This place is a great place to meet with friends, socialize and get some really good breakfast, soups, sandwiches, hot/cold drinks and desserts! Everything is always fresh, service is with a smile and in particular, the breakfast sandwiches are the best! Highly recommended. read more

It's a shame my nail place is literally right next door and I'm just now getting around to trying this place! I came pretty early this morning and as expected, there was a wait. Thankfully, they had all hands on deck so there was minimal time spent waiting. The woman who took my order was kind and patient as I struggled to select which kind of bread I wanted from their plethora of options. Although I came in undecided between a sandwich and one of their pastries, I opted for the former and a chocolate chip cookie. After waiting all of five minutes, my name was called and I was on my way. While the presentation of the sandwich wasn't the most appealing it def made up for it in taste. The egg was whole but cooked to perfection. Although I asked for cheddar, I was given white cheddar instead, which I was surprised because this was not told to me when I ordered. The sandwich was good, but I'll need to choose a different bread next time since it was quite mushy. The cookie was good and something I'd compare to tollhouse. It was incredibly soft but again, I was thrown off by the semisweet, almost dark chocolate chips. Nevertheless, it was still good and I'd get it again. Overall, this place reminds me of a Des Peres version of La Bonne Bouche. It's got ample seating, tons of pastries, and other cafe items. I'll def return. read more

Daily Bread is a delish, locally owned lunch spot with a broad menu, including options for both savory and sweet. My favorite lunch is the 5 cheese tomato basil pizza which has a unique flavor profile with delicious cheeses including smoked gouda - and fresh tomatoes. They also have the cutest baked goods - including many wrapped cookie sets that are seasonally decorated and gift ready. Service is great and the restaurant is counter service style. The line can get long but usually goes fast. The harder part can be finding a seat. They do have a lot of seating though including outdoor options. read more

Always happy with my food here- whether it is a breakfast sandwich or lunch flatbread, soup, or pizza. Great for breakfast or lunch with friends, or for a quiet single table to get some work done during less busy times. (The lunch rush can get a bit crowded and you might feel like you are camping out.) Outdoor seating for nice weather days. I like to order the turkey spinach artichoke flatbread. The pizza is made with the same type of flatbread crust and it is also fresh and amazing! Several friendly staff taking orders at once so even a line that looks long moves fairly quickly. The baked goods are another reason to stop in. Amazing pumpkin bread! And while the cookies aren't my favorite- they are always soo pretty! read more

I asked the lady what's their best selling bakery item and I went with the strawberry cheese croissant and I ordered a 12oz Carmella. The Carmella was excellent with the caramel flavor to my latte. The croissant was flaky which is nice. The cheese and strawberry topping was a little light on flavor. I was wanting cheese flavor and strawberry flavor to stand on their own. Very clean restaurant. The vibe of the restaurant is friendly and personable. read more

I popped in here after traveling all weekend and wanted something fresh and green. I love a good salad but found it hard to choose since there aren't any descriptions on the menu. I could totally be missing a supplemental handheld menu, but I remember thinking this before when I've been in during previous visits. I went with a choice that I knew I couldn't go wrong with, the Greek salad. It was definitely fresh, loved the big chunks of feta and the tangy dressing. It was a simple salad I could make at home, but that's the nature of the kind of salad. Their baked goods always look delicious, and the coffee was fresh and good as well. This place has a lot of regulars and is a neighborhood favorite. read more

What a happy place! I love the open concept of this bakery and cafe, and the service is super speedy! Their glass display of desserts makes me so distracted in the best way possible!

I had an early morning start on a Friday. They took my order Thursday and it was waiting for me for pick up the next day. Thank you.

Five stars because they always have 1 or more vegan bakery items in the case! I wish the avocado toast was a bit more avocado-y but I appreciate that it's two pieces. Prices are fair. Definitely worth trying especially if you're looking for a fresh vegan chocolate chip cookie! read more

Great little lunch spot in Kirkwood! I've been coming to Daily Bread since I was a kid, but it was good to be back and see all the renovations that have been made. The staff was super welcoming and made some great recommendations. I went with the pick two soup/sandwich combo. The mushroom gouda soup was so flavorful and filling! This was my favorite. I also ordered one of the fall sandwiches, which I found pretty average and just a little bland. I do think there are better sandwich options on the menu. I'm sure I'll be back again when I find myself back in Kirkwood! read more

I have been buying products from this place for many, many years. Today, at lunchtime, I walked in as usual, walked over and got three plates of expensive cookies. I walked up to the cash register to pay for them, and a blonde female behind the counter told me that in order for me to purchase the cookies, I had to go stand in the order line, which had about 15 people standing in at the time waiting to order lunch. That's never happened to me before. Everyone prior to this has been more than happy to check me out. You folks have just lost a lifetime customer. It WAS one of my go-to places for catering a couple of hospital/doctor's offices. I have spent many thousands of dollars at this store. Not again. And, I will tell everyone else that I know. Unbelievable. Unnecessary. read more

MONTAMORE GRILLED CHEESE FROM THE WINTER SEASONAL MENU. ENOUGH SAID This place is ALWAYS poppin no mater what time I go. The workers are friendly and this is a great place to meet friends for lunch. The pre-made granola, nut mix, and cakes on the side wall by the counter are all delicious. The food there is great and doesn't feel too heavy. I patiently await for the montamore grilled cheese to make its return every winter. read more

Last Saturday I went to lunch with a friend. I have been coming to Daily Bread for decades starting out when they first opened up in University City over 40 years ago. I experienced a " freak accident". As I was pouring my cream into my very hot coffee at the coffee station something exploded at the coffee bar and spewed all the burning hot coffee on me and a metal lid from the lid dispenser exploded burning my forearm and soaking my silk top. It took what seemed like a long time for someone to even come over to help. One of the workers noticed the issue and brought some cold wet towels. Then a pastry chef finally came over to make an incident report and said something happened on the other side of the restaurant before but no one was there when it exploded. He insisted on giving me 2 pastries and said the owner would reach out to me on Monday. I am very disappointed that today March 30,2025 is one week later and the owner NEVER reached out to me. Thankfully the burn did not blister. It was a very painful few hours. My silk brocade blouse/jacket were stained. I am appalled that no one reached out to me. That lid container that exploded could have just as easily hit me in the face. What makes you think it's okay not to have reached out and explain what the issue is that you have things pressure exploding in your restaurant . Paula Sigel read more

We stopped here after church to grab something lighter than what's around. Soup and salads sounded good and we were hopeful after seeing the crowd. Lots of parking and the interior of the place is cute and clean. Lots of subway tiles and black metal fixtures. Order was taken quickly and we grabbed a table to wait for our name to be called. Food was ok, but everything seemed a bit off than what we expected. The "pick 2" on the meme was for a full size sandwich/salad and soup. Not sure that our salads were the full sizes. Broccoli cheddar soup was luke warm, pretty thin/runny and had as amp shredded carrots as it did broccoli. Caesar salad with tomato? Cobb salad with mushrooms? The chicken on the Cobb salad was clearly precooked, and was dumped on top, as I pulled the pieces apart, not very appetizing. The seasonal grilled cheese was the most consistent thing that we got, but it was fairly tiny. The little bag of chips that came with it made it look even smaller. Place was packed with the after church crowd, and they seemed to be doing a good business. Not sure that this is a place we will go back to again. Felt like a more toned down version of Panera food. read more

Was there on a Friday around noon, a lot of people there. Service was good as you stand in line to order and then call your name when the order is done. I had the ham, ell and cheese on a bagel and it was tasty about the right size. I had a fruit cup as a side, some of the fruit was not fresh. It was a struggle to find a table. Overall a good place for breakfast and lunch as they have a lot of choices and a lot of bakery items. Atmosphere was nice although a little to noisy for me read more

Great business really good food and service. Highly recommend them for lunch. Their sandwiches are perfectly de Only reason not to give them 5 stars is their coffee is just not great. But I'm real fussy about coffee and they aren't really a coffee shop. read more

I love this place. The food is fabulous and the desserts are even better. The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is great.

Everything! Ambiance, food, wonderful service! Highly recommend Daily Bread! Location is convenient. Extra tables outside is a plus! read more

Food is always excellent. Service is fast even if there's a line. Th place is always busy.

The Daily Bread is one of my favorite breakfast cafes. They offer fresh sandwiches and yummy salads. They have an incredible selection of sweet treats (croissants, cookies, strudels etc). They also have whole gooey butter cakes, premade cookie trays and other grab and go desserts. They have a line most weekend mornings but it moves quickly. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with egg and cheese on wheat. It was simple, but good. The turkey club was fresh and extremely filling. The iced cookies are always a family favorite! They have a ton of seating and large booths for families to enjoy their breakfast/lunch. read more

Stop by there yesterday. The line was quick. You have to pick up your food at the counter and clean up after yourself. We got coffee, blueberry muffin, apple pastry and cherry pastry. Everything was fresh and tasty. We had a very nice time. We will be back! read more

Good place to pick up freshly baked goods. Stopped by after a long run (ritual carb-loading post runs = sampling several pastries at a time) and really enjoyed the croissant for the bacon/egg/cheese breakfast sandwich. The cinnamon roll was my favorite pastry, not a ton of frosting and not supersized, so a great snack or side with a light, yummy flavor. The bread pudding was ok. Bread pudding is my favorite, so I may just be too particular about flavor and texture, but that wasn't something I'd order again here. I ordered what I thought was a sugar cookie as well (told you carb loading = several pastries in one sitting!) and had verified with the girl at the counter that it was indeed a sugar cookie, but it had a slightly lemony, pillowy texture more similar to a madeleine than a cookie. I'm not sure if maybe she was mistaken but it didn't taste anything like sugar cookies I've had before - which is pretty numerous. Overall, I'd return to purchase a croissant or cinnamon roll and to check out their other lunch/dinner entrees. Convenient location on Manchester and ordering/carry out was pretty quick. read more

We get mixed service here, but the food is always great! I once had to wait 20 minutes for a cup of tea because they said they couldn't use the hot water spout until the water inside reached a certain temperature. Ever heard of a microwave? read more

I ordered a pizza online at the Daily Bread Bakery and picked it up curbside a few weeks ago--it was my first time trying anything from there and I was looking for dinner options at the time, but I'd like to come back and try some more traditional bakery items, like BREAD and sandwiches and sweet pastries. We ordered the BBQ chicken pizza, which came with chicken, gouda, mozzarella cheese, and sliced onions, and LOVED it. It was still hot when we got home to eat it, and had just enough BBQ sauce, chewy dough/crust, and toppings. I want to come back to try their cinnamon rolls, ciabatta, and gooey butter cake! read more

Food was delicious. Service was mediocre. I liked the idea that they seem to believe in DEI. Hoping to go there again.

My husband and I stopped here after going to shoe store next door. We had a long wait and we're hungry afterwards we stumbled upon this place fell in love with it. The service was quick and kind. The food was fast and fresh. We loved the option for outdoor seating and appreciated the homey feel. read more

We own a cafe in Maplewood and were running out of a couple of breads late Saturday afternoon. We've know Patrick and Daily Bread for decades and on a flyer, stopped in to see if they could help us out and they did! In the process of slicing 7 sourdough loaves for us I had to get the Apple Strudel and Tiramisu and it was all heavenly. Thanks to you and your wonderful crew! read more

Today was my first time back to The Daily Bread since the remodel. I ordered a half Caesar salad and a half Roast Beef sandwich. As you can see the Roast Beef sandwich was teeny tiny, 2.5" tiny. (Just happened to have a tape measure on me. See pic.) I asked the manager (owner?) if this was a half sandwich and he said, yes, it was. (More like a quarter sandwich, in my opinion.) I would much rather get a decent sized sandwich and pay more than receive this 3- bite roast beef sandwich. I left the restaurant still hungry. My friend took pity on me and offered me her dinner roll. I have worked in many restaurants and have eaten in many more restaurants in my time. I would be embarrassed to serve this to customers. Come on DB, you can do better than this!! On a positive note, 5 stars to the little food there was to eat, it was yummy! read more

I love this place and this was my first time there since the expansion. They have a wide open feeling now, indoor and outdoor seating, and delicious food. I've gotten sandwiches, salads, and soups there and have never been disappointed. Salads are fresh and creative, sandwiches come on fresh bread, and they have a decadent display of many baked goods - cookies, brownies, and fancier stuff. I don't get out to the suburbs very often but this is a great place if you're out that way. read more

I used to work at the daily bread and boy do I constantly crave the food. First of all, most things are baked fresh, I can attest to this. I worked in the back prepping baked goods and oh wow are the muffins good right out of the oven. I will forever miss being able to eat them freshly baked. I dream of it. I also worked up front making salads and they were made with love. At least when I made them they were. The staff pre COVID was wonderful and I loved them. I haven't been there since as I've been away for college but I'm sure the staff is still great. Management is okay. The smell is so nostalgic and the aesthetic matches the place perfectly! Can't wait to eat the baked goods again. Personally I recommend the chocolate muffins, BLT in the summer, and the chicken and wild rice soup! Asiago bagels are always a good choice too. read more

Old lunch spot that I missed relaxing late salads. The counter lady greeted me with a smile & the guy made my salad quickly. I had to ask for Wi-Fi password... I understand, but slightly annoying. Just print it on receipt. The Autumn Crunch salad was very good for $8.25. Mostly plant based with lettuce, walnuts, strawberries, apples, raisins, tomatoes plus bleu cheese crumbles & a roll with balsamic vinaigrette dressing on the side. It was nice & fresh. Green tea was my choice out of 6 different iced tea offered. They also have sodas & coffee. Coming back made me realize I missed this place, read more

I went the other day to daily bread. I got my food super fast and food was delicious but sometimes I have to listen to the exact menu.

Loved it all. Arrived for dine in at 12:30 on a Tuesday afternoon and it was hoppin'! Everything was quick. Fast to place the order, plenty of seating, food came out fast. Bakery selection looked delicious! I ordered toast w avocado and feta, coworker had the bbq chicken pizza. Food was SOLIDLY 5 stars. No notes. I could have eaten both our meals. Cannot wait to go back and try more menu items. YUM. read more

The breakfast sandwiches and coffee drinks were delicious. I wish the to-go drinks had lids without holes or plugs to prevent spilling. And the chocolate chip cookies weren't as good as I hoped for a gift basket but overall a very good experience and would recommend. I will continue to enjoy when possible. read more
