    Sunday morning around 1130 my lovely lady Red and I arrived at this little neighborhood coffee house, tucked away along the corner of Sutton and Lyndon. This is a nice little corner coffee shop with a fair sized patio and a nice spot inside to relax and chat over coffee with friends. Red had a latte and fig and goat cheese toast which she really enjoyed and I had a chocolate croissant and coffee. Prices are about average for a coffee shop, fair warning though arrive earlier than 1130 for a bigger selection of breakfast type foods. My advice if you are near Maplewood and want a coffee drink stop in and check out Kentzo.

    Cookie Butter latte

    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.

    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!

    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.

    LOVED the goat cheese and fig toast. Really delicious. I also got the maple pancake latte which was super good as well. Enjoyed both and for them to go.

    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

    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.

    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.

    Lonely Apple fritters begging to come home with you

    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!

    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!

    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!

    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.

    i went on a saturday around 1, i expected it to be busy...but it was not! the employees we're really nice. they didn't have a lot of baked goods left (any that i wanted to try) but i will definitely go back in the morning time when it's likely to be packed! the outside seating area was so beautiful! my order was an iced vanilla latte with oatmilk.

To be a last minute find a place... that was close by, easy to get into and DELICIOUS! This place checked all the boxes. We went in around noon. We bought parking close to The Arch but it didn't start until 2 PM so we were trying to time it just right. We were here just over 1 hour. It allowed us plenty of time to eat and drive time to Arch parking. It wasn't on purpose but we both ended up with chorizo. I had a chorizo bowl with sunny eggs. I did want some fruit so I ended up with a side of fruit and 2 biscuits. The biscuits are droolworthy; Not enough places make biscuits like that. My wife ordered the chorizo omelet. She loved it but had plenty to take for leftovers. They have a small parking lot but we parked on the nearby side street and didn't have an issue. I thought we'd have to wait for a table but we didn't have any wait. Maybe this is a hidden gem of St Louis. It certainly is to us because it was so tasty.

I'm not big on waffle fries but they didn't taste bad. It was busy and I think our server/bartender was all over the place so ib didn't say anything. He did forget our cup of cheese sauce and took the whole plate to the back instead of just going to get the cheese sauce. The burgers were ok, a little thick for my liking but taste fine. Others enjoyed their burgers but it was a bit too much. Overall the atmosphere was cool, the decor was nice and we had fun. I think it's a place people should experience.

The quality has not wavered once. I ordered what I always order: The Combo (fried eggs, maplewood smoked bacon, cheese, brioche toast), extra egg, extra bacon. Most kitchens treat a fried egg as binary (runny or ruined). Songbird has mastered the middle register: lacy edges with a yolk that stays glossy and intact right up until the first bite. I ordered them over hard, and they came out a bit closer to over medium, but they were just as good as I wanted them to be. The bacon carries real smoke. This is a decadent sandwich, big enough that half of it would make a light breakfast; I wasn't remotely hungry after one, the second half was indulgent. The service made the move too. The hostess still recognizes returning customers, and the bigger room finally lets the dining experience breathe. The service at the table could have been a little warmer as we've had it the past, but it is still professional. I was there with two close college buddies, one of whom declared his latte excellent. I keep meaning to get adventurous with the menu, but it is genuinely hard to find a bacon, egg, and cheese toasted this perfectly, and I'd go twice in one day if given the opportunity. 4.8 A full five arrives the day when I can arrive first thing on a Saturday without a 30 minute wait, honestly, it's hard to get a reservation here because of its popularity. Good for them. Cheers to you, Songbird. Dolly would be proud

Overall rating 3.5/5, even though I can't give half stars here on Yelp. One star for ambiance/vibes. This is a gorgeous, quaint little eatery in a lush area of Saint Louis County, right near Grant's Trail. One star for service. My server was a kind lady who made sure I was always doing well and kept my water glass topped off. One star for going above and beyond--I ordered gooey butter cake as a sweet treat and apparently whomever cut the slices made them too small so they gave me two but only charged me for one. Half a star for the gooey butter cake and espresso martini. Neither was the best instance of either I've ever had but they were the best part of the actual meal. Unfortunately, I think I made the wrong entree choice. I went with the biscuit (singular) and gravy and a side of sausage links. The biscuit is described as "jumbo" but didn't feel much bigger than what I'd consider a regular-sized biscuit. It also wasn't nearly as fluffy as I would have liked and was quite tough and hard at points, nearly requiring the use of a knife to cut it. The gravy was relatively flavorless and wasn't improved much by either salt or pepper. The sausage links were passable. I'm willing to give the shop another shot (and order something different) once I try some other brunch places on my list but I was a little disappointed on this visit because I wanted to like my food more.

The outside is very unassuming; I'd driven by this place sooooo many times and never even noticed that it was a diner! It looks just like many old-timey STL buildings which just adds to the charm. Once you walk in, it's like teleporting to the past. It isn't fancy, but it is packed (and rightfully so). It was just myself when I went, so I was able to be immediately sat at the bar which was a nice surprise considering it was packed on a holiday (Labor Day) morning. The server was very nice and attended to whatever I needed efficiently despite juggling a lotta different folks. For the food & drinks, I started off with a nice cold brew. I didn't love the taste, as it was almost tea-esque, but to be fair I don't drink a lot of cold brew so maybe that's just how it is. I decided to get some Sopapillas as an appetizer as I'd heard they were good and they definitely did not disappoint. They arrived very quickly, were hot out of the fryer, and tasted amazing! They were pillowy soft and just sweet enough while not being overbearing. I added a little honey on top and it was like I was in heaven. There were 5 in the order and I had to stop myself after quickly devouring 3 within 2 minutes. That's how good they were. Onto my entree, I went with the Breakfast Burrito with homemade sausage. I am a big breakfast burrito guy, and a pretty tough critic, but I've gotta say that this was one of the best breakfast burritos I've had in recent years for sure. There was just enough cheese to add flavor and make it the perfect texture without being too much. The sausage had an incredible flavor that complemented the egg, home fries, and chiles perfectly. After devouring half of the burrito in under 90 seconds, I once again had to restrain myself and opted to take my leftover home before I made some really good but bad decisions (aka eating wayyyy too much). Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here. The vibes & food were immaculate despite the location and decor feeling very unassuming.
