Cafe Blackadder recieved a 100% perfect rating from the Missouri Department of Health for the 2nd time! Yeah!
Café Blackadder is focused on providing high-quality, fresh and local food. We buy from Buckeye Acres Farm and other local producers, and Julie has her own garden! Please see our menu for more information on our lovely homemade soups, fresh & tasty sandwiches, appetizing starters, and divine desserts.
We serve a variety of beverages including freshly squeezed lemonade and brewed pots of tea using loose teas - it's just so much better!
We delight in our customers' satisfaction and we will do everything we can to exceed your expectations.
Our atmosphere is relaxed and we strive to provide friendly, expert service. Our food does take time to prepare as we make our dishes from scratch, so please let us know if you're in a hurry and we will do all we can to make you happy.
With a variety of menu offerings to choose from - daily specials featuring seasonal, local & organic ingredients - catering and private parties - local art and live music, we think you'll enjoy your time with us.
*Cafe' Blackadder is a GREEN cafe! From our renovation to our daily operation, we are devoted to the best possible practices we can achieve.
- We recycle cardboard, plastic, tin & aluminum cans, cell phones and ink cartridges
- We buy locally whenever possible, particularly our produce
- We grow many of our own vegetables, herbs & spices (some right in the window of the shop!)
- We use cloth dinner napkins
- Our paper towels in the restroom are made of recycled paper products
- We use energy conserving appliances, many made locally in St. Louis, MO
- Our renovation involved re-purposing as much wood and other items as possible from the previous business
- We have a new, energy efficient furnace and A/C unit
- Our tables & chairs are re-purposed
- Next spring we will be adding a solar array to our roof!! Click HERE for Mike Shaw's website, giving information on solar!
