“ Such a great family owned coffee shop! Very warm and welcoming staff and the coffee is delicious! With so many unique flavor combinations. The hot sandwich was delectable as well. And all the ice cream is non-dairy and fruit based and absolutely delicious! A definite must stop in downtown St. Louis! ”
“ Stopped through St. Louis on a road trip and knew I wanted to go to a local spot. The owner (I believe?) said she hand makes all of the ice cream flavors herself! She was so kind and recommended an affogato with caramel apple ice cream- it was phenomenal!! Safe to say, I will be craving this for a while. ”
“ The food and coffee here are excellent. But that is not what makes this a top notch 5 star location. It’s the customer service and genuine interactions paired with the tasty goodness that completes this 5 star experience. I was able to sit for a while and watch many regular customers come and go. It was clear that the owner knows a little bit about each person, and even a great many by name. I came back for a second time and they remembered exactly what I had ordered the day before. If I was local I’d be here daily. The ice cream is made in house. If you love strawberry, get two scoops! ”
“ Please know, I am not a local to St Louis. I am glad I parked across the street and picked up something cool to drink. I was tired, hot and maybe a little crabby. The lady that helped me was so perky and friendly, I had to say something positive. She helped to lift my spirits. I hadn't even bought anything yet, and a personality like hers, I doubt would have cared. That shop deserves better than this review. I challenge anyone researching reviews before making a decision to just go on in and see what may trip your interest. Now, I'm feeling like such a clod. I don't even remember the name of the coffee drink I ordered. It was an item I didn't realize I needed so badly then. Ever had a rotten day, you couldn't conceive would improve, then it does? Happy, bouncy and good people can help. And that's exactly what happened. The smells were wonderful. My "Item Ordered" was quick and enjoyed more than I expected. ”
“ Definitely did not have the highest hopes coming into this place but Dahm was I wrong, I would put this place back on the bucket list if I ever visited again, the person working was so delightful and greeted me right as I entered. In the morning I got a breakfast sandwich which was actually unbelievable good, just so warming and delicious, then I went back later in the day and got açaí, OMG it was unreal good so delicious, a little steep in price but where else are you gonna get açaí that good. ”
