Teleo Coffee

I’m dog sitting in Kirkwood right now, so I decided to take full advantage of all the delicious restaurants around me…I found Teleo on Google and decided to give it a shot. It was delicious! The iced lavender vanilla latte was so good, but the real star was the breakfast sandwich…one of the best breakfast sammies I’ve ever had!! Still swooning over it. They even cut it into quarters for me “to make it easier to drive” since I ordered it to-go! SO thoughtful and it definitely made it way easier to eat while driving! 10/10.

Update- I am not switching my stars completely until I have had a chance to go back, but I will add one because of the response and am willing to try again. Thank you for trying to fix this. To say the least, I was very disappointed. I’ve been to this coffee shop two times before and my daughter who works at a coffee shop wanted to come again on our way through. We did I ordered the peppermint white mocha with an extra shot no toppings no foam, and they still added topping to it when I asked for her to take the whipped cream off. She actually was shocked that no topping meant no whipped cream so she spooned it off. Left a mess all over my cup and I had to finish cleaning it off and then when I took a drink, I’d asked for an extra shot and I said did you put an extra shot she said Does it say there’s an extra shot? And I said well shows it on the cup and she said well then there’s an extra shot so not that she actually knew there was an extra shot. She just said because it was written on the cup then obviously it is and I’ve had lots of coffee in my lifetime and there was hardly any taste of espresso in it when I expressed that to her, she said well we can put another shot in it, but I’ll be another dollar. And I told her no thank you and she rolled her eyes and said well do you want me to remake it of course at that point when someone is making you feel like you’re putting them out I told her forget it. And I laughed after paying $16 for two drinks. I absolutely feel like this was the worst service. and will not be coming back and I will not be finishing my coffee that I paid for which is disappointing after I had to take my daughter to the hospital because she broke her arm. And on a sidenote, my other daughter who was with me who is paying for her own drink, ordered the spicy fig drink, and she asked for it to be a cappuccino and they charged her for a latte. She still got the smaller cup got it made as a cappuccino, but got charged as a latte , which would not have been a big deal except for the entire trip was a debacle. I didn’t give it a one star because my 11-year-old Matcha was good. No issues with that and the guy at the register even though he made a pricing mistake on my other daughter‘s drink was very nice. for reference we came on Wednesday, 19th of November at around 3 PM in case you wanna know who is working

Such a cute coffee spot! The staff are the sweetest people I’ve ever met, their customer service is truly unbeatable. We tried the coffee flight and bagel sandwiches - 10/10! Hot fresh food and phenomenal flavors in the coffee. We ended up going back for seconds. Do yourself a favor and grab a chocolate chip pistachio cookie, your taste buds will thank you! Plenty of seating inside and on the front patio. Highly recommend!

Great service! Delicious coffee! Quaint little spot in a quiet neighborhood, you see families stroll their toddlers quite often if you sit outside. I also sat next to two beautiful ladies and overheard spicy gossip. Left caffeinated, entertained, and with a slightly inflated ego. Five stars.

We stopped here for drinks and the staff member who took our order was not friendly. We waited for a while for our drinks and then had to ask staff due to multiple other people who ordered after us getting their items - they apologized as they had forgot one and provided us with a coupon for a free drink on our next visit. The place was pretty packed (indoor and outdoor) and decently busy. Seems like a hotspot for college students to come study. I would go again but wouldn’t expect to get a table right away in the atmosphere. The drinks themselves were great!

Cute coffee shop that gets really busy in the morning. I came around 8:30 on a Friday and they were packed. I tried the matcha and it was pretty decent! Good spot if you can find a seat but since it gets super busy, might not be ideal for studying. Would come back if I'm around the area again.

As a coffee lover from Seattle, I’ve been to plenty of great spots—but there’s something special about Teleo. It’s got that Midwestern warmth that sets it apart. The coffee isn’t just good—it’s built around community, with a family-style vibe that makes you want to linger. Plenty of space to relax, both inside and out, and the cozy interior makes it feel like home.

Such a cute coffee shop in Kirkwood! Staff was VERY friendly. I got the honey bear latte and it was delicious! They also had a chocolate croissant that was so perfect! I'd recommend this place as nice place to relax! They had a really cute patio setup for nice days! Plenty of parking as well!

Came here on a Friday to hang out and do some work. The place is super cute and I'm glad I came. The worker, a fantastic lady with blonde hair; was super nice and answered all of my questions because this was my first time here. I got the blue drink, from what I understand is mostly just a peach lemonade with something in it that makes it blue. It was super delicious and I would recommend getting this if you like the Starbucks pink drink or refreshers. I also got a chocolate croissant which was super good as well. I'm not sure if they make baked good in house but it seemed fresh. The store is definitely religion forward in the decor - so if that's not for you, you might not want to come here. It was super cute though with lots of outside seating and free wifi. I would come again!!

Great service, didn't get to sit in. I was actually picking up an item I had ordered from Freedom & the Moon here and didn't expect to order a drink, but everyone was so nice and welcoming I jumped in. I very much enjoyed my Sunshine tea, and checking out the menu, they have a lot of options! Lots of people hanging out and working, but I needed it take a phone call so I had to run when my order was ready, can't wait to come back!

I love how welcoming they are! The patio is my favorite to sit at during a warm day. I had my bachelorette party come here during our coffee/matcha crawl and it was so fun! I just hate how small the space is! It gets crowded at the front waiting for drinks. You have to get there early or you would not get a seat. There is seating upstairs and in the main area. Their seasonal drinks are so yummy! Love all the different themes and styles they do. They have bakery and some simple food sandwich items. They have drink flights as well! So fun!

I love supporting small businesses, and this local coffee shop is really a treat! I visited for the first time during their annual birthday market with lots of local vendors. The line was wrapped around outside and took about 30 minutes to order! I tried their birthday special "L'eggo my Eggo"- an iced oatmilk latte with homemade french toast syrup. The espresso was incredibly smooth, but I didn't taste the syrup quite as much as I hoped. I've since been back to try some of their signature lattes, and they're consistently the smoothest espresso drinks and not overly sweet. A great addition to Kirkwood!

I stop in here a few times a year (my dentist is right across the street) and they always have fresh and delightful pastries. Staff is really nice and thoughtful. Inside is small, but seats 12, with more seating out on their porch- as this is a repurposed house.

Teleo Coffee has yet to disappoint! I tried the seasonal flavors and was very happy that they were not too sweet and still allowed me to taste the coffee. Don't plan on getting a spot to sit around lunch time but sometimes you'll be pleasantly surprised with a spot!

Cute coffee shop that gets really busy in the morning. I came around 8:30 on a Friday and they were packed. I tried the matcha and it was pretty decent! Good spot if you can find a seat but since it gets super busy, might not be ideal for studying. Would come back if I'm around the area again.

And just like that a magnificent cafe is serving up cozy vibes and wonderful coffee in the heart of kirkwood. I walked in on a slow saturday morning to be greeted with glee by a smiling employee. They got me set up with a delicious latte. The space is vibrant, natural, and soothing. Lots of plants and wood adorn the space to calm even the most caffeinated of patrons. Messages of love can be found throughout. This space radiates positivity! Overall, a super cool spot with legitimately good coffee as well. A fun spot that is really nice without being stuffy!

Second time at Teleo and first time remote working there! Had a matcha latte and got a muffin and a not-pictured bagel sandwich. Matcha was good, the muffin was crazy good, and the sandwich was also delicious. The staff was really nice and accommodating, too. The vibe was very cozy but I wouldn't recommend it during peak times as it can be hard to find a spot to work. However for gatherings or just grabbing a cup to go, definitely worth it. Rating this place a 4/5 cause it was good and I'd go back but it didn't blow my mind.

I stopped by Teleo for the first time to use my STL Coffee Pass. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and I ordered an iced medium (20oz) matcha latte and iced medium regular latte. With the Coffee Pass, they do a combo deal with either BOGO drinks, BOGO pastries or mix and match! There is plenty of inside seating, with WiFi and outlets for charging. They also have a nice patio out front where you can sit and enjoy your drinks, as well as an upstairs area with even more seating. I had to run elsewhere today but am really looking forward to coming back and studying here sometime!

The customer service was amazing! We got breakfast sandwiches and a pastry. All of the food was amazing and the portions were great. We also got their Christmas coffee flight hot and iced and each drink tasted great! The vibe of the whole place was very chill and cozy. A little crowded (but not overly noisy) but hey, that means it's good right?

Teleo is one of my go to spots! Everyone is always so nice and friendly, plus the bagels are to die for! It can be a little loud and hard to find a seat inside during the busy hours but the food and service is phenomenal. Their seasonal drinks are one of my favorite things including the strawberry matcha latte.

Casual and relaxing with a vibe that gives soul rest! Amazing employees and friendly guests.

Cafe was crowded. No room for waiting, not enough seating or space to order. Waited almost an hour for a pour over that was forgotten about. It was refunded and credited towards another menu item but I dont think I'll be back. Coffee wasn't good enough for the wait.

Finally made it to Teleo! It has been on my list for way too long and the wait was worth it. I ventured in on a Thursday morning with the intent to work and enjoy a nice cup of coffee for a little bit. I ended up hunkering down for a while and really got to witness the fun, wholesome staff interactions and the flow of customer traffic. Details on that below. To drink I tried a seasonal Pumpkin Delight which was...delightful! A pumpkin and vanilla latte combo that'll getcha feeling all cozy. The chocolate croissant was delicious! Soft and flaky (I would recommend eating it with a plate and napkin haha!). Before 9a is busy but from 9-12p it's the place to be! Lots of folks grabbing their order to go or snagging a table if they can. There was great modern music playing and folks are frequently chatting with their neighbors so if you prefer a quiet spot, this may not be the right fit for you. I'm so glad I visited and can't wait to make a return.

Super cute and busy spot renovated into an older house. Line out the door on a Saturday morning so you know it's the local cafe! Got a strawberry matcha that was delicious. Great price and love the outdoor seating. Heard good things about the food so we will have to try when less busy next time!

Stopped in on a weekend afternoon following a trip to a local park for some outdoor time with our little dude. Just coffee and a cinnamon roll. I had a cold brew and Daniela had an Americano. The coffee was really good, and I'm a snob. Tasty cold brew with a nice flavor profile means the beans were roasted carefully and expertly. Bonus: the upstairs room we were in had some assorted board games so we could entertain ourselves during our afternoon coffee. Good stop. Nice inside with plenty of little "nooks" to hide and read or get some work done. Highly recommended.

Great coffee! Gets super busy on the weekends. Upstairs seating also and a water canteen in the back near the restrooms. Great latte and pastry selection.

Delicious coffee and a good bagel sandwich. I also tried the cranberry orange scone and it was SO sweet that my teeth ached...

Teleo is always a nice spot to grab a coffee. It's a cozy, lovely feel with really great options. I came here last week for a meeting, and it was super busy! The space itself is pretty small, so it's easy to get packed. We sat on the patio at one of the tables, they also have tall seats with a counter like spot to sit as well. I ordered the Love Your Neighbor latte with half the syrup, as I've gotten it before and it was a bit too sweet for my preference. This was perfect and I really enjoyed it. It started to get toasty and I had a call after my meeting, I grabbed my stuff to go inside. All tables were full, which is fine, so I went back outside and took a seat. The WiFi doesn't work well on the patio, so keep that in mind if you're doing work, you'll most likely have to sit inside for a solid connection. Next time I come I want to get one of the espresso/ latte flights!

Teleo is the cutest coffee shop tucked between homes near downtown Kirkwood, they have wonderful indoor and outdoor seating. They are counter serve and then you get a buzzer for when your food is ready, or your name is called for your drink. The employees are super kind. They have a nice sized menu with options for everyone and always have seasonal drink specials going on. They also have Teleo gear and local jewelry and other things available for purchase. I got the iced latte - very good and really liked the glass it came in, super cute. The sandwiches (both breakfast and turkey pesto) were on the smaller side and (I thought) pricey for their size, but still very good! The creamy pesto was delicious! We also got the strawberry matcha scone (probably seasonal), which was very tasty - not too sweet and the strawberry glaze on top added the perfect amount of sweetness!

I'm always up for trying a new to me coffee shop! I especially like to try independent cafes. This was my first time to Teleo. I really like the vibe! I believe it's an old house that has been converted. There's seating inside and on the front and back porches. The AC was really chilly so we opted to sit at a table on the front porch. The staff also seem to be very friendly and efficient. My husband and I each ordered a latte. We both wanted a bagel sandwich. The majority of their breakfast and lunch menu items are served on a bagel. They were out of bagels at 9:00 AM. I don't get it all. There are stores and bakeries where they could get more, but no. No bagels. So we ordered a frittata. Our lattes were brought out to us first. They tasted good but were not very hot at all. I would say they were warm. Our frittatas were tiny, but hot. My husband's was slightly undercooked and mine was slightly overcooked. I really wanted to like this place. I won't be going back.

This is a very cute little coffee shop located in what looks like a home within a slightly residential area on the outskirts of Kirkwood. It has a beautiful outdoor patio as well as an upstairs kids section available for those who want to bring their toddlers to hang out for some morning or afternoon fun. They have a variety of options on the menu, including some unique flavors like lavender, and lots of hot and cold options. I have not yet tried any bakery items, but they do look very delicious perched on the counter in front of the cash register. I do find it a bit odd and not quite sure what they mean by being a Christian coffee shop, but I'm sure that goes over well with the demographic here. All in all a very cute place to meet up for a coffee date with a friend or neighbor.

This is THE CUTEST coffee shop in all of STL. The service, decor, the lively deck, relatively quiet area upstairs, and small kid's playroom upstairs make this a great community gathering place. I've been here during the week and weekend and it is a busy place no matter what time you go so be prepared to wait. Don't worry the service is great and they are hustling, it's just small and busy especially on a nice sunny day. Their food options are limited, but everything I've gotten here is absolutely delicious! I've previously enjoyed their homemade bagel bites and most recently a pesto turkey sandwich. For non-coffee drinkers, their drink options are varied and delicious!

Good selection of coffee. Nice to offer gluten free items. I enjoyed my frittata.. Playroom upstairs. Patio/porch seat.

I can't wait to come back and have a coffee at this place! I had to take mine to go and it was super tasty! I got the honey bear latte and it had lots of flavor! Staff was really nice and I liked the bright vibes had. I am looking forward to coming back soon!

Nice workers, but came in on a busy day, waited 30 min for my iced latte and bagel only got my bagel before I asked for a refund because I had to go to work. Mind you I placed a to go order and still had to cancel half of it. They were nice and gave me 2 free drink cards. Came back this morning, super slow only a couple people inside, just waited another twenty minutes for my iced latte, as a fellow barista for a small coffee shop, it should never take longer than 2-10 minutes depending on how busy to make an iced latte. Wild. Won't be returning. Sad bc I like their espresso but as someone who likes to grab and go this is not the place for you!

2 years later and I still frequent Teleo. The coffee is always good as well as their breakfast options. This past time I went I got a cheddar and chive scone. The scone was very good it was not super dry and went well with my coffee!

I come to Teleo about 2-3 times/year and usually have a very pleasant experience! I love the different coffee flights they do around the holidays, so if that's an option I always get it. On my most recent trip I got the Christmas/holiday flight of warm coffees and I enjoyed them all! I always come here with a small group of mom friends so we can take advantage of the upstairs playroom, but the past couple times we've come it's just been unbearably packed! It did clear out after about 30-40 minutes and we were able to spend a little time in there before we left. I'm not sure that anything can be done about that, but it can be slightly stressful to navigate around the store with as busy as it gets. I also wish that the kids playroom was a little cleaner, but I'm overall so thankful there's a spot that we can use for kids while we have our coffee.

I love Teleo! I usually go once a week and do order pick up. The staff is so friendly and the coffee is so good! I love their seasonal menus. I usually get the breakfast sandwich, but the chocolate croissant is a close second as a favorite!

Purchased seasonal Sweater Weather drink. A great blend of Vanilla and brown sugar. First time here, lovely staff patiently helped my husband and I pick a drink. Great customer service. I will definitely be coming back.

This place is super cute. It's pretty small, but they have outdoor seating if it's nice out. The workers were really nice. I got a chai and turkey pesto sandwich and both were really good! The bagel is a little small, but it was worth it. My friend got the seasonal butter beer coffee and breakfast sandwich and liked both of them. Would recommend!

I'm very particular about my coffee and am pleased with the quality of my latte. I really regret not getting a treat and will definitely return to give it a better analysis. The lavender vanilla latte was not as weird as I originally imagined but I am looking forward to what other options they have. Teleo is close to my work so I'll make a stop by to give it some sampling.

nice baristas! they have a large assortment of drinks and treats. including non coffee drinks! i came on a monday at 10 am. super loud and busy. all seating was taken besides outdoor, they had a decent amount on their main level and upstairs. they have a private room and a room for kiddos! this business looks like it is run out a house, so the spacing is a little odd, but they def made the most out of it. it gives this coffee shop a charming and homey vibe the blue drink is so so so so good. i think it just tastes like blue lemonade! the pricing here is typical for a small coffee shop without tip my drink was $7 lots of parking! street and a lot in the back

i will say i saw the coffee flights on insta and HAD to make a trip to teleo coffee. i didn't realize it's literally a coffee shop inside of a quaint house. i ended up getting the iced flight with a lavender vanilla latte, pumpkin delight and a mini on monroe latte. all three were delicious i think my fave was the lavender latte. the syrup paired very well with their espresso and you can tell that the lavender syrup is homemade. i would rec bringing a sweatshirt as it is quite chilly on the first floor. my study blanket made an appearance today

Out of towner here. Love trying new coffee shops. This one tops the charts as one of the best I've ever been to! The bagels are phenomenal! & the honey bear latte was delicious! We were only in St. Louis for 3 days and came back each morning Highly recommend!

I always stop by Teleo cafe when I'm in the area. This coffee shop is adorable and service has been phenomenal. My go to order is the Iced Lavender Vanilla Latte- AMAZING!!! The Honey Bear is good too, just I'm not a big fan of cinnamon. It's tough to get a seat sometime, especially in the weekend they are packed!!! They have a nice playroom upstairs which is perfect for families with younger kids. Highly recommended!

teleo you just blew my mind. i didn't know your matcha game was this good. now i know the color could be deeper, but trust me when i say this is a well balanced and flavored matcha. i tried their birthday drink (strawberry matcha) and ive had their normal matcha. both were divine. the cashier was super enthusiastic and sweet, and the entire place was so homey. i WILL be back for more. i'm very impressed with how they stay on season

Sweet patio with six tables and rail seating. Lots of interior seating too and friendly staff. The caramel macchiato is superior to Starbucks! Will be back!

Love this sweet place! It's my go-to cafe when I visit Kirkwood/Webster Groves. We own a cafe and I feel at home here. Friendly Baristas and yummy seasonal drinks. Pro tip: ask Barista their fav

The service was quick and friendly. The atmosphere is VERY comfortable and cozy! The price for my latte, which was mediumish IMO, was over $7. Ridiculous if you ask me. It was good, but not worth $7!

Coffee was good but food was just okay. Great ambiance and nice outdoor seating BUT I had an issue with my pager. I sat outside and started noticing everyone behind me in line was getting their food. Finally went inside to check, my food is sitting on the counter getting cold, and staff said my pager wasn't working. Thats fine but why not open the pick-up window to outside and look for me?

This is a great coffee spot in Kirkwood! Located in a renovated home, right off of the main downtown street, Teleo has lots of coffee and food options. I was so excited to try one of their latte flights. It did not disappoint! I also enjoyed a breakfast bagel sandwich. The service was lovely. Since the weather was nice, we decided to enjoy the patio seating. Overall the visit was great and we will definitely be back to visit when we are in St. Louis next.

The food was so tasty and was the perfect amount! The drinks were incredible and there were so many good options! We sat outside and it was the perfect day for it. The workers were so kind too! And they give out pup cups!

A cute coffee shop in Kirkwood! It has a small lot behind and to the side of the building, but there is also street parking. Inside is a pretty decent sized space, but can become crowded quickly during rushes. It can get pretty backed up waiting for coffee and food, but I think it's worth it! Limited indoor and outdoor seating, but a nice interior. They have a decent selection of pastries: I had their pumpkin bread and a winter scone (rosemary and another herb with a vanilla bean glaze). Their holiday drinks are tasty and fun creations! They offer coffee flights which makes trying their coffee a bonus.

Teleo Coffee has it all! Beautiful decor, delicious coffee and wonderful food! They make their own bagels and they are delicious. The service is always on point! They roast their own coffee and make their own syrups. Everything is top tier!

We went on a Saturday morning around 9am. They were bustling but there were plenty available seats. There is inside and outside seating out front. We tried a chai tea and a yogurt parfait (see pic). Both were good. The parfait was good and enough to share. There were lots of people with dogs and kids. It was lovely.

Cute coffee shop that provides many options to pick from. The parking is a little less than ideal if it is packed is the only concern.

The food is absolutely stunning. Never go wrong here. The drinks?! To die for! I love how friendly the service is and I love that there's an order ahead option. There's a little window outside so you can skip the line. It's a perfect spot to grab coffee with a friend or work for the day and then walk a little further into downtown Kirkwood.
