“I’m a breakfast lover! Everything was well seasoned and absolutely delicious! Can’t wait to try something different on the menu there’s so many options. I enjoyed the Biscuits and gravy, potatoes and onions, eggs, grits, French toast bacon and sausage OMG sooo good!“
“I come here frequently after getting groceries, one lady remembers me now and knows exactly what I order. I tried something new and it was delicious, I went to reorder it today and I accidentally ordered a tea instead of a latte. I did not like the tea and they made me a new drink even though it was my fault. I love this little shop! The Brown Sugar Boba Latte is my favorite. It is a small shop in downtown, so there arent a lot of places to park, which is to be expected. Good thing I walk everywhere. :)“
“If you've never been to Kitty's you need to stop reading these reviews and go right now.This is an amazing spot with a ton of history and has the best fast sandwich in KC. They don't skimp on the portion either, these are big sandwiches and they're 110% worth the money and wait.I love this spot and if you've never had it you're in for an absolute treat.“
“My first time in, and I found it to be charming. A bright and tidy place in a more historic part of town. The baristas were sweet and fun. If you get a drip coffee and choose to enjoy on premises, you pick out your own mug and get a free refill. It was a perfect Sunday morning stop.“
“Hey Kansas City! If you were looking for breakfast, brunch, and hot coffee in Kansas City....Happy Gillis is the place to check out! This popular local breakfast gem is cute, quaint, and covered with beautiful plants. There are a few tables to sit at inside of the cafe to enjoy your meal. A lot of people will order their food to go and will take it to the nearby park to have a picnic when it is warm or they will take their meal back home to enjoy! If you order in person, there is a refillable coffee stand when you can keep your coffee cup warm and full. My favorite item to order is the class biscuits & gravy with a side of bacon. Unbelievable! There are a lot of fresh and tasty options on the Happy Gillis Cafe & Hangout menu. Stop by this little spot today!“
“Food was really good. Service was quirky and attentive. My only complaint about anything was the lighting. They have weird blue lights that (see picture) make it difficult to read the menu and see the food. I had to guess a lot about the flavors. This was on the back patio. I'll be back but I'm bringing my glasses next time.“
“I've often wanted to check out Messenger Coffee in the Crossroads, but was concerned about parking and it being on Grand - Busy street. I was having a, "Let's Seize the Day", moment and decided to give it a shot. Parking was as taxing as I guessed, but I only had to walk half a block to get inside. The first floor is austere and clean, but not very welcoming in my opinion. I'm much more of a soft fabric with muted lighting kind of girl. Still, it has an old charm that I can see a lot of people appreciating. I grabbed a treat and tea then headed upstairs to find seating. The stairs are daunting, but they have an elevator to make things easier. The second floor was packed, but the rooftop with its view of the city and firepit was empty - Score! There was a bit of wind, but nothing that the huge firepit couldn't handle. I happily spent my Seize the Day morning sipping hot tea, eating a tasty treat, and enjoying the view on the Messenger Coffee on Grand's rooftop.“
“I got the vegetarian omelette with country potatoes and toast I couldn't finish it.Dietary restrictions: No extra salt added.. if I must say it they don't ad salt when cooking. Which I appreciated I was planning on my trip to be a cheat day and it ended up being an okay day in fact I don't think they added salt at all when they were cooking which I appreciated so any salt that was added I put on myself. Even still the flavor is great with the cheese and the vegetables but I'm used to not having salt everyone else season to your heart's content“
“I went a while ago, but this place was so cute and the staff was super nice. I got the prix fixe meal which came with a drink, entree, two sides, and a dessert for $20 which was amazing. I also love that they have changing lunch specials every week, it makes the menu really unique and you always have something new to try, and I did get a special as my entree. Everything I had was so good, and I have been trying to find the time to go back.“
“I have attended a variety of poetic/open mic events here and the atmosphere is top tier. I love how this space is welcoming and it's always set up a different way each time.A perfect spot to meet some awesome people. Nestled in the heart of the city.Menu is light yet fulfilling and delicious decafe options are always available.3 words one awesome feeling:Honey Lavender LatteBlissCheck them out!! :)“
“Cinnamon buns, guacamole toast, biscuits and gravy, breakfast burrito were all excellent. Their iced house coffee is good as well. Knocked off a star due to limited seating and when we ordered our coffee no one told us to wait at a counter (they deliver the rest of your food), so we ended up not getting that until we finally asked. When we did ask the server she just said oh they call your name (music plays loudly inside so no way you can hear unless you're right there) and leave it at the bar for you, and then she walked off.“
“This is an excellent and unique cafe serving interesting and delicious food and drinks. I tried the Spicey Mayan Mocha and it was fantastic. The combination of chili, cocoa and coffee was a new experience that elevates the classic Mocha. I also tried the Jalapeno and Cheese Tamale which was absolutely killer! Service was great and the interior was clean and welcoming.I will definitely make a return trip next time I'm in KCMO.Highly recommended!“
“Got The Standard breakfast sandwich & the Sausage & egg sandwich for breakfast, took a chipotle turkey wrap to go for lunch. ABSOLUTELY delicious. all of it. 10/10 would recommend and will go out of my way to eat here again. 100% worth the money.“
“Now, this is a natural food restaurant. Gigi puts her considerable culinary talents at the service of people who are already committed to eating healthy. Everything was fresh, high quality, minimally processed and delicious. She got my special order right and her recommendation of lavender mint tea was spot on. If you want a cafe that supports your wellness journey, check it out.“
“Everything here is incredibly delicious. Their cinnamon rolls are a perfect texture and have a great amount of cinnamon and glaze. Their breakfast sandwich (I get it with bacon) is on one of their super soft, perfect rolls. Their biscuits and gravy is amazing. Maybe my favorite place for breakfast right now.“
“The Fillmore Café is a hidden gem in the Lee's Summit area. A beautiful atmosphere, great coffee and cocktails, and kind and friendly baristas make it my favorite coffee shop. It's the perfect place to grab coffee and a snack with friends or business contacts. Not to mention, they feature local artists on their walls, and host live musicians on Thursday evenings. I've even rented their conference room for larger meetings, and it's always clean and affordable. It's a great place to hang out!“
“Heads up this is on the industrial side and it could startle people but I love the location it's safe enough just don't leave your car running or unlocked and you'll be fine. Anyways THESE SANDWICHES ARE AMAZING FOR $9 AND THE FRIES ARE FANTASTIC! you're wasting your life if you don't eat this once a “
“I’m so grateful to have a place like Midtown Kava! There are so many ways to treat yourself here - grab a tea/kombucha/soda, visit with friends in the cozy lounge, or get some products for home. I love the kava and hemp extracts for their superior quality and the CBD Shaman sparkling soda is a treat to have on hand at home. It’s an oasis that always brightens my day!“
“Went on a busy Saturday afternoon. Was able to have lunch, even though I was gluten-free because they had options which was fantastic. The sandwich was large and didn’t fall apart.As a non-coffee drinker, I was able to have options and still get some fun drinks like the Nitro Arnold Palmer.We sat at the counter, but there was plenty of seating, and even an additional conference room, and lots of people having mini book clubs, or studying or working on their computers.“
“Anytime I have people visiting from out of town, and they want to have a nice meal that isn't BBQ I take them here. The food, service and ambiance are always fantastic. Their menu is so different than anything around here and sitting in the dining room feels like sitting in a French restaurant.They have a rotating chef's special, a great deal on their steak frites on Tuesdays, delicious French desserts (home made profiteroles, say WHAT?! yum. And don't even get me started on their mille feuille when that is around... absolutely fabulous).The wine selection is great, they have a non alc option that seemed interesting but I decided to go with their non alc cocktail which was delicious. Cocktail menu is solid, and they even carry my favorite beer, Duvel which is such a European staple and not always easy to find in the city.“
“Classic Blends is such a cool vibe. I went there to get a gift for our mailman retiring. One of the owners helped us. She had great recommendations and was very knowledgeable in what would be a great choice. They even have their own brand of cigars!! The other location has live music on Fridays. Check them out!“
“Best small(er) venue in Kansas city in years - in content and atmosphere. It's only improving upon itself as well. I love the location as well - utilizing a part of this city that is underserved. Definitely one of the gems of kansas city at the moment.Vegetarian options: there is no food that i am aware of... maybe snacks / dessert / coffeeDietary restrictions: Coffee and booze - I didn't see any food - maybe some food trucks will catch on and park by it.Parking: street parking is easily found as there isn't much going on besides Farewell and Howdy in the neighborhood.Kid-friendliness: You can bring under 21 people as long as they have a parent or "guardian" with them who is of age. The sister venue / art space a few doors down "Howdy" is all-ages all the time. They have water available to all.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs of any sort and easily accessible for handicapped individuals.“
“?Excellent staff, drinks and pastries, they have delicious batch crew coffees.? The owners insist upon having three TVs behind the bar playing the *news* all day long.It conflicts with anything you might like to do in a coffee shop: Study, write, have a conversation with your friends, or just not see ads in front of your face constantly.Kinda sabotages the good work the baristas are doing.“
“They did a nice job redoing this place. Friendly staff. Good menu. Nice decorations. Very amicable atmosphere. Spacious table set up. Have to try the Philly cheesesteak.Went back today. I had the Philly cheesesteak & fries. My companion had the Reubens and fries. The server was quick and friendly. Food was delicious. The number of cars in the parking lot shows how many people are equally as pleased. Try Cafe Reflections out!Loved going again.“
“What a cute spot with amazing customer service! The lady at the register was so sweet. I told her it was my first time there, so she recommended some choices. I ended up ordering the classic brioche and an iced oat milk matcha latte. Both were delicious! The coffee shop was nice and roomy too with plenty of seating. Highly recommend!“
“The food is so delicious, the atmosphere is homey, and the people are so nice there. This was my first time trying Jamaican food. I got the oxtails dinner and the brown stewed chicken entree. Everything was seasoned to perfection. Chef's kiss “
“So my food was really slaty and it wasn't what me.and the waitress had discussed. I thought I was ordering corned beef hash and it turned out to be hauser potatoes with scrabled eggs, cheese, and some bacon. I did ask that it not come with peppers or onions but still, I was hoping for some corned beef hash.“
“We have been going here for years, and I did not realize I had not yet written a review to express how fantastic this place is. The food is nearly perfect. I do not think I can go here without getting the roasted feta, served in a cast iron pan topped with red onions, pepitas and amazing spices. It's also almost even better reheated at home. The olives are also the best I've had in Kansas City. My wife grew up where falafel originated, and yet she has stated that Extra Virgin's falafel is the best she has ever had. I've had many other dishes and just about everything is phenomenal. The one thing I would never want again is the chickpea fries. They have been on the menu for years, so I presume some folks like them, but they are not for me. The cocktails are great and they usually have some lesser known classics, such as a Sidecar. A while back they featured a pumpkin cocktail which was my wife's all-time favorite. The bar is fairly large, and I've found you don't always get the greatest service sitting there, but I've only ever had an actually bad experience once, and that was a couple years ago. I've never made my own official list, but I suspect that if I did, Extra Virgin would be in my Top 5 restaurants in the KC metro.“
“The lavender and bee pollen latte was delicious. Their decaf americano was Laos one of the best, very low acidity. The seating area is weird and limited. Lots of people were hoarding their booths, it could’ve fit 4 people but was taken over by 1 person.“
“I called at 3:30pm on a Thursday hoping to order 12 dozen donuts last minute for a work event the following day, everything was ready by 6:30AM Friday morning! Extremely appreciative of the willingness from staff to help me out on such short notice! 5 stars!“
“Love this location! The food is yummy, coffee is well made and service is friendly and fast. The barista, Abby, took care of us and made us feel at home. Will definitely be back to see her and have another mocha made by her! She was very knowledgeable about coffee and made great suggestions.Highly recommend this little cafe.I do want to add- I really wish they served decaf espresso. I would get a drink in the afternoons if so. I find it odd they don’t offer it!“
“Amazing food. Huge portions. Fast service even when packed. Been coming here for years. Very friendly. Lots of choices on the menuParking: It is in the heart of old downtown so parking is limited but there are several free parking lots within walking distance.“
“I really enjoyed this restaurant. Their staff was very nice and accommodating to my family and had great portions for the price!Kid-friendliness: I would say they are accommodating to kids but the establishment gives me the feeling of more adult oriented.“
“I want to live here so I can try everything on the menu…. Every amazing bite. We had incredible truffle eggs Benedict, Cuban confit pork Sandwich and zucchini corn fritter. - passionfruit curd tart. Every bite was amazing. Even the side of black beans was special. Best bacon I ever had.“
“I happened to find this while I was driving through Kansas City. I saw the amount of people in the restaurant and knew this must be a good place to eat. I stoped and was very happy with my choice. The food was fantastic and the service was quick and pleasant.“
“I would highly recommend checking this place out.A small menu with a good variety of choices.Had the mushroom toast and hibiscus limeade tea. One of the best mushroom dishes I have ever eaten, the tea was flavorful and refreshing.Honey oats desert was fire, bought four to take home.Staff was awesome.“

“Just had lunch catered from Thelma's. It was AWESOME! Very well liked by the meeting attendees & Owner. Had the slider sandwich tray, Pasta Salad, Green Salad, & Cookies, of course.This is a great organization. I was glad I was able to include a non-profit in our office catering. Thank you, Thelma's staff & volunteers.“
“Went in with my fiancé for help opening an account and was given amazing service from Shay and the rest one the Capitol One staff. We were greeted and given free drinks as well as a private room to talk to customer service with the help of Shay along the way. To further expand on the kindness, Shay followed up with us later, giving us her congratulations for the new job and move. I cannot recommend Capitol One enough!“
“I stopped in after visiting a few galleries at The Nelson Atkins and had a quick, enjoyable latte. The cafe area has a nice view of the north side of the museum and plaza park space. The coffee is good. If you are in need of a quick cup while visiting the museum, stop in!“
“Was looking for a coffee shop/place to hang out and dive deep with some friends and this was the perfect spot.They support local businesses and this where I got @teabiotics kombucha from. There’s a full bar in the back as well.Very cool spot to come and unwind.“
“Rudy was my server. He is the best server I've ever had at any restaurant. His infectious smile and genuine kindness always create the perfect mood for everyone. Ask for Rudy when you eat there and make sure to tip alot extra, because Rudy always gives extra to everyone.“
“Was in early and had a small wait due to only one person working and what seemed like a lot of orders being filled. Other than that, my tea was wonderful and very affordable due to a half off special. I will definitely be coming here again.“
“Cozy environment with lots of seating options. Yummy food, including vegetarian options. The lattes are delicious!Dietary restrictions: I’m pescatarian and lactose intolerant, but there was plenty for me to choose from!Parking: Free street parking, just drive slow, the street is a bit narrow!“
“If you want to be blown away by all things Kansas City, you MUST visit this store. I was recently visiting my Uncle in KC and he took me here. Luckily I hadn’t flown in to visit him because I bought so much paraphernalia it wouldn’t fit in my suitcase. The staff is great, especially Christopher, who clearly loves his job and his city. I can not wait to come back and experience more. 32/10 would definitely recommend!“
“I tried this spot when I was craving something sweet. I had the crème brûlée boba and it was delicious, sweet but not sugar packed and refreshing. The store was clean, chic and the service was quick! It's definitely a must try if you're in the area shopping!!“
“I met a couple of friends for coffee and pastries and the whole experience was so pleasant! The person who took my order was super friendly. The coffee hit the spot and was everything I wanted. We tried several pastries and all of them were delicious. We were able to sit on the patio and enjoy the weather and the whole visit was perfect!“
“I had put this little cafe on my radar for a long time. It's the same location where Benetis coffee experience used to be. Anytime I thought about it, it was after they closed, or sometime after 3. I had wanted to try their lunch and or breakfast last week, but unfortunately they had a water main break . Today, my husband and I finally made it for breakfast and our usual (work on laptop), and I am glad we finally did show up. We both had the French toast sampler, and it was pretty good. They do serve their food on to go containers, which is fine (cuts down on trash, and washing dishes, so I consider this place very eco friendly).The drip coffee we had was pretty good. The coffee comes from Messenger, and although this is a good thing I felt that the brew was slightly on the week side, but not drastically so. The ambience is very relaxing and the music wasn't very loud, a little jazzy and groovy. Nice place to come for an intimate chat or to do some early/afternoon work.“
