Meshuggah Cafe - University City

One of the best sandwiches we have had in STL, lemonade tastes homemade/fresh. Not only that but the service was top notch, I needed some special changes to the sandwich for health reasons and the found a way to accommodate a very picky order which I greatly appreciate. Very nice staff, great atmosphere inside and on the patio. Will definitely go again. Dog friendly

Great food. Like really spectacular. The vegetables on my bagel were so fresh I thought they came directly off the vine and onto their cutting board! If you want a great fresh, crisp breakfast, treat yourself. I brought breakfast back to my wife, in bed at the hotel. So it is a fairly short walk from The Moonrise Hotel if you are in town for a concert like we were. This is a one off place. So this is it's only location. Don't miss it and go to a national chain place. Live a little.

My mom and I stumbled across this absolute gem when we were visiting the area last month. Their bagels are out of this world. My mom devoured the regular plain bagel with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and capers; which she said was as good if not better than what she has had in New York. I have a gluten allergy, so decent, let alone edible bread products are hard to come by these days. Well my fellow gluten-free foodies, look no further for the most epic gluten-free bagel that will ever grace your taste buds. Their smoothies were also fresh and delicious. So if you're in the area I highly recommend this place if you enjoy eating excellent, fresh food.

Looking for a hearty breakfast and well made coffee to set me up for full day on the Loop and surrounding area, and this place hit it on both. Had the Bruno on everything bagel with extra bacon and it was chock full…maybe even over generous on the eggs, but I was happy about that. Chilled atmosphere made even better by the eighties tunes they put on whilst I was there.

Great grub and coffee. My favorite coffee shop on the loop!
