We went to Soulard Coffee Garden for Mother's Day and it was wonderful. The breakfast food was great - I had Eggs Benedict which was fantastic - some of the best I've ever had - and my husband had the Biscuit and Gravy which was really tasty as well... (usually a toss up between great or terrible when ordering and it was definitely great at SCG).

We had a wonderful casual brunch sipping mimosa's and enjoying food and coffee. It couldn't have been better unless we had been able to sit on the terrace or patio... which were full, unfortunately.

The first time I tried out the coffee garden the staff was incredibly short and rude with myself and my friend. Thinking it was just a fluke, I tried the place out again only to be met with the same dismissive and rude attitudes for no particular reason, including one worker that looked my friend up and down and actually rolled his eyes at her when she asked for a glass of water with our meal....what? It made us so uncomfortable we quickly left. We won't be visiting again, and I will make sure to tell my friends not to visit either. No one wants to be made to feel uncomfortable or talked about in a rude manner in a place that is supposed to be relaxed and inviting. Its a shame that two or three workers of an establishment can ruin a place that could be really great.

The food was amazing! The special that day was cornmeal blueberry pancakes that knocked my socks off and the coffee was dark and thick. The only drawback was the wait for food, but it was also Sunday morning and the place was packed. It was worth the wait, for sure.

This is a great place, but major points off for not answering their phone during business hours. Tried to call multiple days / times and no go.

Since it's a rather long drive for me, I'll be skipping this establishment as I cannot be sure they're open or not.

Very frustrating...

Coffee needs Atmosphere. This place delivers the perfect vision of a coffee bar, your choice of indoor or outdoor seating. You can also get waffles, smoothies and such. We went here for a poetry reading: the afternoon slipped away in a magical haze. Keep your mind open to who you may meet and talk to: the clientele are free spirits.
