50 Best Cafes near Leawood

“The Roasterie Cafe is a Kansas City staple. The coffee and espresso made right in front of you is a refreshing change of pace from the typical Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts options. They also had an assortment of fresh bakery items, ranging from donuts to pastries.
Will definitely be back!“

“Love the vibe and the coffee! Highly recommend.“

“Great service! 2nd trip in this morning after a Drs appointment. Going to have coffee and kill time. Ordered small coffee and gentleman said it was on the house. Made my day!“

“Fantastic food and great atmosphere! Worth our tripfrom DFW!“

“I remember hearing about this place years ago but never went. It popped up on my FYP on TikTok so I decided to give it a try. My family and I drove down on a Saturday around 12:30. Not sure where it was exactly, we ended up driving by it and having to turn around. There is only street parking available so we parked 1/2 a block up and walked down. We weren’t the only ones who did. The steady flow of people coming in and out was a lot. Good for business. They only accept cash, which is good to know beforehand. We ordered the famous pork tenderloin, a cheeseburger and fries. Everything is alacarte. Which is also good to know beforehand.
The tenderloin had good flavor but was fried very hard. My husband enjoyed his but said it was too spicy, he had the hot sauce. Overall, it was good. Glad we finally tried it.“

“This place makes me so happy. The lattes are super tasty and having the option to add cbd is great! I love to come here by myself, bring a book and chill at all the different stops surrounded by plants and flowers. The baristas are always nice and open to recommend drinks according to your taste.“

“Great service! DELICIOUS LATTES! And always have the most beautiful flowers.“

“Stopped here for breakfast before leaving KC - so worth it! The cinnamon roll, gooey butter cake, and breakfast hash were delicious! This place was highly recommended and I can see why. The hot mocha latte I got was great too! The place was packed and busy but they weee FAST on getting food and drinks out.“

“Great breakfast food! Only 2 visits and I'm hooked!“

“We had a great time at Donutology in Westport! Delicious, fresh, choose-your-own-toppings, kid-friendly. Hardworking staff, friendly, great atmosphere. Will be back!“

“The name threw us off a bit. I thought it was a like a tea version of starbucks. The tea is really good. My Daughter is raving about the mint lemonade. Their food, is incredible. Best butter chicken I have ever had. Even their american offerings like chicken tenders and fries are absolutely perfect. My family of 6 went out there and tried a little bit of everything on the menu. I don't know how they can have such an expansive menu, yet nail every dish. 10/10“

“Probably the best sandwiches in kansas city you have to try the cuban missile!
Awesome breakfast to go starting at 6 am, and I think they're open all the way to 1:30 AM.
All the truckers in the West bottoms go there.
And of course the locals...“

“Great Coffee!! Cute bears outside!“

“Spokes Management was able to host us for a holiday party which was an absolute hit for all those in attendance. The atmosphere was phenomenal. Dan and Robin were not just working behind the bar but they were all over the place helping us with anything we needed. They were incredibly personable all night. Spokes is a top notch space with amazing coffee and food. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Great Coffee!! Cute bears outside!“

“Best Mexican restaurant! Not only is the food absolutely amazing, but the family that runs it is incredible—friendly, kind, and trustworthy. I accidentally forgot my purse there, and they kept it safe for two days until I was able to return. Highly recommend!“

“Food is delicious. I love that they don't over salt anything, especially the hash browns. If I want pepper and salt on them I will salt .y own. This way I decide on if I want them salty or not.“

“I got the red wine and beef pie and it was amazing I don't normally leave reviews but it was so good that I had to go on here and instantly leave a review I will be back for more definitely recommend“

“Simply one of my favorite coffee shops to get some work done or read. The staff is always so kind, helpful and patient and the atmosphere relaxing.
Parking can sometimes be tricky depending on what time you go. I usually park behind the shop in the parking lot but you might have to park further by Consentino’s.“

“I ordered a scamble bowl to-go, & let me tell you: this was one of the best to-go breakfast order's I've ever had. The ingredients were fresh, layers of flavor & clean ingredients. I appreciate the chef & will be coming here more often! 10/10“

“My daughter and I just visited last Friday! It was wonderful! We had some of the best interactions with all of the staff. I could’ve stayed in the Egyptian exhibit all day!“

“The french dip is shaved prime rib!!! It was great. Very good atmosphere and nice staff!“

“Started our experience at the Crossroads’ Percheron Rooftop Bar and ended it at XR. The atmosphere was the ultimate standout, but the food and service were still good! I ordered the Shroomer Boomer, and the goat cheese herb mix on that is yum! The dining room filled up to near capacity despite it being a weeknight, and we even had a very chill celebrity sighting. A very cool spot to feel metropolitan for a day! Only cons were the pebble ice that came in my cocktail and that parking can be somewhat limited if you’re not a hotel guest.“

“I misread the menu item “seasonal SIGNATURE LATTE” and asked for a turtle latte. In my defense, “-TURE LATTE” looked like turtle and I was tired. They still made a turtle latte, but the signature part was a nice touch. This beautiful foamy artwork was hidden under the coffee lid. Definitely coming back. 😂 Good coffee too.“

“I absolutely love Papu’s! The food is always made fresh to order & the quality & pricing can not be beat! The owner Khalid & his staff are amazing!“

“Excellent!“

“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!“

“We love PT’s Coffee. After the manufacturer discontinued the espresso beans I had used for years, I struggled to find a replacement. I eventually tried PT’s Coffee ...ordered as a latte, my usual drink...at one of their stores and really enjoyed the robust flavor of the Flying Monkey espresso blend.

I started buying the beans around 2021–2022 at my local Whole Foods, where a 12 oz. bag cost $11.79 ($0.98/oz.). It was a great deal. However, by about 2023, the beans became increasingly hard to find at Whole Foods. So I began going to the PT’s store at Power & Light to purchase them instead. I noticed the bags sold at PT’s locations are 2 oz. smaller and cost over $4 more per bag. Naturally, I thought: let me order in bulk online - surely that’s cheaper. But after visiting the website and subscribing, I found that the opposite was true. While the subscription saves me a few dollars, the price per ounce is still higher than what I paid at Whole Foods. Here's the math:

12 oz. bag at Whole Foods: $11.79 ($0.98/oz.)
32 oz. bag online: $44.25 ($1.38/oz.)
32 oz. bag with subscription discount: $39.83 ($1.24/oz.)

After realizing this, I reached out to PT’s directly via their website. They responded quickly and explained that they transitioned from 12 oz. to 10 oz. bags to align with their sister company, Bird Rock Coffee, and to match the size preferences of several distribution partners. They also noted that this change came with their first per-ounce price increase since 2017, and that the Whole Foods pricing was a lingering anomaly. I really appreciated their transparency and honesty...it made me want to keep doing business with them.

We no longer live in Kansas City, but I now subscribe to receive a 5 lb. bag (about every 6–8 weeks) for $89.00. The best part is that the beans are roasted the day before they’re shipped, which was never the case with the beans I bought at Whole Foods.
I only hope that any potential tariffs aren’t passed on to the customer. I’m very happy with the product and the current price point. There’s not much room for the price to increase unless there’s a corresponding increase in quality or added value.“

“Nice staff, good location, good coffee!“

“I have breakfast here most Wednesdays with friends from church. There are usually 12 or more of us and Gabriella is often our waitress. She is always pleasant, attentive, and can multi-task (a necessary skill with our group). Thank you, Gabby. The food is great and the price is very reasonable. I highly recommend Ranch Cafe in Grandview, MO.“

“the food was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“Today was my first time dining at Urban Restaurant. The food was amazing! Service was amazing! The atmosphere was great! It was clean and beautiful! I really enjoyed The Shrimp & Grits. I can’t wait to go back for more!“

“FANTASTIC MUSEUM! My daughter and I are both history nuts and love this place! The staff members are very knowledgeable and are so sweet! It was my first trip and I could’ve spent 2 or 3 days in here and still wouldn’t have viewed everything. The sweetest man stopped us as we were exiting and asked us if we saw the letter of the luckiest human ever. Of course we didn’t, we had overlooked it. He took us back in and showed us a letter of a soldier who entered and exited service on the same day…just hours apart. This gentleman loved his job and it showed! We will be back, time and time again!“

“I think research is decent but I will say the charge nurse Lauren is rude and hostile ! Slamming doors in visitors faces and talking to visitors extremely rude. 0/10 I don’t recommend her !“

“A convenient lunch during our museum visit. Trench stew was very filling. There were multiple sandwich and burger options as well as a homemade soup of the day. Staff helped me with gluten free options.

Dietary restrictions: Trench stew is gluten free. They also had a gluten free cookie (Udi's I think).

Kid-friendliness: A couple kids menu options. My son had grilled cheese.“

“Such an awesome place at KCAI - great food, great service, can't be beat!“
