Hot Chocolate was Amazing and reasonably priced. Definitely a place to enjoy Pastries and Coffee. Staff was friendly and hard working. Very steady business.

We happen to go to this place many times, and we like their coffee in general however, it was in the case this time I took my kids and my other family with me to enjoy your hot chocolate. We were in the line for quite some time and our hot coffee hot chocolate was made. However, the hot chocolate was not even warm. It was almost cold. I told the server that my hot chocolate is not even warm. She said the upper layer would be not warm but as you separate it's gonna be hot Disappointed because the kids didn't like it I would have appreciated a better answer or had them made me a new hot chocolate, rather. they have a cool ambience though. It looks like a really nice coffee place but I would have appreciated the service better even though there were a lot of people and I know it's Christmas time.

The way they hand out drinks is confusing, orders get mixed up, they forgot to even make one drink I ordered until I reminded them and another drink was supposed to be white chocolate and raspberry flavored but it tasted like nothing until the very end because 90% of the syrup was sitting at the bottom and was undrinkable. The pastries are good though

First, let's talk about the staff that are absolutely wonderful human beings!!!! Completely went out of the way to help me. The coffee is amazing. I loved my shot of espresso!!! I'm looking forward to trying the winter blend mix they just came out with at home!

A must stop if you visit Union Station. The coffee is some of my favorite in KC and the pumpkin scone was better than I imagine.
Very nice spot for a cup of coffee, especially if you appreciate a ceramic

Union Station is a beautiful building and a very pleasant albeit somewhat echoey atmosphere for a coffee shop. Parisi is a top coffee name in KC in my opinion and this particular shop doesn’t disappoint. The lattes are the right temp (immediately drinkable) and creamy of froth. A friend from out of town having his first mocha with oat milk raved about it - several times! I wish they would offer to do ceramic mugs for customers planning to drink at the café, but that would be my only negative

Stood outside the gate waiting for the Barista to open up. It said Sunday 6:30am and at 6:45am I was still waiting while the Batista was having her coffee. I had to leave to catch the train at 6:50am. All I can say is I hope this Barista enjoyed her coffee and you have lost my business.

Great Baristas and super friendly service! The Cortado was spot on, great flavor, steamed perfect, and temperature served was just right. I purchased a bag of beans and one of the baristas gave me a bag of a blend roast they do. Again great shop and a great cup of coffee in a neat spot.

Kansas City is home to a number of remarkable coffee cafes; local, boutique gems with authentic, helpful servers and flavorful pours. Parisi is not among them. Aside from Union Station, this place is dispiriting. The servers are lifeless; responding to your presence like you've disrupted and imposed upon their precious time. The coffee is middling and overpriced with the worst offender being perhaps the Affogato which is undersized, scrawny and meek; akin to eating a ping pong ball out of a Dixie cup. The grand impeccable Union Station is this location's only saving grace.
