La Finca Coffee
4440 Manchester Ave, St. Louis, MO
Crema's Take
“This cozy neighborhood gem in The Grove has mastered the art of hospitality, with staff who genuinely love teaching guests about coffee and are equally enthusiastic about their standout matcha lattes and buttery veggie empanadas. The space feels intentionally designed for lingering—whether you're settling in to work for hours or catching up with friends—with diverse seating nooks throughout a bright, inviting room that manages to be both energizing and calm. Their espresso-forward approach and pour-over precision reflect a real commitment to coffee craft that pairs beautifully with the Colombian café atmosphere and thoughtful light menu.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

The lattes were delicious, and the coffee was very good quality. We also enjoyed the veggie empanadas. The staff was kind, smiling, and took time to respond and help with orders. However, the café seemed a bit disorganized—one of our drinks was forgotten, and another came out…
Needed caffeine. Needed food. Walked into La Finca in the Grove and I got smacked in the face with deliciousness. The veggie empanadas with green salsa, how dare they be that good? Golden, flaky pockets of joy that made me rethink my entire stance on mid-morning snacks. And the…
