They have experts on everything you could ever need - wine, cured meats, preserves, pasta, and more!!! They have everything. Like I walked in asking about Gjetost (a Norwegian cheese) and they had it. They also have an incredible cheese monger by the way who I didn't get his name but he was really kind and knowledgeable. Cute decor too, very kind of rustic and homey. Reminded me of my time in Italy. Oh and they make fresh bread!!!! I've been looking for a cute little market like this so I can shop local and this place is just fantastic. Had a pretty incredible turkey sandwich too - I added speck to mine! Sandwiches all come with chips + a soda too.

Everyone is so friendly, from other shoppers to the staff who checks in to see if you need anything. I was looking for Tuna, but when I saw the selection, I couldn't remember which type I needed so that just means I will have to go back! I bought a large jar of capers because I can never have enough of them and I happened upon a frozen Seafood Mix Mediterranean PanaPesca. This looks really good and I think it is for a pasta dish, I will try it and see. I wish I had known when we were there that we were going to have winter weather this weekend! I would have purchased a lot more and if you need to know this, they have fresh yeast cakes. I would have purchased it to make St. Louis school cafeteria rolls.

For the box - wow, we get an awesome selection of produce and other goods and for the quality, it's totally worth it. We've loved having the challenge of some unique items we would never buy otherwise too. It's been such a cool addition to our grocery items. The store itself is very cute, I'm from the Bay Area and it reminds me of a cool little Berkeley bodega. We loved the herb/veggie plants this spring, love the fresh, local produce (great mushrooms!!!), and local milk! They have such cool, unique ingredients and have really leveled up our cooking. We love buying local, and love that they also support all local vendors. Such a fantastic business.

I absolutely loved this coffee shop! The inside was so cool and had such a fun atmosphere, with…read moreplenty of unique things to shop around for, delicious bakery items, and of course, amazing coffee. The coffee was seriously so good! The outdoor patio was even better--it was such a nice space to sit outside under the covered area and enjoy the breeze from the fans. There's also an option to sit in the sun if you prefer. It's a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. Such a great environment and overall vibe! I'll definitely be back to try more of their food and bakery items.

I went to school out in the sticks, so I'm always worried when I visit one of these local-looking…read morecoffee shops that there might be vaguely religious undertones, along with a meeting on Tuesday nights where men gather to share their thoughts on disturbing cultural developments, hug and cry a little bit. I'd attend such a meeting, but more so for the lulz (but also to share my beliefs). I'm pleased to report that there's none of that going on here, that I'm aware of. Granted, this was a Sunday morning. I was there with my running group as part of our ongoing unofficial breakfast burrito tour, the last such stop until this fall, due to upcoming marathon training. Of course it was the most unpleasant day of the year, maybe ever, with a heat index of 117 (no hyperbole). I changed shirts before I came in and then sweated through that shirt as well. One of the ladies I was with left a gross pool of sweat in her chair after she left. It didn't occur to me to pull a Charlamagne tha God until hours later. I'm growing as a human being. Part of that growth is gradually coming to realize that seasonal lattes, unless they have sort of especially distinct flavor, like banana, aren't going to taste like anything other generic artificial sweetener, let alone what they purport to be. I considered ordering an iced caramel latte, but I figured what the heck. I went with something called a Miso Brown Sugar Latte. It was good for what it was, but I don't know that anyone, if you gave it to them to try, could identify it as that. I liked the fact that it had a somewhat more pronounced coffee flavor, compared to some places where it mostly just tastes like a glass of milk. I wasn't as crazy about the fact that it took a while for the ice cubes to cool it down, probably longer than it would have taken if it were served in a glass cup. I went with something called the Annex Burrito, which I didn't realize until after I ordered it is not the only burrito they carry. I guess you can also get a bog-standard breakfast burrito with bacon, eggs and cheese. This one comes with corn, beans and some sort of unidentified crema for the same amount. Maybe they give you less bacon. Mine didn't have a lot of bacon, but the bacon it did have was not crisp and had a precooked vibe. The latter was more of an issue for me than the former. I'm a savage in that way. I did appreciate the fact that it was griddled, possibly using a panini press. The exterior was ever so slightly crisp, while the interior was pizza roll-level molten. The overall vibe was similar to those microwave burritos they used to carry at 7-11, but in a good way. All I needed was a mini truck enthusiast magazine filled with photos of bikini-clad Latinas and a Windex-blue Slurpee, but I was able to make do with a lukewarm mystery latte and the old ladies I run with. I'm resourceful.

Order at the counter weather you are getting butcher items or ordering food from the menu. Don't forget to look in the cold cases for any number of items from eggs, bone broth, their delicious frozen biscuits, and many other items. Lots to choose from. I don't usually stray from my usual order of seasonal hash but I was eyeing a couple of new items I hadn't seen on the brunch menu before. A breakfast sandwich and hash browns. I was going back and forth and one of the employees encouraged me to go with something different. I asked if I could get it on a biscuit and would be sold. They checked and said yes, I was excited because I LOVE the biscuit. I decided to try the hash browns, too. You take a number and pick your seat, counter with stools line the windows to the outside as well as section that looks into the butcher cutting area. Food came out quickly and was thrilled at the hash browns, they looked so good. Shredded potatoes fried crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside - very good and I would definitely order them again. I am usually very picky about cheese, but I love pimento and the biscuit sandwich was amazing. So it came out as a split biscuit with the house ham and pimento spread, pepper jelly, arugula, heirloom tomato, and a fried egg. I cut the egg in half so I could take half home but it turned out to be nonsense as I couldn't stop eating the sandwich and finished the whole thing! Now I will have a hard decision next time I stop in! Staff is always great, super friendly, and always helpful answering any questions. Food is amazing!

Just go by direct from the farmers, the markup isn't worth it here anymore. As others have…read morementioned, they do over salt their prepared food fairly often but that's just the chef's palate. Everything's high-quality and poor value after accounting for the price. I stopped in to pick up a pork loin because I was around the corner, looking for ~3-4lbs of meat. They only had a 1 1/2 pound in the case (order taker weighed it to confirm before going to the back, which should've been my first warning) so I asked if they had any larger ones. They were nice enough to check and offer to cut one. That's where things went downhill. After waiting 5 or 10 minutes, my order taker came back out to ask how I wanted it prepped (bone or boneless, skin on or off). I said skin off and ambivalent on the bones. This was my mistake, leaving my fate to the hands of someone profit motivated. I walked out with just about a 3 pound bone in roast, which is maybe half a pound more meat than the one and a half pound I turned down - not enough for my guests and I. Had I gotten a roast closer to 4lbs, I would've been unhappy with the price but not enough to write a review. Additionally, they only charged a dollar less for bone in. At $15/lb, I effectively paid the price of their beef for the meat after accounting for the bone. I felt tricked. In hindsight, I should've just turned it down when I saw the price, but I was a bit too shocked to say anything. So I paid my bill and swore that I wouldn't be coming back for anything but (maybe) sausage or a snack again.

I'm a fan of pickles. Sweet, dill, bread and butter...gerkins, spears or sliced or doesn't matter…read more So when I heard there was a "pickle store" opening in my neighborhood I had to try it out. When you walk into 6427 S Hampton you can see that they have some great ideas. The place has green accents and even Aliska had green glasses and socks with pickles. She means business. I tried Ms. Brilliant Black Garlic (this would be great as a marinade on fish), Ms. Bodacious Black Cherry (in a little vodka? Yes please) and Ms. Hilarious Hickory Sweet Hot Bacon (cupcake...yup) but there are 31 more for me to try. I ended up buying 2 relishes Ms. Intelligent Sweet Spicy Dill Garlic (it kicked up my tuna salad) and Ms. Fearless Fireball Whiskey (good by itself... it's not alcoholly (new word)). These are sold at Soulard Market already but with a storefront Aliska is going to start incorporating her pickles and relish into various foods like meatloaf, quiches and even cupcakes. (She had a sample and it was moist and never would you have thought that pickles were in it. I'm giving her a 4 because I'm waiting for her to roll out her breakfast and then I'll go back and update.

I found G&W through Yelp and scheduled a pick up for a Biergarten Box (8-10 people) and a Backyard Box (4-6). Picking up was a breeze, I just showed up at the scheduled time and they had most of the meat ready. It ended up being a lot of brats, some franks, and some dried beef sticks. I will note this is a lot of sausages and no burgers, so we picked some of those up elsewhere. I also got a jar of mustard which turned out amazing. And yes, my wife and I were offered a couple beers when we walked in. Since we were driving back to our AirBNB right away, we saved them to boil the meat in. And wow, these were some excellent sausages. Super juicy and flavorful, and while I think there was some hesitation on the brats they were hits. The kids had no idea they were eating natural franks (which were gigantic) and they ate them up as well. The value was excellent too. By ordering online it knocked off 15%, so I paid around $90 to feed 5 families dinner and lunch the next day, and still took some leftover meat home. Highly recommend for anyone doing a bbq in the STL!

Unfortunately the drink I wanted to try was the tahini date steamer but it wasn't available today as they were out of dates. I chose the herbal hibiscus elixir iced. It tastes like you are drinking a flower because you are, and it's full of antioxidants. The market has a lot of "foodie" finds like wine, special sauces, specialty cheese, smoked fish and house-made Mediterranean spreads. I'm interested in trying the canned cocktails. They are 24% ABV and cost $7. I will be back!
