12 Best Coffee Roasters in Kansas City

“Really great coffee and food!!“

“Great coffee! I love the ambiance of the place!“

“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 met a friend for coffee here yesterday. What a great experience. We each had 2 drinks and stayed to visit for 2.5 hours! We each had a latte and a tea. Both were great! We felt welcome and I even joked around with Charlie. I was being my usual weird self and he was very entertained. We will definately return often.“

“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.“

“Great Tea! I loved the purple Palmer and the rose Palmer !“

“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.“

“Could not imagine a better experience. I was very uncomfortable with my son’s symptoms and was immediately taken seriously. Everyone was empathetic, nice, efficient, and had excellent communication. The doctor and nurse not only did those things but provided me with education to prevent another “episode.” Extremely grateful for their professionalism and treatment of my baby.“

“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.“

“Friendliest baristas in KC. They actually seem to enjoy being there. I really like the house blend roast for making coffee at home.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars My go-to coffee spot—every single time! Headrush Roasters is truly a gem! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with the comforting aroma of freshly roasted coffee and the warmest, friendliest staff. The atmosphere is relaxed, cozy, and perfect whether you’re meeting friends, getting work done, or just enjoying some quiet time with a great cup of coffee. Their coffee is consistently top-notch—smooth, rich, and full of flavor. You can tell they’re passionate about what they do, and it shows in every sip. I’ve tried everything from their cold brews to seasonal lattes, and I’ve never been disappointed. Their pastries and snacks are also amazing and make the perfect pairing. It’s not just a coffee shop—it’s a community space with heart. Highly recommend stopping by if you haven’t yet. You’ll be hooked after your first visit!“

“I absolutely love this drive thru. Chelsea, Jada, Olivia, and Chuck are the friendliest staff and caring! My fiancé and I are regulars that frequent weekly several times. On crap days, I will go grab a coffee just to see their friendly faces. I do wish that this location stayed on top of supplies though....had a rough go with lack of honey and cups a while ago.“
