Crema's Take
“This cozy Clayton spot radiates genuine warmth the moment you step inside, where the aroma of freshly roasting Ethiopian beans fills the air and a tight-knit team guides you through thoughtful coffee choices with real care. Whether you're diving into their signature Ethiopian macchiato, savoring an impressively smooth black drip, or lingering over house-made pastries, Ethio Coffee delivers the kind of unhurried, community-focused experience that keeps people coming back—a place where first-timers feel instantly welcomed and regulars become part of the family.”

We went to Ethio coffee spontaneously and it was so delicious. The employees were very kind and the atmosphere was nice. I’d recommend you go there to grab some coffee
I absolutely loved the coffee. Good quality Ethiopian bean. Hade the Ethiopian macchiato. Also had the cinnamon roll and definitely in my top five list. I will come again when in St. Louis.
Stopped in today to grab some “go-go” juice. It has been on my radar, glad I was able to finally make it happen. Walking in the door you are hit with the deep comforting smell of roasting coffee. They roast on-site. The menu is full of fun titles like “zebra mocha, Milky Way, red bone mocha” along with the normal go-to of macchiato and espresso. There are frozen and non coffee drinks offered too. I ordered the red bone mocha latte and the Milky Way. The Milky Way was for my niece. The red bone had raspberry and chocolate. The flavor was there, but not over powering, the coffee was very smooth. It did not have the bitter bite to it you sometimes end up with in some chain coffee shops. They have coffee for sale. Plenty of seating to meet up with friends, do some work, or have a date - they also have outdoor options. It is tucked into a strip mall with an Aldi’s in the same parking lot; you can grab groceries and have a great latte to enjoy at the same time. Friendly staff. I was eyeing the pastries available but opted not to try one at this time. Looking at the menu they have several options available for breakfast sandwiches - a reason to definitely visit again, though the coffee is good enough to make it a “come again” location on my list of places.
Welcoming people, relaxed community vibe - kind workers that seemed to work as 1. I didn’t know what wanted, and was guided easily as a first time customer, They asked great questions and made me a lightly sweet Ethiopian Macchiato! Just what I needed this morning. The breakfast sandwich hit the spot! It was an entire omelette folded into a sandwich. I can back later to get some beans, try the espresso and another Macchiato.
Was desperately looking for a great cup of coffee and what a find this was. The black drip coffee is so smooth. Very good service. Bought a bag of coffee to take home too. Went 4 days during my short trip.
