12 Best Cafes in Topeka

“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.“

“Upon entering I noticed how adorable this cafe is. My husband and I were promptly greeted with a smile. I was not warned that this place is good enough to make your eyes bigger than your stomach. The service and food was amazing. Cinnamon rolls get a 10/10 from me which is hard to do! 😉 Will definitely be back for more. Thank you for the great experience!“

“So easy to work with and food was great!“

“I've tried several dishes in here and so far everything AND the service has been great.“

“I've had several dishes from the tacos to the spicy Asian chicken wraps and everything has been extremely delicious. They also have some of the best homemade giant cookies you've ever seen and my pick is the chocolate chip. And I really like the fact that everything is made in-house and is fresh. Their pricing is very competitive for the product they're serving and the staff is friendly. Great place to stop in if you're tired of the big food chains.“

“My sister first brought me to this place a couple weeks ago, was a little skeptical. But needless to say they have a super awesome staff, great deals. Just a great place for healthy options! My favorite tea is the wonder woman. If you haven't tried it, I would definitely do so!“

“Since my first time at Townsite I have LOVED IT. Amalia at the register is so kind and the boys (&girls) in the back always cook up something good for the weekly special. I’ve never found something there I don’t like! Give them a try, and for convenience order ahead online!“

“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 Sandwiches,.coffee, prices, and service. We will go there again!“

“Driving through the tiny little town of Lyndon, Kansas, I read across the most adorable bistro and Coffey shop. The panini was scrumptious, the employees customer service , exemplary and decorated so, so cute and welcoming. Did I mention the delicious smells. Only drawback is I don’t live closer!“

“Had not been there in awhile, though we'd try it again.
The place needs a thorough cleaning!
The ceiling vents are terrible, food ground into the carpet, needed vacuuming.
It's too bad, that turned me away again.
Management needs to get this place back into order now.“
