PJ's Coffee on Highway K in O'Fallon serves food that is absolutely delicious, in a pleasant atmosphere, with friendly employees whose work ethic and knowledge of their products is excellent. My wife and I stopped by for coffee and beignets (mostly for the beignets for me) and we're thrilled that we finally are aware of a local (close by) place that serves these New Orleans delicacies...mmmm are they good! We will visit more often now that we had such a great experience today! We encourage you to give them a try - breakfast sandwiches, scones, and much more!

I went there for an iced latte and had been there before. The coffee was pretty good. I asked for light ice this time and was told there was an up charge because I'd be getting double the product. I asked what the size was and was told 12 oz. I asked if the cup was bigger than 12 oz and was told no. I then said so without the ice I'm getting the advertised product amount so I didn't understand the up charge. So I'm paying for 12 and getting 6 and you want me to pay MORE to get the 12oz I already paid for?. She said if I want 12oz, get it hot. I walked out after that. Same reason why Burger King is getting sued right now.

Super friendly staff! The baked goods and coffee are amazing especially if you like a stronger tasting coffee. The vibe is very n'orleans.

Best Coffee. Best Service. They have Limited Time Offer drinks that change what seems every other month to keep everyone's interest and some of the smoothest (and Strongest!) Espresso i've ever tasted. Highly recommend checking this place out.

THIS! This is exactly what a coffee shop should be. I recommend making this your daily stop. Oh.... they have Beignets!

The size of this New Orleans coffee shop was just right. The staff greats everyone as they come in the door, which was nice. We ordered a medium roast coffee and a traditional black iced tea. I'm not the coffee drinker, but was told it was bitter. The iced tea was fine, but I was surprised to learn that they don't offer free refills---most places offer at least one.

Who doesn't love coffee??? I was excited to pop in and give this place a try. The team is so friendly and helpful!! The line moves quickly. My order is a dirty chai latte with skim milk. I have yet to try the food offerings. The case is full of sweet and savory items to choose from. The space is perfect for meeting friends for coffee, studying or just hanging out.

First time visiting. Super cute coffee shop with its own unique flair - New Orleans style. My partner and I ordered a drink and an order (of 3) beignets. I had a vanilla velvet ice which was very tasty. The beignets were very delicious - more filling than a usual beignets which I've found to be more airy in the middle. Would definitely recommend. A nice change of pace compared to the usual popular chains.

Excellent latte and beignets and friendly drive-through service. I tried their strawberry rose white chocolate latte, honey oat milk latte and beignets - all were excellent and one of the best coffee latte I've had in the area. The rose flavor is pleasant, but not too strong and latte was smooth; I couldn't stop drinking it. I'll definitely be coming back for more soon.

Fantastic addition to the O'fallon area! The inside is a modern, clean, New Orleans themed coffee shop and the workers are so so friendly. Stopped in today and they were super quick and accurate with the four drinks I ordered. The menu is expansive. They have a good selection of sugar free and regular syrups and milk options. My favorite part- the sizes are what you would expect and the prices aren't insane either (I can't say this about many of the other local coffee shops nearby). Additionally, the sugar free flavors (I got hazelnut) tasted fantastic- nothing like a nearby coffee shop that tastes like chemicals. I love that they have regular and nitro cold brew as well. Stop inside or hit the drive thru :) This might be my new go to spot! 10/10
Coffee shops are ubiquitous and generic these days. There's little to be said for one other than its parking lot is larger or smaller than the competitor's down the street. PJ's draws on a New Orleans heritage. A jazzy musical playlist, Mardi Gras-esque chandelier, and beignets offered hints of the Crescent City. It reminded me of Starbucks. Not in its appearance but with its stripped down menu--mostly coffee items and a few teas and pastries--and its straightforward interior. There's a leather-like couch with matching chairs, and 4-person individual tables for laptop work or a quick meeting. There's also the wall of packaged coffees with branded items for sale, a drive-thru, and personable baristas. (It has sufficient parking.)Add emerald green, discard the white counter and subway tile backdrop, install a mermaid logo and it's good to go as the competition.

Have you ever been transported back to a specific time or place through food? Maybe it's eating something your grandma used to make, or eating something you had at a restaurant on a memorable vacation. Well, in Missouri you don't see beignets on a menu very often. But PJs has them, made from scratch, and made to order along with well-balanced, aromatic coffee to accompany those delicious beignets. One bite and I was transported back to New Orleans, sitting in Cafe Du Monde, eating beignets, drinking cafe au lait, and listening to live jazz on the street corner. It was an unexpected wonderful memory made possible by eating a most enjoyable treat at PJs. Here are two bits of advice while eating beignets: 1. Have plenty of napkins ready because powdered sugar will be everywhere. 2. Don't inhale as you take a bite. Trust me. :) Enjoy!

I recommend checking this place out.
