    Breakfast sandwich and greens
    Jordan H.

    Very busy small place, highly recommend getting reservations. Food was delicious, service was quick and coffee was good but wish it wasn't served in a plastic cup... not the vibe you want for a sit down brunch.

    Egg sandwich with gluten free bread, brûlées grapefruit
    Jessalyn O.

    I really enjoyed this experience. I had the egg sandwich with gluten free bread. I found their gluten free bread to be so much better than what I'm used to! It's very light and bouncy. I also had the brûlées grapefruit and it was delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. The patio is a bit cramped but overall pleasant.

    Avocado toast with egg and bacon and roasted potatoes
    Emelie M.

    Love Pink Willow every time we go! Well worth the wait. The avocado toast and the fried egg sandwich are my go to's for sure. Recently tried the BLT and WOW! Delicious with the garlic aioli! Love the whole establishment- little snug but enjoy none the less!

    Love the cute environment and vibe, the matcha drink is a little too sweet but still very nice. The toast with ham was very great and my friend loves the biscuit and gravy! recommend the crème brûlée blood grapefruit, loves it! Great food for a nice brunch with your friends! Service is very nice and quick and lots of parking around!

    Wow, this place is busy! This is my second time trying to eat here. I put us on the waitlist about 30 minutes prior to arriving and we still had to wait another 30 for our table to be ready. It is pretty tight inside, limited seating and there's nowhere to wait around as well. The food came out quickly though and it was pretty good. Got the Monte Cristo. It is a bit pricey for the amount of food you get. I also tried the matcha (nothing too special which is what I expected since it's not really a coffee shop). Cute brunch place but expect to wait for about an hour.

    A cute space for brunch. Seating is very limited. We seemed to have arrived at an off time (during the week and before others came in for lunch), so we had no wait and were seated inside. (There is some outdoor seating as well.) The food and service were good, but we definitely drove out to check out the vibe. :)

    Campfire latte
    Cassandra S.

    I've never been here before and I came for a pain in class with some girls. They had a third-party vendor in there for the painting portion, and it was painting little plastic pumpkins It was two hours long, but I feel like we could've been there at least three hours. It was so much fun. They do have great little lattes and mine was super cute. I just wish they also offered mock tails. Besides just lemonades. There wasn't much to drink for someone who is pregnant. I had the campfire latte in the lavender lemonade with glitter. It was so cute and fun.

    Harvest Hash with Candied Bacon
    Brent

    Super cute place, fantastic service, and fantastic food. We came here off a Google review Make sure I mention we live over an hour away and that we came on Valentine's Day. This place is great. All of our food was great. We will definitely be back.

    We showed up around 12:30 for brunch. *** you can join the Waitlist from their website. Doing this saved us from waiting 30+ minutes. There's a few items for breakfast that are not available for brunch after 11am. Cute restaurant with limited seating with friendly and helpful staff. The server uses a handheld device to enter orders and for guests to pay their check. This helps a lot with their efficiency. Ordered the avocado toast and it was smothered with avocado which was great. I liked the pickled onions. Really enjoyed it. There's plenty of street parking around the restaurant.

    Coconut cream pie latte
    Courtney N.

    This is a great place to eat for a girls day out, the pink /girly aesthetic is a vibe! Be sure to join the waitlist early though as this is a very busy spot with limited seating, we opted to go on a weekday during lunch to avoid a huge crowd! I got their seasonal coconut cream pie latte and a BLT with dressed greens as did my mom. The latte tasted just like the pie, it was delicious! The BLT was also good, but the amount of bacon was not consistent between mine and my mom's, mine had a lot more which we were confused about. Our server was great and attentive, for sure a spot to check out!

    Strawberry matcha cream
    K B.

    Super cute cafe on a really cute Main Street in Cottleville. Service by Raelyn was fantastic! And their food is really fresh, tasty and scratch! They make their own sausage, sourdough bread, fresh jam, etc. in house which is really impressive... I loved it so much I returned the next day for breakfast lol. If I'm ever back in the area I would most definitely return. 10/10

    Decor that changes every month according to our server

    Not only was the food AMAZING! But the atmosphere was so cute and service was fantastic! We will be going back!

    Celebrate a special occasion bottle
    Emily K.

    My friends and I came here for a friends birthday and it was perfect! We ordered the celebrate a special day and it was so cute. The bottle came out in a flower ice bucket that was perfect for the special occasion. The bubbles were also good! All of our food was good and came out fast. I got the willow club and it was delicious!

    Absolutely loved our breakfast here! My husband and I sat on the patio overlooking the river, and…read morethe view alone made it worth the visit! So peaceful, beautiful, and the perfect start to our morning! What truly made the experience exceptional was our server, Jenn. She was incredible from start to finish!! She was warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. She made great recommendations, checked on us at all the right times, and went above and beyond in ways you don't see often. My husband is picky about biscuits and gravy, and Jenn kindly brought him a sample of the gravy first to make sure he'd like it...such a small gesture to some people, but truly made it special for my husband. She even sent us off with coffee to go, which we really appreciated!! The food was just as impressive. I had the traditional breakfast. Everything was cooked perfectly, the potatoes were nice and crispy, Jenn recommended the ham, which was so flavorful and perfectly charred, so good!!! My husband ended up loving his biscuits and gravy! Between the amazing service, delicious food, and relaxing riverfront setting, this was easily one of our favorite breakfast experiences. Jenn truly made it memorable, and we'll definitely be asking for her every time we come back. Can't wait to return!!

    What a charming cafe in the middle of a charming Downtown area!…read more It was freezing the morning we went in, but I was wanting breakfast - specifically pancakes. I had this place in the bookmarks and figured now was the best time to visit. Parking can be an issues in Downtown St. Charles since it is limited to street parking or public parking a few blocks away. We found parking right in front of FPC, mainly because it was a cold, Monday morning. We were greeted immediately, and inside was much smaller than I expected. We got seated right away though, and a good chance to really review the menu. I got a house coffee (delicious), and my husband got a Purple Haze Lemonade. We ended up getting a kid's pancake with bacon and scrambled eggs, Short Rib Breakfast Stack, and a Bomb Burrito. The pancake for my 2 year old was MASSIVE so it was a good day for him lol. The short rib stack was yummy - hash browns with runny eggs and meat on top. The burrito was also pretty good. Our breakfast entrees came with a side order of potatoes and while it was good, it got saltier over time so I might not get that next time. They advertise beignets, so we might go for that next time and try out their lunch menu!

At 8 AM on a Sunday morning, there was already a pretty good crowd…read more I've been doing meetups at local coffee shops for the past several weeks, and sometimes it's kind of a ghost town, even if the food and coffee is good. I'd suggest that people were there to visit downtown St. Charles, or whatever it's called, which has a certain old-timey charm to it, but everything else was closed--presumably until later in the day, but who knows. That fentanyl is a menace. Parking could be a pain, if it's not the wee hours of the morning on a weekend, and you're not ambulatory enough to walk from a block or two over, and yet you're going to get essentially the equivalent of a milkshake and a donut. Inside is rustic, inviting and larger than you'd think, with an upstairs area that I didn't bother to explore, due to lack of curiosity. We had a larger group and ended up pushing a few smaller tables together, plus a few chairs we borrowed from other tables. No one seemed to mind. The key is not to ask first. That mentality will take you far in both the world of finance and dating. I'm kind of over ordering food from coffee shops, where they're obviously just throwing something in the microwave and charging you $10 for it, but I needed something to eat. I'd just gone for a run. Their burrito looked like the textbook definition of cultural appropriation, but it also looked like it might not be half bad. I had their equivalent of an Egg McMuffin, called Ron's Breakfast Sandwich, or something to that effect. When I hear the name Ron, I of course think of Sasso from Carlito's Way, but that probably says more about me than anything else. I'm assuming he didn't have anything to do with this. Essentially, this was a store-bought English muffin, a surprisingly generous and delicious helping of cheddar cheese, a few slices of seemingly prepackaged black forest ham and a fried egg. It was fine for what it was. Could the egg have been salted, could the muffin have been buttered and could the ham been an actual slice of Canadian bacon, or even better, American bacon? Sure, but I went into this with low expectations. The cheddar was melty and delicious, and weirdly abundant, but processed American cheese would have been more fitting for this kind of sandwich. You'd think a guy named Ron wouldn't object to processed foods. The caramel frappe I had was amazing. I got it with whole milk and whipped cream. I didn't bother to check and see if they charge you extra for whipped cream, which is the kind of crap some of these places have been known to pull. I got the 16 oz instead of the 20 oz, but it was probably still enough to take a day off the end of my life (when I don't need it as much anyway fwiw). Sometimes, when a food item tastes good enough, you can just tell it's not good for you, and that was the case with this drink. It was decidedly rich. I'm never in this part of town, and if I were, it would be at night, natch, but if things ever get to the point where they're clearly trending in that direction, I might start stopping by on the reg and getting that caramel frappe just to speed along the process of my demise.

The food was absolutely delicious, and every visit has been a great experience. One thing I love is that the dining experience changes depending on when you visit. Dinner features a selected menu, while brunch is served buffet-style with an incredible variety of options including Belgian mini waffles, homestyle potatoes, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit, bacon, brisket, biscuits and gravy, salad, and so much more. Did I mention live music? The live music creates the perfect ambiance, and the family-friendly environment makes it ideal for any occasion. Whether you're planning a girls' night out, a date night, or a family gathering, this place checks every box. And as if that wasn't enough, there's also a fantastic distillery tucked away in the back area with first-come, first-served seating. It's a great addition to an already amazing experience. My family and I have already visited twice, and we'll definitely be back again. If you haven't experienced Cottleville Wine Sellers for yourself, you're missing out. Don't just take my word for it, go see what all the excitement is about!
