Just finished a perfectly grilled cheese sandwhich (on sour dough bread!) which I appropriately dipped into my steamy hot bowl of creamy tomato soup. Yum, yum, yum. Better hurry if you want this February special. But if you can't get there in time, don't worry, there are many delectable items on their creative menu. Their top-notch friendly service makes this one of my favorite food stops every week. read more

I enjoyed the comfortable cafe atmosphere and kind service. I ordered the 'My Ham Jam'. I thought the prosciutto had great flavor and their gluten free flatbread was delicious. I feel like the dish itself was way too sweet though unfortunately with too much jam and honey. read more

This was my first time and the restaurant is very nice and accommodating. The decor was very pretty. I came here for light lunch and a glass of wine. The selections looked great and we chose the spinach artichoke dip and the salmon board. They both were DELICIOUS! The dip was so rich and savory and the crackers went well with the dip. The smoked salmon was very tasty and the capers and cheeses went well with it also. We ordered a Rose and Chardonnay, both wines were very fruity and good. The service was great. The prices were goo. This is definitely a go-to for lunch with the girls, however, I will be bringing my husband back for the live music on set days. read more

What a fantastic find!! The food scene on "this side of the river" is a challenge sometimes. I'm so happy to see so many up and coming places in the area. Rendezvous has something to offer everyone. Breakfast lunch dinner and wine bar they have it al I met a friend this week for breakfast. Rendezvous is right on Main Street with ample parking in the rear. The indoor space is cozy and quaint with a variety of seating options. There's also plenty of outdoor space when the weather is nice. The team is so kind and welcoming. I was seated at a cozy table while I waited for my friend to arrive. I have never been one to turn down a mimosa. Especially when it's an apple cider mimosa!!! An absolutely perfect drink for fall. For my meal I went with the breakfast burrito. I highly recommend trying this one!! A generous burrito filled with eggs, cheese, bacon, peppers, and onions covers with sausage gravy. I was only able to eat half of this hearty meal. I took the other half home and had it for breakfast the next day. Pro tip: heat at 350 for 15 minutes or in the air fryer. A crisp outside and a fluffy delicious inside. We also went with the French toast. Also a must try item. Thick pieces of toast served with a side of your choice. I'm not sure what was better this visit: the food, the service, the ambiance, or the company. Grab your friends and go check them out! read more

Tried this cute little place out on Saturday! My favorite espresso to date!!! Will be back with my friends for brunch and espresso martinis. This one has PB added to it. Thanks Patrick!!! read more

We used one of their rooms for a small party for 10. Service was great. Loved the seasonal menu. i selected an apple cider mimosa and autumn salad of greens, fruit, pecans with a fruity vinaigrette. The bruschetta and sandwiches my dining companions looked good too. read more

We struggled for an option for a quick breakfast. They are labeled as having breakfast options. Should have noted that the usual breakfast staples of pancakes weren't on the list. Biscuits and gravy was mundane, with too much gravy obscuring where the biscuits even were. My bacon was great, but when I later saw the cleaning area, I realized that it could have gone wrong. Wife got eggs, a hash mixture, and sourdough toast. Eggs were bland, the hash was unimpressive, and the toast was unidentifiable from a generic white bread. The saving grace was that the service and ambiance were good. But on the way out we saw the back door open (parking out back). Observing the distinct lack of cleaning skills were scary. Neither of us came away sick, but the pictures attached are of where they "clean" the dishes. I've been in kitchens all over, and even toured mom and pop kitchens in Mexico that were in better shape. This was scary... read more

I've always loved this little place. I've been many times and always enjoy it. They have a very nice wine selection, and everything I've ever eaten here has been delicious. They have a selection of muffins and bagels and a few other breakfast options, along with lunch options, such as tapas, soups, salads, and sandwiches. My personal favorite is the New York, New York sandwich (it used to be called The Big Apple), which is a panini with sliced smoked turkey breast, Applewood bacon, Granny Smith apple slices, provel cheese, and a delicious ground mustard Dijonnaise on focaccia. They sometimes have live music, and they also have a small outside patio area great for days when the weather is nice. I recently heard that the establishment underwent a change of management this year, so I'll be interested to see what it's like the next time I go in. The only slight drawback here is that getting in and out of the parking lot can be a bit tricky. You have to turn down an alley between their building and another building to get to and from the parking lot, and there is only room for one car in that alley. Fortunately, I've never encountered a car coming from the opposite direction, but I'm always a little nervous pulling into or out of the lot, because I have no clue what to do if a car is ever coming the other way. There's certainly not enough room for two cars, so someone will have to back up if that ever happens, which will be awkward. I don't know what they can really do about that, but it's worth noting. read more

Amazing food service and atmosphere I would highly recommend this restaurant coffee shop / wine shop to anyone young or old. They have a great outdoor and indoor area with plugs for computers nice couches and their staff is friendly and cool. I will be frequently this place for my coffee and a great alternative to the big box coffee shops. Shop local and support your local economy. read more

Had a bridal shower at this venue. Food was good. Five days prior to event was informed by owner that advertised "Bottomless Mimosas" $10/person but then $40 per bottle of champagne. This is not advertised with the bottomless mimosas. At that point we had to move forward with the venue that had been secured and deposit paid since January. Needless to say the "bait and switch" was disappointing as the bottomless mimosas for $10/pp was a deciding factor! read more

New owners are breathing new life into Rendezvous! I love the updated decor, and the new additions to the menu are fantastic. The "OMG the BLT" truly is OMG--and served with a side of candied peaches that are also out of this world. Can't wait to go back soon and try the New York New York panini. read more

I went to a bridal shower here a few months ago and when my bookclub was deciding our next spot to meet I knew I wanted to come back! The decor is adorable and I loved the food I had. They are definitely struggling for staff and the time between sitting, ordering, and the food being delivered was long. That being said, the wait was worth it! The portions here are amazing and the staff is unbelievably kind. I hope that they are able to find some more employees soon so I can continue to enjoy this lovely spot! read more

Had a girl's lunch here and had amazing service, amazing food, and amazing drinks. We also got some cupcakes to go and the apple cupcake (seasonal) was so good it made me want to go to church in the morning. read more

First time I've been since new ownership. It's just not the same. The food is not as good as it used to be. I always enjoyed going there but I think today was my last time. And I don't think I'm alone. The place was nearly empty. Maybe the new owners should have kept things as they were. read more

This place is cute! I used to like to come here to study occasionally. Has a decent food selection along with lots of different drink choices. read more

Seen some lady complaining about the prices going up at this business under the new owners. I have seen the place being cleaned up, painted and some changes being made. Inflation has everything going up and small businesses can't just eat those increases. If you don't want to pay more for a place you can sit in the a/c and have others cooks and serve you food then stay home or go to a drive through! I think the prices here are still very reasonable! read more

Went to celebrate my grand baby's graduation with dinner at Rendezvous and had a horrendous experience. The service was very slow and had to constantly search for waiters/waitresses in order to get our food ordered and pay in the end. The prices recently skyrocketed and became very expensive for me and my family. This use to be a place that was inexpensive to me, but not anymore. I will be needing to take out a loan for the next time I go to this establishment. I do not recommend. I also heard there are new owners, what else has changed? read more

We were out and about exploring one afternoon and decided to grab some lunch. I did a yelp search for cafe/wine bars nearby and this gem popped up. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but don't let that dissuade you, this place is great. The staff is super friendly, attentive and efficient. The outside patio dining under the covered pergola was great, and our pups were welcomed. Food was perfect. I had a chicken salad sandwich on a croissant and my husband had the turkey club. The menu had wine pairings which made it easy to try something new. We had everything eaten before I thought to take a shot of the plate. read more

Hash brown casserole, breakfast bowls, quiches, and coffees & lattes galore for breakfast. Great menus for the rest of the day, too, including homemade soups, salads, sandwiches. Event space for meetings, birthdays, bridal/baby showers, etc. Small group or individual live music entertainment in main room or on patio, with ample seating options. Rendezvous offers a full monthly calendar of events, & my personal favorite is the wine pairings dinners, affordably priced in the $30-$40 range per person, which include delicious small plates with each wine introduced! I've been going to Rendezvous for meetings, events, & dining for 10+ years. In the last year, I joined the Wine Club, & I brought my daughter for breakfast today & to pick up my two bottles of wine. We enjoyed our tasty, hearty meals, and my daughter's observation was how HOT the lattes and the Breakfast Bowl was upon serving. She'll be back, too. "I Rendezvous, Do You?" read more

Stopped in here with friends, to grab a bite to eat before a play at O'Fallon Municipal Centre, and this place fit the bill pretty nicely. Love that they serve breakfast all day, and of course, that's what I got. Others had lunch items. Their coffee was really good. Didn't try any of their cocktails, but would love to come back and give them a shot... Both the food and service were good. My one complaint would be that they had some machine behind the counter (coffee grinder? blender? something!) that was EXTREMELY loud. Like, stop your conversation and let them finish what they're doing before continuing. read more

Best surprise birthday dinner with my boyfriend! Thr food was so good! Especially the artichoke spinach dip...oh myyyyy gooodd!The vibe is nice and was the place was so cozy with the lights outside and the jazz music on Thursdays was nice! Definitely be back for sure! read more

Food was overpriced, cold, very small portions . Entertainment was also unimpressive. Overall underwhelming date night.

Scheduled a Rehearsal Dinner and paid deposit, a month in advance. Showed up with 35+ people only to find out no one put our party on the schedule. They had Friday night music in the room we booked. The only thing they offered was their apology. No accommodation. I was very happy to take my money elsewhere. They will NEVER get a dime from myself or the entire wedding party! read more

I found this place by accident when I was 20... now at 31 I love it even more than I did 11 years ago. It was a lunch place for me back then and continues to be a favorite anytime I was a sandwich/salad for lunch. Their service is wonderful and you can tell it's one big happy family. My appreciation for this place grew when I discovered their wine tastings. The owner does an amazing job and finding the right small plates to accompany each wine. I've had the best chicken pot pie ever and also smoked deviled eggs! Never would've thought to do that but it's amazing. If you're looking for a place with a non-pretentious, easy going atmosphere you should check it out! Great patio and always lots of events going on. read more

If I could give this place 3 and a 1/2 stars, I would. Rendezvous is a local business that first began in 2006. This cafe and wine bar offers many events including: wine tastings, live music, etc. I have been here a handful of times and, while the atmosphere is great, the service is extremely slow and the food is just okay. I will be attending a wine tasting late February and will update my review on that aspect of the restaurant then! P.S. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available (weather permitting)! read more

Rendezvous - Belgian Waffle - Cocktail Bars Near Me - O'fallon, Missouri

New owners and so much has changed. Ordered quiche this morning (in the past my favorite breakfast which previously was served with fruit and a mini muffin). Order comes out and it's only a piece of quiche. The top was so hard a fork would not go through it. The inside was not warm. Talking to our server I found out there are many customers favorite dishes that are no longer served. read more

The ambiance was so nice! Live music (not too loud). Sat outside has a nice cocktail and spent time with hubby! He had a wine flight. Great date place! The service was a bit slow. But the girls were working really hard. A bit understaffed but all in all a I've experience. read more

This cafe has a lot to offer from coffee, food, live music, and even wine dinners. The Frenchman is hands down one of the best French Dips I have ever had. So much flavor in every bite and a good amount of food for the price! The potato salad side is again, one of the best! Recently I tried the quiche and it was just okay. I probably won't order it again and I was still hungry shortly after. Like every where else, this place obviously has it's hit or miss items. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is mainly the atmosphere. The patio is fantastic! But the inside can get noisy quickly and just has an odd feel to me whether day or evening. I'm never sure whether I should seat myself as there is a register with menus when you walk in yet waitstaff takes your order. There also many separate rooms where you can choose to sit and for some reason I find the process awkward here. All goes well until it's time for the check. I've had staff disappear a couple times and I've never really figured out if you pay the waitstaff or go to the register as I've been asked to do both. Either way, I still keep coming back for the food and the beloved wine dinners. read more

Super food. Very accommodating for our book club. LOVE the Brussel sprout flatbread, Greek salad, breakfasts and tea. Highly recommend!

Rendezvous is a local gem. I don't think some people realize how lucky we are to have them in our community. You won't find lattes this good anywhere else in the area! Small business owners like Tom are so important, they give back and care about our community! There's just something so special about a small locally owned cafe vs a chain or franchise. Please go to Rendezvous and enjoy the cozy ambiance of a true coffee shop, pick anything from the menu because it's all great, and try and have some patience if service is not the speediest. Relax and enjoy your time. read more

Terrific day for outside day drinking and food. Very nice atmosphere, friendly service...and wonderful food. Had the reuben with coleslaw. One of the best I have had. Coleslaw was creamy and tasty. Wife had the turkey and bacon panini with French onion soup. Again, everything was perfect and brought to us right on time. Drinks were strong enough to justify the price - and the price was good. We really enjoyed our lunch - and will do it again very soon! Well done. read more

Stopped here for the first time for an early lunch. Loved the decor, the cleanliness, the service and the food. We had the tuna sandwich with the house potatoe salad and my wife had the sandwich on a pretzel roll with the same side. We both thought this was a real find and the food was great. Such a quaint, relaxing lunch spot. read more

Amazing food and service!! The air is good for a dinner or even studying and it's priced decently too

We eat here regularly. Breakfast is delicious. Staff is always friendly. Quaint decor as well as outdoor seating.

Tried to go here for brunch today. Wanted to give a local restaurant a chance. Website said they closed at 3pm. We arrived at 2;35 and were told they are closed. The kitchen has already started shutting down. If that is the case, then update your website to say you close at 2:30, not 3pm. Will not go back. read more

I was there for a private event. The owner was clearly unhappy that we were there and that we expected attentive service. She made us attendees extremely uncomfortable with her salty interaction with the poor hostess. After the fact, I've come to find out that there was nearly $1k in extra charges and hidden fees/unmentioned wine service/linen service/etc. Beware if booking s private event - get EVERYTHING in writing. read more
