Cafe Dolce
5143 Daggett Ave, St. Louis, MO
Crema's Take
“Tucked away on the Hill, Cafe Dolce is a cozy neighborhood gem where the espresso drinks rival the pastries—think freshly piped cannoli, buttery Italian cookies, and creative seasonal lattes like lavender white chocolate mocha that keep locals coming back. The intimate, inviting space celebrates traditional Italian coffee culture with a modern twist, making it the perfect spot to linger over a exceptional cup and connect with fellow coffee lovers, even if seating is refreshingly limited.”

Limited seating. Great coffee. The pastries are not (all?) made there which was disappointing. I was looking forward to a sfogliatelle, pictured on their menu. They were stale and frozen in the middle. I was told they come from a bakery in Chicago. The cookies were good though. I would go back, but be pickier about the treats.
Went on a weekend trip on the hill. My new favorite coffee shop ever. This is an absolute perfect place. The pastries/cookies? Devine. The coffees/lattes are the best I've had from a shop. The people? Beautiful souls all of them. The owner and the employees were over the top sweet. I will be missing this one for sure and pining for it until we come to the Lou again.
I ordered pistachio cookies, almond/cherry cookies, cucidatti, and 2 cannoli plus a cream filled pastry that I forgot the Italian name for! Great friendly service and they pipe the cannoli fresh per order. I also got a nitro cold brew coffee that was delicious. I've been eating on the goodies all day that I bought earlier this morning! Highly recommend on your trip to St. Louis in The Hill. Doggies are welcome and it sounded like there are regulars from how they were greeted. Also this is a woman owned business. I will be back next time (and should have bought more to take home!)
If you’re looking for one of the best cannolis in St. Louis, then Cafe Dolce is it! I’ve been back a few times just for the cannoli and they are to die for. The atmosphere is cute, cozy, and inviting. One of my favorite spots on The Hill!
Visited this establishment on our trip to St. Louis. I ordered a butter pecan oat milk latte. My partner ordered a lavender white chocolate mocha latte. I paired it with a raspberry scone. It was all very delicious. My son ordered a giant cake pop and loved it and my picky child ordered a sugar cookie and loved it. I would definitely go back again even if it was a bit pricey. For those 5 items it was $31.
