Welcome to Ivy Cafe

“ Literally cannot say enough good things about this cafe!! The drinks are delicious, the food is wonderful, they have so many wonderful made-in-house items from their bread to their fresh baked pastries to their syrups for the coffee/drinks it is just the absolute best curation of goodies! We LOVE their sliders which come on their house-made sourdough and have enjoyed working through their cocktail menu. Even the plates the food is served on are made by the owner herself I definitely recommend a stop by this cafe any time of day for the perfect treat ”

“ A cozy and charming café with incredibly kind and courteous staff. The menu is diverse and delicious, and the coffee is great too. We first visited in 2023 and recently returned — they’ve maintained the same lovely atmosphere, warm hospitality, and tasty food. We enjoyed breakfast, a muffin, and coffee. The café has such a lovely vibe, and everyone there greets you with the warmest smiles and so much kindness. Lilly, Jane, and Christian were amazing — super quick, sweet, and so friendly! I think Ivy Charming Smile would be the perfect name for this place — it totally fits their energy! ”

“ Ivy Cafe has become a regular weekly stop! Their lattes are amazing, with awesome seasonal specials (and the coffee cubes a must), plus I never leave without a muffin or almond cookie when ordering from the bar/counter. The atmosphere when you walk in immediately invites you to stay and is super cozy, great for when you want a place to work outside of the office or are catching up with a friend. The team is always super friendly and the food is always delicious! ”

“ One of the most beautiful and cozy brunch and dinner spots. Went twice, once for Clayton Restaurant week and again for brunch with the girls! The food blew me away both times, the presentation was so prettyyy. They were able to accommodate our larger group and we are so grateful for the magical morning and yummy brunch ”

“ I came here with a friend who works in the horticulture field because I knew she would love all the plants (even in the restrooms), but the food blew our minds. I had no idea what a tartine was, but then I couldn't choose if I wanted a savory or sweet one for breakfast. We came in right at 8 on a Saturday when the streets of Clayton were still quiet. We were seated right away and stayed a little over an hour. I'd like to come back and try their afternoon and evening menu, but the breakfast menu also had a lot to offer. ”

“ Highly recommend Ivy Cafe!! One of my favorite places in STL. Breakfast, Lunch, and dinner are all amazing. Great staff and owner! Patio is dog friendly & my mini golden doodle, Blu, loves stopping by on Saturdays. Love this place ”

“ The freshness of the unique assemblage of ingredients is the best thing about ivy cafe! I still think about how well the beats, white bean hummus, and goat cheese complimented each other on the Kingsbury tartine. I think the menu could be condensed a bit as it was overwhelming making a choice with so many yummy sounding choices available. Maybe there could be a tartine sampler dish?? ”

“ We were driving home from out of state and found this upscale cafe. I’m so glad we came here! The food selections are amazing, healthier options and unique! There is an abundance of coffees and wines. The hostess who seated us went well and above expectations for friendliness and was very informative about their menu options and made great recommendations. Her customer service was outstanding and wonderful to have since customer service is rare these days. All the waiters tag team their table service and they were all very helpful, friendly and spot on. The food was excellent. We had the tartines and tomato soup and lattes. We will definitely be coming back!! ”
