Three of us were shopping mid-morning and asked each vendor for a good place for breakfast. All recommended a well-known place. Unfortunately, we'd eaten there previously on this trip and wanted something different and better. The nice lady at Xxxxx recommended Calypso. She was sooo excited describing their delicious crepes. Well we found our way to Diamond Dire t and run to Calypso. I had a veggie omelette with whole wheat toast. The veggies were fresh and the omelette quite tasty. My brother (a carnivore) had some scrambled eggs with bacon on the side. When the plate arrived, the aroma of the perfectly cooked bacon brought an approving smile to everyone's face. My nephew had an "Indian" omelette (with ham and veggies). Quite delicious. He also had a freshly made fruit smoothy. I sampled 2 of the coffees, and liked them both. I settled for the strong one with a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream. Scrumptious!! The hostess and the chef were so sweet, attentive and friendly. Made us feel like "regulars". I will definitely be returning to Calypso on my next trip to St. Thomas! "D & M" at Calypso: Thank you for a "delicious and nutritious" breakfast. But more so for a real, personal, warm experience.

We didn't get the same positive vibes as other fellow Yelpers. Sorry to say…read more To start, it's a confusing layout in a historical building. You walk through a jewelry store to get to a small restaurant that combines Virgin Islands Ice Cream shop with Calypso Cafe. Most of the seats were taken, and all we saw was a line to place your order at the front. My husband waited in line while I found a table that hadn't been cleaned yet. It was very busy there. He ordered us 2 brownies and 2 bottles of water for $16. The lady at the counter gave herself a tip by taking $3 of the change and giving him back $1. He was going to give her all the change ($4) back, but after that incident he was floored. To add insult to injury, she didn't give us what we paid for. She proceeded to help the next person in line for an ice cream shake order. We waited and waited and no one acknowledged us after trying to flag someone down. We finally got the attention of a different lady who was helping people who were seated in the back. I think her name is Cameron. She didn't fully understand our frustration, and we had to explain that we didn't get the items that we had already paid for. She made it all right, and even offered to warm up the brownies. We just didn't feel like waiting longer for it. I'm giving benefit of the doubt here since maybe we just didn't understand the ordering system. Maybe there's a service charge that we didn't know about. How could we? We didn't even get a receipt. Perhaps there's another line for Calypso Cafe? I don't know. Honestly, the lady at the counter should have informed Cameron before proceeding on to the next customer. It only takes 2 seconds. I mean, really! Will we go back? Absolutely not! We'll go somewhere else the next time we're in Charlotte Amalie. It wasn't worth the long wait for 2 bakery items and water.

Was going to order a lot of food but cut it down to half since I had to ask for the password 3 times and she didn't want to give it to me until I ordered! When she asked for our order and after asking for the 2nd time, she looked at me and said she has to go make coffee instead while huffing and puffing. Neglected me again to give me the wifi password until the 3rd time and gave it easily when she was about to take the order... What was sooooo F'n HARD about giving me the easy wifi password!?! WTF! I obviously wanted to check in and needed it even more to write this review right away on her horrendous behavior! She mentioned she didn't even know what day it was and that she was making a lot of mistakes already... No sh*t, you made the mistake to neglect giving me the easy a** password! The younger guy in the Nintendo hat was friendly and greeted us immediately. The ambience was what drew me in to this place too bad the old lady's attitude sucked A*S! Not giving you business again after this day. Unfortunately this is one of the only places for coffee on a weekend day around this area You're welcome for the extra business bc we did end up getting a second round of coffees bc it was decent enough to drink more and the bagel was flattened and easier to eat so that was appreciated. Too bad she couldn't have been right in the mind and just gave me the F'n wifi password when asked the 1st time! To the Rude Barista - Fix your stank A** attitude or take the day off since working on a Saturday is totally throwning you off!

If not, look up the location here and you'll get there! Super nice owner/operator, originally from the States, but in St. Thomas for years. The lattes were perfect, espresso to milk ratio, and piping hot. We also had the cubano panini, which was da bomb! As an after thought, we picked up a pistachio muffin, which was also very good as well. I'm not one to regularly give coffee shops 5-star ratings, but Parley Cafe deserves it! Highly recommend Parley Cafe for coffee, sandwiches and snacks!
