“Great Coffee!! Cute bears outside!“

“AMAZING!!! As an avid ice cream/sweets enthusiast, I cannot emphasize how impressed I am with Fairway Creamery! The ice cream, staff, and overall vibe of the restaurant is just what you look for when going to your favorite ice cream shop. I will definitely be recommending it to friends in the area and will always make a pit stop when in KC!!“

“It’s my favorite coffeehouse in the metro. I’ve bought art there, I’ve cheered myself up there. I feel like this is one of those places that people should know about more.“

“Hagámoslo simple… tengo que regresar a este sitio!!…“

“I have been dying to try this place but it is way across town for me. It was well worth the trip. I got “The Mind Latte” a mushroom concoction with mushroom cold foam. This is unique, creative and tasty. The whole vibe is awesome. I am so happy I made the trip. I will be back.“

“I’ve heard of Equal Minded in the past, but recently a friend hosted an event there and it was great! The space was easy to set up in, the coffee and snacks were great & the customer service. Since then, if I am in the area and I need to get work done, it’s becoming more of a place to pop into. The more I get to know about what they offer and the small businesses they support, the more I enjoy becoming a customer there. I also really like that they have some Sugar Free options & I really like their Honey Lavender Matcha too!“

“Great atmosphere! Great coffee!“

“This place is GREAT! Not pretentious, wonderful and friendly staff, oh yeah, and great coffee drinks. I prefer to support this local business rather than some national chain. From what I understand the food is pretty tasty and I KNOW the Galette is!“

“Great coffee, food and staff. Will definitely be back!“

“Love this coffee shop! Not only is the coffee delicious but the sweet people running the shop have the CUTEST shop dog🫶🏼 it’s a MUST“

“Really great coffee and food!!“

“On our quest to find great coffee in all 50 states, we found this little shop with a cute outdoor space right on the Kansas side of the state line in KC. The coffee was great. The staff took care in each drink, even letting us know that the drip coffee was just outside of the ideal temperature range when we ordered so we could get something else if we preferred. The two people working were super friendly and helpful. We got a cup of drip coffee, the harvest smoothie, and a pumpkin drink I can't remember the name of. The smoothie was probably the best green smoothie I've ever had, and the coffee drinks were delicious.“

“There is Revo cup close to my home which I stop in now and then. My real estate team and I had a coffee event there to buy coffee for patrons and answer some questions about the real estate market and offer some helpful real estate advice. The owner was so welcoming and helpful to guide people our way.“

“The Kolaches were phenomenal. While eating here I texted everyone I know to try this place. We will be back very soon!!!!“

“What can I say, THE BEST COFFEE IN TOWN. I absolutely bring our friends and family here. I loved this place so much that when I found out they hosted large events inside their spacious venue I had to book it for our wedding reception! They handled it with the utmost care and all our needs were met in a timely and courteous manner.“

“We walked about 10 minutes to get here because it was the highest-rated coffee spot nearby and it was absolutely worth the walk. The coffee was fantastic, the blueberry scones were delicious, and there were so many tempting options it was hard to choose just one.

A special shout-out to the barista who kindly remade my friend’s coffee after he accidentally spilled it — such great service and hospitality. We’re visiting from Indiana for a pickleball conference, and this was the perfect way to start the day in downtown KC. Highly recommend!“

“On December 8 (the sad anniversary of John Lennon’s assassination), Babs told me about a coffeehouse that she’d read about in Kansas City Magazine. “Sounds like your kind of place.” On Saturday the 9th, I stopped by & was smitten. The coffee was terrific. The place had a funky yet welcoming vibe. Today 12/15/23, I invited my coffee ☕️ group to meet there & they were equally impressed. We’ll be back.“

“This place was phenomenal! The food first of all was excellent fresh and made from fresh ingredients! The service was beyond great. They have taught these young people how to respond properly to the public. It's a great place to catch a bite to eat have a cup of coffee and meet up with friends ! You are also promoting the skills of culinary arts for foster kids who age out of the system ! I give this place five stars“

“I came to the Cafeton Y Perreo event here yesterday and it was so much fun! Music was divine, everybody was having fun, and the service was lovely. The only thing is that it got very hot inside but that’s because the doors were open and it was such a hot day regardless. Will come back to try the food!“

“I love 7Brew. I’m an addict for sure. Energy drinks and iced coffee is so good. Definitely try it !!!! Always fast and friendly“

“This record store/ coffee shop is a rare gem. We were blown away by the selection of vinyl from all different genres. We didn't have coffee, so no review about that, but the coffee bar area looked clean and welcoming. The owner took the time to help us select a record from a local band. We're from out of town and wanted to take a gift back for a friend. He asked us a few questions and helped us make the selection. He knew a lot about the local music scene and was friendly.“

“This is a lovely spot for coffee, bite to eat, and a cozy environment.“

“I was warmly greeted by a woman behind the counter and she helped me find a drink I’d like since this was my first time visiting. I will definitely be back!!! Love the coffee and quiet atmosphere for studying!! Cannot recommend this place enough.“

“Amazing atmosphere and great coffee“

“Everything about this location is so unique, beautiful and very tastefully done! I have never had anything from here that did not eclipse what you could imagine about pastries and coffee! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

“Crows is my favorite coffee house in KC. Live music and all!“

“I tried the salted butterscotch. It was delicious.“

“Amazing coffee! Will certainly have to return!“

“The coffee scene in KC has space for a lot of variety, and plainly to declare one the best ignores the complexity of the tapestry that is taste. Second Best approaches this with humility to explore that they still have room to grow and develop in to what would make them the best coffee experience. Their community, tenure, and coffee represent a cornerstone of Midwest experience.“

“The Frozen Spicy (dirty) Chai is ridiculously good for a hot day. I literally get the same thing every time. 😁“

“chill vibes, friendly service!“

“YUM! Love, love, love the new turkey Swiss croissant sandwich!!!!“

“I adore Cafe Corazon, and am genuinely shocked that I haven’t reviewed them yet.

I have held office hours at the Westport location since they opened and with years of history behind us, I can definitively say that Cafe Corazon is one of the best coffee experiences to be had in Kansas City.

I say experiences for a reason. Friends, I don’t even like coffee.

Of course, they have a stellar regular menu with great coffee drinks. Seasonal menus are inventive and I’m partial to anything Manzanita flavored in autumn because they put these little cinnamon apple crisps on top and it’s delicious. The coffee flight is fun to order with a friend but for me, the Dulce de Leche Latte, iced with extra drizzle is just *chefs kiss*. Occasionally I’ll add an extra shot if I need the jolt and it’s incredible.

Once, Alejandro saw me on my way in and started making my drink before I hit the door, so I had it in hand by the time I hit the register - which leads me to another thing Cafe Corazon does extraordinarily well. Their team is always so friendly and service-oriented. I love it!

They offer a comprehensive Yerba Mate menu, and it’s fun to overhear staff explain the history and ritual to folks who’ve never tried it before. The empanadas (made by Pan Caliente, a local Argentinian bakery) and accompanying chimichurri sauce is out of this world.

The artwork is colorful annd vibrant and I love when they decorate for holidays. They have a gorgeous ofrenda every year for Dia de los Muertos. The sense of community and Latin American culture that shows up so intentionally in every detail is just as warming as the coffee. That’s why I say experience.

Cafe Corazon has tasty coffee but it’s so much more. This location is a cozy little haven on Westport Rd. and I’m so happy to see them continue to grow and influence the KC coffee landscape.“

“My husband and I come here every weekend with our dog to enjoy breakfast burritos and lattes on the patio. We love the convenience of ordering online and picking up our order in the store, and I meet clients there whenever possible. It's cozy, cute, and delicious, with something for everyone on the menu. Five stars! *****“

“Great place to sit down and relax! I used to go to the origins location and found this one. Love coming in, grabbing some coffee and reading. Friendly staff, good atmosphere and good coffee. Highly recommended!“

“We adore our neighbors at Sway! We grab a coffee here nearly every day and brew our own with their beans when they are closed. They are a brilliant addition to the neighborhood, the smell of beans roasting in an inviting place to grab a beverage and a McLain’s bakery treat.“

“What an amazing coffee shop. The coffee was some of the best I’ve had in the KC area. They roast onsite.

Atmosphere is great and just off the Plaza. The staff were friendly and attentive.

Plenty of space to sprawl out and get some work done or sit and talk in a very comfy sofa or chairs.“

“I love cats they love me. Nothing else to“

“We’re in town visiting for the weekend and came across Maps. We enjoyed our visit there this morning. We loved the atmosphere and the esthetic of shop. They had a great variety of drink options. We ordered the honey and Mexican lattes along with kids steamers. The honey was sweet and delicious; the Mexican was just the right amount of spice you’re looking for in a coffee and the kids steamers were the perfect temp for our girls. Our youngest liked it so much she forked out every last drop of the milk. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town visiting. 💜“

“The staff was friendly and the atmosphere looks great. I was delivering some merchandise for the store and Abigail was very kind and offered me coffee and that latte was delicious service was very nice and quick. I really recommend it to anyone who wants to try some good coffee. Keep up the great work team!“

“very good coffee and great price.“

“Our first time here and Breakfast & Coffee was delicious. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“We took the factory tour on a Saturday morning and had an excellent time. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and funny. We were able to sample several versions of their cold brew at the end which was excellent as well. Definitely stop by if you are in the area.“

“Hands down one of the best coffee shops I’ve had this year!!! I have no recommendations!! That snores latte was so heavenly omgggg!! The pastry was so flaky, soft, and yummy. The biscuits and gravy, the most perfect portion paired with coffee. Everyone there was so niceee and honest with recommendations!!! I’ve recommended this place to a lot of people.“

“Great customer service and very friendly! Highly recommended!“

“Girl behind the counter was so sweet. I told her what I needed and she has multiple recommendations! 10/10 I'll be back“

“it's a real neighborhood place, Marlborough is coming back to life.“

“Pleasant visit. Enjoyed our coffee on the rooftop patio which made for a fun experience, employees were kind and helpful.“

“Service was amazing! My app wasn't allowing me to complete the purchase , the young man that was working was so patient and lively, conversed the whole time positively until the issue was resolved! The drinks are always made with 💕 love!!!
Starbucks is definitely overrated...“
