Tucked inside the 21c Museum Hotel, Good Press is one of those spots that quietly overdelivers…read more From the moment you walk in, the eclectic decor sets the tone--creative, and a little unexpected. It feels less like a typical coffee stop and more like part of the overall hotel experience. What really stands out is the attention to detail. The syrups are made in-house, and you can taste the difference--nothing overly sweet or artificial, just well-balanced flavors that elevate the drinks. The menu is impressively versatile too, with plenty of options whether you're in the mood for coffee, tea, or something more substantial. Speaking of which, the veggie flatbread was a highlight. Fresh, and thoughtfully put together with seasonal vegetables and a delicious goat cheese that tied everything together without overpowering it. Add in genuinely great customer service, and you've got a spot that's worth lingering in, not just grabbing and going. If you're visiting 21c (or even if you're not), Good Press is absolutely worth a stop.

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!

I love supporting local businesses that share my values. I was admiring some of the stickers for sale at the front counter, and I was told that the owner makes them. There were some fun designs. The staff here was outstanding. 5/5 stars for customer service. I had misplaced my credit card and they reminded me I could do tap to pay from my IPhone. Problem solved. On this visit, I only ordered a cold brew coffee and it was a smooth, mellow blend. It was perfect. They made it exactly the way I ordered it. There is street parking out front and in the surrounding area. This is the perfect coffee shop to gather with friends, read a book alone, or to savor a rainy or cold day.

An absolute delight!…read more My husband made reservations for my birthday here, so when we arrived the hostess was already expecting us. She was so sweet, and the high chair request was already set up. She gave my son his menu, coloring sheet, and offered to open his crayons for him. And then, someone came by and got him his water cup ready. We're used to great service and wait staff being kind to our cute kid, but the service and kindness was exceptional here toward him! Our server was Hope, and she was astounding, along with the other servers taking care of our table. We ordered off the kid's menu: silver dollar pancakes with a side of berries. My husband ordered the Pork Steak Benedict with fresh squeezed orange juice, and I ordered the English Breakfast with drip coffee Not only was the atmosphere very calm, but the entire dining experience was just so pleasant. We loved our food, and we're stuffed immediately lol. The benedict had a great flavor: smokey, sweet, tangy and the eggs were perfectly poached. The English Breakfast was everything I dreamed it would be: snappy sausage, plump mushrooms, seasoned baked beans - so absolutely delicious! We loved our experience here, the Four Seasons Hotel is beautiful so lounging after our meal was great. There was also a beautiful view of the Arch.

Our table also had a scenic view of the Gateway Arch and the St. Louis skyline. We ordered the Sticky Cauliflower for appetizers. I loved the flavorful cauliflower, especially with that amazing Korean BBQ sauce. We also ordered the Blistered Shishito Peppers, which I could not stop eating. The peppers had a mild, smoky taste and mixed with Chili Crisp Oil and Yuzu Aioli. For my main course, I went with the Pan-Seared Scallops, which I enjoyed very much. For dessert, we had to get what we came here for - the Sticky Toffee Pudding. It was so delicious and a must-have if you dine here. I don't remember the names, but we also had a couple of cocktails that were really good! Service was very good. This is a great restaurant for dinner with a view and a pleasant ambiance.

5 Stars - Pharaoh's Donuts is a MUST-Visit!…read more Pharaoh's Donuts at 8 Maryland Plaza in St. Louis has officially earned my attention! Oh. My. Goodness!!! These yeasty, pillow-soft, melt-in-your-mouth little jewels of joy literally took my breath away. Every city I visit, I make it a mission to go doughnut hunting, but lately all I've been finding are oversized, over-decorated doughnuts that look amazing but lack flavor. Not Pharaoh's. These doughnuts are all about the taste. The rich, perfectly crafted yeast dough wraps your mouth with so much incredible flavor that I was literally salivating with every bite. They are light, fresh, airy, and absolutely unforgettable. This is what a real doughnut should taste like! And let's talk about the customer service! AJ was just as sweet as the treats they serve. She welcomed me with genuine kindness, asked where I was from, how long I'd be in St. Louis, and made me feel like more than just another customer. Then, just when I thought the experience couldn't get any better, I got back to my truck and discovered she had blessed me with three extra doughnuts to try! Now that's hospitality. Thank you, AJ, for making my first visit so memorable, and thank you, Pharaoh's Donuts, for reminding me what an authentic, delicious yeast doughnut is supposed to taste like. I'll definitely be back every time I'm in St. Louis. 5 out of 5 Stars! Highly recommended!
