What a gem this place! I had the Alice Walker burger (house made black bean pattie) and it was delish. Came with a yummy side salad with tender kale. My one wish is that they offered whole grain buns. Lots to love with historical naming references throughout the menu for black women who've changed history. Lovely atmosphere. Easy street parking. Good service. Even my meat eating friend loved her veg burger ((funky) with side fries. read more

SweetArt - Throwback vegam burger +kale salad - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

I returned today in celebration of Juneteenth. This time at the new Lindell location. It's not as colorful and bright as the previous location. I actually the exact meal I had the last time I ate there 2 years ago. The Maya Plate but this time with mushrooms. The food arrived timely. I was ready to dig in. They've changed the batter on the fried items. It's much lighter and is kind of blah. The mac n cheese was so much better than I had before. The kale salad is always a winner. The sauce that came with the mushrooms was cold. Not good with my hot mushrooms. I ate all of my salad and maybe half the mushrooms and a third of the mac n cheese. I was no longer hungry so mission accomplished. read more

Octavia Butler would be honored that this dish was named after her. It was so delicious! The staff was cordial, the restaurant was adorned with quotes and art related to the authors they were highlighting. I was on a strict diet at the time so didn't get a chance to check out the pastries but they looked delicious as well. Wish they had one of these in my home town. read more

I always leave SweetArt feeling happy, not only because of the food but also the atmosphere. I am not a vegan, so certain products like the vegan sausage aren't my full cup of tea, but the pastries, potatoes, and tofu scramble are delicious! Their new Lindell location is so perfect because of the natural light and added space. Need to Knows: You order at the register and they bring a number to your table. You also bus your own table. Very community vibe. I highly recommend checking out SweetArt, you know, for the culture! Parking: On-Street Customer Service: Great Cleanliness: AMAZING! Quality of Food: Yummy read more

I've always loved sweet arts baked goods and the cinnamon roll I didn't take a picture of was absolutely delicious. The new location needs some time. The food has never been a strong suit for me as someone with texture issues. The wrap i got was buffalo cauliflower and avocado. It was too wet. The lettuce didn't make sense under the wet buffalo sauce and the avocado was too much together and soggy to eat. The only other issue is I've ordered French fries multiple times and it takes a while to get your order and my fries are never hot, it's very confusing. Will continue to shop baked goods! read more

Sweetart is so dang delicious. I am not vegan or vegetarian, but I do enjoy their offerings. The spot itself is cozy and brightly lit with quotes and art adorning the walls. It's a very welcoming atmosphere. You order at the counter, and I was in the mood for a burger and fries. I got the throwback burger with the sweet burger patty. It came with lots of sauce which isn't my personal preference, so next time I would ask for light. The fries were amazing and seasoned- definitely delicious. I also got a vegan baked treat of a cupcake, which looked like a chocolate hostess cupcake. It was a fun nostalgic choice and tasted delicious. I'd highly recommend visiting! read more

Ack in the day Sweet Art was incredible vegetarian restaurant but based on my recent experience, they're going to have to win me over. I had a vegan chiken sandwich and fries. The food was too salty to my taste. The sandwich had a nice texture and crispiness but overly seasoned. I will have to try them again.Carry out order service was convenient read more

Another location for Sweethart and I'm here for it. This time, they popped up on St. Louis University's campus. The space is super bright and super roomy. Pull up a chair and work all afternoon. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna make this my semi permanent office. Iced Americano, please with a sugar cookie. Don't get too comfortable without me. I kind of stick to things I like. read more

When SweetArt was still at their old location, I had been wanting to try but never made it. Now that their new location is right down the street from me, I had no excuse not to check it out! I visited on a Sunday afternoon around 2 PM. My partner and I had just eaten a big lunch nearby, so we were looking for some sweet treats to share. Safe to say that SweetArt had plenty of options for us! I absolutely love what they've done with the interior. My partner used to live in the apartments above, and their restaurant area had been sitting vacant for years and years. Knowing what it used to look like, they've totally transformed the space. I'm so happy to see that it was given a new life. I think this will be a perfect spot for SLU students to hang out and get some work done. There's so many great seating options, and it really does feel like a bright and welcoming space where you just want to sit down and stay awhile. They also have lots of outdoor seating with huge umbrellas for some nice shade. After much debate, my partner and I selected four bakery items to try. We had a double chocolate pistachio orange cookie, a classic chocolate chip cookie, a chai snickerdoodle cookie, and a chocolate cupcake. The chocolate cupcake was by far our favorite. It looks just like a Hostess cupcake but tastes about a gazillion times better! Seriously so good, and I don't think you can come here without trying one yourself. The chocolate chip cookie was pretty good. I liked the contrast of the salt on top with the sweetness of the cookie. The double chocolate pistachio orange took me by surprise! The orange flavor really came out in the aftertaste, and it was one of the most unique cookies I've ever tried. My partner and I weren't huge fans of the chai snickerdoodle, but it looked really pretty! Obviously I need to come back and try their food menu for the full experience. Their coffee also looked great! read more

Went to SweetArt bakery for brunch. My son started with the cinnamon roll which absolutely rocked. I had the sausage sandwich and my wife had the chicken sandwich both were delicious. My daughter had the oyster mushrooms with Mac and cheese and side salad. I tried the mushrooms and I will have that next time. They were perfect. My granddaughter had the chicken strip and she liked it. Our server was great. And the cafe clean and artsy. SweetArt is well worth the trip. read more

Giving this place a 5 star review off the taste of this cinnamon roll alone, not a vegan by any means but I'll be back to try some more of their menu. The cinnamon roll was perfect could barely tell the difference from a regular cinnamon roll, the icing was sweet but not too sweet and the roll itself was filling a hefty portion to say the les. A Great friend of mine (Jalen) had told me about this spot when he first started working. After they changed location I decided to stop by with my wife to see what's up. The inside I very spacious with plenty of seating. They have some pastries displayed up front and right next to is the coffee bar. read more

Longtime SweetArt fans. First at Shaw then the Foundry... both amazing. Tried the new location for the first time. They have ALOT of kinks to work out like the wait time, the staff, cleanliness etc. and it's understandable being in a new space. It's a bit hard to find, the place was not sparkling clean (not filthy either), the person at the register had really offensive body odor, and we had to wait 1.5 hours for the food. But when we got the food EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING we ordered was bomb!! That's why I am giving a 5 star review. Solely based on the food. Their food is absolutely amazing and imo some of the best vegan options in the area. We will most likely stick to the foundry location from now on however! read more

Brunch here is really tasty. It is just that the portions don't match. It used to make sense pre-covid, so I understand why the prices have gone up. This makes sense to do with friends or if you want to just get out the house and eat somewhere. It's cheaper to make at home BUT the ambiance & the whole ordeal of not having to cook makes it worth it! The service is always phenomenal here too! read more

Mid as mid can get. $21 for three pieces of chikn, bland sauce, cold mac and cheese and warm kale salad. Most of the options on their menu weren't available as well. Skip this one. read more

SweetArt - Maya Angelou Plate - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

I love all of their vegetarian sandwiches but my favorite is the Zora Neale with fries! Their baked goods are all delicious too! The service is friendly but usually a bit slow, so recommend ordering ahead or planning to make a leisurely visit of it. They've messed up our orders a few times, but we will keep coming back. The food is definitely that good! read more

Definitely a great restaurant to go to. I can honestly say this is one of my top vegan restaurants in St. Louis. The customer service was amazing. The lady at the front helped my pick out food items I should try being my first time. The place is really cozy if you're going to sit and eat very nice ambiance. The food was good and couldn't believe that it was all vegan. Well definitely come back! read more

2.5 We saw this business on a food show and wanted to love it sooo much. The interior decorations and cleanliness was great. Love all the art, colors and vibe of the business. Once you walk in you see lots of vegan pastries. We ordered a few and got there a little bit after the opened. We asked them about food and they said the kitchen didn't open until 11:00. We came into town to visit family, but came here first so ended up waiting about 40 minutes for food. If we would've just came in for desserts the and left the rating would've been higher. We ordered all our food at the same time, when I went back up to the counter to get my cookies and they accidentally gave my order to another customer who was gone. They still had enough of what I ordered to recreate my order. They do a lot of cooking and brunch options on Sundays, so we came in from brunch items and could not get any of those items. My son didn't care for his kids meal, but liked the chips. My husband enjoyed the tacos, but said that the Jamaica one needed more seasoning, was too blame and the Sonia was too spicy but he liked it. My fired mushrooms were nice and crispy but had no seasoning. The mac-n-cheese had a weird chipotle type flavor that was not pleasing to me. The kale was fresh, but the dressing on it was icky to me. My husband enjoyed a few bites. My guys enjoyed the dessert. All in all the vibe started good, but the food was not as good as we anticipated all the way from Texas. Would come back to try brunch and give it another try, get the fried mushrooms or desserts. Tip: Also they don't military discount for anyone wondering. read more

SweetArt - Vegan for breakfast - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

This place has some of the best food in St. Louis. There's cinnamon rolls are to die for along with their various tacos and breakfast items. I haven't tried everything on their menu, but I've never had anything that wasn't either good or great. It's all delicious, freshly made, and they never disappoint. I'd highly recommend you try it out. I am a little bummed that they moved from the Shaw neighborhood, but I'm going to check out their new space soon read more

Finally got a chance to try this famous Sweet Art. After seeing their Netflix show and being a native to the city, I still can not believe it took me this long to try this place. After my manager suggested we order here for a work lunch, I was excited and changed my order several times before I settled on the Maya Angelou plate. I enjoyed the cashew mackin cheese and the kale salad. The chickin strips were okay but could have had some more seasoning. The BBQ sauce helped. The rest of the pictures are what my co-workers had, and they seemed to have enjoyed their meals. I included the pictures in case anyone wants to see what they look like. Until next time.... read more

Yeah this place has really fallen off over the years. I've tried over and over to give them a chance since my last post but I see too many changes i don't really care for. My latest visit just did it 1 I'm really having serious doubts if it still African American owned. There was a non Black man there that the employees keep calling boss. 2 they sell alcoholic beverages now. 3 the brownies used to be the best but now there is salt in them and are trash 4 the chocolate chip cookies had salt in them .trash 5 . The sweet burger is just blah now. I've talked to least 5 other people over the years .The consensus that I got was that the total vibe is off of how it used to be. it's like the original owners aren't active in it anymore. The uniqueness that made it stand out is gone. It is now just another vegan/ vegetarian restaurant like the rest. read more

Everyone was nice and all the food is vegan and they do have gluten-free options and I can't wait to try all the treats that I picked up

Beautiful atmosphere. Great staff! Yummy food!!! The ginger orange blossom cookies, And the focaccia pizza!!!!

I am completely shocked that the delicious baked goods we ate were vegan. I would have never guessed unless I knew otherwise! The staff was welcoming and provided excellent service. Besides the delicious baked goods and friendly service, the atmosphere here is inclusive and welcoming. If you are looking for a vegan cafe definitely check this place out. We need to come back to try the savory options. It is a fantastic place to go to get an afternoon pick-me-up, in the Shaw neighborhood! read more

Went for a dessert! The brownie was exactly how a brownie should be. The homemade hibiscus punch was great. I loved the dining area. Mostly enjoyed the few seating outside to allow child to roam. I plan on returning soon to try out their meal items. The service was very attentive as they entertained our stories and provided guidance on their menu. read more

I'm not Vegan and the food was great. I went with a friend, and they did not disappoint. I had the sweet burger w/ caramelized onions and fries. If I didn't know it wasn't beef, I'd swear it was. It was soooo good and hearty. The sauces are unique to the restaurant ( garlic aioli, maple mustard, sweet and ranch) . The decor was cute and simple, and they offer outdoor dining, which is a definite plus for that patio feel. I Give it a A+ read more

SweetArt - Crabless Cakes and grits. - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Sweet Art is such a vibe! I love the ambiance and artsy aesthetic. The music adds to the cozy space. The vegan burgers, chick'n, and tacos are some of the best ever! And the kale salad....devine! Everything is seasoned nicely. This place offers a good selection of sweet treats to enjoy as well. You must try the cupcakes that remind you of childhood chocolate with marshmallow filling. I love everything ginger and they have a ginger kiss cookie. After having it earlier this year and immediately in a choke hold, I went back but learned it was a seasonable offering. After a painstaking wait, the cookie returned and I grabbed a couple to enjoy. Such disappointment. The cookie was unusually salty! Chalking it up to a fluke, I went back yesterday. Before ordering, I asked the team member of the cookies were salty. One replied she favored salt so the salty ginger cookie doesn't bother her. I bought it anyway, but it did bother me. So, while there is likely a market for salty cookies, unfortunately, no more salty ginger kisses for me. Recommendation: if the cookies are salted, consider adding this to the description. read more

SweetArt - Salty Ginger Kisses cookies - Bakeries Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Cupcakes are usually one of the last things I order at a bakery, because most of the time, they are not good. But this time, I looked into the bakery case at SweetArt and I had to get a cupcake. The dark, chocolatey Fauxstess was calling to me. I can spot a delicious cupcake and know for sure that it's delicious -- it's one of my many talents. And I knew that this one was delicious. I was right! (Of course I was.) The Fauxstess cupcake is SweetArt's interpretation of a Hostess cupcake, but it's infinitely better. The cake is soft and moist, there's just a touch of cream in the middle, and the top chocolate glaze is shiny and smooth. It's a great cupcake and I wanted to eat half a dozen of them. Instead, I just got one and then also got a chocolate chip cookie sprinkled with sea salt. The CCC is a litmus test when visiting a new bakery: If the CCC is good, then the place is good. This cookie was great! Which according to my calculations, makes SweetArt great. This place was extremely busy when I visited on a random Wednesday afternoon. There was a steady flow of customers, but I didn't have to wait long at all to get my items. They have indoor seating and a few tables outside, too. The people who work here are very friendly and positive, and this place just has nice vibes. If you want proof of that, visit the restroom and read all of the beautiful quotes they have painted on the walls. read more

It's like 3.8 stars. I was back home and FINALLY got a chance to dine in. I usually go for a burger and chips, but before I ordered, I noticed they now have an oyster mushroom sandwich, so I decided to go with that. I should have stuck with what I know. The OM was lacking seasoning. It was very bland. And missing something, I can't put my finger on it. My cousin(non-vegan) ordered the burger and chips and really enjoyed it. We also ordered a lot of desserts....Lol My favorite was the pecan cinnamon roll. It was delicious. The cookies were just okay. Service was okay. The ambiance was super cute. I'll definitely stop back in the next time I'm home, but I'll stick with the burgers. read more

Great vegan restaurant! I went for their brunch menu on a Sunday. I got the chicken biscuit. The faux maple chicken was DELICIOUS. It was an experience I've never had as a vegetarian for most of my life. Great texture. The muffin was good but had a hard time maintaining it's shape - very crumbly. I know this is a tough issue in vegan baking. The sandwich was good but very small, I really could have eaten 2 of them but instead I got a cinnamon roll for dessert and it was SO good. I was very impressed because I could not tell at all that it was vegan. It was super moist, flavorful, and did maintain it's shape. On the downside, I got there at 2pm (they close at 3:30) and they were out of most baked good. I'll have to try and make it early to try some more stuff. The inside is very simple, cozy, some cute art on the walls. You order at the counter and they bring food to your table. Staff was friendly enough. Would not be good for a big group but was perfect for my friend and I. read more

Happy we live right down the street from here! Easy street parking for this cute little cafe. The inside is well decorated with cute little 2 & 4 seat tables. 100% PLANT BASED! i've gotten lunch and breakfast here and both have beeen pretty good which flavors that mesh well together. The only thing I didn't love was the "eggs" but rest of the plate was delicious. their mac n cheese is also really good. service was great, you order at the counter and they bring you the meal. hoping to keep trying their menu and their coffee. make sure to double check their hours before going! you can also order online. read more

This desert was legitimately the best thing I have ever tasted. I went to heaven for a sec. I actually drooled a little in between bites. I'm not from the area so I will be DREAMING of the strawberry big mama until I die. We also had the Breakfast Taco and papa's breakfast bowl during this visit and both were amazing. During a separate visit we came for dinner-- beware this food sells out! We got there around 7 and some items were already sold out but no worries, the workers were great at suggesting what to get instead and helpful when items were not available after we already ordered them. Everything was delicious and worth the mishap! Wish they were open today so we could come back! Service was also amazing and the space welcoming. Vegans and all should definitely go to this place! read more
