Not only do they have a great wine selection, but they also play Disney musicals all night long. The Sound of Music, Aladdin...all of your favorite classics.

I have been wanting to visit Protagonist for quite some time now. We always pass by it and have…read morevisited their sister cafe (Antagonist) several times. We had a wonderful visit! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the baristas. I received a compliment on the shirt I was wearing and then we placed our order. He immediately asked if Kylie would like a pup cup which she happily accepted. The layout of the space reminds me of an online library - rows of books, couches, board games, etc. they even had a kids library area which was so cute! Their menu offers more than just coffee too, which was awesome! They also have specialty lattes available. Kylie made herself at home and got tons of attention from all the sweet customers. Can't wait to go back!

Strange experience for a bakery. Got there at 11 and nothing was out of the ovens. Was told some…read moreitems hadn't gotten in yet. These are the things I ordered Portuguese egg tart- this was good. The custard was well set and the bake was perfect Mango panna cotta - panna cotta was solid, the mango tasted canned Umami Sour dough - small loaf which on their board was labeled at $6.50 but was actually 8.50. Unfortunately they pulled it out so the oven too soon so was underbaked. Had to toast it after cutting to cook it more which is disappointing for a bakery. I am hoping perhaps this was an off day for them.

After visiting the Farmers Market, I needed more coffee, so I stopped in at Piper's Tea and Coffee…read more I have been a couple of times before, but it isn't near my home area so haven't been often. It is a really cute space with lots of different types of seating. I really enjoy some of the local art they display. Service was friendly, upbeat and with a smile and conversation. I got a Mocha with oat milk, and it came up quickly. I sat for a bit and sipped the mocha; it was really good - lots of chocolate and coffee flavor! They had a pop-up smoothie bowl going on, I had eaten a few things at the market so didn't have room but it looked great!

Ive driven past this place numerous times and a friend finally asked me to try it…read more Parking is limited. Since it was lunch on a weekday, I got a spot but im sure some have had to park on street and walk. There's indoor and outdoor seating. We chose indoor to be in AC however it was not cold in there. There were flies flying around and it was humid. I ordered a chicken panini that came with fries. All good. Menu is big with lots of options. Waiter was nonexistent yet the place was not packed. He did show up quickly to make us pay.

I had a Cinna-Maple Latte because it's my absolute favorite kind of coffee to have and it was really good for a cold February night in St. Louis. I love that the owner/barista did not make assumptions on what kind of milk I wanted, he actually asked me what kind of milk did I want in my latte. That was greatly appreciated and my stomach thanks you! I will return!

The concept of this coffee shop/bookstore is excellent, and the coffee that I ordered last night…read morewas solid and delicious. I came here last night looking for a coffee shop late last night for my iced caramel latte. This place has been on my list of places to visit in STL, and I finally did it last night. My visit for an iced caramel latte turned into a delightful surprise. It was a quick in and out, but I stayed longer than planned. The shop was hosting a music open night, and I enjoyed a live performance until closing time. I shall visit again during the day, check out their book selection, and stay in to enjoy my cuppa.

I've had this spot on my list for awhile, so when my husband wanted to do a coffee date, I thought…read moreit was the perfect time to try it! We have so many good coffee spots in the city and this one seemed so interesting to me! Parking was easy, we walked up and only had to wait a few minutes in line. The menu is awesome, and honestly, their food options are priced really fair. Coffee does seem on the expensive side (two lattes for ~$20) BUT it is speciality coffee afterall. You can also see where they're roasting it, so you know it's fresh. I got the s'mores latte and my husband got a dirty chai. They obsviously use super high quality ingredients AND make syrups in house. Very unique, fresh flavors in both mine and my husbands latte. And both were SO GOOD. Espresso was pulled perfect and had great taste. Their patio is awesome, they have a little indoor space in their greenhouse as well, but we opted for outside since it was a nice morning. It's a beautiful property, and if I ever need a place to sit and work, this would be it. If we lived walking distance, this spot would be dangerous. Definitely one of the more fresh, tastier coffee spots in the city!

The adjoining cafe, Antagonist, even has jail cells that currently function as booths to sit at, making it one of my favorite places to go to. Not only does Pieces have a fun and cozy atmosphere, the drinks and food there are just as great! Lots of their cocktails are inspired by video games, which I can appreciate! Overall, it's definitely a place I'd go to again on a date or with a big group of friends!

wow, i was really impressed when i came here…read more this place has multiple aspects to it, but the main appeal is the multitude of board games that they have to offer here. the main way it works is that you come in, you tell them how big your party is, and then you can go right ahead and start playing board games. you're allowed to take something like 5-6 at a time, but basically there is an unlimited number of games here that you have access to. they have pretty much all the popular stuff, like catan and exploding kittens, but a lot of other things too which vary in terms of difficulty and other factors while you're sitting at your table, they can also bring you drinks and food, which all looks pretty good even though all i got was a mimosa, which was great and only $6. alternatively, i also saw some people here getting brunch without playing any board games. apparently they have bottomless mimosas here and while i can't remember the price, i recall it being a really good deal lastly, they have a cafe in here where i saw lots of people sitting doing work on laptops. so, they really have everything here

I went up to the counter, and within two minutes, my order was taken. I chose a French vanilla iced latte and a hazelnut croissant, as recommended. The cozy seating was clean, well-organized sofas with straight pillows. The tables I passed by were spotless and neatly arranged. They even have a small kids' table with coloring pages and crayons, making it a great spot for a relaxing break. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and highly recommend this Cafe.

Croutons are especially standout, chewy and delicious. But note the menu is limited so don't expect food other than pastries and salad.

Food and drink are fine, often good. Patio is lovely. Unfortunately, an outdoor, motion-activated…read morecamera at this business flashes lights at a high frequency in alternating colors without any warning. This caused me to have an absence seizure and subsequent migraine. Edit: Hi Darcy, I am aware of the need for exterior cameras in any place of business. I do believe you will see that I was clearly on the sidewalk, not on cafe property, when your camera began flashing. There was no audio warning, I rounded the corner and the flashing lights started. To reiterate, because you seem to have not actually read my review before assuming my complaint: there was NO audio warning before the camera began strobing. I am not exaggerating when I say this camera caused me to have a medical event. Please consider motion-activated flood lights and an exterior camera that does not flash a light to secure your building. Your security theatre causes safety problems for those of us just trying to go for a walk in the neighborhood after work. Also, to keep this review fair and balanced, I have had your coffee and it is quite good. I am just as upset to have had this experience as you apparently are to receive this feedback. Personally, if I was informed that I caused this issue for someone, I would demonstrate a bit of concern for their wellbeing. Again, I understand the need for cameras. This is not a review complaining that you have cameras. This is a review to let you know that the specific camera you use is hazardous to people with disabilities, in hopes that you may find the empathy to adjust your CCTV setup. Thanks for responding and please reconsider your specific camera system. In the meantime, I will be sure to direct my photosensitive friends away from The Fiddlehead Fern.
