Teaspoons Cafe

What a lovely place to get food! They are so kind and the food is absolutely to die for. I recommend anyone that is hesitating to try out this place please go. I promise you will not regret going here.

The staff were super helpful with both suggestions and making me a custom drink! They were very patient with me taking up a table for a long time period as I got some work done. Great place to go for meetings or to sit and get some paperwork done!

I called on a Monday needing lunch for 35 people that same week. They were able to get my order in, make suggestions for a few dietary restrictions and accommodate the timeframe. The food smelled so good, I went back and got my own sandwich for later!

Great place for breakfast and brunch. Super fast for for pickup, excellent service. The only thing to keep in mind is that it is on the pricier side, but it's definitley worth it as the price shows in the quality for both food and drinks. Would love to go again sometime.

Get here early for the cinnamon rolls and leave with a full stomach and energy. I like this coffee shop and the atmosphere is very nice. Not much else to say other than if you need a coffee shop with lots of drink options and delicious chai here you go.

Awesome coffee and tea. Not sure about the food but everything I saw come out looked delicious. My only complaint is the noise level for a tea house was extremely loud and the bathroom was kinda gross. We could barely hear each other over the 4 other tables in the whole place. Obviously as more people came in the worst it got. Next time I'll grab and go.

What a hidden gem! Not a fancy high end cafe. Order at counter. Friendly, helpful staff! Easy to see they put their effort and passion into their products. Absolutely delicious!

We went for breakfast and the food was very good! The quiche was made perfectly. The slices were a little small for the price. The quesadilla was great highly recommend! My iced vanilla latte was also good. The customer service needs some work. The front cashier when asked what the quiche flavors of the day were he just pointed to the sign on the counter. He was not friendly and did not give good direction. As this being my first time to Teaspoon I was not pleased with the customer service.

Genuinely one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The Teaspoons sandwich is delicious. The salad was made with super fresh ingredients and the Italian dressing was perfect.

Now, I understand why the parking lot is always so full in this strip center. This little cafe serves up an amazing little breakfast.

During the pandemic, I moved to the IL side of the river. When I lived in STL, I bought all my pet supplies and food at Four Muddy Paws, so I was thrilled that they had a store on this side of the river. When I started shopping at their store next-door to Teaspoons, parking was never a problem. Now, that the restrictions have been lifted and dine-in has resumed, parking is at a premium.

On a previous visit, I mentioned to the staff of FMP that the parking is

It had been one of my first times going to the cafe. I had only heard about the restaurant but had never taken the initiative to try it out. I was served by Maria that took the time to spark a small conversation with me. Made my overall experience wholesome and memorable. I will be returning if there continues to be staff members like her!

Teacups Cafe: another great eatery to visit right here in Edwardsville. Easy to get to. A lot of parking is available but a spot may be hard to come by during busy hours.

RESTAURANT: This cafe is quite spacious with a good amount of seating. Be cautious during busy times because seating can get scarce real quick. I feel as though a few more tables could be added. Decor is minimal but in good taste and not distracting.

STAFF: From the two baristas to the one bus boy, the workers were very pleasant and hardworking. Despite the constant flow of customers, they were managing

As a 2016 SIUE graduate, Teaspoon Cafe is a staple in all of my travels to Southern Illinois. The staff here are extremely knowledgeable about their various tea and coffee offerings. The staff are friendly and never mind recommending a drink to their customers.
I can only speak on behalf of their breakfast food, but every item on that menu is delicious and will leave you satisfied. I'd recommend the breakfast burrito with green chili sauce. It's large enough to share, but with a big appetite, one can easily finish it alone.
If you're looking for a treat to bring home, their cinnamon roll is great

We were visiting from out of town and found this place online. From the reviews and pictures I expected MUCH better quality. The Mayan mocha sounded delicious but tasted like chocolate milk with zero espresso added.
My partner received and omelet with rubbery bland eggs, even worse the filling was just kind of globbed in there and cold in spots. I ordered a plain bagel...how do you mess up a bagel??? You buy stale old bagels and semi toast them until they're a combination of overdone and underdone, to top it off....a cream cheese "spread". We would have been 1000x better off eating

Been there a couple times for breakfast and am never disappointed! Nice local spot to get brunch. Just be sure to do it before 11am!

This is the second time I've been disappointed with Teaspoons. Several months ago I ordered a caramel roll, only to discover they had mistakenly used salt instead of sugar with the cinnamon. When I called to report the issue the person who answered the phone laughed and said she'd let them know.
Today I ordered a chicken salad sandwich for lunch. There was a long piece of brown hair in it. I called to ask if the employees wore hairnets and was told "no". Well, they should. Again, person on the phone said she'd let them know.
For the price Teaspoons charges for all

Basic cafe with breakfast, lunch, pastries, a couple different coffee drinks, and a ton of different teas.

I have heard that their poppy seed dressing is made in-house and is delicious, but I came for breakfast so I got a breakfast sandwich with bacon. The sandwich was very solid.

The sandwich was prepared extremely quickly as well (it took less than 5 min) and the employees were super friendly

Good selection of teas and breakfast foods. Delicious cinnamon rolls! They need to do a bit more to decorate the space in my opinion, but I don’t love an open industrial feel and some people do.

Smells wonderful. Busy place at 8:45 a.m. A few large table of kids and adults enjoying the food and beverages. I ordered the Mayan coffee-espresso with foamed milk and Mayan chocolate. Yummy!! The bread and cookies looked delicious but I didn't indulge. They have breakfast selections. Open from 6:30 a.m-5:30 p.m. weekdays and then different hours on weekends. Staff is friendly.

Best place for breakfast and lunch! You can't miss on a lighter breakfast with their best in the Lou quiche or for a bit heartier appetite the platter or burrito. Their pancakes, French toast, omelets and breakfast quesadilla are all excellent options as well. Healthy options are done great and they will load your oatmeal or yogurt with plenty of fruit and nuts as you like. My favorite item here is the always fresh seasonal salad. Ask to add protein and it is a satisfying meal. Wraps, sandwiches and soups are all delicious and their assortment of teas are top notch and keep me coming

Well, I'm sure there's a loyal following... I'm hard pressed to say I'll be back... I was the only one in line and there was little activity in the kitchen. So I didn't expect my order to take too long. It didn't take that long... omelet, potatoes, bacon and a hot tea. Well... the tea was hot... my order didn't take long to come out, but wow was I surprised how cold the food was. I grabbed a cinnamon roll and apple thingy... honestly... didn't taste fresh...

Sorry, not on my return list...

This restaurant is very yummy, and pretty decently priced. I would consider it modern breakfast food. Since they've renovated, there is much more seating. I always get their burrito, but have also gotten their quesadillas. Great food!

I found this place thanks to yelp! I was in the mood for a new place to eat so started searching. This place popped up. I didn't even know this place was here. I have driven right by it hundreds of times! So thanks yelpers! I went in for breakfast and the reviews are spot on! What a great little place! I really love the green tea! Food was perfectly cooked and came out fast, fresh and hot! Everyone is friendly and helpful! Truly a gem and I'm so glad I finally found this place! As the saying goes; better late then never!
