First time checking this place out and immediately felt welcome. Great atmosphere. Great employees quick service great coffee great food. I think it'd be hard pressed to find a better place. read more

Was very disappointed by the breakfast sandwich. Based on other reviews I was expecting fresh and tasty. Hearing the microwave start after I placed my order was not a good sign. My husband liked his coffee but I think we would've been just as satisfied at the McDonalds across the street. The place was also very dirty and appeared to have not been cleaned from the day before. And there were gnats flying around. read more

Excellent service! Went there today and was taken very good care of with great attention. Breakfast sandwich was made with care and was delicious. Coffee is amazing. My new daily spot. read more

I'm new to the area, so I am looking for a new favorite coffee shop. I was up pretty early on a Saturday so my only options on Telegraph were the national chains and Perk It Up, which made my choice easy. The shop was clean, the staff friendly, and the menu offered everything I would expect from a full service coffee shop, and some breakfast sandwiches as well. Unfortunately, I found my latte to be lacking in strength, even with the addition of an extra shot of espresso. A for effort but I'll be shopping around. read more

The owner is wonderful. I go in there when I can and they also have a lot of sugar-free options for lattes. I have not been in the store for about 4 months but the owner knew that I like hazelnut sugar free. She is wonderful! read more

Cute little spot, their bagel sandwiches are delicious. Service was wonderful, the worker has been there for over 20 years and makes everything fresh to order. Would go back! read more

Owner seems nice enough. It is a bit strange to walk in and have someone giving massages in the middle of the store. Definitely get beans and go as the prepped coffee is weak. Lots of good gift to chose from though. I can't rate the food as we did not have it. read more

I work remotely from home. My home wifi went out a few months ago but thankfully Perk it up is just down Telegraph rd! They were very accommodating for me to set up my laptop and spend the afternoon working there. I appreciate that they have a variety of sugar free coffee syrup flavors for lattes ( not just vanilla - aka Starbucks) Also be sure to check out the delicious baked goods! read more

Wonderful little establishment. The food is average aside from the baked goods which are hand-made, but the coffee and lattes remain as standouts. Note in advance that the restaurant has very limited seating: only a small table in the corner of the lobby but the service is quick so you won't be standing for long. There is also many cute little nicknacks dotted about, which are nice to look at and depending on your tastes would be nicer at your own home. read more

Speaking as a total coffee snob, let me tell you, come to Perk It Up. First of all, you want to meet Christina, the owner. Once you've met, she'll remember your name and order and she'll get it right. For example, I asked for sugar free hazelnut syrup but not too sweet and she made it just right. My latte was excellent, as was my husband's espresso. read more

Great find. I deviated from my Starbucks routine as I just wanted somewhere close, and found this place. How have I lived so close for a year and never noticed it? I went in today and it smelled wonderful! The owner Christina was friendly and knowledgeable beyond compare to a coffee house I've been to before. I mentioned I was an iced coffee girl and she just started walking me through options. I ended up with an iced salted caramel turtle with oat milk and it was amazing! Christina shared that if I call ahead she will run my drink out to me too! I tried one of her customizable breakfast sandwiches and that was so good and what a great price at $3.75! I will definitely be back!!!!! read more

Professional, prompt, and friendly service. Doesn't matter if you're spending $2.50 on a fresh brewed cup or $60.00 on a couple pounds for home use. You'll get the staff's full attention. The place is very knowledgeable and welcoming. read more

I haven't had their food yet but i showed up 20 minutes before they closed and there was no one to be seen. Very disappointed i was really excited to try it. i'll be back soon. read more

Perk It Up is the best coffee shop in the South County area. The flavor options far exceed Dunkin and even Starbucks. Whether you're getting hot or iced, the quality is without a doubt better than both of them as well. Instead of waiting in long lines and getting incorrectly made orders at those places, try Perk It Up. You won't regret it! read more

Absolutely love this little coffee shop! They have the best selection of local coffee beans, teas etc! My go to is normally the caramel macchiato hot or iced; its delish. Also, don't pass on the breakfast sandwiches. The sausage, egg white and cheese on croissant is fantastic along with other bakery items. Do yourself a favor and pass on the bitter tasting chain coffee shops and visit this one instead. read more

Went here for the first time this morning. Had a croissant breakfast sandwich and my husband had a bagel. The croissant was fresh and tasted really good. My husband had a bagel which he said was fresh. Toasted perfectly. I had a caramel macchiato and my husband had the regular house coffee. Both were really good. I would recommend this cute coffee shop. Owner was really nice. read more

The latte's are ok and the service is friendly. They support all local businesses. I was told their beans come from a local bean roasting company in St. Louis. It is good to see local businesses supporting each other. I will be coming back. read more

Only have been here one time (so far!) & it was amazing! The lady working who I would have to believe is the owner was so nice, attentive, and efficient for working by herself. I was overall impressed. My husband loved his espresso, and my latte was superb quality! Not your mainstream overdone coffee place. What a relief to find! You can tell they use quality ingredients and love goes into every cup made. Such reasonable prices too! Especially for how good it was. Just like the place is called, my coffee sure did "perk me up!" Lol. The inside is adorable and they have cute little gifts too. A must go! I will be back. read more

A friendly neighborhood coffee house offering a range of flavors and reasonable prices. It works for me.

Really cute and welcoming little coffee shop with FANTASTIC lattes. It's really nice to have a locally owned alternative to S-Bux. Get your caffeine fix here. read more

I'm been coming here for a long time. It's a local hangout. People come to chat for a while & move on. It's a community place. It's not Starbucks' atmosphere but at least you don't have a dozen people squatting on the wifi for hours on end & choking it... Like Starbucks. People know each other here. Only downside is short hours. Mornings only. read more
