I always order carne asada street tacos. Comes with red/green salsa, not too spicy on the side. You can add onions and cilantro, not overwhelming. I'm Mexican so that says alot. Been going here for 2 decades. Street taco prices!! When you are inside, you feel like being in Mexico Overall a WONDERFUL experience to add to your life ... (that's a DNA symbol, because the experience will ADD TO YOUR LIFE)

Try a torta and a taco, pick your protein, and a sugar-cane Coke in a bottle! Add a little green sauce and WHAMO! The best lunch in St Charles! The family that runs it is extremely friendly, and they are always prepared to graciously accommodate us english-only speakers. This is NOT full service dining - you need to bus your own table and grab your own drinks. Not doing so is considered impolite. They bring your food out to you. Please keep this in mind when visiting.

I have always loved coming to this grocery store. It always gives me small town vibes. They always…read morehave good sales,great hot food and even better patties, and cakes. They are always well stocked. Staff is always friendly. They do a bankroll lottery where you can win money. It's free to enter and he jackpot increases if someone doesn't win.

I live super close to Midtowne so this is always a good place to stop when I need groceries…read more The bakery section always smells so good and every pastry or donut I have gotten is amazing! Midtowne does not have the largest produce section but the meat section definitely makes up for this. My husband and I will typically get most of our meats at Midtowne because they have a good selection and they have great prices! The store is always clean and organized and the staff are very friendly and helpful when I need it. Midtowne also has good hours and are open 6-10 daily. This is a great neighborhood grocery store!

This is such a cute store to visit when you are looking for either yourself or to give as gifts. I…read morelove their sauces, coffees, teas, soups, etc. You can visit here and put a cute little gift basket together for a friend and fill it with so many things. Or, you can just pick out a bunch of fun items that you want to enjoy (which is what I did)! I think the store itself is super charming, but when it is super busy, it can be stressful to navigate as the aisles are not wide enough and if there are too many people inside, it can get challenging to walk around. Just be patient and don't be afraid to look at everything on the shelves to see what kinds of fun items you may want to try. They have loose leaf tea behind the counter for you to purchase too if you want to try something new and different or you can get some pre-packaged tea (so many flavors to choose from)! I can't visit here and not walk away with some bourbon glaze sauce and/or some tea and this time I even purchased some mulling spice for the holidays.

Bro - what are we doing here??? Getting real damn good sandwiches…read more Okay - initially I was wanting to buy a whole chicken and this place came up as a local butcher. They definitely had whole chickens, wings, and quarters but also so many cuts of beef, sausages, and so much more. It's a really nice Italian market inside with produce and dry goods available as well. I got my whole chicken, we ordered also two sandwiches, got a loaf of bread, and went home happy. We absolutely will be back! Also: you can get your own fresh squeezed OJ here and that's great!

I've always wanted to go into The English Shop but I've never been to Main Street during their…read morebusiness hours. I finally made it on a recent Thursday afternoon. It's kind of odd merchandise to be selling on St. Charles Main Street but I like it. They have a small selection of English teas, candies, and other nonperishable groceries. I went for the candy, obviously. Smarties, Cadbury, and a Twirl caught my eye. I spent a summer in Oxford when I was young and grew very fond of these candies. You can get them other places but nowhere that I know of in St. Charles. I'll be back next time I'm on Main Street!

I spent some time in London a few years ago and was happy to find some of the teas and crisps I liked when I was there. If you collect tea cups, hold on to your wallet because you can really stock up here (for a price). The parking is in street and it often is in short supply, but...you will want to stroll up and down the street to see all the great shops, restaurants, and coffee places...do no big deal.

I used them for my wedding after discovering them at the Off White Wedding show and have been a customer since. They have tons of fun and unique flavors in addition to the traditional favorites.

I've explored a few different charcuterie businesses across St. Louis, and this was one of my favorites. I received it as a surprise, but I liked it so much it was like I picked it out myself. The presentation was wonderful, and packing it all into a pretty box made it easy to transport (you know, during the long journey from the kitchen to in front of the fireplace.) I was so blown away at the selections. There was SO MUCH CHEESE, so many varieties of meats, and lots of chocolate, meringues, crackers, olives, honey, and more. It was seriously such a fun charcuterie box and was extremely well-curated. You can order online and they also have the coolest "charcuterie cones" for just $10 that would make really great gifts. The have a lot of different box sizes to satisfy price points. They do offer delivery, but I believe you can pick up a box if you fall outside of the delivery area. I am a huge fan and will be placing an order for a date night soon!
