Reviews of Russell's Cafe & Bakery (Bakery)

Sammie Zoghby

Very delicious. Everything tastes very fresh and home made. The biscuits were scrumptious. We also loved the bakery items. Great place for breakfast, lunch, or dessert!

Natasha Seidl

Great lunch and breakfast place! Different take on several traditional dishes. Highly recommend the cinnamon roll! It's the size of a half loaf of bread... Definitely can be shared with the table. Also the biscuits and gravy is one of my favorites!

Matthew Shattuck

The aroma of the food was unbelievable. The service recieved was like they have always known you, everyone is regular. The food is exquisite and delightful. The restuarant was clean and welcoming. Thank you Russell's Cafe and Bakery for a good experience.

Janice Smith

Russell's in Fenton much better!!

Harvey Bolyard

The food was really good. Just a little on the expensive side.

Susan Kutner

Menu was very extensive. Also items can be made to your choice. Our order was delivered very quickly to our table. Food was delicious. Surroundings were clean and neat. Will definitely return soon and will try their desserts. Had a sample of one, heavenly.

Rob Armey

Been here multiple times, never disappointed. Great food and service. Now they serve beer, drinks which is an added plus. Highly recommend Russell's. Employees here are friendly and make you want to come back.

Geraldine Smith

Very friendly

jorge tres

Friendly staff, excellent quality food

Robert Whitney

The food was good, but I didn't think the value was there.

Daniel Lalor

Always a treat, great atmosphere! Great good, interesting clientele if you are a people watcher. Very interesting and original options, vegetarian/ vegan options.

Mike dailey

I've been here a couple times now. Food is expensive and very bland. Grilled chicken has no seasoning and salads are always under-dressed. Would never recommend this place.

Allyn Albritton

Delicious, friendly staff, comfortable

Pat Lacey

Great new place here. Breakfast and lunch. Food locally sourced, they bake their own breads, of course. Generous portions. Staff dressed nicely and friendly. One part dining... order and they bring to table. One part bakery...yum! Cost was upper end, but worthwhile.

Kelly Knott

Delicious food. The pot pie soup and biscuit is unlike any I have ever had. Soooooo good.

jeff dewes

I was running late and decided to stop in for a scone or something for breakfast. They have a trainee on the cash register and a person helping her take a large order for a family. As I’m waiting another customer comes in, orders from Sarah at the pastry counter where they don’t have a cash register. She gets the customer a pastry and takes it over to the incredibly slow cashier ahead of me. I left. I don’t know if their food is good, but you better have all day to find out.

Leon Styles

The ladies at the counter were so sweet and patient with is. It was our first time and I asked her to tell me the cake flavors multiple times. She never got annoyed or frustrated, just kept saying them. We got 3 gigantic slices of cake and two brownies and it only cost us 24 bucks! Reasonable prices, excellent service, amazing cakes!!!

Brendan Denney

The food is great, my wife got French toast. The French toast comes with syrup, lemon curd and whipped cream. I got the Cuban sandwich which isn't super traditional (they use whole grain mustard not yellow) but its flavor is fantastic.

Linda Rostron

Good food and great desserts

William Shaw

Nice change in foods. Guess butter cake excellent

Steyr Aug

Great place and they serve drinks!

Jason Gilbert

Amazing breakfast hash!

Izzy h

It was great

Shubha Subbarao

First visit to this place for lunch. Was not sure of vegetarian options. But the friendly staff suggested a Grilled Squash sandwich, which was tasty! We also enjoyed a salad with apple slices, candied walnuts and cranberries. The chips were tasty. All in all, we were stuffed with good food. Great neighborhood addition!!

Hycintia rani Subash

Great pastries and ambience. Very spacious for a breakfast/brunch place.

Kitryn Marie

Unique and savory. Lovely varieties!!

Rachel Taylor

Great experience, expertly cooked fresh ingredients with outstanding coffee. A little pricey, but they are using quality products so its justified.

Michelle Kunin

Good food in a little strip mall. Prices were slightly high for breakfast. Some nice different items for breakfast. Friendly staff.

Barbara Rubin

Good food. Accomadating. Family and young adults customers

Jakki Taylor

Fantastic as always!

Brittney Gerhardt

Beautiful open space with awesome food and delicious sweets and treats. Try the cinnamon gooey butter cake!

Elaine Richardson

Great place, friendly atmosphere, interactive staff. Signature chocolate cake was one of the best desserts I've ever experienced. I highly recommend.

Mary Daus

Even though there was a line the time goes fast. Food was delicious. People are very helpful.

Laura Platt

Food was okay but very expensive for counter service. Steak and eggs was $21 And you have to stand in line to order and pay for it at a counter. I ordered coffee ($2.95) with my meal and had to walk halfway across the restaurant to refill it at the coffee station. Will deliver food to your table but that's the limit of any service. I will not return as I can get better food and full table service for less.

George Friesen

Great food and service. This was our first visit and I’d say Russell’s is the best by far in the deli/bakery marketplace

Lucy Lu

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and DELICIOUS breakfast hash! I drove pass this gem so many times but glad that I finally went in for a nice Friday brunch. Amazing place! Will definitely come back!

Joel Beck

1st time there, we had breakfast. Had a very good selection of foods. Portions were good size. Even had mimosas there. Food was very good. Help was very friendly & the place was clean. Their bakery goods were huge. Definitely would have to share. The only keeping me from giving them a 5, was their pricing is a little high. Would definitely go back.

Steven Garcia

I would like to have my own "From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler" at this restaurant. But the only mystery I would be solving is how much breakfast one man can eat before being rendered completely immobile.

Diana Jones

Club sandwich was good.

Crissy Leen

Omg!! Is this place real?! Everything fresh and delicious. And when you talk about the desserts, as the friendly lady describes, you dream about having a bite of each. We had lunch so we choose a rosbife Sandwich which was so tasty, and the amazing pear salad. When the time to select a dessert came I knew I had to be back. This time I had the flourless chocolate cake. The ambiance is clean and modern and their team so welcoming. Will be back to try their huge breakfast options

Shawn Schmidt

Russell’s has some of the best bakery foods around. I never visit without enjoying their coffee and biscuits. The biscuits are in fact the best at any restaurant around here. I also try a new flavor of gooey butter cake with each visit and haven’t had a bad slice yet.

Martha Menner

Cakes desserts cookies and food are all excellent

Joe Burke

Great food!!

Dennis Forquer

Great breakfast and stellar espresso! Service was prompt and staff very friendly. Had the breakfast veggie wrap and a latte. Great start to the weekend! A+

Jonathon Marjamaa

The French toast is great. We also really like the cinnamon rolls.

Kathy Glaser

Good food, very high prices, have to get up to refill your own coffee!!

Paige Herbst

My boyfriend and I decided to try this gem out for Sunday brunch, and it was the best!-like ever!!!We went in, ordered, and sat at the bar. I was very impressed with how hard the chefs were working and they had extra staff double checking tickets and organizing plates as they came out. Whoever that man was deserves a raise! He was ensuring timely responses for food and directing both the chefs and waiters. (But he was not the manager!) Anyway, the food was super good too! We started with the cinnamon roll, as pictured, and shortly after came our food. He had the hash and I had the scrambled egg grilled cheese with a French Vanilla Latte. The grilled was very refreshing with the tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. The latte was served at a perfect temp (not boiling and not cold). Also, I always love when the barista spends a little extra time and draws a picture with the milk!! 10/10!!!

Michael Hampton

Wow some of the best flavored food I had in a while for breakfast!

Jackie Carr Swinnie

Had lunch, it was just okay

Sarah Flamion

Amazing food, great service, clean restaurant.

Pierre Yves Leclef

Put your prices on the menu. Nice place, great menu and the food was excellent and service was great. However, their coffee was not good at all, one actually tasted horrible to me. Apart from the coffee, great place to visit.

Alex Van de Riet

A nice menu of sandwiches, breakfast items (French toast, granola, hashes, etc), salads, and a few soups. I haven't had any of their bakery goods but there are a lot to choose from and they all look great! The service is also friendly and the food comes out at a reasonable speed

Clayton Nesslein

Great food! Very impressed.

Anthony Lawrence

This place is amazing! Food is incredible! Coffee is incredible, not sugar water garbage like other places, actual REAL coffee! Prices may seem high, but you get what you pay for, and actually makes eating out seem worth the expense.

Kate Schuetzenhofer

So delicious and cozy! Love it here.

Eric Musial

Fantastic fresh foods!

Dominic Bornman

Awesome service, ability to sit outside, and great food!

Richard Lozano

Love this place.

Paul Millidge

Pizza for breakfast!! Amazing flatbread breakfast pizza... Not your usual crust..thin kinda like a biscuit...tomatoes..cheese..eggs..spinach and more. Paired with Highlander Grog coffee...Perfect!! I wish I had room for desert!!

Brendan Wood

Quaint dining with good food, will be back.

Roberta Mueller

Good replacement (used to be a Panera here). Great bakery products, lunch items and coffee. Clean, modern decor. Friendly staff. Ample parking.

Gary Rundblad

A cut above eatery.

JoAnn Woods

Another favorite for me. I came for lunch, sat outside on a nice day, and stopped to buy a delicious pastry on my way out.

Heidi Shepard

Great food and a fun look inside

Allan Gardner

Good food. Average service.

Matt Gourley

Awesome food and great place to relax for brunch.

Vin Miller

A nice place to eat breakfast or lunch. Sometimes gets a bit busy. Good decore and atmosphere

Sophia Butler

Delicious food and large portions. The a jolla toast was awesome and a great size for avocado toast. Salads are wonderfully fresh and filling. Price is good when compared to quality and size

Heather Budde

One of my favorite low key places for breakfast/brunch. Many options for traditional breakfast, salads, lunch and a delicious bakery - if you ever need a cake for an event don’t think twice, just get the Russell’s chocolate cake and it’s a winner! Wish there were a few healthier options, maybe with egg whites, but overall we love Russell’s! Breakfast flatbread shared with a salad is a delicious option!

Scott Perrier

I would recommend this place. It has a new version modern country sheik. The staff is friendly. The food is upscale soup, salad, and sandwiches done delisciously. The bakery was even better. They are only open until 3pm, so no dinner for you.

Martin James

Good French Toast

Alexandra Rivera Rivera

Let me tell you about this place! The COFFEE IS BUNKERS! AND THAT CINNAMON ROLL IS GIANT! It was great for a date of two, we ate it all and had an amazing conversation in a very relax and friendly space! Definitely going again to study and drink coffee, maybe order some lunch afterwards!

Joseph P. Porter

Crowded, but the baked goods are some of the best in the area. They also have gluten free products.

Joseph Ritchie

The best breakfast dishes.

Daniel

Russell's serves fresh elevated cuisine in a cafe-style atmosphere. It is generally some of the best food you'll find in West County. Unfortunately it can be hit or miss. I ordered the Maple glazed chili chicken which attempts to be an upscale version of chicken and biscuits. It was seventeen dollars and was an appropriate portion for the price. However the dish came with some bitter greens wetted with a sweet vinegar sauce. This was placed next to the two country biscuits which naturally soaked up that vinegary water ruining the biscuits. The chicken was mostly bland with a sweet relish on it. The greens were most likely meant to compliment the chicken but failed due to poor plating. Moreover the palate was different than the description on the menu as there was no detectable chili or maple flavor.

Timothy Lamothe

Outstanding food with a wide menu variety in a very friendly and themed atmosphere.bwould highly recommend for famil and business get togethers.

Sandra Sullivan

When are you going to build a store in st. Charles county? I love everything on your menu.

Chris Wisbrock

First experience getting lunch there today. Superfriendly and food is amazing. Will absolutely visit again. Hey and they even have Gooey Butter Cake. . . can't beat it!

Eric Lightner

Food is a mixed bag but the place looks great I'm hoping I like it more next time I visit if I do I will add a star

Beth Miller

What a great place! Great food, good-sized portions, happy employees and good atmosphere. They have menu items that you won't find at many other places and I love the fact that they use local farms for their ingredients. I will definitely be going back.

Geraine Willoughby

1st time at this new location. Happy to report & food were just as excellent as all of my experiences at the Fenton location. I was surprised at how spacious the location is & the decor is really nice.

Jason Watkins

Took my sister and her family here for a great breakfast. Ordered the steak and eggs and it was huge! Food tastes very fresh and “clean” so it feels like your eating healthy. You order at the counter and then they bring the food to your table. It was pretty busy when we were there but came in, ate, and left. So tables were not an issue. I had the breakfast burrito a couple times now and it was great!

Margaret Miller

I love Russell's, it's my go to brunch spot. Amazing food and very generous portions. The cinnamon roll is to die for!

Heidi Gioia

Fabulous!

Jessica Roberts

Vincent Daus

Good food, outstanding service, very friendly staff.

Ernest Last

Great food and service. Only negative it's a bit pricey.

Lynn Hunt

Second time here, first time was good, but this time we came because my wife specifically wanted French toast. We arrived at 11:40, they serve breakfast until 3pm, and after we paid we were advised they were out French toast for the day! About 10 minutes later two ladies ordered the same thing, I assume from a different cashier, and weren't told until they were sitting down they had to choose something else! High prices require better service. Hello, it's a BREAKFAST & lunch place! The ladies behind us ordered salads to eat in, they brought them in a to go box. When they said they were not carryout, they brought 2 salad bowls, put them on the table and walked away, leaving the ladies to pour the boxes into the bowels.

WayneR Luedke

Simply a wonderful breakfast with very nice people. Drove by for a couple years since I moved to the area without stopping in. My loss!

Chris Flanigan

My wife and I used to frequent the Macklin's location for breakfast. We moved out of the city a couple of years ago and decided to (remembered to) make it back. We both had sandwiches and a salad. The food and service were both amazing. We sort of renewed our enthusiasm by coming back - expect us again and again!

Tracey Rocchio

very fresh food loved it

Chloe Colbert

Food was delicious. Atmosphere and setting were very inviting. Coffee was amazing bc it was Kaldi's.

Mark Fischer

Although food was just as great as the original one I still like the ambiance of the one on Macklind.

Brian S

Don't miss out on the cinnamon roll the size of your head. Breakfast sandwiches were great! Long line to order at the counter on the weekends but they handle finding you a table to sit at and the line moves quick. Cold brew and numerous other morning caffeine delights are available.

Barbie Trapp

Great frosted cookies & cut potatoes!

Vince Zimmermann

The cinnamon roll is to die for! Feel free to share. Highly recommend the biscuits and gravy, and the bacon is perfect in everyway possible. Nice atmosphere, and a friendly staff rounds out a delightful dining experience.

Rasil Alwusaydi

I love this coffee shop, they have the best coffee in the town and good choices of desserts

Lisa Highsmith

The best cinnamon rolls in St. Louis. Big as a grapefruit. Big enough for two people. I force myself to eat the whole thing.

Tina Crist

Great breakfast!

Erin O'Loughlin

Love all three locations! Love the Kaldis coffee and they will make a salad to customize it to your preferences. A perfect place to grab dinner at the Fenton location.

Great brunch spot! Wow the size of the cinnamon roll! The biscuits and gravy was superb but it came with arugula which was weird. Would recommend!

Jennifer Kroll

Must stop

Gpauxe, Th-e

Very busy. Very good. Bakery portion is always stocked with sweets and cakes. The people who work here have always been friendly to me whenever I come by. They get your food out pretty quickly even when busy. I haven't ever had a bad experience. They do use a type of square pay on iPads so if you're uncomfortable with that you may want to know. They only ever have one "lane" open for orders and seating is pretty much seat yourself they have a few booths but are usually full up pretty quick.

Josiah Stanton

I eat here all the time. Their hash is the best
