Very nice staff, clean environment inside the 21c Museum Hotel. I don’t venture far from my standard breakfast order and I wasn’t about to today as a non-St. Louis resident. The Classic Breakfast with a cup of coffee was just the way to get the day started! Will definitely want to come back next time I’m in the 314.

It’s in a hotel so you have to find the entrance. The coffee is smooth, rich, and original. It is unbelievable, this will be a worthwhile stop if you’re a connoisseur.
The food comes from the kitchen in another room so when you order you’re not going to see the guy making your food don’t worry about that somebody is making your food haha.
The French toast is amazing, croissant sandwich is perfection, and the original breakfast is high quality and fills you up. The place is extraordinary and they are open early which is very helpful. I came here three mornings because it’s so good, there was no need to try a different breakfast spot downtown after I discovered it during the conference.
Opens at 6:30am

I had a nice experience here. The drinks were exciting and fairly priced.
The food looked kind of expensive but on par for hotel cafe.
Cozy decor and not too busy on a Sunday late morning.
Cashier was sooo sweet and my latte was out before I was even done ordering.

Utilizing credits given by the hotel allowed my partner and I to have two days of fulfilling breakfast and lunch items here, and we overall thought that the food was not bad in the most conventional way, meaning that there were no highlights but no serious points of constructive criticism, either. Most of the food resembled what we could find in a standard café.
Some of the items like the green smoothie, the yogurt parfait (not pictured), and so on were premade and available at the counter. They tasted like what one would expect them to taste like according to the ingredients included on the menu. The smoked salmon toast and the breakfast burrito both had sufficient ingredients. The cinnamon roll had enough sugar content and was a bit dry. The biggest highlights were the designed coffee. Both the lavender latte and the black walnut latte had good art and had a good balance between the coffee flavor and the sweet flavor.
We wanted to get lunch items one day but were not able to because their chef somehow winded up in the hospital, which was more than okay, but it raised the question for me about their staffing, because I would think there might be another chef available who could cook lunch items, but apparently not. While I am not certain if it’s an indication of intentional understaffing or if it’s standard restaurant practice, I do have to let people know this happened.

Friendly staff, good coffee and tea, as well as tasty pastries. We didn’t try other options, besides overnight oats (gluten free, and good!). But what we did experience was great 🙂

A true espresso shop as so needed in this area. Great cappuccino done correctly. Pastries were also delicious. Super attentive and friendly staff.
This is located inside the hotel. Just go on main door, up the stairs into the lobby and turn right.
Lots of seating.

Cute coffee shop inside a hotel! Loved the ambiance and the black walnut latte I had was fantastic. The avocado toast was decent but I wish the bread was bigger, pretty small. A bit pricey.

Had a delicious hot caramel latte and breakfast burrito. Staff was very informative and friendly. The atmosphere was modern (would have liked slightly larger tables but we made do). After we finished eating we went up to the 2nd floor of the hotel to enjoy the art galleries – saw some very cool, unique art (one made from capsules, one made from stickers, and some made from sequins). Re Parking: we did metered parking. Great experience and would recommend and return.

A Culinary & Design Gem in St. Louis: Good Press Café
This morning’s visit to Good Press in St. Louis was nothing short of exceptional—a seamless blend of thoughtful gastronomy and interior sophistication that speaks to both the palette and the eye.
From the moment you step inside, Good Press commands attention. Its interiors evoke a boutique sensibility that balances artistry, heritage, and bold modernity. With unapologetic use of luxe tones, rich textures, and an eclectic yet harmonious interplay of patterns and color palettes, the space challenges conventional design norms. As an interior designer, I found myself rethinking boundaries—this café dares to mix with purpose and style, and it does so with absolute finesse.
Equally impressive is the culinary offering. Every dish was prepared with remarkable attention to detail, and the quality of the ingredients—especially the pasteurized selections—was nothing less than a chef’s kiss. The flavors were clean, intentional, and elegant without being overstated.
And then, there’s the staff: welcoming, authentic, and refreshingly warm. Their sincere hospitality rounds out the experience, making it feel more like a curated lifestyle moment than just a casual breakfast outing.
Good Press is not merely a café—it’s an immersion into taste, texture, and thoughtfully layered design. If you’ve yet to experience it, consider this your invitation to elevate your morning. Go—linger a little longer, savor a little deeper.

Good Press Cafe is a little boutique style restaurant inside the 21c hotel in St Louis. There is no parking here, so it’s street parking or valet (insanely expensive). They have a smaller menu here, with prices being high with portions being ok. The taste is fine (green sauce for burrito is probably the best thing) but it’s not worth the prices. Service here was pretty meh, employees were nice when we ordered but then kind of disappeared and talked behind the counter the rest of the time. You have to get all your silverware and extras yourself, and are expected to bus your own table according to the employees, so make sure you don’t tip expecting service other than them bringing food to your table.
