Finally got around to visiting and Kentzo Coffee and it was such an enjoyable experience. They have really made the space their own and offering lots of seating options. The service was great. You walk up to the counter to order. We ordered the BLT and Basil Pesto Club. They do not skimp on the meat here! My Basil Pesto Club was loaded with turkey, bacon and pesto! The break was great and the chips and pickle were a nice addition to the meal. My partner got the BLT and it also did not disappoint. A very filling and flavorful sandwiches. We were not able to sample their coffee but will be back to try them read more

Having a weirdly large cinnamon roll on the patio outside Kentzo Koffee, it occurred to me that it would be lovely to live nearby. I'd eat there on the reg. I'd be grossly overweight. Eventually, I'd run out of money and be forced to live out of doors, perhaps in a tent in the park across the street. It would almost be worth it. Kentzo Koffee is not without its flaws, but it's a good place to have a coffee ("koffee") and a light breakfast. It's not clear to me how long it's been around, but it's possible they have a few issues that just need ironing out. A guy from my running group who lives nearby was running down the litany of businesses that have been in this space. Is this location cursed? Was a Native American killed there? This is no fault of Kentzo, but there was some confusion as to whether the breakfast bowl comes with eggs. I could have sworn that it doesn't and that the menu made this clear, but a few members of my group, who are girls with whom I'm not inclined to outwardly disagree, insisted that it does. It seems like it should anyway, right? What's a breakfast bowl without eggs? You could just as easily have such a bowl for lunch. That's unacceptable. This place had umpteen baristas, including one dressed like she was working for tips in a place frequented by bikers (she looked amazing), but they were barely keeping up with orders. This was fine with me. I didn't have anywhere to be, and my drink--an iced vanilla latte, natch--was good when it finally came out. But this is not the kind of place to stop and grab a quick drink on your way to work. There was only one guy making food, as far as I can tell, and he was on it. He made my Breakfast Bowl w/ Bacon and brought it out before I got my drink. He warned me that the bowl was hot, but he was holding it with his bare hand. He must think that I'm actually *from* Maplewood. I had to have the girl who handed me my drink fetch my cinnamon roll. Were they supposed to hand it to me when I ordered? Were they hoping I'd just forget? The cinnamon roll was cold, like maybe it sat in a refrigerator overnight. It occurred to me that it almost certainly wasn't made that day, but it didn't seem particularly stale or prepackaged. It cost more than I paid for most meals in the pre-Brandon era, and it occurred to me that they could just give you a bit less, not charge as much, and I'd be fine with that. Did I devour the whole thing in a few bites anyway, like I just got out of jail? Yes. Yes, I did. read more

Their patio is blooming with flowers and created a little oasis! The Peach Cobbler Latte was divine and is definitely a must try while it's in season! The staff were sweet and helpful when I had questions about the menu. I had the quiche and enjoyed it! read more

Love coming here. Good food, good selection, friendly staff. However, I was disappointed when the employees assumed everyone placing orders wanted To Gos. They usually serve their food and drinks on real dishes, unless you say it's to go. If this is the case, please ask customers if they prefer here or to go. So many parties with a bunch of unnecessary waste at every table. Next time, I will specify l prefer the food served on dishes I guess. read more

The service was impeccable. The barista was so kind and helpful with information. Food was delicious and so fresh. Both myself and my friend got specialty lattes and they were DELICIOUS. There was also plenty of space to work or meet up with a friend. Loved the comfy couches and options to Lounge paired with more typical seating. read more

Pretty good and nice place to chill or work on things. We got a cortado and a matcha latte and we liked it

I needed a quick bite to eat before my boxing class and since this was close enough to the gym, I figured I'd go ahead and check them out. I got there right at 10 and as I expected, it was pretty busy but with a minimal wait. When it was my turn to order, I went with the biscuit sandwich and added sausage (you can choose between that or bacon). I think I waited a risk of 5 minutes and I was on my way. When I opened the box, I was surprised to see there was egg on my sand which since it wasn't listed on the menu. The first few bites were ok but as I continued eating, something tasted off. I looked to see if maybe there was something else on the sandwich that I didn't notice before, when I saw that the egg and possibly the sausage had some weird spice that I didn't care for. After I recognized it, I just finished the biscuit and took everything else off. While the biscuit wasn't my jam, there's other things on the menu I'm wanting to try, so I imagine I'll be back soon. read more

I first heard about this place shortly after they opened, but hadn't yet made it out here. Then they posted their holiday drink list, which included a Gingerbread Latte, so that was my cue to stop by. Inviting coffeeshop, looks like what you'd expect a neighborhood coffeeshop to look like, with seating both inside and out. The gingerbread latte, of course, was great. Parking in this area can be an adventure, so keep that in mind when you stop by. I just got the one drink, but they did also have some food options, sweet as well as savory if you want something to eat with your coffee. read more

Cute little neighborhood coffee spot. Parking can be hard to come by right next to the building, but there are spots within a block. Delectable treats - I did not anticipate how much I really did need an Apple fritter in my life until there was one staring back at me from within the lonely display case. I took one home with me, managed to pry a section off to eat in the car, and was instantly rewarded for my purchase. (My gooey butter cake latte was no slouch, either.) Very friendly and encouraging baristas. I'll definitely swing by again when I'm in the neighborhood! read more

Superb location on a little neighborhood corner with an astounding patio. A pastry case full of the essentials: donuts and fritters. The workers were great. It was not busy on a Saturday morning and they were happy to chat it up with me while I waited. Super nice folks. The latte was great. I have a select few spots I frequent a lot and this latte is good enough to be added to my list. It is smack dab in the middle of a neighborhood so i suspect a lot of families and couples will be in here for sunday morning treats, definitely a good spot I'm excited to explore more! read more

We had such an amazing visit to Kentzo, today! As soon as we walked in (with our pup), we were welcomed so warmly! One of the owners immediately came around and said hello and then took our order. The barista that made our lattes made the cutest design with the milk foam, it was so cool! My son had a donut and it was huge! Our dog got a huge pup cup as well! They also have a spacious patio for nice weather days. We can't wait to be back! read more

Kenzo is tucked away on a side street just two blocks from Maplewood Shuck's. The space is surprisingly spacious, with two cozy rooms and a large patio. Staff was friendly and helpful. I had the breakfast bowl with veggies. It was delicious and had a nice kick of spice. The coffee was excellent, too. It's a great spot to get some work done or relax. read more

Kentzo just opened in July 2025 and this was my first time visiting. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They have a small breakfast menu as well as a variety of pastries. I got a cappuccino and avocado toast with bacon and both were perfect! I appreciate the large amount of avocado on my toast and the prices are very reasonable. The avocado toast does have chili flakes and chili oil so if you were not into a little bit of spice, I would get it without it. The building is very nice and they have a large, dog, friendly patio. And it's right next to a park. read more

Stopped by on a Saturday morning, there was a solo musician singing on the patio. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Inside, the smell of coffee filled the air & the large display of pastries was glowing. I opted for an americano and a turkey basil pesto sandwich. The coffee is roasty toasty and low acidity. Sando was served on quality bread which I appreciate & the pesto flavor was fantastic. Lots of happy people working. 10/10 read more

Kentzo Koffee - Basil pesto turkey club - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Maplewood, Missouri

Let me start by saying that I loved my brother. Loved to hang out with him, listen to him... we were the best of friends. However, I would never have been able to work with him. Kentzo Koffee makes it work. Two brothers, both with seemingly great dispositions brew coffee and make food that rivals any other coffee (or rather Koffee) shop. The atmosphere is modern with clean lines. And yet not totally industrial, VERY welcoming. The staff is friendly and understanding. When I (coffee novice) was trying to figure out what drink to get after my dirty chai and was at the counter and was told that espresso goes in a latte. We all laughed. I didn't know and they were kind enough to tell me. But NOT in a mean way. (NOW they may have laughed at me when I left but I really don't care. To my face they were sweet.) I used to come here at a lot when it was Spiral Stone Coffee. That had a fun hippie vibe with lots of local art on the walls for sale. Now there are beautiful photos of Alaska taken on a bucket list trip before the brothers opened this place. One side for dining has a cute coffee shop feel. The other side has a darker, carpeted, comfy vibe. On a cold day I could easily see me sitting on the sofa watching snow fall drinking a latte (that has espresso.... hahaha) or my norm...a warm dirty Chai. Speaking of... the dirty Chai was perfect! One of the best I've ever had. Plus, I am not a fan of drinks that are super hot and I mentioned that and my drink came out looking pretty and had the right temp. My cousin had the avocado toast and said it was amazing. I forget to get a picture. I got an egg biscuit with sausage and cheese. It was super good. The biscuit was a little crumbly but a good breakfast sandwich nonetheless. There is an outdoor area with picnic tables and umbrellas. While it's not snowing there is also a heat warming until Tuesday so we sat inside enjoying a AC. Everybody working here was happy, friendly and understanding. It looks like they all live their job. When a place is like that you want to go back again soon. And I will. I just wish I had asked about the meaning of the name. I totally forgot when I was speaking to one of the brothers. Oh well next time. Again, there WILL be a next time. read more

Kentzo Koffee is a welcome addition to the neighborhood surrounding Ryan Hummert Park. They are open at 7am which is great with indoor and outdoor seating. The coffee is good quality I had a honey latte. I hope they do some seasonal flavors throughout the year. My daughter had a yogurt parfait which was a good size portion and my other daughter had a freshly baked cinnamon roll. I'm hoping they open on weekends at some point. I felt that's when the previous coffee shops in that spot have really been busy while kids are playing at the park. read more

I haven't been to the new store but I sure will soon. I have been a customer for a few years now thanks to wentzville farmers market! This coffee is AMAZING!! Mount Everest espresso is a must!! I buy the beans grind them myself and use them. I have turned many of my colleagues onto this amazing local company. If you don't know the backstory well you need to! These brothers have it down. The flavors are delightful. I'm proud to see their vision and company grow as it is well deserved. Check them out if you're a coffee person, this is an absolute must!!! The service has always been phenomenal when I've encountered them. read more

My daughter and I found this little gem in Maplewood. Great coffee and nice vibe! We will definitely come back!

Don't go too late. We arrived around two hours before close on a wkend and asked if everything on the menu was available. They said yes. We considered the menu and ordered then found out that most of what we ordered was either a long wait bc or the were out of the item for the day. Maybe it's fine earlier but was a waste of a trip later. read more

Awesome coffee shop! The owner is welcoming along with all of the staff. Put Kentzo's on your must stop and check out list for great coffee.

Best coffee in STL!! You can tell the owners are very passionate, you can taste the freshness in both the food and the drinks. The patio is lovely, and the inside has such a nice, comfy atmosphere. Really hoping they bring back s'mores latte soon!! read more
