15 Best Cafes in Lawrence

“I have been coming to Wheatfield bakery since the 90s, I just love the food and it's freshly baked“

“Took my e-bike in today to get some work done and everyone was super nice and helpful! They even squeezed me in today although they were busy. The guy at the counter kept eyeballing me weird while I was browsing as if I was gonna steal something 😂 but my overall experience was awesome! I’ve been to some of the competitors in town but they wanted to charge me double than what sunflower did! I will be coming here from now on.“

“Great coffee and exceptional staff that went the “extra mile” for customers!“

“The place os small but they have a counter you can sit at which helped get us seated faster. The service was excellent and food came out fresh and fast. Lots of different food with different flavors. I had the County fried steak on cheesy grits and gravy with scrambled eggs. Interesting combination that was excellent! Worth giving them a try.
Only thing is bathrooms men and women share the same room, if your not comfortable with that avoid using basthroom.“

“This has quickly become my favorite study spot. It's got great ambiance, awesome staff, excellent drinks, and enough seating. I've never seen it so busy that there's a line, and I've never had to wait to be served. It can feel a little cramped with more than 3 groups in at a time, but there's more seating in a back room that helps with that (though I don't think I've seen outlets in the back room).“

“I was so happy to find La Prima Tazza in the downtown area of Lawrence, Kansas! I needed a good cup of coffee and a little internet one morning while visiting my sophomore at KU, and this classic coffee shop was just the ticket! They happily filled up my travel mug after the barista helped me select one of their delicious coffees AND I got the 'bring your own mug' discount! I am not truly a coffee connoisseur, but I can appreciate the care that goes into a good cup of coffee and my selection was aromatic and slightly floral, yet strong. The vibe was definitely chill and there were certainly regulars who make La Prima Tazza a part of their routines. With plenty of cafe tables, a single sipper doesn't have to worry too much about staying too long ( although I know that all day campers are not the fave of these long-standing coffee shops!)

While I sipped my delicious coffee I really enjoyed looking around at their custom ceramic offerings and hand-scribed chalkboard menus (and maybe learning a little more about coffee), as well as examining the art displayed. Art in coffee shops can be hit-or-miss, but the selections at my visit in April were intricate, intriguing assemblages and I wish I had gotten the artist info - the works added to the warm and woody ambiance of the cafe. If someone sees this review and knows the artist, please share their info here?“

“The best Grilled Cheese I have ever had in my life ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Amazing Service!!!“

“It is a safe diverse inclusive fun space.“

“Always great! Best breakfast anywhere except home!“

“I love the spinach & feta bread (even with jelly)!! Not to mention my usual rhubarb/strawberry pie and assorted bars!! Thank you for expanding to breakfast and lunch, everything is so delicious!“

“What a wonderful breakfast burrito! I know this much….if that tomatillo salsa is made in house, you need to be selling that by the jar in café and at the Merc!“

“Had a wonderful breakfast at Milton's. Our waitress forgot to put our order in to the kitchen, so we were delayed about 15 minutes. But the staff was very apologetic, and gave us a nice discount! Loved everything about Milton's, and highly recommend!“

“best family atmosphere and food you can ask for“

“Old review:They were slammed and still got out our carry out relatively quictly.
New review: They were over whelmed. Telling people it will be at least 45 min to get you food. We just left after 40. I did not even care about trying to get a refund. There was no chance of getting v our food.
I am a big fan of (Bread Co), but this one needs more staff. The people that were there, really tried.“
