Ms. Gilmore's
211 E Commercial St, Springfield, MO
Crema's Take
“Ms. Gilmore's is a whimsical, eccentric spot that feels like stepping into a charming tea parlor, complete with an impressive selection of loose-leaf teas served generously by the pot and beloved sandwiches like their standout Hot Brown and Monte Cristo. The vibe is equal parts classy and playful with thoughtful decor, making it an ideal gathering place for friends and families, even on busy weekend mornings when the staff manages the crowds gracefully. Whether you're stopping by for a full brunch or just tea and pastries, this independent favorite has earned its 4.6-star reputation by delivering solid food, genuine hospitality, and an experience that feels genuinely special rather than cookie-cutter.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Stopped in for lunch with my mom and sister, we did the Tea for Two and added a third plate. The food was good but the portions were a bit small. The tea was very good as well, but again the pots were a bit small for the price. Overall it was good and had a cute environment and…
