Reviews for The Cafe Belle Epoque in St Joseph, MO
Beautiful ambiance and delicious food! The BLT with split pea soup, along with the shepherds pie and a slice of chocolate... bourbon pecan pie was heaven. Read more
Wonderful little cafe. Cozy place that plays soft music for the perfect setting. Quality food. Farm to table fresh.
Delish food, fresh ingredients. Would like the hot food to be hotter, but still good. Be ready to pay $6:00 if you order a... small little bag of chips on the side Read more
We are visiting St Joe and we were looking for vegan options and this was one of the few places we found with a dedicated vegan... menu. First the good; staff was pleasant and attentive and the atmosphere is fantastic. We really enjoyed the vibe and for thatreason 3 stars. On to the not-so-good. The place has a vegan menu but when I went to order coffee I was told they don?t haveplant milk options. I thought this was really strange as even most of my meat-eating friends opt for plant milk in their coffee;it?s really rare to find a place that only offers dairy with their coffee in 2022. As to the food, we had the vegan shepherd?spie and the vegan curry, with sides being split pea soup and hummus with pita. Unfortunately I had to send the shepherd?s pieback to the kitchen to be heated up as it was cold in the middle. I did enjoy the split pea soup and the curry was nice, butthe rice that came with the curry was dried out and the pita that came with the hummus was served cold, which was somewhatdisappointing. All-in-all the food just missed the mark. Maybe it is because we come from an area that has a wide range ofvegan options, but we came hungry and finished less than half of the food we were served. I?m a big eater and tend to clear myplate, but in this instance we didn?t even bother to get a box to take leftovers to the Airbnb. TLDR; staff and atmosphere werefantastic, vegan food could use some improvements, and absolutely please offer plant-based milks for your coffee. Read more
Unique menu with quality ingredients. Lovely setting in a historic district. Would definitely go back. Only complaint was it... was very slow with what seemed like 2 staff members. Read more
Amazing food! The iced tea was delicious, and the shepherds pie was phenomenal. At first, I didn?t think I would like it. But... boy was I wrong. If I?m ever in Missouri, I would come again. Read more
We happened upon the Cafe Belle Époque on a Friday evening and it?s the best find we?ve made in St.Joe in a while. We had the... Hummus appetizer, Sid?s Roast Beef, the Three Cheese Mac and Cheese - both with the arugula side salads - and the ChocolatePecan Pie with boozy whipped cream for dessert. Everything. Was. Amazing. The service staff was quick and so hospitable! We willdefinitely be back! Read more
Excellent Brussel Sprouts. I got the shepards pie which was also great, but make sure you try the sprouts.
