“best coffee and great service to“

“Loved the coffee and the girl who gave us our coffee was super nice.“

“What a place! Main Street Coffee, located right off the Square in Independence, is everything a true coffee shop should be — no gimmicks, no distractions, just great coffee and a welcoming space to relax, create, or connect. This spot has quickly become one of my favorite places to settle in and get some writing or work done. Their big, comfy booths are perfect for spreading out with a laptop, notebook, or a good book. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between cozy and productive — soft lighting, warm tones, and just enough background buzz to feel inspired. Now let’s talk about the coffee — it’s genuinely some of the best in the entire metro area. Rich, smooth, and expertly crafted, every cup feels like it’s made with real care. Whether you’re a fan of a bold espresso or a perfectly balanced latte, they never miss. One of the things I love most is their seasonal menu. It’s always creative, always delicious, and it keeps things exciting every time I visit. You can tell the team behind the bar is passionate about what they do — from the quality of the beans to the flavors they bring to life. Main Street Coffee is more than just a coffee shop — it’s a local treasure. If you’re anywhere near Independence, do yourself a favor and stop by. Whether you’re looking for your new favorite drink, a quiet place to work, or just a great cup of coffee, this is the place.“

“Staff was very helpful with my younger kiddos who had questions about menu options. The recommendations were a hit! So delicious and the price was very fair for how big the drink was.“

“Awesome lady was very nice ! I’m a CFI truck driver delivering at Tractor Supply, it was very cold and I walk across the street to get a little coffee and breakfast! She did not hesitate getting me taken care of! God Bless! Oh by the way the food and coffee were excellent!“

“Scooters is always great. Quick and friendly service.“

“Ariel was so friendly and personable. 5 stars.In a world where it seems like employees at chains could care less, Ariel greeted me with a smile and asked how my holiday was. Later, as I worked from a table, I saw some kids come in, acting a little obnoxious and asking for water (without buying anything). She was so patient, and treated them with kindness, not lecturing them about having to buy something to get a cup of water, but treated them like 10 or 12 year olds who were just out having fun and not really understanding how business works.Good on Ariel and good on this Starbucks for hiring her. The world needs more people like this, and corporate chains need to do whatever it takes to single out these type of people and make sure they have jobs (and make sure they are promoted).Great experience, and brightened my day!“

“Emi Scarlett is awesome she told me how to make my drink that I love so much she told me a new way to make it and I bought a cup from her had amazing conversation Taught me a lot about Starbucks I bought a stainless steel cup it was 10 but when she scanned it it came out to 8.50 and it's my first Starbucks cup I have ever bought“

“Love the place. Real nice atmosphere and nice staff.“

“i love starbucks, but i wish it was more consistent. i came earlier the same day and had complete different quality of drinks. night and day for the same exact drink. i had to get it remade it was extremely watery. i come here twice a week, i know it’s annoying but i know what my drink looks and tastes like (3 shots of blonde espresso ristretto extra soy milk extra ice)“

“Delicious donuts that are not artificially too sweet. Very good!“

“It was really easy to get what I wanted“

“A lot of the workers are friendly and nice“

“Always nice to visit, the morning team is kind and thoughtful, especially the way they interact with the older crowd. The food is fresh, tasty and served quickly.
