“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 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.“

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

“This is my favorite coffee shop in all of the KC metro. The vibes ALWAYS vibe and the community that always gathers in there is such a breath of fresh air. I drive 20 minutes to get there and I'd drive an hour, daily, to keep going if I had to. Thank you Renegade Team! Incredible space! 💙“

“This Cafe has a great vibe. It's a wonderful place to dine in. Today I had the jalapeño Ruben and honey lavender macha. Delicious 🔥💯“

“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!“

“Last week I stopped into Deviant Kava in downtown Parkville and tried one of their specialty lattes — the Samoan Hotspot. It’s a mix of Ghirardelli chocolate with a little serrano pepper kick, which sounds unusual but was actually really good. The shop itself is inside one of Parkville’s historic houses at 405 Main St, which makes it a cozy place to sit by the window and enjoy a drink while walking through downtown. One of my favorite parts of working in real estate here is getting to explore local spots like this and share them with people who are discovering Parkville for the first time. If you’re in the area, it’s definitely worth stopping in.“

“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!“

“Stopped at this quaint coffee spot in KC to get my mom some much needed coffee! We got there around 10am and there was a line out the door. Don’t let that deter you! Their service was friendly and efficient! A line just means the coffee is good! ;). Ample parking and seating to enjoy your drink or wait for it to be made. My mom ordered a Bean Bean (brown sugar) espresso - she said it was strong likes she wants and not overly sweet, which she also prefers.“

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

“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.“

“Amazing atmosphere and great coffee“

“Motorcycle meets every Sunday, great coffee roasted in-house 30' from the register, and a chill retro vibe. Worth a trip if you ride or want to look at some cool bikes. About 50% Harleys, 50% everything else. Retro Triumphs, sport, dirt, and adventure bikes...everyone is welcome.“

“Amazing food and service.. The soup was absolutely to die for ❤️“

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

“Excellent coffee, friendly service, and cute atmosphere“

“amazing selection of vinyls!!! the lavender italian soda with cream was shockingly good🤍yummy treats and sick vinyls, posters, and zines! i was so impressed with their world vinyl collection and managed to snag one i didn’t think i’d find! thank you ☺🫶🏼“

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

“Amazing coffee! Will certainly have to return!“

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

“DELICIOUS!!! We got the Spicy Mayan and the Aztec mochas and they’re so tasty! They are on the sweeter side so I will likely get an extra shot next time. We also got the beef empanadas, breakfast empanada, and cheese bread. All the choices were delicious and we were swooning over the chimichurri sauce! Will definitely be back!“

“chill vibes, friendly service!“

“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.“

“I gave them 5 stars minus 1 for not updating website because everything about it looked awesome but sadly , we got there on a thursday morning , and it wasn't even open even though it said it was open on website. We drove a half an hour to get there and were pretty disappointed. So you might call first to make sure that they're actually open when they say they're going to be.“

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

“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.“

“This wonderful place is a must visit! The space itself is beautiful (with lovely murals and a charming book selection on offer to buy), the coffee drinks are delicious and original, and the food is transcendent: it really could not have been tastier or more creative. All the staff were very helpful and nice: a huge KC highlight!“

“Love the red bean latte. Solid baked good selection if you arrive early enough, but the Burritos are legendary. Note for chai latte drinkers: it is very anise-forward. (Personally I'm a fan, but I know anise isn't everyone's fave). Great vibes, kind staff, and there's always juuuuuust enough seating!“

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

“Everything about this location is so unique, beautiful and very tastefully done! I have never had anything from here that did not eclipse what you could imagine about pastries and coffee! 10 out of 10 recommend!“

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

“Had a wonderful experience this afternoon at Parkville Coffee. Friendly staff, wonderful coffee and macaroons. Would definitely come back next time we’re in the area. Thank you for being so welcoming. 😄“

“very good coffee and great price.“

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

“The absolute definition of a cunty little European coffee shop- this one is for the girls. Every touch from the curated book collection, to the photography, to the cozy nooks and corners is so thoughtfully curated- you can tell a lot of heart and soul went into designing the space. It has a luxury to it without being tacky- such a difficult balance that they have achieved beautifully. On top of that, the food and drink selection is above and beyond. A Chartreuse Latte?? Yes thank you I think I will. I highly recommend trying a bite to eat as well- we had the broccoli bake and it was divine, and we can't wait to try the rest of the menu.

They have really nailed the perfect combination of chic and cozy. A super cute, romantic spot to set up your laptop, or chill with your friends, or read a novel. We always love supporting local coffee spots, and we will definitely be back.“

“Stopped here for breakfast before leaving KC - so worth it! The cinnamon roll, gooey butter cake, and breakfast hash were delicious! This place was highly recommended and I can see why. The hot mocha latte I got was great too! The place was packed and busy but they weee FAST on getting food and drinks out.“

“I had a tiktok pop up for Origin on my FYP, and luckily it was only 10mins from my place! I'm new to matcha and have been wanting to try a banana matcha in KC for awhile. There's is DELICIOUS! It has real banana in it and isn't artificial at all. I will definitely be back 🙂‍↕❤“

“This location of DB is the absolute best. Best in food, drinks, customer service, pup cups, and conversation. And look, one of the “Basket Winner” returned wearing the shirt she won with me and brought her 3D printed wand to make her first purchase using the wand at this DB. Keep up the great works guys!!!!“

“The best spot around for boba! The staff is incredibly helpful with recommendations, and they always guide me to the perfect choice. I stop by at least three times a week to satisfy my boba cravings.“

“great coffee! awesome Hot cocoa!“

“Today was my husband and I’s first time trying Dutch Bros. We went to the Dutch Bros on Antioch Rd in Kansas City. We were greeted by good music and a friendly gentleman named Aaron. He was polite and patient with us as we decided which drink would be best to try first. He gave us the wonderful recommendation of trying the Blended Fruit Punch with the sour candy straw and it did not disappoint. It was tasty, exciting and our new favorite beverage on the market! Although the drink was amazing, Aaron will be the reason why we will keep coming back! Thank you Aaron for being awesome and kind.“

“You literally can't miss this place because of the giant airplane parked on top of the building. I came by The Roasterie Factory Cafe for a quick afternoon pick-me-up and loved it. I got a classic cold brew and it was incredibly smooth and bold without being overly bitter.

The inside is massive, super industrial-cool, and has tons of seating if you actually want to sit down and get some work done. The staff was really efficient and friendly even though they were pretty busy. It's a Kansas City classic for a reason—definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area!“

“Great service! DELICIOUS LATTES! And always have the most beautiful flowers.“

“What a wonderful first visit. Food was yummy and service was great. Loved sitting on the patio with my family.“

“Best host/server Ariana! Food was great. Drinks weren't very strong little watery not bad after ordering the passion fruit margarita was really good. I will say my coffee drink was good not much rum but still tasty. Food options were very good and satisfing.“

“Amazing flavors to simple foods and the lemonade is superb.“
