Good coffee and good breakfast sandwiches, with a comfortable seating area inside. It's a great breakfast stop if you're in the area.

The coffee here is generally average quality but they do a good job with espresso drinks. Staff and customer service, on the other hand is quite superior to other places. I always enjoy the atmosphere here. Be advised there is a policy that you may spend only 1 hour at a table. Not STRICTLY enforced, just be aware.

We had Potato Kale Vegetable Soup, Ultraviolet Power Plant Energy drink no super cream and Glow Worm Power Plant Energy drink. Reasonably priced. Excellent service and suggestions as I am lactose intolerant. Clean, attractive place to eat.

Another great Java House location. Very nice, comprehensive coffee shop. Very cute and tasteful design; some very distinctive pieces of furniture, like a cool rounded chair with decorative wood arms. 😉I got an oats n’ honey latte, which was good and different. Friendly staff. Wait was a little bit long, though.

Excellent service, but the setup was a bit confused. Maranda was extremely polite, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail. The tea was fantastic, brewed perfectly, neither too lightly nor too strongly, and the steel-cut oats were exactly as delicious as steel-cut oats should be. We did have a tiny bit of confusion when it came to picking up our coffee, but that may have been due to our own newness to the system here. The coffee itself was very good, certainly worth the trip. It was flavorful, and strong without the bitterness or burnt flavors found in the other coffee shops' coffees, which might require cream or sugar. Also, very pleasantly surprised to see almond milk and coconut milk as well as soy milk. Overall, very well done.

Food is delicious and plentiful. Prices went up a little bit recently but still worth it. Great atmosphere, I never feel hurried nor is it a sleepy environment. I can count on fresh made, delicious, and nutritious food. I believe they have wifi as well, though I don't use it due to need for a secure wifi connection. Good place to do work and get good food.

My favorite coffee anywhere. St. Louis Blues is simply amazing. The staff are great. The only downside is the fact that you can't be there for more than an hour. Sometimes I like to read a book and order coffee over a three hour period and can't do that at this location.

I'm not a coffee drinker, but they make pretty good hot chocolate! Great quiet study spot. Their staff is fine with this as long as you get something every once in a while. I've never had good luck with their wireless, so not the best for internet-intensive studying.
Hannah Bott
Great staff and decent atmosphere. The coffee is okay, not a ton of variety in pour over compared to other local places but you can usually get a "special" blend in espresso in addition to their regular house blend.
Amanda Green
Some staff very attentive. Others less so. Tiramisu is my fav dessert and there is a good variety to choose from. I prefer espresso drinks over the pourover coffee. Seating is always available and socially distanced. Disinfectant and paper towels available for use on tables. Signage indicating "sanitized" or "dirty" is a handy addition. Love that place.
