Located in University Tower on Brentwood Boulevard, Coma Coffee Roasters prides itself on sourcing high-quality beans from around the world and roasting them in ways that bring out their unique flavors and characteristics.

Whatever else you do, come hungry. In addition to one of the best full hot breakfast menus offered by any of the coffee shops in St. Louis, Coma Coffee Roasters offers hot tea, espresso, brewed coffee, and signature drinks. You can also order draft beer, wines, and cocktails!

Park Avenue Coffee Roasters

Park Avenue Coffee Roasters is locally owned and operated. Though you could visit any one of their six cafe locations, we recommend the one nestled right in Historical Lafayette Square. The sightseeing and ambiance in this 184-year-old neighborhood are unmatched.

One thing that makes Park Avenue Coffee Roasters coffee unique is their air-roasting method. This makes for brighter flavors, and their focus on small-batch roasts leads to consistently fresh tastes.

While this location does offer a wide variety of non-coffee drinks, including teas, smoothies, hot chocolates, milk, juices, and soda, the true stars of the show are the coffee and espresso-based drinks.

We especially recommend a simple frozen cold brew or the Turtle Mocha Frappuccino!

Testimonials

Me and my family have been here just over six months and we truly love it. The office staff made the application process simple and straight forward. They actually went far beyond what any other property managers were willing and able to do to accommodate our needs. The maintenance staff responds quickly and never hassles us or make excuses. They even respond after hours and weekends when necessary. It's peaceful and quiet here even on Friday and Saturday nights. Plus, Suson Park is less than 1

I had a accident and was put in a wheelchair and a walker and when I called the office she immediately said yes they would put a ramp up for me to get out of my apartment. The maintenance men here always ask about how I'm doing also. I never had a apartment complex go out of there way to help there residents and I truly appreciate them for the help.

I went to Suson Pines Apartments on the Monday before Thanksgiving to look for a place to rent, and I was able to move in the next day. The leasing process is comprehensive but organized and easy to navigate, and the professionals at Suson Pines Apartments were very helpful in answering any questions that I had. The leasing office offers many options and accommodations for leasing, and their online application makes it easy to choose.

I love living at Suson Pines. All of the staff are very professional and friendly and maintenance does a great job at coming out quick if something needs to be worked on, which is not very often. The apartments are nicely sized, with lots of closet space, a large walkout patio, updated appliances, and the grounds are very pretty and relaxing. I also like the fact that they are centrally located and very close to restaurants and businesses.

Everyone has different experiences and I would never want to take away from their own experience, however mine has been great since I have moved in. The staff has been accommodating and beyond helpful when it has come to my anxieties, from little questions, and to my bigger concerns. Sam has worked with me the most, and I can not express how she made what seemed like a scary and stressful transition into something peaceful and simple. Maintenance has been good to work with.
