Maypop Coffee & Garden Shop — Restaurant in Webster Groves

In our search for a new coffee shop, my sister and I stumbled across Maypop Coffee & Garden Shop, and we decided to stop by one weekend. The outside appeared to be relatively unassuming, with a coffee shop on one side and a greenhouse on the other. Upon stepping inside the coffee shop building of Maypop, my sister and I were pleasantly surprised by the quaint, homey atmosphere. The multiple seats and room to chat gave the space a cozy vibe. After viewing the menu of various lattes as well as assorted baked goods, I ordered an iced chai latte with almond milk. The price was reasonable, and it tasted amazing, with a strong but perfectly sweet flavor. After a few sips, my sister and I walked over to the greenhouse with our drinks in hand.

Inside, the greenhouse was beautiful, with light streaming in through the windows and the sounds of cheerful conversations filling the air. Different plants and colorful planters took up every nook and cranny. There were tables for both sitting to enjoy your drink and to display more greenery. Again, the prices were appropriate, so I purchased an adorable string of turtles and a lovely, white, ceramic pot to put it in.

For green thumbs and beginners alike, Maypop is a great place to increase your knowledge and collection of plants, and the selection of food and drink encompasses all palettes. The unique concept of combining coffee drinking and plant shopping works wonderfully, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. I will definitely be going back there to satisfy my taste buds’ and...

I have learned that I am not fond of hibiscus tea, but I believe that is entirely my distaste for hibiscus - all in all, I was very happy with the place. Atmosphere was homey and lovely, staff was friendly and helpful and cheerful, and they have enough sense and experience to know you can't just add sugar to iced tea, but that simple syrup works fine. 😉

We took our purchases out front to nice tables with some surprisingly uncomfortable chairs, lol... there are better chairs inside. Our table was horribly crooked because one leg had lost a bolt and was not secured to the brace ring, but it seemed the only one in any disrepair. Wife had a parfait that looked awesome (see photos) and said it tasted even better. The flora were beautiful.

We went because she saw an ad for a free herb with some purchase from the coffee shop. The garden center is behind the shop, and was well furnished, nicely kept, and again, cheerful, helpful staff.

There were several herbs to choose from, in some variety of types - several kinds of basil, of Sage, etc. We also bought a thriving pathos - $44, but seems very hardy.

Go have a coffee and buy a loved...

Maypop in Webster Groves is one of those places that makes you instantly want to linger. It’s part coffee shop, part greenhouse, part cozy neighborhood hangout—and honestly, it nails all three.

The patio is gorgeous with bright yellow chairs, greenery all around, and string lights overhead. Inside, it’s full of thoughtful details: shelves of teas and pottery, local goods, and even a wall of Polaroids of visitors’ pets (such a fun touch). There’s also a designated quiet room if you want to sip and work in peace, which I love.

My latte was smooth, creamy, and beautifully done with latte art. They offer house-made syrups like honey lavender and cardamom, which makes their drinks extra special. I went in for coffee, but I already know I’ll be back for brunch and cocktails—the whole vibe is too good not to. Between the plants, the coffee, the food, and the atmosphere, this place is basically everything I need.
