What a cute little lunch place! Parking is limited unless you want to pay the city $5 for their lot. I had to park a short distance away. The cafe is small, like maybe 10 table and space for 5 at the bar. Food was excellent. I had the grilled chicken Sammie and rosemary potatoes. And the sweetest staff working! Go check them out for breakfast or lunch! read more

What a CUTE spot! Perfect for smaller groups for Breakfast, Brunch or Lunch with a fantastic Food & Drink Menu! Inside AND small patio out front are decorated beyond belief. Staff was super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend joining the waitlist online prior to showing up! Service was outstanding also, it's a very efficient restaurant experience. Our small group ordered a lot of different things off both the food and drink menu and everything was delicious. read more

I came across this cute brunch spot in Cottleville. Apparently they just opened this past Wednesday. I love their decor and that it coincides with their name. This is just what this area needed and I'm so glad it is here. Our server was patient and kind. I always have a few questions so being patient does a long way with me. We ordered the BLT (added an egg) and the breakfast burrito with rosemary potatoes as the side. We came in right before the kitchen closed at 2:30. Our food came out really fast, which is always a plus. The food was so good and we cannot wait to return! read more

We got a table very quickly. Interior is so beautiful and well decorated! Ordered a chai latte and the harvest hash. The chai was good, nothing special. The harvest hash was so delicious, the sausage was very well seasoned and the veggies were cooked perfectly! read more

Join the waitlist on their website before you head over!!! I went on a Sunday for brunch so I knew it would be busy. I got on the waitlist around 9:30am and arrived at 11:30am when my table was almost ready - just to give you an idea of why the waitlist is strongly recommended. Once seated, service was quick! The server was also friendly and helpful. I loved the winter latte specials they offered, and mine came out like 3 minutes after I ordered it!! I also ordered biscuits with honey and they were delicious. My friend ordered biscuits & gravy, and the gravy was amazing - it had a unique spicy-ish seasoning to it. The inside is beautiful. They thought of every detail to make it look aesthetically pleasing. I would love to go back sometime, but probably during the week when it's less crowded! read more

I've been to Pink Willow twice now and both times have been a fantastic experience! They're usually pretty packed so there will possibly be a wait but they also have a couple bar seats as well. The ambiance is beautiful and perfect for some photo ops. I highly recommend the rosemary potatoes and the honey cinnamon latte! read more

Met a friend for breakfast here during the week. The place is so cute! The food was wonderful and I definitely want to try more. We had two of their specialty drinks before we hit the shops. They include every detail you can think of and went above and beyond in every aspect. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful! read more

Love this place!! I brought my daughter to Pink Willow Cafe after we had an overnight Girl Scout event and we were heading home but wanted to grab lunch. Since we had never been there we did not know they would have a wait list an hour long... they were so awesome and found us 2 seats at the "counter". (You can get on the wait list ahead of time on their website). This place is adorable! So much pink! I am definitely planning to come back for a brunch with friends! We both had sandwiches from the lunch menu. Our server was named Drew, she was awesome and super helpful as my daughter had many questions and was sharing details about our Girl Scout event and Drew listened to everything she had to say. I believe they have a rooftop section and there are some tables outside but it was raining when we were there so inside seating was the only choice. Everything was amazing but the ambiance really made it special! read more

After thoroughly enjoying our brunch/lunch here, I wanted to give 5 stars - but I also like to see why others give their low star ratings. So I read some of them. Some were for poor service or other problems that seemed legitimate, but were nonexistent for us. And most all of those were from back a ways, so perhaps the issues have been ironed out. And then there are always what seems to be a silly gripe that set off the reviewer and made them give one star - e.g. they advertise as brunch but stop serving breakfast at 11 - when actually they only stop pancakes and French toast at 11. I discovered from the owner's comment that this is because the only griddle is then needed for other lunch choices. Perhaps that should be added to the menu. It was a bit of a disappointment when I was seated at 11:05, saw the neighboring table's awesome-looking blueberry French toast but then could not order it. However, my Mind your own biscuits and gravy were great. I liked how the gravy was sausage-forward. It was also a redder gravy, almost cajunish. The biscuits are more like a scone, which was a change up, but still enjoyable. And getting your egg of choice on top was a bonus for flavor. I figured that I would want more than just the single biscuit and gravy, and saw that I could get a side biscuit with butter and jam for $5. But then also saw that I could order the scratch biscuit basket for $10, and it comes with four biscuits, butter, honey, and jam! So I got that and wound up bringing three biscuits home. The wife's adult grilled cheese (read with bacon), was quite savory. And I liked the rosemary potatoes that came with it. I saw that another review complained about their saltiness, but I liked that salt. You mileage may vary. Oh, and to start we ordered two masala chai lattes. Tasty. Could have been a bit hotter, but that usually seems to be the case with lattes. Our service was just fine, as it appeared to be for all the guests as I observed the workers. The place was packed, yet our water, drinks, and food all came promptly, with frequent checks for refills, any needs, and to clear dishes - without feeling rushed. read more

I wanted to love this place!! But it was meh. Food was ok, but the 6 of us did not rave about it. Coffee brand was not good. Adorable pink decor. Rooftop was so nice on a fall sunny morning. Service is not why you are going there. QR code ordering and food delivered in a cart. Don't expect any help if you ask for something. I get the business model. But over all my group of ladies were underwhelmed. Try it for yourself. read more

We went the Saturday before Mother's Day about 9:30am and it was PACKED. A bit chaotic and felt unorganized but we figured it out. Since the place has very limited seating, I highly suggest seating upstairs on the rooftop. That's what we did. You order on your phone and staff brings it up (although I was expecting to have to go get it). The coffee was good. The candied bacon was very good! My son and husband enjoyed the pancakes and a breakfast sandwich. The potatoes were good too. The biscuits were underwhelming we thought and the sausage gravy had more of a Cajun feel than traditional. We will go again and glad they are in the area! read more

We were really disappointed with our experience. We ordered drinks and a cinnamon roll to share before our main dishes. It was brought out without any silverware or even napkins. Since it was a sticky, shared item, we weren't about to dig in with our hands. Our waitress stopped by shortly after, and when we asked for silverware, she said she'd bring it right out. Unfortunately, she didn't return for about 10 minutes. By the time we finally had utensils, the cinnamon roll was completely cold. She offered to take the dish back to the kitchen to reheat it, but it was returned unchanged because we were told it was against health code to bring food back into the kitchen. She then asked if we'd like her to check with the manager about getting a new one, and I said yes. The manager came out and told us it was a very popular item and they didn't have any more to replace it. The only solution offered was a to-go box with reheating instructions - not helpful for something we ordered specifically to enjoy there before our meal. So we ended up eating it cold, and it remained on our bill. I wasn't asking for anything unreasonable - just to enjoy the dish as it was intended to be served. Losing a customer over a $6 cinnamon roll feels shortsighted. It's disappointing that such a simple issue wasn't handled better. read more

The coffee and food was great! I got the apple, bacon, and havarti sandwich with fries. They didn't have ranch, but the garlic aioli did the trick. The coffee had strawberry, vanilla, and hazelnut coffee. It was pretty good and not too sweet! I was pleasantly surprised! The atmosphere was so cute and pink. Perfect for brunch with the girls. The service was just a tad bit slow but that's understandable since it's always packed. DEFINITELY get on the wait list ahead of time. There's no way anyone would be able to walk in on a Sunday at peak hours. I was glad to be able to try this cute little place! read more

I've been in twice now, and this probably has to be my new favorite spot. My first visit was during breakfast hours. I was seated out on their front patio. The inside and outside spaces are adorable and comfortable. I was greeted warmly by the team on my arrival. My server was friendly and prompt. I ordered both visits via QR code at my table. My breakfast visit meal included a London fog tea. The barista expertly concocted the perfect drink to my sweet but not to sweet specifications. My meal consisted of the avocado toast with a side of bacon. My only suggestion would be to season the avocado mash with a little salt and pepper. The bacon is first rate thick crispy slices. My second visit I met friends for lunch. We were seated on the rooftop terrace. The space was bright but offered umbrellas to keep things cool and comfortable. I'm on a lavender kick this summer so the lavender lemonade with edible glitter was as refreshing as it was beautiful. I decided that the bacon was so fantastic at my last visit, I figured the BLT was the obvious lunch choice. I was not disappointed. I added a little avocado for flair. A side of fries rounded out my meal. A must visit spot, highly recommend. read more

Truly a delightful place to meet up with a friend and have amazing food with great service. Truly love this place.

Go for a drink, stay for the food. Our server was so kind and did a wonderful job. The food and drinks both came out quickly. Try the specialty drinks! My infused lavender lemonade was so delicious and overall beautiful. Fairly simple menu made delicious with the accommodating bread and sauces. The candied bacon on the BLT or addition to a sandwich is a must! read more

My daughter and I went to this cute place on a Saturday. We went before hitting the farmers market. First, the staff was very accommodating. Once we went inside it was very loud. It's a small place, so it didn't take much for the volume to be elevated. The staff helped us get a table outside and it was 100% better. The menu is the perfect "size". Not too many choices, but just enough to make any patron happy. I enjoyed the sweet potato hash with micro greens. Now, I would probably let customers know they are cilantro greens since many people are not fond of them. I am not one of them, so I loved the added freshness. The iced mocha was very delicious. I will definitely be going back, but only if I can sit outside again. Lovely little gem in Cottleville. read more

Place is adorable! It is very tiny. I ordered a salad with grilled chicken and poppyseed dressing. I'm always nervous to order salads with dressing "as is", but this had the absolute perfect ratio of salad to dressing and it was absolutely delicious. The service was very friendly, but there was no refilling of my water, and I attribute that to how jampacked it is in there with all of the tables full. read more

A very cute new cafe is Cottleville. The wait times can be long but they text you when your table is ready. We enjoyed shopping at the nearby boutiques while waiting. They have a large menu considering the space and kitchen are pretty small. The menu has a daily soup and quiche option but it wasn't noted that those may not be available on certain days or are considered seasonal. The food we ordered was tasty. The coffee and rose wine were also nice. I really like the pay at the table option using a QR code. read more

I've been excited to finally have a brunch spot in Cottleville - this is exactly what has been missing. For being open only a few weeks, I expected some hiccups - but there were none! The wait was long, but that is expected and is great for a new business - be sure to check the wait list early. The servers were wonderful, the food was fantastic, and each detail in the decor, mocha art, and design made this the perfect brunch spot. So excited to have something like this in Cottleville, and very impressed already! read more

No WiFi. Was in the area and needed to get some charting done between patients. I love finding cool cafes to check out. Ordered coffee & was going to get breakfast but I asked the server for the WiFi password she said they don't have WiFi for the customers. So I took my coffee to go and found somewhere else. I can't really understand a cafe of all places not having WiFi?? More of a place to go just for an instagram story. Can't speak for the food. My $7 coffee was fine. read more

The food is good and I like coming here to eat outside in the porch with my friends. The Grilled Cottlville Chicken Sammie is a go to.

What we ordered: The fried egg sandwich(subbed the fried egg for a scrambled egg and added the sausage gravy on the side), Avocado Toast, The sunrise hash bowl (subbed sweet potatoes for regular potatoes), and the French toast. Would I go again: I honestly don't know what I was expecting but the food surpassed all of my expectations! The sausage gravy was some of the best I've ever had and it was so delicious on the potatoes (and on the breakfast sandwich). All food items are $16 and under which is amazing for the amount of food you get! The cafe is quite small and reservations are accepted up to 72h in advance, otherwise you can add your name to the waitlist on their site or once you arrive. read more

This place was adorable and the ambiance was fun and elegant. We waited over 30 mins for a table, but it was a busy Sunday. The restaurant is loud, but seemed to be perfect for a "girls" lunch or brunch. The coffees looked adorable, but I was already fully caffeinated. I wanted to try several things on the menu, but settled on the Buddha Teriyaki Bowl. Although visually appealing, it was underwhelming, having zero flavor. Even after asking for extra teriyaki sauce, which it seemed they initially forgot to add (see photos), it still lacked the flavorful punch that most Asian food has. My hubby got the BBQ summer salad and my kids enjoyed the Adult BLT and cheeseburger kids meal. They seemed to enjoy all of them. I'd give this place another try, but I'd go during breakfast, on a week day, and I'd pass up the Buddha bowl for sure. read more

I ordered the Lemon curd French toast, my kids ordered pancakes, which are huge. Also ordered a cinnamon roll as a breakfast appetizer, the four of us devoured it quickly, it was delicious. Prices for food is okay, coffee, in my opinion was over priced. $4 for a simple black coffee and was never even offered a refill. The indoor atmosphere was very, very loud. read more

This place was alright, could've been better. Went for my birthday and seemed like the place was ran by high schoolers. I asked for no ham on my sandwich and came with ham, then I let them know and they said ok sorry. Then they brought out my sandwich without the fries. Got my fries they had ketchup with them and not bbq. I asked for bbq and said they were out even though she offered it to me while ordering.. felt kind of rude when they asked if we wanted the check while we were still eating. read more

There is zero sound proofing inside this establishment and the cacophony of sounds was deafening and horribly loud. Nothing about eating inside would be relaxing or enjoyable. As such we waited longer for an outside table. Our waitress was nice but told us she had 8 tables between inside and outside, she was running around very frazzled. We got French 75's, I got the sweet potato hash and my friend got the biscuits and gravy. The drinks were great and presented well. The biscuit was very hard and the gravy was cold when we received it. It was send back and remade and the gravy was hot and better the second time around. The sweet potato hash was good but could have used another egg on top. For the size of the bowl and portion two eggs as proteins just feels like it makes mores sense. The lurking people waiting for their tables hanging around the patio and the street really kind of took away from your experience as they were just aggressively watching you waiting for you to be down so they got their turn. Overall I was mostly underwhelmed at best. I wouldn't go out of my way to go again. The "quaintness" is lost by the horribly loud acoustics and lurking table waiters. read more
