Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a place in STL that has actual food and coffee in the…read moremiddle of the afternoon on the weekend? I will tell you, it's not easy. The man wants coffee, when all the coffee places are closed, and I want actual food, not carbs. This is how we stumbled up on Mountain House. He was happy with his order, so I want to tell you about mine. I was so pleasantly surprised with the generous portion of my sandwich and I did not realize my order came with chips too. I was even more pleasantly surprised to see MUD\WTR on the menu, I recently quit drinking caffeine, and of course I have seen a lot of ads for mushroom coffee, I very much appreciated the opportunity to order it here as opposed to having to buy it online to try it. Personally, I liked the mushroom coffee, I have always drank coffee black and I appreciated the flavor of the mushroom, turmeric and additional spices.

Service was quick and our waiter was nice and knowledgeable. Very friendly. I go a coffee and my "friend" got a mimosa. We got the buttermilk biscuits to share and I got the breakfast sandwich. Everything was so delicious. I accidentally dropped my fork on the patio floor and it fell through a crack in the wood and I was too embarrassed to say anything. Everything was amazing and I would love to come back and try some new things like the delicious looking baked goods.

We also enjoyed some flourless chocolate cake and took home a gooey butter cake, which did not last long. Thank you, Russell's on Macklind!

First time coming to this location (but I've tried Goshen before). The matcha lemonade on their…read morespring menu was super refreshing, well-balanced, and not overly sweet. It's one of those drinks that feels perfect on a warm day. I also tried the avocado toast which was decent but didn't quite stand out. It was fresh and nicely presented but not too memorable. The space itself has a great vibe, nice place to sit and hang out for a bit. The cafe hours are also good, it's hard to find one that doesn't close at 2PM. The drinks really deliver and while the food could be a bit stronger, it's still a spot I'd come back to.

I was altogether unfamiliar with this place, but apparently they make their own coffee and they…read morehave a few locations, mostly in Illinois. Do they have school-age children harvesting their beans down in Colombia, chewing coca leaves for the emotional fortitude, or are they just purchasing beans wholesale from Costco and slapping their own label on it, like most of the products at the nearby Soulard Farmers Market? I wouldn't judge them for either of those things, because that's not what I'm about. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. It occurred to me, standing in line, that ordering a Bananas Foster Latte was maybe not the best way to judge or experience this place's coffee, but how was I supposed to pass up such an item, which was available as part of their seasonal menu? I'd order a colonic, if it came in Bananas Foster. Also, who are we kidding? I couldn't tell one brand of coffee from another just based on taste. I can only tell if it's Starbucks if it's burnt-tasting, but even then it could just be Folgers that's been sitting around for a while, waiting to heat up so it can be thrown in Craig Mack's face. I toyed around with the idea of getting a pastry, of which there were several intriguing options on the seasonal menu, but I opted for the burrito instead, due to the novelty and the fact that you could smell them while you stood there in line. I had to have one. I could have gotten both, but then I wouldn't have been able to make rent and I would have had to go live under an overpass along the River Des Peres Greenway near Carondelet Park--and I don't trust some of the people I see over there. For some reason, they were out of the Goshen Burrito but they still had the Founders Burrito, which has all the same ingredients. I took this to mean that they're pre-assembled and possibly defrosted, as is the case with the tacos at Jack in the Box. Regardless, like the tacos at Jack in the Box, the Founders Burrito is damn tasty. Because it's grilled, and it's filled with melted cheese, it's more along the lines of a quesadilla. It's not very big, for the price, but it does come with sour cream, Cholula and salsa verde on the side. which was mighty generous of them. I'm sure the Cholula alone will run you. If I worked there, I'd pilfer a few daily to keep in my pantry. In retrospect, it may not have been the best idea in the world to pair my burrito with a banana-flavored iced latte, made with whole milk. But otherwise it was an excellent selection. The banana flavor really hits you, on your first sip, but then after that there's a real subtlety to it. It's not overly sweet, nor is there an especially strong coffee flavor. I drank the whole thing down in a few gulps, as if I were Andre the Giant pounding beers on the set of the Princess Bride. In part this was because I'd just gone on a run, but also it was that good. If only I could afford to toss these back on the reg.

Dine in, enjoy the patio or grab a nosh and bottle of wine to take to the park. They're open 7am until 6pm, 7 days a week! You can't go wrong here.
