was really good and tasted like it was homemade and made with love so shout out to the cook. I will say the only (not really) negative feedback would be that the french toast tasted like it was cooked on the same grill with bacon. So I would just take that into consideration. Other than that, the food was great, store looked clean and parking wasn't too bad. Highly recommend. read more

First time visiting with my partner for a random breakfast run. Hive Cafe has been on our list to visit for a while and we were very pleased with finally making the stop. The cafe was very nice, accessible parking, and great location right off New Florissant Road. The cafe was definitely hustling and bustling with folks simply enjoying breakfast, have meetings, or utilizing the work space. The menu options were plentiful. We both created our own breakfast platters. Our wait staff was so sweet and very attentive. We did experience one small mix up (his chicken and waffles order came out wrong), but the staff corrected the issue immediately. The space in general was cleanly, well organized, and you could see a team effort amongst the staff. I will definitely be back to support! Especially with this being a black owned business creating a functional space and opportunity here in North County! Definitely pay them a visit. read more

I normally wait until I've visited a place 3 times before I come to give my review but I'm familiar with the family and their establishments and the food at all of them is on point and Hive Cafe is no different. If you miss Goody Goody this is the spot to try. You can get breakfast or lunch and of course coffee drinks. I opted for the salmon patty breakfast with grits and eggs and was so happy. I met a friend for breakfast and she was so happy I introduced her to the spot because she wanted a place like this to enjoy a meal like that! It's a cute coffee shop type atmosphere perfect for a quick coffee catch up or a full meal with family. They have a counter and tables throughout which I think should be mandatory for breakfast spots. Service and friendly and prompt. read more

Me and My Boys stopped here today and it blew me away. From the food to the customer service. The vibes were there. Of course I had a mimosa and it was tasty.

Hive Cafe - He's satisfied! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

Visiting the STL, looking for a local breakfast spot (not a national or regional chain). Actually found the Hive Cafe via a Yelp search. Upon arrival around 8am on a Saturday morning, found approximately 10 customers either eating or awaiting their breakfast. Was greeted with a welcoming smile by Kelly (who turns out to be the co-owner along with her husband Melvin? who was working magic in the kitchen). Ordered and thoroughly the Breakfast Bowl with a side of grits, but, regrettably, didn't have a big enough appetite to finish it all. A wonderful meal to start the day! If you're looking for a great meal, in a great location, owned and run by a great couple, do yourself a favor and check out the Hive Cafe! read more

Hive Cafe - This is shrimp and grits Dry AF - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

I came to visit this place on Saturday Sept 6, 2025. Their wasn't no one at the to see how many people you have in your party, so I was told by another customer to go to the girl in the yellow shirt at the bar. I stood there for 10 mins waiting for her to recognize me and she never did, never said how may I help you, how many in your party are nothing she act like I was invisible...to where it pissed me off and me and my boyfriend left and went to first watch. This was very unprofessional and she and the rest of the staff caused money to walk right out the door. Now true it was very busy but it wouldn't a second to recognize the customer and say I will be with you in one moment. She never said anything and neither did the other one's that was behind the bar. I will not be back. First impressions are everything and this was a very bad one. So unorganized this place is. The owner should have a greeter to greet customers at the door. It ridiculous of how this business doesn't have good customer service. ​ read more
