Kudos to the staff for being the best and to Scooters for having endless ways to make a perfect latte for any occasion or weather! 🤎🧡💛“

“I was visiting Kansas City for a conference and my Pops took me to the classic blends, cigar and coffee lounge! This place is a whole vibe! Great owner, great bartenders, and a great array of cigars. They even had a lived band the Friday night we went. I will definitely be back and appreciated the good time!“

“I love this place! I’m not much of a cigar smoker, but I do enjoy one every once in a while, and this spot is perfect for it. The atmosphere is comfortable, and the drinks are amazing. Every now and then, they even have live music, which adds to the great experience.“

“We grabbed some shaved ice (mangoñada & horchata flavors) for the kids at a concert in the park- it was the perfect treat for a summer night! When we first arrived there was a crazy line & they got everyone their treats so quickly too. The mint limeade was to die for ✨“

“Was passing through and stopped by this location and Brogan , jabi and Sasha were very friendly and helpful . Gave me good recommendations and were always smiling and super friendly with everyone who came in . Best Starbucks experience ever . They all shined like a diamond .“

“I will always recommend this McDonald’s, the morning staff is always super friendly. The only problem I have today. Is I ordered a steak, egg and cheese bagel and I got an egg and cheese bagel. No steak at all. Other than that, it’s an awesome store. I have pics but it won’t let me add them“

“Hagámoslo simple… tengo que regresar a este sitio!!…“

“This little local gem is such a gift to Kansas City! The coffee is phenomenal, food delicious, but NOTHING beats the warmth and inclusion the staff offers freely to each guest! I always leave this beautiful establishment with a full heart, and the sustenance I need to make it through another day of caring for the KCMO community. Thank you, Anchor Island, for loving us so well! We love you! ⚓️ 🏝️🥹💖“

“I’ve heard of Equal Minded in the past, but recently a friend hosted an event there and it was great! The space was easy to set up in, the coffee and snacks were great & the customer service. Since then, if I am in the area and I need to get work done, it’s becoming more of a place to pop into. The more I get to know about what they offer and the small businesses they support, the more I enjoy becoming a customer there. I also really like that they have some Sugar Free options & I really like their Honey Lavender Matcha too!“

“I have been dying to try this place but it is way across town for me. It was well worth the trip. I got “The Mind Latte” a mushroom concoction with mushroom cold foam. This is unique, creative and tasty. The whole vibe is awesome. I am so happy I made the trip. I will be back.“

“I try to explore local eateries and coffee shops whenever I’m on work trips, and I have to hand it to Fitti’s. The atmosphere is so homey and cozy, the coffee was amazing and I also tried one of their brownies - everything was fantastic. The day I visited was kind of rainy, so the vintage lights glowing and the soft music playing was reminiscent of when I watch those “coffee shop jazz” videos on YouTube. I’m excited to return!“

“Great coffee, food and staff. Will definitely be back!“

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

“I stumbled upon this little shop after begging the GPS to find the closest coffee shop on my way to work. Being greeted by a calm, sweet, warm eyed pup and great coffee was just what I needed. I will definitely be making this a regular stop. The coffee is great (I had an iced mud pit) and the biscuits and gravy were the perfect comfy breakfast! Highly recommend checking this place out!“

“I forgot her name but the barista was super helpful and really sweet, she even suggested a bookstore for me and my girlfriend to go after. I got the raspberry macha and blueberry scone, both were delicious.
Highly recommend, reasonably priced and a dope atmosphere“

“I stopped into Waterbird Coffee in downtown KC and ordered a brown sugar cinnamon latte, and it was absolutely delicious, especially on a cold day. The balance of sweetness and warm spice was spot on, and the espresso flavor still came through nicely in every sip. The cafe itself has a warm, inviting vibe that makes it an ideal spot to thaw out and relax for a bit. 5/5 and highly recommend making a stop here for a comforting cup of coffee—get the brown sugar cinnamon latte if you need something cozy and satisfying.“

“Pleasant visit. Enjoyed our coffee on the rooftop patio which made for a fun experience, employees were kind and helpful.“

“Amazing atmosphere and great coffee“

“On December 8 (the sad anniversary of John Lennon’s assassination), Babs told me about a coffeehouse that she’d read about in Kansas City Magazine. “Sounds like your kind of place.” On Saturday the 9th, I stopped by & was smitten. The coffee was terrific. The place had a funky yet welcoming vibe. Today 12/15/23, I invited my coffee ☕️ group to meet there & they were equally impressed. We’ll be back.“

“This is a lovely spot for coffee, bite to eat, and a cozy environment.“

“Seleno is definitely a nice find in an interesting area that looks like an old college or business park. The coffee menu is fairly standard for a specialty shop and I'm happy to report that they can execute a traditional cappuccino well.“

“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.“

“This place was phenomenal! The food first of all was excellent fresh and made from fresh ingredients! The service was beyond great. They have taught these young people how to respond properly to the public. It's a great place to catch a bite to eat have a cup of coffee and meet up with friends ! You are also promoting the skills of culinary arts for foster kids who age out of the system ! I give this place five stars“

“Really great coffee and food!!“

“This record store/ coffee shop is a rare gem. We were blown away by the selection of vinyl from all different genres. We didn't have coffee, so no review about that, but the coffee bar area looked clean and welcoming. The owner took the time to help us select a record from a local band. We're from out of town and wanted to take a gift back for a friend. He asked us a few questions and helped us make the selection. He knew a lot about the local music scene and was friendly.“

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

“I come to Kansas once.a year. The standard only gets better.

Cafe Corazon, a place full of peace and tranquility, bringing nations together. No fighting, no ugliness, only people of every nation comming to experience drinks and foods, found nowhere else. People gathering together for the taste of love, with which everything there is done.
Ignasius , thank you for the wonderful experience. You enjoy what you do and it shows as ypu interact with the people!

My first comment : Wow! Best coffee I've had since arriving here a week ago. Cafe Bombin. Beef empanadas was so tasty. Clean. Ambience is peaceful and inviting. Lady serving was friendly. Will be back for sure.“

“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.“

“The very best coffees in the northland. Maybe even in the city. Cookies not bad either. Staff friendly.“

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

“Blake was so helpful to my sister and I who have never had boba tea before!! Such a great experience and such great help!!“

“The spinach feta croissant and the horchata latte are absolutely buss. This place is soooo good and the bathroom is really nice too. I would say there was a decent amount of people here today like it was poppin but the baristas got everything out so quickly. This place is #goatstatus please come here. I don't have any pictures of the food because i lowkey inhaled it but here's a pic of the crumbs 👀“

“We adore our neighbors at Sway! We grab a coffee here nearly every day and brew our own with their beans when they are closed. They are a brilliant addition to the neighborhood, the smell of beans roasting in an inviting place to grab a beverage and a McLain’s bakery treat.“

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

“I did not try their food. I had an oat milk latte with mocha flavoring. The coffee flavor is rich and delicious. The mocha flavor was tasty, but absolutely not at all overwhelming, so the coffee is able to shine. Not overly sweet. Highly recommend!“

“Our first time here and Breakfast & Coffee was delicious. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“very good coffee and great price.“

“My name is Fares Alves, and I am a coffee producer from Brazil.
I would like to introduce our Brazilian green coffee (unroasted and unground), which will soon be available for export to the United States.
Our coffee is produced in Minas Gerais, one of Brazil’s main coffee-growing regions, in a mountain area at approximately 1,100 meters of altitude.
This high-altitude environment provides a mild climate and slow cherry maturation, resulting in coffees with good sweetness, balance, and a clean cup profile.
We work with careful harvesting and well-controlled post-harvest processes, focusing on quality and consistency. Our coffees are suitable for both specialty and premium commercial roasters.
We would be happy to share more details, such as:
Coffee varieties
Processing methods
Crop availability and volumes
Samples for evaluation
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in learning more about our coffee or discussing a potential partnership.
Best regards,
Fares Alves

“Delicious crepes and great coffee! Love the atmosphere. The owners buy fair trade coffee and in their private life spend time working with an organization that helps orphans overseas.“

“Hands down one of the best coffee shops I’ve had this year!!! I have no recommendations!! That snores latte was so heavenly omgggg!! The pastry was so flaky, soft, and yummy. The biscuits and gravy, the most perfect portion paired with coffee. Everyone there was so niceee and honest with recommendations!!! I’ve recommended this place to a lot of people.“

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

“My husband and I come here every weekend with our dog to enjoy breakfast burritos and lattes on the patio. We love the convenience of ordering online and picking up our order in the store, and I meet clients there whenever possible. It's cozy, cute, and delicious, with something for everyone on the menu. Five stars! *****“
