Half & Half
8135 Maryland Ave, Clayton, MO
Crema's Take
“Half & Half is a beloved Clayton brunch destination where the kitchen takes breakfast seriously, crafting standout dishes like ham and Gruyere omelettes and ingenious stuffed French toast alongside creative surprises like breakfast fried rice and matcha lattes. The intimate, neighborhood feel—where staff greet regulars by name and strangers with genuine warmth—makes it the kind of place where you'll want to linger over coffee and conversation, whether you're meeting a friend or treating yourself on a weekday escape.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

I'm giving a 5 star mainly for the delicious matcha latte and blackberry cheesecake stuffed French toast. Eggs, bacon, and the breakfast potatoes were great also. The breakfast fried rice is also a must try if you visit! My only complaint was that they had plenty of chairs…
