Got my biscuit on

Sunday brunch menu. Biscuit sandwich, with a side of biscuits and gravy….yes, please. I’m a sucker for biscuits.

These were pretty great, I liked that the sandwich used fried tofu instead of an egg replacement and the sausage was flavored well. Biscuits and gravy was good, not great, maybe a little too sweet for me? But I did, basically, lick the plate clean

Got some hybrid pastry thing to go for my hotel/road tomorrow and a peanut butter cookie I haven’t tried yet.

Man, the cinnamon rolls were tempting. Looked huge and delicious. Tons of frosting etc. they were flying off the shelf. And def vegans and non-vegans alike from my line convos.

Nice space, good vibe too. Rounded up from
4.5.

Pros: Biscuits, Vibe, Options

Incredible and kid approved

Everything we ate was simply amazing. Maya Angelou Plate was huge and tasty. Kids loved the chickn, fries and Mac n cheese. The massive cinnamon roll, caramel pound cake and cupcakes were some of the best I’ve ever had. It was all pretty affordable!

Pros: Food, Desserts, Great vibe

Cons: I ate too much!

Nice place, good food, affordable

I liked the ambience of this place. I also liked there was vegan savory options as well as sweet in one day. Some things I noticed people ordered alcohol so if you were into brunch this place would be perfect #Veganuary

Pros: Food options, Ambience, Price

Epic Food!

This place has the BEST vegan Mac n cheese I’ve ever had in my life. I absolutely loathe vegan MNC normally, but after reading some reviews, my partner and I decided to split the Maya Angelou bowl. It came with MNC, friend chicken and a kale salad. The MNC was flawless. The kale salad was extremely tasty, and very interesting. I think it has some sort of miso dressing, and it’s unique. The fried chicken batter was gorgeous, but my one complaint was the soy chicken they use. It’s pretty bland and tastes a little weird, but the batter they use does make up for this. It was overall delicious. At almost $19 for the bowl, it was a little pricey, but when split between two people it worked out well. The aesthetic of the place is lovely and I was very happy to be able to support a loud and proud black-owned business. 10/10 will be back every time I’m in SL. Highly recommend!

Pros: Food, Atmosphere

Cons: Price

Delicious fried “chicken”

My partner and I (who is not vegan) both had and loved the Maya Angelou bowl which is fried chicken (or cauli bites) with Mac n cheese and kale salad.
Huge portion, had to get some in takeaway container.
You seat yourself, order at counter, and help yourself to water and plastic forks (no knives). Is this an American thing plastic throwaway cutlery for eating in? Not nice to eat with, not to mention not environmentally friendly, and hard to eat with! You also need to take your dishes up to the rubbish/area where water is which I also find odd.
The delish food outweighs these odd things though

Worth It

Heard about this place on Netflix’s Fresh, Fried, and Crispy. It was one of my main reasons to visit STL and it does not disappoint. The Chikn is crispy and breaded to perfection. Don’t know how they do it but it really does taste just like chicken.
Update: returning 2 years later for dinner. The shiitake sandwich is incredible. The chips however are a bit salty and stale. Overall, still a great place though.

Pros: Fast, friendly service, Staff says everything is vegan now

Highly recommend

We came here twice! The cupcakes and pastries we tried were all great. Came back for lunch. I had the Maya Angelou plate. I loved the kale salad and Mac. The breading on the “chicken” tenders was delicious. Ky husband got the daily special burger and fries. I wish they had one or two kid items, because the entres are a little pricey. But it was all delicious.

Pros: Location , Good quality , Nice space

Don't miss this St Louis treat!

We just left and I am already salivating for more.

The staff person was so kind and friendly. Always nice.

We sgtarted by splitting a pecan cinammon roll. Every bite was bliss.

Then I had the Maya Angelou plate, with chiken strips and mac n cheese. Perfection. I also had the buffalo sauce. I almost couldn't finish my plate.

Check out the restroom for contemplative quotes.

Eating here was like being in sanctuary.

Pros: Pecan cinnamon roll, Awesome choices, Super kind staff

Top-tier desserts

Everything I ordered was so good! The cinnamon bun was incredible. The Boston cream cupcake was delicious but a bit crumbly. I wish I’d had a chance to try their savory dishes as well.

Very YUMMY 🤤

We ordered a bunch of stuff then went back for sweet treats. They were really accommodating to me because I have a weird food allergy and made a substitution so I could order.

It was very busy lunch time but food came very fast if you see our plates are empty.

Pros: Everything , Cupcakes , Millionaire bar

Cons: Nope

Best cinnamon rolls ever

The pastries are where it’s at here. The big momma cinnamon roll is the best cinnamon roll I think I’ve ever had. Their coffee and regular food is just okay.

Completely fantastic!

Everything has been fantastic!
I'm partial to the Zora Neal Hurston as someone who appreciates Eatonville, FL and Zora, but also because it's just damn delicious, but you can't go wrong.
The staff is friendly and the atmosphere has a great vibe.
I enjoy riding my bike there but parking nearby is usually not that bad. I'm always looking for another opportunity to go back for sweets or a meal.

Pros: The food is great, All the food is great, Friendly staff
