Rosemary Coffee Co
1316 Big Bend Rd, Webster Groves, MO
Crema's Take
“This Webster Groves gem combines meticulous espresso-focused craftsmanship with a thoughtfully designed, non-industrial space that feels genuinely welcoming rather than trendy. The staff's warm hospitality and the café's uniquely shaped layout create an intimate, low-noise atmosphere perfect for lingering over a pour over or settling into a conversation, while their specialty drinks like sugar-free vanilla lattes prove they care about executing both classics and creative variations with equal skill.”

I'll start off by saying this is an exceptional coffee shop. Along with the wonderful coffee blends,the staff is great. The warm greetings and friendly atmosphere makes this place somewhere you want to be,first thing in the morning. So don't cheat yourself, treat yourself, to Rosemary Coffee! You won't be disappointed.
The first time at this coffee house. It's a very modern contemporary feel, and the sugar-free vanilla latte I had was excellent! They also have tea lattes, which I plan on trying on my next visit. They also have assorted pastries.
Nice atmosphere with a very friendly staff and a non-strip mall, non-industrial decor. Love the non-rectangular space which gives it great ambience and low noise. Has a few food items such as coffee cake, cookies, muffins and souffle.
Unfortunately, Google does not provide a rating for beverages, which would be very helpful to anyone who goes to coffee, shops, or bars or different places for any kind of drink. With that caveat here is my review of Rosemary Coffee Company. Trying new in different coffee shops is hobby for me. I was inspired to try this one by two things, my neighbor who said he had been there and thought it was a nice place and enjoyed being served coffee in an actual china cup, and the STL coffee pass. The beverages that my wife and I had were both very good - well above the average. In terms of the food, my wife ordered a soufflé and I had their recommended cinnamon roll. Both items were very disappointing. The pictured cinnamon roll was $7.50 and for that price should be outstanding. Additionally, the soufflé did not come out to the picked up at the counter till we had almost finished our drinks. The interior of the coffee shop which can be seen in the photographs is overall nice and new. As an interior designer, I’m not a fan raw constructed black painted ceilings or concrete floors. Neither make spaces warm or cozy and the black ceiling robs the spaces of light. It’s unfortunate that they did not extend the material used over the service area and bar throughout the entire space. From a service perspective, it would be great if some of the coffee shops would figure out a way to move away from the Starbucks model and actually serve customers. Our experience at Rosemary on the service front was not good and the drinks were served in paper cups - not china. Rosemary gets our recommend recommendation coffee and other beverages. But if you’re looking for food and service, you might want to look elsewhere.
I stopped by with my book, thinking I could snuggle in for a nice and cozy coffee time. Rosemary Coffee Co. was so busy! I almost turned around because there was no place to sit... BUT everything looked too tempting and I just HAD to try something. :) I didn't have to wait long to order, the staff member helping me was SO nice, the ambience was impeccable, and the hot chocolate I ordered was absolutely delicious. This place is perfect -- the only problem is that other people found it before me!! And they know it's perfect too! If you want a wonderful, glorious, delectable, stellar cafe experience, please stop by. The place is brimming with nice people and local artists' ready-for-purchase pieces. And there are books all over! And plants! It's beautiful. However, if you want a good place to work or read, you may have to wait for a table. There is limited seating inside and outside (50 people max inside, I'm guessing?... And 6 chairs at 3 tables outside). Overall, still a perfect score for Rosemary Coffee Co. The service was awesome and very fast. The drink was perfection. I just need to get there earlier next time! I'll be back!!!
