There is a great local coffee shop, part of the messenger coffee group if you're familiar with them. Extensive food and peppers choices and that even offered me a free refill and coffee because I asked comfortable seating. The only downside is the toilets are limited so you got a plan ahead. read more

Black Dog is always packed, and it's for a reason. They do coffee RIGHT! The girl who took my order was very friendly and patient when I was deciding my order. (Also if there is a line, power through it. They move very quick here) Maybe because we came on a Saturday, it was very crowded. We still found a seat but it is a little loud for a coffee shop. I enjoyed how they had some comfortable seating options tucked away in hidden corners to combat this. The portions are good sizes that match the quality of the items. The toast came on this very thick, in-house bread that was the star of the show. I wish there was a little more lemon or salt with the avocado, but it was still good none the less. My friend got a jam toast, which we both preferred over the avocado. As the the coffee, I about died it was so good. Don't judge Coca Cola and espresso until you have tried it! This is a drink that hasn't really made its way to the Midwest, so I was ecstatic when I looked on the season menu and saw that Dogtor's Orders featured cherry coke, espresso and cherry cold foam. It came out as pretty as it tasted, and I'm already thinking of my next one. When you stop by, definitely glance at the seasonal coffee board propped in front of the checkout. Those will be your best options and they don't last forever, so try it while you can. Only reason I didn't elevate this review to a five star is because the prices here are a little steep and can add up even more with modifications. read more

Went to Blackdog before heading to the Overland Park Botanical Garden and wanted something quick to eat and drink beforehand. The service was super fast. I ordered and had my drink within a minute, and my food came out shortly after. I ordered the Vanilla Sky specialty latte and the Sunrise sandwich. The latte was pretty mediocre, not bad but not great either. The coffee itself didn't taste anything special, and for the price I was expecting a little more from it. The sandwich, though, was really good. Everything was cooked perfectly: velvety runny egg, crunchy bacon, melted gouda (although I couldn't taste it much), and an earthy basil mayo. All the flavors worked really well together, and it was a solid-sized sandwich too. My biggest issue was the price. I spent over $20 here, and honestly I feel like I could make a sandwich and coffee similar to this at home for cheaper and probably better. read more

If you're in the neighborhood, I'm sure you'll find something to try here. Part of the coffee shops owned under Messenger, you'll immediately recognize the brand. You are definitely paying premium for your drink but especially the baked goods as their bread is all made in house by Ibis Bakery. Now more than one barista helped me review the massive menu. Payton ended up taking my order: CBS with MIXED GREENS, MATCHA TEA and a MUDSLIDE made with SOY MILK! The space is very large with multiple seating areas, quiet corners, plenty of open dining and enclosed room dining as well. It has a walkthrough to the bakery side along with mini store selling cups, Messner Farms merchandise and more. Now I really enjoyed my CBS: marinated chicken, bacon, red onion, cheddar cheese, tomato and chipotle mayo on brioche potato roll.. sounds pretty good huh! It was devine! Those combined ingredients made for one of the best chicken sandwiches hot or cold (because I could finish it in one sitting) I've had! Now I picked at the chicken solo and it didn't have too much flavor but as a sandwich everything comes together well! I wasn't too impressed with the Mudslide.. it was dreary, no hit of chocolate or creme so I'm not sure what it was supposed to be. My mom said the match with honey syrup was decent. Everything for the price definitely ensured my only trip. read more

Popped in for my reading hour today. They have a pretty solid iced chai. The muffin wasn't bad, but definitely had different textures inside and out. That was disappointing for a $5 muffin. I liked the separate seating room. There was plenty of space and tables available. read more

Black dog coffee house holds a very special place in my heart because this was the first actual coffeehouse I went to in the United States. It has been the one of the most comforting and clean spaces with a calm, cozy and inviting vibe. They have served consistently good coffee and always have tasty bakery products like breads, cakes, croissants to offer, all fresh and satisfying!!! I always go for the cafe caramello coffee with oat milk and their sugar free syrups of vanilla and caramel. Also, I always love pairing it with rich flaky and golden almond croissant filled with almond compote inside for crunchy moist flavor. Apart from these options, they have a lot more drinks, food options to offer. This is a perfect for relaxing, meeting friends, or just enjoying some quiet time. The staff has always been friendly and kind and are always ready to hear your drink specifications which elevates the experience. Highly recommend this coffee house to everyone! read more

Such an amazing coffee and breakfast experience! The vibes of this large coffeehouse and bakery so vast. One section is totally secluded for studying or working while the other is in a working bakery where you can see bread being made! I enjoyed the matcha, it was a little sweet which was a nice flavor. The coffee cake was moist and thick. I also ordered biscuits and gravy, which was unique because I think the sausage was a chorizo. It was yummy. I liked that you order at the counter. It made the ordering process super quick read more

Second time trying this place. Ordered a medium iced latte with oat milk and hazelnut. The coffee was basically white in color and had little coffee flavor. It tasted like it had maybe one shot of espresso in it. For food I ordered the veggie sunrise sandwich. It wasn't terrible but it also lacked a lot of flavor. I could barely taste the cheese and the bread was very dry. Not to mention I came with my boyfriend and it was almost $50 for our two drinks and two breakfast sandwiches. If you are an actual espresso fan I would not recommend this place. read more

I wasn't sure what I'd order despite me having looked at the menu prior to arrival, but I purchased the avocado toast, (the bread is thick, but it's not dense, so it was okay, though I'd have preferred it thinner, it didn't detract from the overall flavor), and Fall Specialty Coffee, Horchata Crème Brûlée. Both were delicious! Service was excellent! We opted to sit outside since the morning temps allowed us to do so, and it wasn't too crowded when we gathered. By the time we left, the Sunday crowd began to arrive. Not too noisy outside, and of course, dogs aren't allowed inside, but there were plenty of cute "pups" outside! ;) read more

I've heard rave reviews of Black Dog from friends for years, and I finally had a chance to stop in today - I can't believe I've slept on this coffee shop for so long! They have a great menu with something for everyone - coffee, espresso drinks, teas and more. I opted for a specialty drink, an iced Snickers latte, and ohmygoodness it was AMAZING. I'm hooked! Service was friendly and pretty speedy for a busy Sunday morning. They have plenty of seating indoors and out, and I took advantage of the patio to enjoy my drink. I will definitely be stopping in again soon and recommend you do, too! read more

Black Dog is a great coffee house! I have been here a couple of times and both visits were great! We ordered at the counter and the team was friendly and helpful. Our drinks came out quickly and they were delicious! The beans here must be magical! My latte was smooth and flavorful! The inside is massive and there is a ton of seating options inside and out! Great service, great coffee! read more

The extension of Messenger Coffee is always the perfect decision. On a warm summer day cold winter afternoon Black Dog has the perfect coffee pick me up and season sandwich that satisfies every time! Today's beverage is a Breve. All Messenger locations make the perfect Breve. It the right roast, grind and steamed half and half. Paired with a Roast Beef and Brie sandwich was exactly what I needed today. read more

My father was super excited to take me here after a long day. He had nothing but good things to say. Sadly the employee that we delt with was extremely cold, impolite and was rushing us even though we were the only people in line ( he seemed to want to get back to the convo he was having with the other employees) We sat inside for a minute but I got uncomfortable due to the dirty looks from the employee so we left. He had no name tag on, but had blonde short hair and glasses. The we ordered was good but would have been better warmed, he didn't offer that as an option for us and I was to uncomfortable to ask after everything else. read more

Having a very active little guy, I am always looking for places to get my caffeine fix and something to eat. We were in the area and came across BD Coffeehouse. It's probably good we don't live in the area because I would be there frequently. Their pastry and bread selections are impressive. I loved the berry crumble bar, breakfast sandwich, coffee cake and the Cafe Carmelo Latte. read more

There are so many options on the menu! I got coffee and the Dr Pepper coffee with a cinnamon roll. Everything was delicious, and it was ready in no time with the quick staff. I stayed for a while with the free WiFi, so I liked how many seating options they also had. It never got too loud, but I was also never out of seating options. The space was clean and accessible. The back room was very cold. read more

True matcha here! Also the chai is phenomenal, not too sweet if you don't want the sugar. Only thing missing is coconut milk option for my sister haha I like the soy blend or could go for almond milk option. Great bakery items since theyre connected to ibis bakery and all the yummy bread bakes in the room with you read more

I enjoy going to this coffeehouse with a friend who lives close by to the coffeehouse. It is always packed when we go on a Saturday morning. Coffee drinks and food-breakfast foods and pastries have always been delicious. It is a large space so we can always find a place to sit. The workers are very nice and helpful. read more

I generally wait after visiting a couple times to write a review and Black Dog has been consistent each time. The absolute ONLY negative about this place is how packed it gets, which is only showing how great they are, but hard when you go to work. Most of the coffee shops around only offer a couple pastry options with coffee, but not here. There are full sandwiches, toast options, salads, cakes, there is something for everyone. Today, I needed a good breakfast and ordered the Sunrise Sandwich and a Caramel Latte. The lattes are smooth and a perfect blend of bitter vs sweet. The sandwich was just what I needed, something with protein that wasn't sweet. There are tables scattered all over, some having outlets and some do not, which does make it hard when there are so many people. Overall, this is one of the best coffee shops in the KC area for food and quality of coffee. read more

I would not recommend this place. I've had the best coffee all over the United States and this has no flavor. I basically paid $10 for a small cup of milk. I paid another five dollars to add a shot of espresso and it still didn't give it much flavor. I can always tell the places that don't roast their own beans. This is one of those places people take pictures of the COFFEE and put them on Instagram, there was one staff member who tried to help me. She was friendly my issues with the coffee flavor, or lack there of I will not be returning and wish I had a refund. read more

One of my go-to spots--always solid. Today I got the country toast, biscuit sandwich with egg, and a vanilla sky latte. Everything was delicious, as usual and arrived quickly. Cozy vibe, great food, and the coffee never misses. read more

As we stepped inside, we noticed that there were options: options to sit and work/study and options to get cozied up with a nice book and drink. The staff were very friendly and patient as we decided what we wanted to order. I decided to order an iced matcha latte with oat milk and asked for a sweetener similar to French vanilla. This is a hard drink to make but they did a good job! I would've liked the matcha to be mixed a bit more and for it to be a bit sweeter. Overall, this is a great place to go and meet up with friends or study! read more

Black Dog Coffeehouse - Iced matcha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

I really like this place! I can always count on a decent matcha and a yummy baked good! My only reason for this being 4/5 is because I wouldn't necessarily consider it dog friendly like it is labeled here on Yelp. It is a dog friendly patio technically, but probably will come without my pup in the future. Overall a great place to get some work done or meet a friend. read more

Wow! Convenience and quality are the two words I would use to describe Black Dog Coffeehouse. I am a huge fan of being able to order my coffee in advance, especially when it's a new place and I don't know how busy it will be. When I got there, the place is spacious and very nicely designed. The barista was helpful when I asked where online pickup was. When another employee saw me struggling to grab all of my items she showed me where the drink holders were. I decided to enjoy my burrito on site. I love breakfast burritos, but it is so hard to find them around here with my two favorite ingredients: Chorizo and potatoes. They put both in theirs! I also loved their verde salsa, though it does seem to have some sort of sauce in the burrito already. I went on a Sunday morning so it wasn't busy, I've heard it can get crowded during peak times. I would say to pick an off time to go visit it for the first time, you won't regret it! read more

This is one of my fav coffee shops for several reasons: it's on the Ks side (yay!), best treats and coffee every time, people are cool and I love to grab a chair and work on my laptop with the buzz around me. It's on the regular rotation. read more

Cool vibe inside, food okay enough to sit on the patio if sunny. Breakfast burrito and a pastry I can't spell.

I have been to Blackdog a few times before and have had positive experiences. For a coffee shop that serves Messenger coffee and Ibis baked goods they should have the same standards as Messenger. I ordered a cappuccino that should be a standard 6oz. They made it into a 8oz which is just diluting the coffee with extra milk. I could have dealt with that but the espresso was so bitter. It is clear that the barista staff is untrained and just pumping out coffee orders. This location needs to slow down and do some quality control. Will not be returning for coffee. read more

Black Dog Coffeehouse - Burnt, bitter espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

Went here in the morning before I had to meet a client. The only negative that I could find was this place is BUSY!! When I arrived there was a line of about 6 people in front of me. Line wasn't super long time wise. Drinks came out fairly quickly and had great flavor. I had ordered a breakfast sandwich and it was very good, the bread was light and fluffy. I ended up getting one of the last seats at the time. The whole time I was there people were coming and going at the counter, not a lot of seat opened up. If you are looking for a place to site and chat while you drink your coffee this would be a great place. If you are looking for a place to site and work, this place is a fairly loud and extremely busy. They also have fresh bread that you can buy at the counter however I didn't buy any so I can't say what the flavors were like. read more

So good I came back 2x in one week. Tried the honey lavender latte and the mudslide latte and both very very smooth and tasty. Not bitter at all! The staff is super accommodating and helpful despite always being busy. I tried a sample of their jalapeño cheese popper and it was an Amazon price of bread, perfect for a sandwich! I tried a little bit of their sunrise sandwich, biscuits and gravy, and their cranberry toast with almond butter and all came out made nicely, prepared beautifully, and tasted amazing. It's super cool to see Ibris preparing their pastries in the other room. Very comfy coffee shop with PLENTY of seating and different vibes. read more

Still a favorite in our house and a go-to spot with my mom. I love coming with family and splitting a few entrees - this lets my mom and I have both sweet and savory options. Some of our go-tos are the sunrise sandwich, any of the toast offerings (all are good - always fun when there is a a seasonal option), and the biscuits and gravy. The place is almost always packed, especially during peak hours. There is a varity of seating available, but grabbing a table can be tricky when it's busy. Always a great spot, but it is a pricer option. We can spend nearly $40 for two entrees and two coffees. However, it is worth it once in awhile, the the quality of the food is unmatched! read more

Love this coffee house! The staff is always friendly and I'm impressed that many of the same faces have been there for years. Don't sleep on the best avocado toast I've ever had.

Disclaimer: only got a drink and didn't try their food (a regret - the pastries looked delicious and I've heard they're great). That said, my latte was solid - super foamy and I love how they use a local roaster. Barista had our drinks ready super speedy and we found a comfy spot despite it being packed! read more

My first and only time I will visit the Black Dog Coffeehouse. I had no idea what to order so I asked the person taking my order what she thought of the biscuits and gravy. She said her favorite. The biscuits were thick and somewhat dry, They waved the gravy spoon over the biscuits. There was barely enough gravy to cover one biscuit and certainly not enough for the second biscuit. I won't be back! read more

It's a nice, hipster coffee shop. I. My opinion everything is insanely overpriced. I spent $20 for a chai and a chicken salad sandwich. The chair was fine. The chicken sandwich had barely any chicken salad on it. Mostly bread and lettuce. read more

Black Dog is a spot that i have stopped at several times over the last decade when in that area of Johnson County. Yesterday was the first time that I have enjoyed my beverage in-house. They are usually packed, so I do a grab and go. Black Dog is actually a pretty cool little space for being in a strip mall in Lenexa. One of the oldest "independent" coffee shops in Johnson County, it has grown quite a following pumping out solid beverages, and over the top baked goods from Ibis Bakery. They have recently joined the umbrella group that owns Messenger, The Roasterie, and The Filing Stations...Black Dog is now in the big leagues with corporate support without having to sell its soul to the national chains. My iced mocha was perfect for the 100 degree weather and my chocolate toffee cookie was splendid. read more

Great spot! Enjoyable place for coffee or to grab a bite for breakfast and lunch. I enjoy their coffee and enjoyed their breakfast Sunrise Sandwich even more. The pastries look good though I have not yet tried them. Everything seems to be made with good quality and the service is great. Only con in my experience is it usually seems quite busy, so I can't guarantee you'll have a spot to dine in. Definitely worth the visit! read more

I haven't been to Black Dog in awhile but I like that they have a good menu with food items and bakery items as well. The baristas were pleasant and helpful. The space seems roomier and there were a lot of people but we found a table and the noise level was normal. The only negative was that I chose a sugar free vanilla syrup in my latte and it was not good, I actually couldn't finish it and threw it away. I've had their regular syrups and they have been fine. Next time I go, I will just order a regular latte on not my typical sugar free. read more

I always like the vibes in here but the coffee usually disappoints. Today I paid $8 for a latte that didn't even taste like it had coffee in it. I asked for one pump of pumpkin spice and they definitely put more like 3-4 pumps. It tasted like milk and sugar. read more

Visited this place for lunch and it was packed! Even though it was very busy, the line went quickly and I didn't have to wait a long time for my food. They also have plenty of seating! They give you a number if you order food, so I was able to sit at a table instead of standing. I got the cranberry walnut toast and a sugar-free vanilla latte. The toast wasn't my favorite. The bread was very thick and messy to eat, but the coffee was delicious! They had a variety of sugar-free syrup options for coffee, so I will be coming back! read more

I usually come here to study, and it's perfect for that. It has tons of parking, a cozy but open layout, and plenty of outlets (they even have a power strip). Their pastries are next level. I love Ibis Bakery. The kouign amann is my all-time favorite--flaky, buttery, and perfectly caramelized. I also always grab a toffee chocolate cookie which is so good, chewy, and totally addictive. They recently launched a rewards app, which is awesome! When you make an account, you can get $2 off your purchase or a free coffee or muffin. Super worth it if you come here often. Whether you're looking for a quiet spot to work, a casual meet-up place, or just great coffee and treats, Black Dog delivers every time. Highly recommend! read more
