I always have the most wonderful experience at E61, the only authentic Greek coffee shop in St. Louis, and I cannot recommend it enough. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with such warmth and kindness by the owners, who truly made me feel like I was at home. Their hospitality went above and beyond, creating a space that felt more like visiting family than just a coffee stop.
Not only was the coffee exceptionalârich, flavorful, and authenticâbut they offered samples of their delicious kourabiedes (Greek butter cookies) the first visit with them which we loved so much. Since we loved them so much, the next visit to my surprise, they gifted my girlfriend and I a whole bag of homemade kourabiedes. This act of generosity and kindness show how much heart they pour into their business and their customers and is a rarity in today's world. The kourabiedes were incredibleâperfectly sweet and crumbly, the best I've ever had.
E61 is not just a place for coffee; itâs a place where you can find community and genuine human connection. I left with my spirits lifted, feeling deeply cared for. This shop is a gem, and Iâll definitely be back for both the incredible coffee and the heartwarming experience.
Thank you E61 đđœ and see...

They have plenty of seating for studying, offer a 25% discount for students right now, have a good amount of outlets, and have a separate seating area outside of the normal flow of traffic for coffee if you want to limit distractions.

As someone who fosters dogs, its a great indoor spot to bring them while I study for socialization and training. The more secluded sitting room would be great for reactive dogs and has a separate exit attached if needed. The owners specifically say they love it when dogs come in (and have...
   Read moreMy new favorite coffee shop in St. Louis. Honestly, my new favorite place in St. Louis! The owners and employees are incredibly kind, and the prices are startingly reasonable. The atmosphere is very well crafted, and one could spend a lot of time studying here, or socializing. Their Kormos is to die for. I have never had a better sweet from a cafe in my life. I love this place and want to see it as a fixture in the neighborhood for time to come--not only as a place where you can get incredible coffee, but also as a community hub. Please do yourself a favor...
