I am not from Springfield, nor am I from Missouri. I was just visiting someone on a whim. It had…read morebeen over 20 years since I had seen them. Also, it had been over 24 hours since I had a hot chocolate and slept. My travel experience had been less than good, to say the least. I walked up, stumbling, and the pair of attendants greeted me, immediately saw that something was wrong and gave me a hot chocolate. They said no charge. I said no way, I asked if they could break a twenty because I needed change. I tipped them a ten-dollar bill. Thanked them and walked away smiling. They were so nice and made my day, somehow making my interaction with the TSA and airport police fade away slightly, somehow. The counter was clean and well placed. The music was calming, and both attendants were nice and friendly. I say come and have some.

It's a great place to study, if you don't need silence, or to hang out with friends. I enjoy the dim lighting and background music that seems to be a hallmark of this location. The baristas do a great job and are fast. This last time I stopped by I tried a s'mores inspired latte and overall I thought it was great. The marshmallow flavored cold foam wasn't quite what I was expecting, but after mixing it all up a bit it was very good.

El Cafecito - The Little Coffee Shop completely exceeded expectations…read more The coffee was phenomenal, the food was excellent, and the people were genuinely warm and welcoming. What really stands out, though, is the space -- it's small, but incredibly well thought out. You can tell a lot of care and intention went into every detail, and it creates an atmosphere that feels both personal and elevated. It honestly feels like the kind of place a professional designer would put together, but in a way that still feels authentic and lived-in. Everything flows -- the branding, the layout, the vibe -- it just works. There are a couple small quirks (like grabbing your own silverware even though food is brought to the table), but nothing that takes away from the experience -- and once you know, it's no big deal. Between the coffee, the food, the people, and the overall feel, this place is a standout. Easily one of my favorites.

My wife and I were visiting the area and happened to stumble across this charming spot, and we're so glad we did. They offer a wide variety of European pastries, croissant sandwiches, and other bakery favorites. The standout for us was the brioche donut -- the filling was easily one of the best we've had, both in flavor and generosity. Every bite was packed perfectly. We also tried the breakfast croissant, which was delicious, but the white cheddar truly took it to another level. We noticed they also host cooking classes, which looked like such a fun experience. If we lived nearby, this would absolutely become a regular date night spot or a great activity with friends. Definitely a memorable find while traveling.

The food tasted like it was made from processed ingredients. We ordered the 3-car pile-up, which looked like a plate of food scraps from other unfinished meals.

It was a sad sight: cut-up pancakes, hash browns, potatoes, sausage, bacon, all smothered in biscuits and gravy. If you're looking for a home-cooked meal, don't waste your time here.
