Cafe de Blaire

442 N 4th St, St. Louis, MO

★★★★★4.9(805 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

This St. Louis gem trades pretension for genuine warmth, with a owner named Sunny who makes every visitor feel like a regular from their first visit. The espresso-focused menu delivers smooth, creative drinks like blackberry coconut and chocolate banana lattes that justify the near-perfect 4.9 rating, while the made-to-order breakfast sandwiches and thoughtful details (bagel choices, fair pricing) show they actually care about the experience. It's the rare coffee shop that equally excels as both a quick caffeine stop for travelers and a cozy refuge for locals who've made it their daily sanctuary.

The experience Sunny gave us was nothing short of phenomenal! My fiancé and I were passing through to see the arch and wanted to stop by for some local coffee and breakfast. We had some made to order breakfast sandwiches and I tried my first affogato (espresso with ice cream) Sunny confirmed with me that I wanted vanilla verse trying it with a flavored ice cream. I can be a little nervous trying new things but I wish I had listened to her. She gave us some samples of her other ice creams that she makes in house. The banana walnut chocolate chip was what I definitely should have gotten instead. It was like banana bread as ice cream! They were all very tasty! Sunny has an amazing, funny, bubbly personality and shared some amazing stories from her life as we dined in. She creates a unique experience different from other small independent shops we have been to. Definitely stop by and see her if you're in the area or seeing the arch! We know we will in the future!

Amazing experience, incredibly kind owner. The coffee is smooth, delicious, and a good price. I ordered the blackberry coconut latte with oatmeal, amazing! The chocolate banana latte is fantastic as well. Highly recommend! When I come back to St.Louis I will be sure to make a stop here and continue to support this wonderful business ❤️

Visiting STL and chose to stop by Cafe de Blaire after seeing great reviews online. I ordered a breakfast bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese. I was offered a choice between a plain or everything bagel. The food came out fast and hot! I also ordered a Honeynut Latte from the seasonal menu. Sweet but not too sweet. Cafe de Blaise features Kaldi's Coffee, which is a STL business. Glad to stop by and support a local business!

Café de Blaire has quickly become my go-to spot for coffee and relaxation. Its ambiance strikes a perfect balance between cozy and vibrant, making it a great place to work or unwind. The baristas are passionate about coffee and take the time to explain the different brewing methods and flavor profiles. I opted for a flat white, and it was expertly crafted—smooth, creamy, and with just the right amount of espresso kick. The pastry selection was impressive; I tried a blueberry muffin that was fresh and bursting with flavor. I also appreciated the comfortable seating arrangements, with both cozy nooks and communal tables available. Free Wi-Fi and plenty of charging outlets make it ideal for remote work. Café Aroma is a delightful blend of quality coffee and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps me coming back.

We stayed at Hotel Saint Louis for a mother daughter weekend and needed our morning coffee. This was a quick walk to Cafe de Blaire and it was the best coffee and breakfast food we’ve had in a long time! And the owner was so friendly and welcoming :) We got an iced brown butter latte with cold foam, an iced german chocolate mocha and a hot white mocha- all to which we loved! Create your own breakfast sandwiches were delicious and the açaí bowl was phenomenal! We will definitely be back when we’re in the area! Go pay this cute place a visit, you won’t regret it!
