Service was horrible. The first time I went the food was pretty good. This time not so good. The omelet was horrible. I had to send it back 3 times. Greasy, sloppy, etc. read more

Hive Cafe - Salmon omelet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

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

Loveeeeee this place. Good...AWESOME!!! Art.... AWESOME!!! Service....Aliyah, hey boo;-) thank you for such a great brunch. Your the best 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. Our server was Deja, she was very sweet and attentive. I applaud her for her patience with us as well. It's also worth mentioning that their food had my pickiest eater cleaning his plate. Now any time we're in St. Louis we will be making a stop. read more

Hive Cafe - This is shrimp and grits Dry AF - 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

Not good. I'll give it a 2 out of 5. The grits were bland and tasted like water, the biscuit was mediocre , the chicken was a lil salty too

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

The food was lacking to say the least. I had chicken waffle grits and home fries. The chicken was burnt and the potatoes had the same burnt taste. Grits were just ok and there was nothing special about the waffle. The service was good. Or server was attentive and welcoming the ambiance was cool but we left smelling like burnt grease. I would like to try again hopefully it was just an off day. read more

Another thing I would like to add is the bill. My mom and I were offered onions and peppers in our potatoes and it wasn't on the menu about a up charge and the waitress didn't mention it either. And my aunt SPECIFICALLY said NO onions or peppers in her potatoes and when the bill came out she was charged for it even though she clearly didn't ask. My mom got charged twice for her omelette even though she ordered once. Highly disappointed in this business since it I saw that it was black owned. read more

Food was amazing!! Chicken was fried to perfection, fresh toast was just the right amount of sweet & crispy and that pancake was one of the fluffiest pancakes I've came across in a LONG time!! Definitely our new breakfast spot!! read more

This was my first time here. I ordered the shrimp and grits and a caramel latte. Both were great. My server Deja was superb. Great service , great food, great atmosphere. I will definitely be patronizing again. read more

I had chicken and waffles. So did my daughter. We enjoyed it. Wish they stayed open longer than 3pm.

We went on a Saturday afternoon. The vibes were solid. Good music and friendly staff. Mary served us and she was very informative about the menu and was able to make us an espresso martini! We ordered some French toast -- BOMB. The biscuits and gravy --BOMB. The chicken breast, crispy and flavorful -- BOMB. The down side is our food did not come out all at once. I can say for certain this is my favorite brunch spot in the Ferguson - Florissant area right now. I'll be back here for sure. read more

The customer service we received from the time we entered the restaurant until we left was impeccable. The food was exceptionally and exceeded our expectations. We ordered a little bit over everything- salmon, chicken, lamp chops, bacon, waffles, fruit, eggs,shrimp and grits and everything was delicious. We will be returning soon! read more

I had the build a breakfast fried chicken wings, grits, eggs, and a biscuit. The food was delicious and the service great glad we stopped through. read more

The food was l good, the service improves while we were there. A little training goes a long way. As does properly sized container. They were not busy, we thought there would be a jazz brunch but an okay experience. Hopefully the service will improve. The space was beautifully decorated. Loved the art on the walls. read more

the atmosphere was nice! however the food wasn't good. My omelette was cooked in some oily butter and the entire omelette was swimming in it. that's literally all I could taste. when I asked what it was i wasn't provided with a response. the potatoes were decent. lastly the pancakes were dry!! I was excited to try this place but the food isn't good. read more

Great food, great customer service and great vibe. Clean, friendly and very inviting. I had breakfast and it was soooo gooooood!!!!

I love the location. The inside looks like a traditional cafe. The menu is classic with a southern feel. We tried the salmon croquettes and they were amazing. I would highly recommend them. The staff were friendly and helpful with menu recommendations. It did take awhile for our food to come out but we weren't bothered by it as the venue has a very relaxing vibe. The mimosas were also great. read more

The food was great , however the service is sub par. My party of two waited for drinks over 20 mins and I lost track of time waiting for food. I had to request every little thing , like utensils , sugar and the correct side with my order. I gave my card to the waitress and had to retrieve it from her after she had closed my check, then got carried away with the next customer; like she forgot she had my card and we were looking at her ready to go. To top it all off I get home and look at my card transactions only to find out she rang me for $200.00 over the amount!!! I am livid and will only be returning to settle this matter. read more

Great service, food worth waiting for. Plenty of parking. Try the chicken and waffles or salmon croquettes.

Great food, great service. The lamb chops was amazing. Tender, well seasoned. Pancakes was light and fluffy. The fruit, fresh. Our server have friendly and knowledgeable about the menu items. We had a wonderful dining experience. We'll be back. read more

5 stars for service alone. No fewer than 5 people checked on me and all were very friendly. Eggs and bacon cooked perfectly. Potatoes a little bland, but at least nothing gross mixed in (as in no green bell peppers) and cooked well. Decent French toast. Not that I wanted, needed, or ate most of it. Seemed a bit overpriced, but not really. When I found out I could have ordered without the French toast and they would have reduced the charge, I'm sure the price would have been appropriate for what I can eat. My server(s) were exceptional. read more
