Made by Lia was such a cute and cozy coffee shop. The whole place had a really warm vibe that i…read moreloved. I also love that i was able to actually sit back and enjoy the experience of my coffee being made. I tried the Java hazelnut coffee and it was so good. I also thought the cups were really cute with the name printed on them i thought that was a nice little detail. I'd also like to add it's not just coffee they had teas, milk lemonade, apple juice a little something for everyone. Also I love me some plants I loved how they had real plants In the shop also tiny plants on each table was sooo cute. They had a bunch of different pastries you could choose from along with merch that you could shop while waiting for your order I tried the espresso doughnut and it was good, but it was more cakey but they let me know that before I ordered. My daughter got the gooey butter cake and enjoyed it. Another part that i liked was being able to see the pastries getting made off to the side. I even connected with someone else who enjoys visiting different coffee shops, which made the experience a lot better. Overall i would 100% visit made by Made by Lia again I also was able to grab my son a gift card from them for his birthday next week I think he will love it.

So excited to be back in the area and stop by Made by Lia! Busy on a Saturday morning, but we had…read moreto be somewhere else and were taking to go. It felt cheery inside; we weren't ready and let others go in front of us so we could decide on goodies. Staff was friendly and helpful when we had decided. We got a huge blueberry lemon scone, a gooey butter cake slice, and a large chocolate chip cookie. I also got a brown sugar latte made with coconut milk, a first-time milk choice for me. I will probably go with Almond milk next time. The scone was delicious! My husband enjoyed his cookie and gooey butter cake. It will always be a stop when we are in the area.

We were in the area today with a sweet tooth & stumbled on Alleys - SO glad we did! I dug into the…read moremassive cinnamon roll before thinking to take a pic, then thought "this DEFINITELY has to go on Yelp as these are the cinnamon rolls we need to all know about"! The cinnamon rolls are massive, gooey & delightful. The staff was sweet and explained what everything was in a low pressure, friendly way. They had quite a variety of things - cookies, donuts, cupcakes, cakes, cobblers, pies etc. Very reasonably priced as well - we had 2 huge cinnamon rolls, a red velvet cupcake, 2 bags of cookies & a cup of coffee around $30! Everything was fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back, even though it's out of our way, these cinnamon rolls are worth the drive!

We chatted with the owner and she was so kind! That really added a little extra to our visit. She asked if we planned on getting a big box and we enthusiastically said yes lol It was hard to not get one of each, but we pretty much did lol -S'mores stuffed (it was heart shaped and lovely) -Chai cinnamon (great with coffee!) -Banana Puddin (not overtly banana but still good) -Funfetti (my 3 year old's favorite) -Cinnamon oatmeal (husband's favorite) -Lemon Crinkle (loved by all of us!) I can't wait to come back and get more!

Before…read moreyou even walk inside, the nostalgic neon sign reminds you that places like this are becoming harder to find. I picked up four cupcakes to bring home for my family. They disappeared so quickly that the only evidence they ever existed was four empty wrappers. That's about as strong an endorsement as you'll ever get. If you haven't stopped into Federhofer's yet, you're missing one of St. Louis' sweetest traditions.

My husband and I stopped by one morning just to check it out after looking for some items next…read moredoor. They were still putting out some bakery goods in the case, but their other sections were full. I ended up getting some random items to try, but their cherry sable cookies were amazing. I had to eventually share with my toddler and he liked them as well. They also have the trending Chewy Dubai cookies but I am not a huge huge, pistachio lover so I skipped that. But the sable cookies - amazing!

There is a parking lot on the side of the building, and on the street as well. Once you enter the inside, the smell of fresh baked goods hit you in the nose. They have a display case with all of the bakery items they have for sell. You can look straight ahead and see the kitchen area and staff making fresh goods. Staff were friendly and attentive, and made recommendations on items to try. I ordered an iced vanilla latte, a butter pecan cookie and a vanilla butter pecan cupcake. The vanilla latte was smooth, creamy and not too sweet. Their syrups are house made. The butter pecan cookie tasted exactly like butter pecan ice cream. It was soft and chewy, with a hint of salt on top to taste, and had a pecan placed on top. That was probably one of the best butter pecan cookies I've ever had. (Perfect cookie for the fall)

Greeted when you walk in, there is an order pick up section on the right. The case up front holds all the goodies! I was bummed they were out of sprankle cookies, but I snagged a double vanilla cupcake and a piece of focaccia bread. They also had funfetti and chocolate chip cupcakes, both a sweet and savory scone option, the famous brookie, a longtime favorite oatmeal cream pie and lots of other sweet items. They have lots of drink options, too. Super friendly staff and such a bright and airy space.

So huge that I, a lover of all desserts and especially fritters, could not even finish half of it in one sitting. I've had probably 20 different Apple fritters in St. Louis. This is it.

When you try to explain where the second location of the Donut Palace is, it is a little difficult…read more There is a sign on the front but the entrance is in the back. One side is Jimmy John's. With the back being Donut Palace. The parking lot is large. The windows were tinted with two doors that had open signs, we weren't sure which one to go in and chose the one on the left. It could get really awkward with two customers walking in from each door at the same time. The left side door felt a little further away from the counter. Inside was super clean and had a cute area for eating in. New location growing pains with the staff not knowing what some of the donuts were. Seemed like the operation was the people behind the counter helped and then a guy at the register rang up. It was fine but felt lackluster. After we made our selection of a dozen with one of those being the massive Apple fritter. The total for the dozen was $28 and seemed excessive even with the massive fritter. When we ate them they were ok. They were a good size but just weren't my cup of tea in taste or price.

I went with the Mini's which were still $28/12. I tried the Chocolate Chip and Banana. No flavor n the Banana but it was moist but the Chocolate Chip was hard... like it was a day old. And no flavor . I hate doing reviews like this but right now I am not a Fan of Crumbl... Sorry
