The Venice Cafe, on Pestalozzi across I-55 from the Anheuser-Busch brewery in South St. Louis, is definitively Bohemian.  There is also a new coffee house in the DeMun neighborhood, in southern Clayton close to Washington University, but it seems more upscale than Venice.  Paul's Books in University City has a cafe/coffee house attached to it called ibid.; Brandt's, also in the U. City loop, is more of a cafe but serves good sippin' coffee; and all of the St. Louis Bread Company stores have a wide assortment of latte, espresso, etc.

Hope that helps -- hard to tell whether you meant Starrbucks type coffee houses or Bob Dylan in 1963 type coffee houses.

The local Reader, Village Voice, Westword, etc. analog is called The Riverfront Times...very good guide to local music scene and cool events.  Its restaurant critic is a wry, witty, weird and wired kinda guy who loves to tell people, both in print and on-line, about great places to eat and drink in St. Louis ;-).
