“Omgsh I love two sugars! Victoria and Simon are amazing and super friendly. I can’t rave enough about this place. From the coffees, to the baked goodz,and the food (the bagels are to die for!). It’s such a cute shop too. 10/10“

Parking: Parking in lot, on the streets, and around the area.

Kid-friendliness: They have games, large open spaces, and kid specials. It was nice to see kids on their little toy motorcycles.“

“Vibes & service are incredibly important to me and this shop does great at both.

TC has an identity that is much different than other shops around town. I get tired of modern, sterile, cafeteria style shops.

TC has a warm western / homey ambiance that provides coffee goers with a space to relax and enjoy other people’s presence.

As far as quality of their products go, it’s evident that they pay close attention to detail. Their roasting partner Marcell makes high quality coffee !!“

“Imagine what happens when you mix a great independent coffee shop and record store with progressive activists.

It’s the most wonderful place to spend some time.

Why buy your coffee from the man when you can get it from Sister Anne’s?“

“Love this place, I come here every time I visit KC! The horchata iced latte is my favorite.
I have never tried the food as I always just get a coffee but it’s on my list to try. Great place to hangout and converse with friends. Dog friendly place too!“

“love the shop awesome place mitch and his lovely wife 2 beautiful coffee maker upper folks my 1st stop b4 work ☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️“

“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.“

“Amazing atmosphere and great coffee“

“Great creative options. The staff were fast and friendly friendly. Will definitely be back to try more of the options!“

“Such welcoming and caring baristas, that’s what makes this place special. The turn around to making your drink is quick and they are good at dialing in their espressos. I think they have an app to order for pick up but it wasn’t working when I downloaded-if they could get that going I’d go there more often! Wish they had vegan baked goods.“

“Loved the yogurt parfait and iced chai. The almond croissant was amazing! The rooftop seating was the best. Definitely would return.“

“GO SEE ERIC! Tour was as incredible as the coffee! We came around 9:30 in the morning because my sister from out of tow wanted to see it! Walking in we were greeted and asked if we wanted to go on the tour! Our guide Eric was absolutely fantastic, he was so kind to our children and made them feel included in the tour and was very knowledgeable about the business and coffee and a joy to listen to! Definitely would recommend coming and getting a tour here and a cup of coffee!

Kid-friendliness: Everyone was so kind and gracious to our children even when our 2 year old got a little scared of the loud sounds in the tour. Great place to get a cup of coffee and learn about coffee!“

“chill vibes, friendly service!“

“Amazing coffee! Will certainly have to return!“

“The butter biscuit!! Tis my favorite breakfast sandwich. If you haven’t tried, ya need to!! Oh - and the hash browns. Ya gotta get the hash browns. I am not a potato person. However - I love theirs.“

“Coffee beans are perfect. Owners and staff are always friendly and make great coffee. Dog bowl outside is always appreciated for our 4 legged friends. Great little local spot to enjoy good coffee and peaceful surroundings.

Vegetarian options: Both veggie and vegan options daily.“

“A great place to grab a quick breakfast or pastry and a coffee! There’s a variety of mochas and other unique drinks and lots of tables/seating. Food and drinks came out relatively quickly considering how busy it was!

Vegetarian options: Vegan burrito was delicious! But foods cannot be modified to make them vegetarian.“

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

“Bought a breve with some honey. Excellent taste! Not too bitter, not too sweet.

Lovely coffee place, price great for the quality of the coffee you’re buying! They use 1883 as their syrups that is from France and all natural! They also use organic espresso beans that they roast in house. Important to know, they employee people with disabilities giving them a place to work and gain that experience for future employments! This has just became my favorite coffee shop!

Kid-friendliness: They have little games and coloring books for the kiddos to play with! My son enjoyed playing tic tac toe!“

“First time trying the iced Blondie ! Sorry Starbucks but I found my new love for iced coffee ❤️“

“Great Event Space!!!❤️ A great place to come and have small events or just relax in the cafe and drink a beverage.“

“A wonderful place to get a delicious caffeinated beverage! I am so glad we stopped in, my daughter loved the blueberry muffin and spending time in the library while I worked on my computer in the adjoined coffee shop.“

“my husband and I have a little ritual coming to this Dutch every week when we run our errands together. Staff is friendly, and they work fast enough. Line busters are quick to come out to the line. I personally am a shy quiet gal so sometimes I avoid coming here if I'm by myself and not in the mood to chat, but I don't fault the baristas for it. Just maybe a note to management to let conversations be organic rather than forcing it on customers haha :')“

“very good coffee and great price.“

“the intentionality of the baristas here blows me away. i aspire to put the love and care into my craft that they do. i can't recommend this space enough. i had the best shot of espresso in my life from here and it truly changed the way i experience coffee“

“Highly recommend trying the seasonal specials on the menu - they never disappoint!“

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

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

“Ordered breakfast sandwich today, also have been here for coffee a few times. One thing I have to say is this place NEVER disappoints! The staff is always so kind and welcoming, the food is amazing and always such a fun menu/ variety of seasonal drinks including pastries!“

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

“Great coffee, great food and excellent customer service!“

“Simply delicious and supports a great cause.“

“I work out around the corner and I love their protein shakes, espresso shots and their pumpkin cookies are amazing.“

“Always great coffee, homemade pastries, liquor, beer and friendly, helpful staff! You will find both, travelers and locals. Check it out!“

“[Edit 24.07.2024] Not as busy as it used to be at lunch given all the new options in the area, but this is my favorite place to chill or have a good conversation with friends. The food is quality. This Triangle Park dog was awesome. Great atmosphere. Sit outside ifit'ss nice out. Great views of the park. [Edit 16.11.04] Recent remodel with wood replacing a lot of the stainless. Feels like they were able to add more seating. Much better flow at register. Give it a try if you haven’t been in a while.

Parking: Street, lot, or Union Hill Retail Parking garage.

Wheelchair accessibility: No impediments.“

“Great taste and service they serve...“

“A pleasant library experience. First of all I adore the scenery outside, it's a beautiful peaceful sight. There's plenty of parking space and it's always quiet when we go. The staff are friendly and welcoming, there's a good selection of books and the staff have been helpful when we had questions. The rest rooms are clean and tidy. Also, plenty of computers free to use and 10 cents per page to print with a fairly easy system to print. The children's area has plenty of seating and activities for children. My only issue is that there are computers for children to play with which is often distracting for my daughter as she ends up being less interested in finding books and more interested in playing the fun games on the screens. Other than that, I like this library and there's a lot more here I'm still yet to explore.“

“Absolutely the best blended drinks and more!! The people that work there are the absolute best. You will NOT find a better and friendlier group at any other Coffee location at all, probably in the entire world. In the words of some famous dude, Starbucks and Scooters can bite it!!“

“The baristas were absolutely wonderful! They were so kind, sweet, and very helpful in helping me decide which coffee to order. They also really hyped me up when I told them I'm an aspiring author. :) My visit here was so wonderful and made extra special by these wonderful people. Thank you for making my first trip to KC special!“

“Fantastic service - always kind even when the line is long. Great breakfast sandwiches with fresh ingredients made while you wait (not frozen and reheated). We love to grab coffee and a sandwich at 7 am on Saturdays and watch the City Market come to life.“

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

“Loved the yogurt parfait and iced chai. The almond croissant was amazing! The rooftop seating was the best. Definitely would return.“

“Vegetarian options: It's coffee and drinks. Alternative milks are an option.

Dietary restrictions: It's coffee and drinks. Alternative milks are an option.

Parking: Drive thru with lot for a number of friends to get into your car and then drive thru.

Kid-friendliness: For sure

Wheelchair accessibility: Drive thru“

“We love this little gem in downtown!!! My husband and I both had the "Weezy" burger and it had such a delicious, unique flavor. Loved the breading and the candied bacon on it and would totally order again! My lavender lemonade was so refreshing and we ended it with their delicious chocolates. We shared the blackberry champagne and the salted maple carmel. Highly recommended!“

“HomeGrown in the Power&Light district was incredible! We’re visiting the area and it sounds like they just opened this location at the start of the summer. So sad we aren’t visiting again soon to be able to support this awesome place! Delicious food, beautiful interior, great serving staff (Sadie was wonderful!!!)! 100% recommend!“

“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!“
