Intriguing place to have a cup of coffee. We both had the mocha that were 5 star delicious. Jail cells with booths in them are very cool. Highly recommended and will be back!

I stopped in to get a cup of coffee on a rainy cold day. The first impression was how I was welcomed the moment I walked inside. I was greeted with such joy and smiles. I always check the bathrooms before I order anything to make sure they are clean. And thankfully it was. I was on short timing so was only able to grab coffee. The coffee was delicious rich and perfectly brewed. I I’ll definitely be back with some friends soon.

Literary buffs, this is the sister cafe to the Protagonist Cafe in Soulard, so set your expectations high. They specialize in fresh roast, small batch coffee, fresh baked sweets and savory pastry. The charm comes from the location; it’s housed in the beautiful art deco building that served as the Third District’s police station (1927 – 1990). Place your order at the booking desk. The cells remain intact, bars and all, to provide an incarcerating coffee experience… so good it’s criminal. As a final touch, the rear section now houses the Pieces: Board Game Bar and Restaurant.

Antagonist is such a cool spot.
It’s in this amazing old building that was originally a police station, and later an art gallery — now it’s a coffee shop with serious character. The vibe is relaxed but stylish, and the coffee is excellent. It’s roasted right there on site, and you can actually see the roaster in action. Served in real mugs with real spoons — no paper or plastic, which I loved.
I had a scone too, and it was fresh and delicious. The staff were super friendly, and we found street parking right out front.
Definitely a place I’d come back to.

Protagonist and Antagonist are some of my favorite coffee shops I’ve ever visited. They know their coffee and everything I’ve ordered has been delicious. I don’t always like to stray from the drinks/foods that I know I like, but every time I’ve tried something new here I’ve always been happy I did. Their pastries are just as delicious as their drinks.
Both places have great spaces to meet with friends, or to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. Antagonist is especially unique because most of the seating is inside of old cells, which make a great space for business meetings or study rooms.

The ube latte was perfectly balanced with just the right touch of sweetness, making it an absolute delight. Their baked goods were exceptional—rich in flavor and incredibly delicious. The cozy ambiance, complemented by the friendly and attentive staff, created a welcoming and comfortable environment. The unique jail-like decor adds a distinct charm to the overall experience. I’m eagerly looking forward to returning and exploring more of their amazing drinks and delectable treats.

Absolutely lovely atmosphere! All of the seats are super comfortable and great for studying, especially because there are a bunch of outlets to use for charging my devices. The drinks were also delicious. I will definitely be back!!

This has to be one of the best coffee houses in the St. Louis area. It was an old police station and the cells are still there. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Read the titles of the books, you may just giggle. Antagonist also houses the restaurant/bar Pieces where you can eat, drink, and play board games. They have an entire wall of them categorized. If you are looking for a nice peaceful atmosphere with excellent coffee and pastries, Antagonist Cafe is the place to go.

A very interesting experience to have a coffee in a jail cell, only ordered a cold brew but it was strong enough, no aftertaste, mellow finish.

This coffee shop is owned by the same people who own Antagonist Coffee in Soulard. It is such a great space! They roast their beans, the staff were very friendly and the environment is so unique. Working or studying in a jail cell is great! If you haven’t been hear yet you need to put it on your list to try!
