I've been back here a couple of times since my initial review and maybe it's because I ordered different things, but they have been delicious! I've recently had the burrito (with turkey chorizo) and a biscuit sandwich and both were pretty good. The biscuit was a little dry, but the sauce made up for it! I also tried their iced chai and I feel like places usually miss this one, but it was really good! I've both ordered online and eaten in and both have been relatively seamless experiences. You can pick up your online order in the drive thru! read more

Small, casual spot with a laid-back vibe. I do wish they offered more coffee and latte options, though. My caramel latte was fine but lacked a little flavor and pizazz, and I would've loved it in a real mug instead of a to-go cup for dining in. The food, however, was delicious. Their biscuits are giant and perfectly fluffy, topped with great gravy and served with well-seasoned potatoes. My breakfast burrito had all the that good stuff and came with a jalapeño ranch to top it off. Service was pretty quick. Our food actually came out before our coffee, but overall it's a solid choice for a quick, satisfying brunch. I also noticed a back room where they were advertising and decorating cakes, which definitely caught my eye. I'll have to come back to try one next time. read more

I think yolklore is kind of a welcome option in the area since there isn't much around. i actually came here when i was visiting ecotech down the road, since i needed to wait for my maintenance to be completed it's a decently nice space... there is probably enough seating here for like 20 people, and it wasn't too food when i visited. i got some standard breakfast and though it wasn't cheap or anything, i thought it wasn't expensive either the marks against it are that the biscuit was chewy and dry... kind of a miss here. the other thing was that the coffee had ran out for a bit before they refilled it other than that, perfectly serviceable breakfast place read more

I think I made the wrong menu choice and consequently suffered from food envy. Ha. I was trying to go a slightly healthier route and chose baked oatmeal. It was good but my friend's biscuit sandwich looked better. The oatmeal had a baked apple slice on top which was good but could have been better with 2-3 slices. A small side of yogurt is served with it and it really added to the flavor. You order at the counter and then they call your name when food is ready. I didn't have to wait very long for my order. read more

When I told you last year how much I fell in love with Gooey Butter Cake, I wasn't lying. This review is all about the gooey butter cake as I order another one to ship to my house! The cake is delicious and now you can get it with blueberries? Game changer! I cannot wait to try the new one with blueberry. They put so much care to make, package, and ship their cakes. If I had not met the owner and staff when I was there last year, I don't know if I would have ever tried or even found a new favorite dessert. The staff is so friendly, and you can tell their care about their product AND their customers. I will always support this business and continue to order from a far until I can get back to STL. read more

Create your own breakfast sandwich was amazing! I chose a biscuit with scrambled egg, cheddar and bacon. Yum! The bacon was excellent quality and the homemade biscuit was delicious. What a great breakfast spot. Order ahead on Uber Eats and pull through the drive thru! So convenient! Staff was friendly and my order was ready in about 8 minutes! read more

This review is long over due for me, Yolklore is one of my favorite breakfast spots around. I'm not sure I need to tell you how much I LOVE the breakfast burrito; you can tell how excited I am by the two bites taken before I remembered to snap a pic for my review. My first time trying this was around Covid, going through the drive thru and eating in the car with my girlfriend at the time (now wife). I have mostly ordered online and brought home, but they do have some self serve seating there if you want and can find a spot during busier times. I always have a hard time choosing anything other than the breakfast burrito, it is SO good and I could swim in the jalapeño ranch. But I've tried many different items including the breakfast sandwiches, continental breakfast, smash burger, countless weekend specials, and don't sleep on the gooey butter cake for dessert. I really have enjoyed everything I've tried. Orange juice is fresh squeezed and delicious. I don't get it all the time because it is a little expensive, but a delicious treat and a must for the first trip. Different coffee options are good and do the trick for what I want. I recommend following them on social media to see the different weekend specials and occasional collaborations with other local businesses for super tasty dishes. On second thought, be careful, because it always makes me hungry and crave a trip out to try everything they post. I've moved farther and farther away over the past 4-5 years but still make the trip for my top breakfast spot. read more

I had heard great things about the breakfast burrito, was told there were no modifications in a very brash manner (only one other customer in the joint). Ended up ordering the breakfast sandwich. Biscuit was really dry and the side of jalapeño ranch was a nah. read more

I had the classic breakfast carry out. 2eggs over easy w bacon and potatoes and a cheddar jalapeño biscuit. It was tasty. Service was a bit slow at the window and my food was cold when I got it. Yolklore is always a great choice for breakfast. Tiny dining room. Have never eaten in. read more

I needed a place to grab a quick bite and get a little work done. They offer dine in, take out, and drive thru. So many options to grab a great meal. The space is on the smaller side. There are several two and four top tables along with bar sitting. The bathrooms are immaculately clean. I stopped in at breakfast time. I placed my order at the counter and made my way to a table. There are several beverage options, but drip coffee was just what I was needing. My meal was made in quick order. I went with the breakfast burrito and was not disappointed in the least. Just a note: the burritos come premade, so no substitutions on this item. I was hesitant because the burrito contains turkey chorizo. Regular chorizo is too greasy for me, but the turkey version was light and flavorful. The burrito is grilled to perfection and served with a jalapeño ranch for dipping. The best part of this meal were the potatoes in the filling. They were soft and creamy and delicious. I added a little side of grapes for balance. Excellent meal and fantastic experience read more

Just my opinion. For me it's a no. The people were great, but the absolute worst biscuits and gravy I've ever had. Not sure if the bacon was bacon or maybe turkey as it was flavorless. The menu may have specified it and I didn't pay attention. Also they serve boiled potatoes which are ok but again didn't realize it. The coffee was good and strong. Other items have good reviews so there's that. read more

Had some hungover takeaway from yolklore and it was ust what the doctor ordered. I rolled with the classic breakfast which incuded eggs, potatoes, bacon, and a biscuit. The biscuit was awesome. Flaky, crispy, and dense. A little strawberry compote and butter made it the perfect side. Next: the bacon. I am a lover of thick cut bacon so yolklore passes this test. Juicy, thick, and scrumptious. The breakfast potatoes were good too. 2 mini potatoes griddled and salted. Simple. Well executed. We also shared the pancake dippers. I have no idea what was n those things, but they were awesome. There was a little bit of extra flavor on the back end that I could not pinpoint. Perhaps vanilla, or maybe they just had a strong buttermilk flavor. Either way, they were superb. I would love to go back and die in for sure. I solid breakfast with tons of great options! read more

Love this little spot in Crestwood! It's great for a quick breakfast or lunch through the drive-through or go in and sit down and enjoy coffee and breakfast sandwich. I also love their take on vegetarian as it's something different you won't find anyplace else. read more

Food mediocre and bland. Their home made ciabatta is under proofed and under cooked Service behind counter was indifferent. One employee, who delivers food, took up two parking spots at front door with his large pickup truck unconcerned about paying customers Our first and last time to go there. Too many other good breakfast places in neighborhood - would not recommend YOLKLORE read more

Stopped in and am glad I did! Small parking lot and indoor space, but it's welcoming & very tasty. You order at the counter and I tried a pre-made lavender lemonade alcoholic drink. It was refreshing & delicious! Their frittata was so rich and tasty! I'd totally get it again, though I also want to try more of the menu. read more

My fiancé and I had breakfast here this past Saturday when we had some time to kill while waiting for an appointment. It was a great little spot with very friendly staff and just the right balance of quick-but-satisfying food! I had a breakfast sandwich what I "built" myself- avocado, egg, cheese and lemon herb goat cheese. (Definitely get the lemon herb cheese!) ...I just wish I had ordered a side of potatoes because I had to steal them off my partner's plate :) read more

Had breakfast here with a girlfriend, and it was fantastic. The spot can be a little tricky to find if you don't already know where it is, but stick with it, totally worth it! I got the Breakfast Burrito with eggs, chorizo, and cheese, couldn't resist trying the Blueberry Coffee Cake, which was amazing and went great with my Americano. The place has a really nice vibe inside. We grabbed a two-top by the window, and it was a great spot to catch up and enjoy the morning. read more

Yolklore is my favorite place for breakfast in the STL area. Their food is so delicious. Debating if you should add on some breakfast potatoes? DO IT. They taste amazing. The staff are consistently kind and quick. The service moves so quickly that the seating turns over pretty fast, so it is easy to find a place to sit and eat, even when they are super busy. Don't let the look of the outside of the building deter you: it's super cute inside and you will be SO happy you started your day by eating here, I always am! read more

Truly excellent food! They often have rotating specials so it's always fun to see what they'll have next. I went back in October and I got the Nest Egg, when they had that on their rotation, and that was delightful; the potatoes that came with it were well seasoned. My sister got a quiche and an apple dessert bar and those were equally as tasty! The staff does a wonderful job of providing a nice environment and the service is great; everyone is friendly. While seating is somewhat limited if they're busy, a spot usually opens up, but they also have a drive-thru. read more

A mediocre experience. Order at the counter, pick up and bus your own tables. Tables hadn't been wiped. My French toast was supposed to be on brioche bread. It was regular white bread. Tasted ok but so thin. Pricey for what you get and the quality of the food. read more

Great local spot! The owners are so nice! Their desserts and sweets are where the magic happens for me. I moved here 6 years ago and was introduced to gooey butter cake. A lot were so sweet! Liked them, sure. Love them, hard no. This place has the best in the STL in my opinion. Just delicious! I'm pretty sure you can order a whole pan. Be braver than me and do it. read more

I am not a fan anymore. The once legendary breakfast is no longer decent breakfast. The biscuits are as stale as last nights batch. The bacon is over cooked, like they left it on the grill all day. The eggs and potatoes have that old food smell. This is not a one time occurrence. I have consistently gotten food from them, and it has just been going down hill. My breaking point was when I asked for a simple sandwich a few weeks ago, and I only received eggs on my bacon-egg-and-cheese. With this new focus on sandwiches, I fear they've lost the plot on breakfast. Sad to see my favorite breakfast place not know how to make a biscuit sandwich. read more

Yolklore is one of my favorite spots for breakfast, it's a family favorite. Every so often they offer a special night menu. On Monday, the 26th a Brinner night was scheduled! Whoo hoo, birthday dinner! Usually a Monday birthday is a bummer since a lot of great local places are closed. Got there right at 5:00. Call in, to go, and prepaid orders seemed to be going strong. Ordered my favorite Classic breakfast, added a doughnut special, ice cream sandwich, and dog treats for my dog. I have to get my favorite Dubuque coffee, this time as a mocha. So good! Food came up quick and correct and so delicious! As we ate the restaurant continued to bustle. The kitchen was super busy. The burrito seemed to be the most popular item. Called out in the kitchen over and over again. Thanks for a great birthday dinner with my favorite meal, breakfast! read more

I love this place for its convenience and unique menu. It has a drive thru and a big take out clientele but the coffee club offers personalized mugs for regular coffee sippers. The take out choices are fabulous if you're looking for a quick grab and go brunch. I got a falafel dish while my partner ordered a quiche and both were actual taste explosions! Boasting fresh squeezed orange juice and hand crafted coffee drinks this tiny find is an indulgent option for those of us who don't have time for an elaborate breakfast. I love that they have gooey butter came to go!! Staff was friendly and informative. Expect to order at the counter and retrieve your own food when your name is called. read more

I've been visiting Yolklore a few times a year for several years and have always considered it one of my favorite local breakfast spots. The food and service used to be outstanding--well worth the slightly higher prices. During my most recent visit, though, I noticed a decline in both quality and attentiveness. I learned from the chef that the restaurant changed ownership about a year ago, which might explain some of the differences. The eggs were greasy, and the toast had a soggy texture with a flavor that reminded me of a dirty grill. The baked oatmeal still tasted familiar but wasn't served piping hot. The person who took the order seemed a bit disengaged and unfamiliar with the menu. That said, the restaurant seemed busier than I've seen it in past visits, which could be a positive sign that things are going well overall. Recent Yelp reviews also look pretty strong. This review reflects just one experience on one day, and I sincerely hope Yolklore will maintain its standards of exceptional food and service that made it such a standout. read more

We order breakfast from here regularly because of living in a household with dietary restrictions. Yolklore has always been great at meeting the requirements for lactose free. They always write on the lids to our smoothies which ones have the vegan yogurt and which ones do not. We ordered DoorDash and got four smoothies. Two of them were supposed to have yogurt. There was no writing on any of the lids so we called to ask if there's a way for us to be able to tell which ones are vegan. The employee on the phone told us that they were too busy to write on the lids right now and that's why that happened. They then told us that we didn't even order vegan yogurt in any of our smoothies. We told them it says on our receipt we did and we got charged for the vegan yogurt. They tried to maintain that we did not order vegan yogurt. We told them we did and we had the receipt. They then told us "oh yeah you did, we're gonna make two more and you can come up and get". We told them we DoorDash and didn't have a vehicle right now. After a ridiculous back-and-forth, we came up with the idea to just refund us for the smoothies and we'd place a new order regardless of how long it took. They said that would work and we placed our order for only two vegan smoothies. When they finally arrived, there was nothing that implied vegan yogurt in either of them so we called them back to double check, they were very frustrated and rude with us on the phone, even though we were not expressing any anger. They assured us it was vegan yogurt, even though it didn't say it and my wife drank one and before finishing it her stomach got wrecked painfully and she threw up because it actually did have regular yogurt and not vegan. I can't express how much we've patronize this place and how awesome it used to be but after the bad service and the attitude we got while we were not putting any out I will never go to this place again. They are not the only breakfast in town and I find this whole situation disgusting from a patrons standpoint. read more

Unfortunately, we found Yolklore to be very over-hyped. We did dine-in for breakfast on a recent Saturday morning. We ordered one mimosa, and I asked if I could get that while we waited for our food, and we were told no, it would come out with the food. 15 mins later I asked if I could please get the mimosa since the food was taking a bit, and they told me I was supposed to have gotten the mini-champagne bottle myself and have been given orange juice already, and apologized for the other staff member's confusion. We waited almost 30 mins for food (only one sandwich, one burrito, one side of potatoes - and they weren't that busy), and they never even said our name when the food was put on the counter. After a couple minutes of seeing that no one was going for the food on the counter and thinking it could be ours, we finally asked a staff member, and it was ours. I'm also not sure why places like this ask for tips when they're not providing service? You order at the counter, pick up your food when it's ready, get your own silverware, napkins and drinks, and then clean up your table when you're done. What am I tipping for? Nearly $45 after tax and tip, and we would've gotten better food and service at a McDonald's. Such a bummer. Only giving two stars because the food truly was delicious, just not at all worth the wait, the work, or the cost. read more

A friend and I met here for brunch. It was our first visit and we really enjoyed it. It's a really cute place, everyone was really friendly and the food was incredible. I got a cappuccino with oat milk and the Frittata. I will return in the future to try some of their other items. It looks like they have a coffee club, there were mugs hanging with peoples names on it. If I were closer I would consider joining! read more

Food is hot and spot on every time. I love that there is a drive thru, bonus points for me. Employees always friendly and give out dog treats to my fur babies. Inside is cute and clean. My favorite menu item is the breakfast burrito with potatoes. It comes with a delectable jalapeño ranch that is good for dipping the burrito and the potatoes. The fresh squeezed orange juice truly is fresh, I always got one. They do have gluten free and vegan options, which is nice. read more

I had read so many positive reviews of this place, and I finally took the time to try it! It is in a good location, and I love that they took advantage of the space to put in a drive-through. The drive-through was easy to access. I chose a breakfast burrito this time. The voice taking my order was pleasant and efficient. I pulled up to the window and it didn't take long for a friendly face to greet me and tell me that my order would be right up. When I got my order, it was well packed with a set of compostable plastic utensils. When I opened my package, I saw a container of herby sauce to add to my burrito. The sauce was unexpected and I could drink it from a glass, it was so good. The burrito itself was full of good ingredients. Paired with the sauce it was outstanding. I had requested some ketchup too, not knowing about the sauce that came with it. I'll happily use the ketchup somewhere else. It was a pleasant experience for my first time, and I'll go into the restaurant next time to get the full experience! read more

My husband and I dined here yesterday. It was a first time visit. Dining area not huge so we snagged a table before ordering at window. My hubby ordered classic breakfast, eggs, bacon and ginormous biscuit came with. I ordered the frittata, and we got a small piece of blueberry coffee cake. Coffee cake was good and moist but very sweet. My frittata was delicious, perfect size with local sourced mushrooms on top and some sort of sauce drizzled on top which was perfect. My husband liked his too and the biscuit was so big we brought home. Also, they have some grab n' goes at checkout . Price was right and food was good! Will definitely have a return visit! read more

What a sweet little spot! I've heard about Yolklore forever but never made my way in. I came in for lunch after several meetings and was greeted warmly by the staff. It's a quaint spot, and the register is right at the front. A lot of the options sounded delicious, but I opted for the breakfast sandwich- in which you can create your own (love a good CYO option). I got the biscuit as my base, and two proteins: egg and chorizo turkey sausage. I topped it off with cheddar and got a salad on the side. The sandwich was amazing! The biscuit wasn't dry and was super flavorful and buttery tasting. The turkey chorizo sausage was sooo good- never had it before! Spicy but a little lighter than traditional. I got an over easy egg which the yolk added a lot to the Sammie. The salad was great! It came with a lemony vinaigrette and pickled onions. I ended up working a bit while I was here, it was a comfortable environment. Definitely looking forward to coming back! read more

Just good food and service ! Folklore is easy to access both as a walking in or as drive in !! Worth your time !

Ok place for breakfast, low key, located at the end of a strip mall. Limited menu, food is ok, friendly service, plenty of indoor seating. The inside is modern and bright. Classic Breakfast $10.25 - 2 scrambled eggs, 2 bacon, 2 red roasted potatoes, a biscuit and side of gravy. I was underwhelmed, gravy seems on the healthy side and lacked flavor, bacon was thick but a bit undercooked, and eggs and potatoes were ok. Frittata $9 - Spinach, mushrooms topped with lemon herb goat cheese. Very tasty, portion on the small side. Chai 12oz - $4.25 - We order 1 hot and 1 cold and the cold one came out as iced coffee. The cashier happened to notice and proactively told me they are making a latte to fix it, but it was just a regular latte and not chai. A for effort. .|\---/| | o_o | .\_^_/..2022 read more

I've been a regular customer since it opened. Over the last couple of months the service has absolutely bottomed out. It's TERRIBLE. They close whenever they feel like it, and don't make any announcements ahead of time. They are supposed to be open until 2 pm Wed - Sun but I can't count the number of days I've been here before 2 pm and they're closed. Lots of times lately they don't even bother to work the drive thru. They just let us sit there until we drive away. Today I sat at the drive thru almost 10 minutes. Nobody waited on me. I called to see if they were open. No answer. Voice mail message hasn't been changed since Christmas a year ago. 2024. I called again. Someone answered and said they were open. I asked why nobody was working the drive thru. She said they only had one cook. This is RIDICULOUS. They lost business today because ppl in the drive thru lane got no service and drove off. FIX IT. read more
