Came into town to tour around route 66 for a bit.
We spotted this place from across the street and decided to stop in.
Well, we are sure glad we did!
The first thing to catch our attention was the historic feel of the building’s interior. What a great feel that takes you back to yesteryear!
We were greeted right away.
We ordered our drinks with treats (blueberry honey butter scone) (Pumpkin cake) then had a seat.
Man! Everything was amazing!
They rotate their treat menu every week so follow them on Facebook to see the current menu or just pop in and get what they have…
The coffee was so rich and delicious! We tried the hot and cold coffee drinks and they were both excellent!
The atmosphere great!
The prices are fair for the quality of the drinks!
We will definitely be back next time we are in the area!
Try the espresso FS. Awesome! They can ship it ground to your coffee system…nice
What once used to be By the Bean is now and has been for awhile Guest House Coffee and Pastries. This has been on my list for awhile now and with Emily and I heading to St. Louis to catch a flight to Colorado, it was the perfect time to get some caffeine before we embarked on a long day of traveling.
We popped in a bit before lunch and were greeted by a friendly barista. He took our order fairly quickly and then we took a seat while we waited… and waited… and waited. There was 2 people ahead of us and it took about 10 minutes for our drinks to come out and a few minutes after that to get our baked goods. I got a peanut butter cookie and Emily got a lemon blueberry thingy. Sorry, I’m not great at knowing which is which when it comes to baked goodies.
Once we got our goods, we made a beeline for the interstate. This is when I decided to their cold brew and wow… it was the punch of bitterness that I love. Sometimes places pull back on the bitter but not at Guest House. After a few sips, I tried my peanut butter cookie and found it sorely lacking. I thought it was going to be soft but it was hard, crumbly and dry. I’m not sure if they can warm them up before serving them to you but if I could’ve had that, it may have helped a lot. I eventually ate most of it but really wish I had some milk to dip it in.
I don’t remember what Emily got but she seemed to really enjoy it. As for her lemon blueberry item, she said it was dry but that’s normal for what it is. I tried a nibble and the flavor was definitely on point. It’s not something I would’ve enjoyed but she seemed to really like it.
As for the Guest House overall, I liked that they kept a lot of the decor from By the Bean. I was happy to see the doors that were previously there still there. If we weren’t trying to get our stuff and get out ASAP, the wait time wouldn’t have been a problem and with that in mind, I don’t factor it into my score. We did leave wondering why there was one guy up front and what seemed like 2 employees in the back. But that’s neither here nor there at this point.
I would definitely come back to Guest House and maybe try to see if they would warm up their cookies before devouring them.
The prices are fabulous and the coffee was some of the best I’ve had. We didn’t eat any of the pastries but they looked yummy!
