I love this little cafe! It is a great place to have meetings and delicious drinks. The staff are always welcoming and this place is so inclusive! Great place for our queer community! This is the first and only Vietnamese coffee shop in Kansas City! And the culture shines in here. Today for my meeting I got Passionfruit Matcha Lemonade and an an Ube muffin read more

Truly disappointed. In my search to find matcha after my trip to Japan, this was my favorite and goto but looks like I can't depend on it anymore. I ordered Purple Dragon and requested light ice... well what I received was a I think a 16oz cup that was 3/4 full of my drink. read more

Super cool coffee shop in KC. I don't think I have been to a cooler coffee shop any where else actually. It's amazing how this space is designed and created. It showed a lot of effort and thoughts that went into putting everything together. You must check out their bathrooms. You will be blown away. I liked that the menu got some unique drinks. I was able to try the ube Vietnamese coffee and the Dirty Thaiger which was Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee. The Dirty Thaiger was more like a tea. The coffee was not as strong in this one. Overall pretty good still though. If you are ever in the area, I highly recommend this spot. read more

Loved this place!! I tried the mango sticky rice latte. As this is my favorite dessert of all time, I loved it! Ube latte also very good. Unique innovative flavors and the first place I have seen offer a dairy free Vietnamese iced coffee. Would definitely come back! read more

Cute little spot just east of the River Market. Small sitting room, but they're creative the use of it so there are plenty of spots to cop a squat. They didn't have Chai, but the Mailman is a pretty good alternative. First time having a mochi donut. It was pretty good. read more

Delicious drinks but NYC prices. No idea how locals afford it. Guess this is for tourists? The bap bap latte was phenomenal--such creamy, delicate taste. Not overly sweet--just a touch of something extra for a balanced taste. I'd try all their seasonal drinks. Very potent flavors. Funky vibe--great place to hang. Live plants give this a homey charm. Staff don't really do a good job of explaining how drinks taste like, so you have to guess if you haven't tried something before. Some merch for sale. Bathrooms are phenomenal--one is Home Alone 2 themed and another is disco ball mirror hall party theme. With rap buzzing in the background. What a vibe! read more

Cute spot for Vietnamese tea with unique flavors that are hard to find in Kansas City. Easy to find street parking nearby. Vibrant decor on the inside and lots of seating. There side wall is outfitted with some quirky merch. The staff inside seemed friendly and were talking to some customers who appeared to be regulars. We ordered the mango sticky rice and Hella good lattes. Service was fast. The flavors were okay. I was excited for the red bean syrup, but I couldn't taste it in my latte. The Vietnamese coffee taste was smooth and did the job of keeping us awake. The ube hella good latte was more true to its description and you could taste the ube flavor. Neither were too sweet. But, they were a bit pricey for the quality of tea and flavor. read more

I've seen a ton of different events and pop ups that look super fun as well. Highly recommend! read more

I had a Hella Good (cold) and The Mind (hot). I drank the Mind that day and drank the Hella Good the next day. I've always wanted to try this place, so it was difficult selecting just one drink. I made it easy and got two. The Mind was a nice, smooth coffee drink, just as I was expecting. I love mushroom coffee and it was on par with my expectations. I thought maybe I'd taste something different (due to the condensed milk) or exceptional, but not really. It was a solid drink. I would be tempted to get this again when I want a smooth plain tasting latte. The Hella Good was a good, cold latte... but I didn't taste anything special or different about it. Again, it was good. I don't think I'd get this one again. Now for the mochi donut. This winter cranberry mochi donut takes a starring role in my dreams. Seriously, how can you get a better donut? You can't. This is IT. The donut was chewy and light as well as tender. The coating was sweet, tart and tasty with white chocolate chunks from heaven. I LOVED this. I was mesmerized by the gorgeous plants near the front door. They were all just beautiful. The decor is fun and the place has a nice vibe. It would be easier for me to pay $8+tip for a cup of specialty coffee if the size was bigger. As it stands right now, I will probably treat this place as a very special treat upon rare occasions. But there is one more drink I really want to try. And can't wait to see what the next seasonal mochi donut is. read more

I ran in freezing temperatures on my last morning in Kansas City to Cafe Cà Phê, braving the cold. It was worth it! Once I got to the entrance, I felt welcomed. They're inclusive and inviting and warm (both the weather and the feeling)--I love the colors and interior (and exterior.) There was a line out the door when I got there just after 10am on a Sunday morning! It was popping! There were quite a few patrons in Kansas City Currents gear over an hour before their game. I like their menu--lots of specialty drinks. I like how they have Vietnamese coffee and fun, unique names like "Hella Good", "Paris by Night", "Dirty Thai-ger", etc! I decided on the Hot spiced kobucha (holiday drink November 2025) and a Apple pie mochi donut. I was eyeing the congee but $5 for congee is a bit steep for me. They feature a lot of Asian artists--they have fun stickers, shirts, merch, coffee beans, and gifts for sale. Bathrooms are inclusive. Seating could be more plentiful. Many people took their orders to-go in the cold because there wasn't enough seating (it was so full and popular!) They represent and advocate for Asians in the Midwest well. It's like an homage to the culture, inclusive of all. It's Asian-woman owned and she's been featured in a lot of local publications. This is a must-visit if you're in KC! Service was attentive despite how busy they were. read more

When I walked in, the decor and music just gave off this very cool vibe, its a great place to hang out for a bit. The menu itself is fun and creative, plus they have a few vegan options that you don't need to modify. I was unsure about what I wanted, but the staff had great recommendations. I settled on the Mango Sticky Rice Latte, omg was that divine, how sad that I don't live close enough to have this all the time. I'm not exaggerating when I say thats one of the most delicious coffees I've had. This place is great for many reasons, they are a safe place for minorities and the LGBTQ+ community, and we need more of that. Side note: The bathroom was not only clean, but so artsy! read more

Truly one of (if not my top) favorite coffee spots in Kansas City! I love the variety of seating both indoor and outdoor on their patio. My fiancé got a vietnamese cold brew (left) and I always get the iced saigon (right). The baristas are always so friendly and the ambiance is just lovely. Highly recommend coming here for some vietnamese coffee in KC! Support women & asian-owned businesses today and every day! read more

My friend and I took a road trip to Kansas City and I had to return to Cafe Ca Phe because I loved it so much the last time I was here. I was also really excited for my friend to try it out, especially since she had never been there before. She ordered the Dirty Thai-ger, and I got their Cold Brew with Vanilla and Banana Cold Foam. As always, it was so delicious. Just a warning! Vietnamese Coffee is strong! Even if incredibly delicious, do not chug the drink, and definitely avoid drinking it on an empty stomach. Cute space! Friendly service! Street parking! read more

Love the hella good latte here. strong and gave me the shakes for the rest of the day. Friendly staff and love their seasonal menu too. If you checked out their brick and mortar, they have the coolest decor, merch from local artists and their bathroom is probably one of the unique things to see. They also serve sweets from local bakeries that is worth it too. Glad we have one of the first Vietnamese coffee shop here in KC. read more

Cafe Ca Phe is BEYOND just your typical viet coffee shop. When you grow up in a PWC like Kansas - you never quite feel at home, feel a sense of community, or feel seen. The owner Jackie is an incredible woman who started her business and has made such a Great impact on helping spread the Asian American culture I a place that has historically lacked it. Her activism and drive to uplift minorities is enough to keep me supporting this business! Cafe ca phe is always full of people sharing drinks, laughter and memory - good luck finding a table haha. The baristas are all a joy to talk to (shoutout to my girl Jessica) and I would highly recommend everyone to stop by and support this local business! Viet coffee use it's definitely not as thick, deep, and concentrated like some places - the coffee are definitely more similar to a latte/Bac Siu if that's your vibe. My favorite is their Thaiger read more

Staff has always been really pleasant. I got a blueberry donut here that was insanely good, it was hefty, felt like a dense cake. I also got the matcha with strawberry puree, definitely added something new and delicious to a traditional experience. There's a salty lemonade that I want to try next! I like that there's options for non-coffee drinkers. read more

This has been on my list to check out for a while now, and I was able to finally check it out. They have a good selection of Tian Tea, Not Coffee and Specialty Coffees. I and not really familiar with Vietnamese coffees and drinks so the drink menu was a bit overwhelming for me. I Ended up ordering the Dirty Thai-ger. This was a very complex drink with a ton of flavor in every sip. I am really interested in going back and trying more of there drink flavors. Darn the luck that I have a client two blocks away. read more

My husband and I visited Café Cà Phê and were pleasantly surprised by its colorful and welcoming vibe. The place was vibrant and full of energy. As soon as we walked in, we saw a cozy couch and table seating, and to the right, there was a line to order. Along the way, they had a variety of fun items for sale, like decals, t-shirts, patches, earrings, and clips etc from different small businesses. I love when local businesses support others in the community! The staff was very welcoming as well. The café has a unique menu, and we both decided to try the Dirty Thaiger with low sugar. The taste was pleasant, but I found the oat milk a bit off-putting. I think it would taste more authentic if made with regular milk or half-and-half. Also, the price was quite high - $18+ (not including tip) for two 12 oz coffees. (P.S: Street parking might be an issue so be ready to walk if you have to park farther away) Overall, the coffee experience was just okay due to the taste and price, but I absolutely loved the lively atmosphere. I'm not completely sure if I'll be back to try more drinks, but I'm giving 4 stars purely for the great ambiance! read more

**The coffee? Stupidly good.** That Decolonized Dark Roast hits like white velvet guilt--rich chocolate, caramelized solidarity, and a sparkle finish that leaves your tongue looking like it made out with a Timmy who's now going by Kimmy. $9 a cup because capitalism, but worth every socialist performative penny. Downsides: the Kamala mural hypnotizes you into a hyena cackle, and asking for plain sugar gets you a 10-minute lecture on colonial sweetness. Still, 10/10--go get glitter goblined, affirmed, and caffeinated in the most ridiculously fabulous way possible. MAking coffee Great Again read more

Came here at a good time as it was National Coffee Day so they gave discount for the drinks. We ended up trying three drinks! I enjoyed the ube and the spicy one, it had a nice kick to it.

This cafe has the spunkiest flavors and drinks of any cafe I've ever visited. It's my top recommendation for coffee for anyone in Kansas City who wants to try something new.

Unique and high quality Vietnamese inspired coffee. On a recent trip to Kansas City for a wedding my group and I found ourselves here twice. Once on pursue and the second time because we were nearby by happenstance and it was good enough to draw us back in. Trying the standard Vietnamese coffee, the mango sticky rice latte, and the Paris at night as an iced latte, none disappointed. I especially allied the mango sticky rice latte - it was unlike anything I've had before and tasted like its Thai dessert muse. As an added bonus, the interior hosts a variety of independent sellers artwork, stickers, and other small trinkets and jewelry. If you're in the area certainly stop by and give Cafe Ca Phe a try! read more

Very pleasantly surprised to come across this small innovative, Vietnamese café near Kansas City downtown. The story behind this coffee shop of Broadway singer turned his own business. Jackie Nguyen is quite the success story. I'm a coffee now from LA, and I love new flavors mixed with espresso that are not too sweet. I loved the mind latte which reportedly has no sugar and is Vietnamese coffee mixed with mushroom, honey, and oat milk. Shop is a quaint, nice size, hipster, great place to study, or come for chitchat with friends. We definitely come back for the mind latte read more

Great coffee shop. Yes you should come try it out, or yes you should come back. It's a fun little location, great people watching, and good coffee. Our family goes out for coffee every weekend to coffee shops all around town. This is on my son's top 3 list, and I have to agree. Since we go out for so much coffee, sometimes you just need something different....boy howdy this is it. The coffee is not like what you may be used to, and the flavors (for those that want that) are for sure fun. Go there and see for yourself. My daughter may have wanted the dude behind the counter to ask for her number....but she wouldn't want me telling that. read more

It was definitely purple and so cute. Very sweet and creamy I absolutely loved it. I also ended up ordering a doughnut. I believe it was a raspberry flavored with maybe some white chocolate bits on top. This is probably one of the cutest coffee shops in Casey that I've been to. They had so many different options for seating from couches to tables. I will absolutely be coming back as soon as possible! read more

I take a sewing class right by here, so I decided to go on a stroll and finally give this place a try! The inside decor is tasteful and provides an inviting area to relax, get work done, or meet up with friends. The service was great and my drink was made quickly. I also like that they give you a punch card with rewards. The menu is unique with a good mix of classics and originals. I tried the seasonal Saigon Vietnamese coffee. The pandan cream was earthy and added a nice mellow sweetness to the bite of the Vietnamese coffee. The ratio of sweetened milk to coffee was also spot on, not too bitter or sweet. While I feel the price is high for drinks, I can't deny that I literally think about this drink more often than I want to admit - which makes it worth it in my opinion. This is a great spot to occasionally enjoy a drink and sit and enjoy the curated atmosphere. read more

Cafe Cà Phê - Snake Saigon - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

How have I not reviewed Cafe Cà Phê yet?? This is a fabulous Asian- and woman-owned local small business tucked away in Columbus Park. Kansas City's first Vietnamese coffeehouse. They amplify the voices of Asian artists, creators, and chefs in Kansas City and create a cafe space that is welcoming, safe, and inviting for all. Cafe Cà Phê started as a pop-up coffee cart, and I'm so glad they have this brick and mortar location. On top of everything, their drinks are phenomenal. Their coffee is delicious, and they have lots of non-coffee options as well. I love the Vietnamese hot cocoa and the salted lemonade! The staff are all kind and sweet. You can tell everyone really takes pride in the work they are doing here. The cafe space is small, with a few tables and couches. There's typically plenty of street parking on 5th street in Columbus Park within walking distance. This the perfect place to grab a coffee before enjoying a weekend at City Market. read more

Cafe exterior and interior are beautifully decorated! It's evident the team worked real hard to make this space inviting while paying homage to Vietnamese culture. Came on two separate occasions and was met with great service both times. Got the Saigon which did not taste like traditional viet coffee but was still strong. The ube latte was strong too but was super sweet and felt overloaded with syrup. Hoping to give the cafe another shot. Overall, the coffee did the job but was not what I was expecting for Vietnamese coffee. read more
