As of 2025, Sump remains my favorite coffee spot in the STL area. I buy their beans to use at home consistently and still get a latte every time I'm in the area. They recently had a sticky toffee pudding latte and it was 10/10. Thanks, Sump & team for consistently providing a quality roast! *Fun note, Sump was my first non-Starbucks latte experience, and it truly changed my life. read more

The place looks very cool. It's more modern with some stools and a wood slab table near the entrance. I can't speak for any of the other drinks, but the lattes that I've had here (twice now) tasted like it was watered down and didn't have any flavor. The espresso wasn't strong. I went back and tried it for the second time and the coffee had a salty tang when I first start sipping, which teased a good drink, but then when I swallowed there is no flavor whatsoever. It was so weird, I've never had that happen before. You get such a small cup of coffee for $7 and it doesn't have much flavor. I won't be going back, but it has a nice ambiance and maybe some of the other drinks would be worth trying. read more

Sump Coffee - Salted Maple Latté - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Back when I lived in Illinois people would drive over an hour to come visit this coffee shop because they had such a good coffee. When I came, I got a seasonal espresso tonic, and it was super great. Espresso tonics can be hit or miss so I was really excited that this one was really good. They served their drinks in reasonable cups with reusable straws, which was super cute and sustainable! Although I am a little worried about how they're cleaning the straws lol. It's got a decently large interior but when we came on a Saturday morning there weren't that many seats available. There was some seating outside, which was nice. I would definitely come back here and try some of their staple drinks. read more

Is there a way for something to be both well manicured and grunge? If there is, sump has perfected it. A south jefferson gem with some super solid coffee. A few exterior tables were filled with readers on a sunny sunday morning. The interior was full of friends, family, and the like sharing good conversation. I knew the coffee would be good because not 1 cup had any coffee left! The service was great. Workers were polite, friendly, and efficient. Definitely one of the better coffees i have had in stl as well. I did not realized i lived so close, this may become a problem! Lord help me! read more

What a delight to have a specialty coffee shop in St. Louis! They roast single origin coffee beans locally. The decor is very cool and almost gallery like. It was also my first time seeing a Poursteady, too (an automatic pour-over coffee machine). Our orders: Colombia Gerson Mora (Natural) Pour Over ($8.75): notes of pink lemonade, pomelo, and papaya. It's super bright and layered. Chocolate Latte (Mocha) ($6.00): smooth, rich, not overly sweet -- really well done! read more

Found this shop along our road trip route. Super cool building and shop. Was feeling something refreshing without milk. I got the Dark and Darker which is a cold brew mixed with a nitro cold brew. It hit the spot and it was very refreshing. The cafe inside is decorated really cool. A lot of attention to detail. There were some lattes I wanted to try! Next time though! Service was fast! read more

It's always a joy to discover a new coffee spot, especially if it has nice vibes and good coffee. I was initially worried about parking because it's only street parking, but there was plenty of parking on the nearby streets on a weekday morning. Perhaps weekends might be less available. I chose the sumpkin spice latte among their seasonal options, and it was the perfect amount of pumpkin spice. Service was quick and easy! Outside patio was a pleasant place to sit as well. read more

Hands down the best coffee and best coffee shop in St. Louis. The only thing that could make it better is if they opened a branch in my subdivision out in the county. I love the location. I love the staff. And the coffees roasted by Sump are some of the best I've ever had. I return to this location again and again. read more

I may have a small bias because Sump is in my home city, but I have also been doing laps around the country and I truly believe they are the best coffee roasters in a 500 mile radius. The only place in the world that had coffee standards that were similar is cafes in Italy. read more

This coffee shop sits at the corner of a city intersection, small front patio with tables and chairs, being a shrub wall. Great spot. Inside the 1900 store front is a decor dripping with attitude. The service is excellent and the product is exceptional. Yes, meet here, sit, and/or read you will enjoy your choice. read more

I love Sump! When comparing all the lattes I have tried in St. Louis (even Chicago and New York), Sump's lattes are some of my favorites. The espresso is fresh, the milk is meticulously frothed, and their flavor combinations are a balance between innovative and classic. The lattes have a wonderfully smooth texture and are never too sweet. My go to latte is the Vanilla Rum Latte ($6). Today, however, I mixed it up and tried a lavender vanilla latte ($6). The lavender added an earthiness that balanced the sweetness of the vanilla syrup perfectly! I mainly stick with lattes at Sump but have also enjoyed their pourovers. I have never had a negative experience with the team working at Sump. They are warm, welcoming, and kind. The wait for your order is standard: 5-10 minutes, depending on how busy it is at that time. In terms of the ambiance, Sump embodies an alternative, hip vibe. Their branding includes skulls, and their interior design incorporates reclaimed wood accents. However, Sump has limited seating, and it is difficult to find seating during the day if you plan on sticking around. I have also studied at Sump a time or two, but it is not my go-to place to do so due to the limited seating. All-in-all, Sump has some of the best coffee in St. Louis. Despite a somewhat crammed interior, Sump is a go-to spot for me to grab a latte! read more

Coffee is good. Food quality is sub-part. If you overcook a Croissant, then don't serve it to your guests. Why would you do that? That's what did and on more than one occasion. 1) Don't serve inferior or burnt, blackened Croissants. That is completely BS! 2) Offer Small and large size coffee portions. 3) Purchase quality coffee Mugs with rim that doesn't allow Coffee to drip everywhere. You'll notice all the Counters have discoloration where Coffee drips have ruined the appearance. 4) Do better & sharpen your game. Overall, you have good coffee! You just need to employ staff that care about the details. Maybe the other locations are better? Thanks, KBM read more

this is for the coffee, sadly I didn't get a chance to make in to the store but I was given some of these beans on a recent trip and boy was I happy. Really nice, easy coffee to enjoy. the Las Lajas has a bright, clean taste with a little citrus up front and a light honey-like sweetness. It's smooth, not harsh at all, and finishes super clean. I tried it as a cold brew too and it was awesome, refreshing, crisp, and still really flavorful. Just a solid cup all around. read more

If you haven't been to Sump coffee, you need to go! Sump is such a cool vibe inside & as soon as you walk in you see the window art. How neat! I tried their fall menu, I love it because it's nothing too sweet!! The Frittata sandwich is so big you could share it with someone. That largest egg I've ever seen on a Sammy. Service was good too & they were all so helpful! read more

Have been coming to Sump for 4+ years. As a coffee connoisseur and who previously had some involvement in the artisan coffee business through a family venture many years ago, I've seen my fair share of coffee shops in St. Louis and I can certainly say that Sump is the best from everything I've seen. The quality, the level of attention to detail, and the passion they put in their coffee is next level. I hope they stay in business forever. By far the best coffee I've ever had anywhere read more

I feel like you can feel the personable atmosphere whenever you walk into the place. From the ceramic cups they put your pour overs in, to the regulars coming in and the baristas knowing them by name. Lastly, the owner looks super cool, his beard is great, and he actually comes in to make sure his shop is ran efficiently. He also lends a hand and talks to his customers. I feel cozy in here, even though it is bustling. One of my favorite parts is the decor of the place. Black walls aren't really the norm but I love it so much. And the neon sign as soon as you walk in gives a nice accent to the dark walls. Coffee is amazing. I got a latte. So many machines to make your coffee or tea taste great. Will be coming back! read more

The vibes here are excellent and the coffee is too. I'm not a big coffee snob but I do like that their roasts are on the darker side and not too acidic/sour. The flavored lattes are also well-balanced and not too sweet like many places make them. They don't have much on the menu other than pastries but the one thing they do--the frittata sandwich--is probably the best breakfast sandwich I've had in St. Louis (and vegetarian!). read more

I don't need to say much for this place. I've been here a few times and it is always consistently very good. It's my #1 place to recommend for creative and quality roasts to try. This was my first time trying their espresso, and it is equally good in its own way. I may be ordering it again. Also got a 4pack of cold brew to go and added chocolate milk at home, I like 30% milk to 70% cold brew ratio. read more

They roast their coffee on premise. The coffee is of excellent quality! Most of the roasts are on the lighter side, like just after 1st crack though they have started providing some slightly darker roasts. The service is good and you can tell they care about coffee. The ambience is low key and very enjoyable. It's a nicely appointed place. The owner obviously cares about the environment and quality of their bean. I highly recommend Sump read more

First time trying Sump Coffee - heard great things about this coffee shop and they delivered. Tried both the Salted Maple Latte and the Honey Lavender Latte and both had the right balance of espresso with subtle yet distinctive flavors. When walking in, could smell their roastery that is at the back side of the building and the atmosphere was busy with plenty of space to get some work done. Employees were very personable and helpful. Loved my experience! read more

The best cup of coffee in Saint Louis. There isn't really anything I don't like about this place. The branding is cool and kind of spooky in the best way. Their well-curated menu has a lot of great roasts, mostly on the darker side. They're not too pretentious though- there are lattes and other specialty drinks. They have also recently started making chocolate which is delicious, as are their baked goods and breakfast sandwich (which is vegetarian!). Everyone there is friendly and the vibe is so so cool. read more

Sump coffee is a unique coffee shop located off Jefferson in south city. They are known for their in-house roasting and darker/stronger blend of coffee. The coffee tastes great and the latte art is always on point. Its pretty cool what they did with the building and restoring it from its run down days. There is a before picture on the wall. The only challenge is parking since it's on a Main Street, but if you don't mind parking across the street and walking, you won't be disappointed. read more
