27 Best Coffee Shops in Topeka

“I walked into Circle Coffee for the first time ( all bright eyed and not decaffeinated, and I totally forgot to ask for my coffee decaf ( or what my sister calls sad coffee). By the time I realized, they’d already made my coffee and I was walking out the door— but instead of giving me the “well that’s on you” look, they smiled, told me to gift the original to a coworker ( who now thinks I’m the nicest person alive) and made me a fresh decaf for free. Heroes are baristas apparently. The shop itself is a whole vibe — calm, great lighting and welcoming atmosphere—enough ambiance to trick me into thinking I’m the kind of person who journals daily or could write a novel. Also, do NOT sleep on the strawberry goat cheese danish. It’s seriously delicious. I took one bite and considered writing it into my will. Life changing and I’m probably emotionally attached to it now. This place has great vibes, great people, and even better coffee and pastries. Highly recommend.“

“Cute little cafe with friendly staff and delicious peppermint latte and scones! 😋“

“Skylar is the best! Go Skylar!“

“A Sanctuary of Warmth and Community – Café Quetzal There are places in the world that remind you what it means to belong. Café Quetzal is one of them. Step inside, and the chaos of the outside world fades into the background—replaced by the rich aroma of fresh coffee, the hum of friendly conversation, and the warmth of a space built on inclusivity and connection. The first thing you notice is the sense of welcome. A pride flag waves gently in the window, a symbol of the café’s unwavering commitment to community, acceptance, and love. It’s a space where all are embraced, where laughter spills across tables, and where a simple cup of coffee feels like an act of kindness. Outside, the world is unpredictable—sometimes overwhelming, sometimes absurd, like the shadow of a dinosaur stretching across the pavement. But inside, there is sanctuary. Here, you are met with smiling faces, vibrant art, and the kind of small but significant comforts that make you feel at home. Whether you’re here for a quiet moment of reflection, deep conversation, or just a really good cup of coffee, Café Quetzal delivers on every level. It’s more than a coffee shop. It’s a refuge. A place where warmth, love, and hope are always on the menu.“

“Great food, coffee, and service!“

“The sweetest girl helped us; she was so kind and patient! Our drinks are delicious! We plan to come back next time we are in town!!🤎☕️“

“Coffee is the best I’ve had in town. Hazelnut latte was so good. Breakfast bowl was really good too. Glad I tried this today! Pickup was fast and easy.“

“I had the most amazing experience today. My coffee was delicious and everything I wanted. I’m sorry to say that I can’t give five stars to the girl who is taking my order. She seemed more intent on moving to the music and talking to the guy inside. It was kind of disappointing until I noticed that in the line next to me all those people were having a great experience With the girl who was taking their orders. I have to admit, I was a little envious and wished I would’ve gotten in that line. The girl looked over and noticed my dog. She came up to the window and started talking. She was so personable and just had the best attitude. She asked me if I had ordered a pup cup and I said I didn’t even know 7Brew Had pup cups. She immediately went and got one. I found out her name is Campbell. She absolutely changed my perspective on my visit. What I would’ve wanted to have said to the girl who waited on me, would she need to notice Campbell and be more like her. She truly is the representative that this company Would want to represent them. Thank you Campbell, I’ll be back and I’ll be looking for you in line. I have absolutely no doubt bless each and everyone of your customers.“

“Scooters is the best coffee shop in town. First time I had Scooters was in Omaha and when I heard we finally were getting one I was overjoyed! Granted we have many shops now but I used to drink their coffee daily till I realized I needed to cut back financially haha but you can’t go wrong really with any drink and they are always expanding their menu and changing up different drinks and foods, I love the different flavors. Their prices are comparable to other coffee shops, their customer service is outstanding and they really try to be personable even when you are not fully awake yet and need that espresso. Overall I recommend Scooters over any other coffee shop and I have tried others but Scooters is the winner for me!“

“I usually always come to this one because it is literally close to my house but today I made a special stop because the one on 17th gave us horrible drinks. I came to get the same drinks because the others were horrible and may I say they did not disappoint as always and such perfessionalism was delivered. I definitely appreciate everyone on staff here and want you to know YOU GUYS ROCK and are the perfect faces to Dutch Bro's.“

“A wonderful and pleasant surprise! The ☕️ 💯“

“Walked in to a new beautifully renovated Starbucks location, and was greeted by the woman at the cash register right away. When asked about new flavors she suggested the pistachio latte with brown sugar and adding a shot of blonde expresso to make it smoother. Drink turned out wonderful and so was the customer service. Will be coming back! 👍🏼☕“

“I’m so glad I discovered you on Facebook and got to come by today. I loved my latte!! Thank you and I’ll find you again soon!!! ❤️❤️“

“Best coffee ever and I don’t even like coffee😂😂 Also have great workers and a great atmosphere!“

“Great selection, great prices and friendly staff.“

“One of the things I love about Scooters is their app! I love the rewards and I especially love that in my birthday month I received up to $6 towards the drink of my choice! I think it's a great feature that they give you all month instead of just the day of your birthday. Everyone at the Topeka store (29th & Gage) is sweet and fun and they do have great job!“

“I got an iced white mocha with raspberry with coconut milk and a Veg Out breakfast burrito. The staff was super friendly, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the food and coffee are absolutely delicious!! I would highly reccomend them, it takes a little time, but that must be because they are doing it right! I will be back soon.“

“I tried the shop for the first time today. I had forgotten my hearing aides & had to read lips. Their card was down & because I was out of town, they went to a alternate system & really accommodated me well. The Bread & cookies were just really good. The staff was friendly & professional & treated me very well. I was pleased & will go back.“

“Such a cool place. The pumpkin spice cold brew is my fav!“
