Young lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful in picking flavors. Store is clean and bright. Smells wonderful! Was disappointed that not all of the flavors are available all the time, was there almost an hour ahead of one being available to sell, boo... Also wished that they would have asked about slicing the bagels for us, would have been very helpful. Still the best bagels in town!

I found some spicy truffle chips I hadn't tried before. Ordered my usual, the hot pastrami on rye with deli mustard. Yum! The wait is never very long with 3 people or 20 people in line; they have lots of people behind the counter. Once your order is ready, you step to the register to pay and you on your way.

After we ordered coffee, they looked at us and told us it would be 5-10 minutes. They had no milk and were out of creamer. Again, authentic to the community - you should order black coffee here & not past 8:30z As we sat & I realized, I leaned in and said, did you realize it's almost 11:00? Honestly, neither of us realized until after we sat down that the breakfast rush was long over and they were essentially brewing a pot just for us. They were very nice & accommodated but, boy did I feel bad once it dawned on me. Enjoyed both our bagel & knish.

This is the cutest bakery!…read more This place kept coming up on my feed, so I conveniently went to the area to check it out. It's located on the corner of a strip mall and is close to Vangel's (which is next on my list. I walked inside and was greeted warmly by the attendant behind the counter. They have a large selection of different breads and pastries all baked fresh daily. I don't eat bread as much as I used to and although I wanted to try some sourdough, I chose not to. Also, I'm unsure whether you have to buy the bread as is or if they'll cut you a slice. It's def a good question for next time. I knew I couldn't leave without trying something, so I went with the classic chocolate chip cookie. It only set me back about $3.00 and some change, which I think is fair considering how large it is. The cookie was soft, had a good amount of chocolate chips throughout the cookie, and wasn't overly sweet like I'm accustomed to tasting. I enjoyed my visit to Breadsmith and am eagerly waiting to return!

There was a line upon walking up. It wss steadily moving. Not much h room once you get to the counter. I ordered what they posted about. The peach cobbler Iced. I originally tried to order it hot, but they recommended for the full effect to have it iced. Only set back was I got my food first and then found out someone claimed my drink by accident. They were chill.about it and were able to.remake it. I wanted to sit out back but it wss a little drizzly, so I opted for inside. They were definitely hustling but they kept that line going The coffee was good. The sourdough pesto toast wasnt too bad. It filled me up. I loved the vibes of the house and garden together. Glad i got to experience this spot. Located in the neighborhood of Webster groves. They have a lot off to the back side or there is street parking. I am surprised they didn't have water available near where you grab your utensils or near the extra room trays off to the right of the restrooms.

Intimate cafe right on The Loop!…read more There are two floors with various seating. Order your selections (breakfast and lunch fare) at the counter, receive a table letter, and they bring it to you. My cucumber/hummus/veg sandwich was supreme! That bread is extra special. Excellent, fruity espresso! Timely service and helpful staff. Many university students study here; it's definitely got that vibe. And I appreciate wanting an entire 4-seat table to yourself because it's nice to spread out. However, please note it's possible other patrons in a group may want to sit together, and space on this earthly world -- and also at Meshuggah's -- is limited. Definitely will return -- lots of menu items I need to try!

The coffee shop is on the right and you enter there and get in line for the counter ordering. There is a case with treats to tempt you right there and a stack of menu's to peruse. Ordering is easy and the cashier was friendly. I decided on a salted coconut latte, on their seasonal items board. I had decided on Avocado toast, it tempted me most as it was served on Union Loafers bread, who can resist that? Not me. I was given a number and chose to sit at the counter, lots of tables and counter space and additional room up the stairs. When my name was called for my latte, I was excited! It was beautiful! I really enjoyed the flavor, not too sweet and just the right amount of coconut. A server brought my avocado toast. It was also beautiful. All you need is positioned at the end of the counter, utensils, napkins, go boxes, hot sauce, etc. I liked the presentation but immediately spread the microgreens over the whole toast, moved the egg to the center and cut the toast in half forgetting to take a picture! Darn, camera always eats first but I totally forgot. I enjoyed the toast and would order it again. Good food, friendly staff!

These little pastries are so well made and the menu options are impressive. My favorite is the sausage and gravy. However everything on the menu is good. There's something about the softness of the dough and its flavor combined with the various fillings that really satisfies the palate. I've ordered these for events at work and have also ordered a few to have at home. So good and unique. Always a hit!

Stopped by Kolache Factory and tried two egg & cheese kolaches and a chocolate muffin…read more Everything was really good--the kolaches were filling, soft, and paired perfectly with the picante sauce on top. Super satisfying and not too heavy. I also reheated them in the microwave later and they held up really well, which I appreciated. Also, the woman at the counter called me "love," which was such a small but sweet touch and made the experience feel really welcoming. Overall, a solid spot for a quick, tasty breakfast. I'll definitely be back to try more options.

I was surprised to see two pieces of toast when I opened my box, but I wasn't complaining. My first bite was ok, but I was a bit grossed out at how much spread was on the bread. They didn't skimp on the avocado spread, but it was way too much and practically layered. Although the bread was soft, all the spread made it soggy and weighed down. My cookie was ok but nothing to write home about. Although I didn't care for the toast, I have no doubt I'll find something I like on my next visit.

Everything was delicious. The cookies and cream was a chocolate chip cookies with Oreos and it was probably the best chocolate chip cookies I've had in a long time.
