The Pioneer Bakery Cafe (McArthur's Bakery)
210 N Kirkwood Rd, Webster Groves, MO
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Webster Groves, this beloved neighborhood gem combines a genuine bakery operation with a full breakfast and lunch cafe where the pastry selection is genuinely hard to choose from—locals rave about everything from the pineapple upside-down cake to creative sandwiches like their meat and egg with sausage. The staff hits that sweet spot of genuinely friendly and attentive without being fussy, and while the seating can be a bit utilitarian (hard chairs, though the bench is cozy), the excellent food at reasonable prices and relaxed, family-friendly vibe make it the kind of place you'll want to return to again and again.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Disclaimer. I did not eat anything at this spot because I was so full for lunch, but my friends did and the pineapple upside down cake and the gooey butter ice cream look phenomenal. We had so much fun at the spot! Thank goodness we didn’t get kicked out. The staff was…
My friend and I both ordered the meat and egg sandwich with sausage and it was so delicious! There were so many items on the menu that sounded good though, so I'll be back to try a burrito or an omelet as they looked delicious being delivered to adjacent tables. There were a…
