Helpful Staff, Great Coffee, and lots of other local Stuff. It's a cozy neighborhood atmosphere. I haven't ordered food yet. I'm a boring guy when it comes to my coffee order. I always get a red eye ( drip coffee with a shot of espresso ). The staff are fast and I'm usually in and out in 6 minutes or less. read more

I went to filling station yesterday with some friends. I've been hearing about this place for a while and wanted to try it especially since it's cute for the holidays so we did. The space is sooo pretty for the holidays. Upon entering in, we were looking at the menu and couldn't decide so I asked the barista what she recommended and she kinda seemed annoyed by me asking. I asked about 3 matcha, gingerbread, passion fruit and the blueberry matcha. She said the iced blueberry lavender matcha was sweeter so I ordered that. I got my matcha and it tasted good! I just wish the experience with the barista was better but that's okay :) it could have just been a tiring day lol. My friends enjoyed their matcha and said it was good too! read more

Who says Christmas pop-ups are for night time, well I found a Christmas pop-up that you can enjoy during the day Santa's Ski Lodge with festive lights, christmas decorations, christmas music, while sipping on my Santa Slay Mocha Coffee and almond croissant. The service was great. The menu of seasonal Christmas drinks and breakfast bites while they have a few lunch sandwiches available. The atmosphere was nice while relaxing and enjoying the morning with coffee and some selfcare time . Christmas Pop-Up #2 in the books read more

We had an overnight at the Cherry Warehouse boutique hotel across the way from this spot so we stopped in for a coffee and breakfast bite before making our way to the airport. The spot has a lot of outdoor and indoor seating and a nice food and bakery selection for a coffee spot. Of course, you can enjoy a variety of great espresso based drinks as well. My husband got his standard latte and I did a drip coffee. The coffee was very strong and robust. We also ordered two breakfast sandwiches, my husband chose the Cadillac and I enjoyed the biscuit Sammy. Both were EPIC! Very delicious and sloppy (thanks to the sriracha aioli). Food came out quickly and hot. Overall, breakfast was $30 (a drip coffee, a latte, and two breakfast sandwiches). This seems pretty reasonable by today's standards and everything was delicious so no complaints on that side of things. Service was fast and friendly, what you'd expect for a quirky and cute coffee/food spot. If you're in the area, stop in, no regerts. read more

I decided to try out this location since I live not to far from the Mission location. The baristas were nice and our lattes were good. We had a white mocha and a sugar free oat milk hot latte. There was a variety of seating even though there is not a whole lot on the inside, they have a good amount outside but it was cold. The atmosphere was pleasant and chill with a good playlist. read more

I'll never forget being in my early twenties, working at the Nelson, and going out to lunch with curators here. This place was to me at the time, the coolest little hidden gem that offered great salads and coffee, and a nice patio to boot, all at an affordable cost. Flash forward more than a decade and this Filling Station location might no longer be a hidden gem, but a gem it still is. I believe it's changed ownership at least once in that timeframe but it's still welcoming, bright and airy, filled with charm, and full of great flavors. I most recently came here to take a meeting and it was a great spot for it. I've been coming here on and off for such a long time, and I see no reason why I won't continue to do the same. If you're visiting or haven't ever been here this is a solid cafe that offers a bit more than just your basic pastries and coffee (though those are wonderful). You'll definitely enjoy your visit. read more

Delicious food and beverages, fun holiday decor and atmosphere, lots of seating options--Filling Station is decked out for the holidays and has many holiday themed drink options. The beverage and food options are so many that i'd wager a bet that almost anyone could find at least one thing they'd eat and/or drink! In fact, my friend and I found many we wanted to try but had to narrow it down and boy was that hard. The service was really good although we initially had to wait to order at the 1 register as the order taker was visiting with the customers in front of us for s good 5+ minutes , who were also her friends. After ordering, we sound a comfy spot to sit, which had comfy chairs surrounding a coffee table. They also have a bar, low top tables, and a long bar in the middle which would be great for large groups or laptop users. Merchandise is available for purchase near the order area. They also have a box and supplies to write encouraging notes to incarcerated or newly released individuals. When our orders were ready, we were each called up to retrieve them. We had 2 different seasonal lattes, I had the biscuits and gravy, and my friend had a sandwich. If you choose to dine in, your coffee is served in one of their assorted mugs/cups and your food is on real plates and real silverware. Both beverages and food items were excellent and a nice touch was the festively adorned lattes. Parking is a little scarce and difficult as there is construction adjacent to their onsite parking but it's definitely worth the effort and read more

Since visiting Japan I've been on the hunt for a Matcha drink and this might be the place. Their drink has other syrup in addition when you get an ICED BLUEBERRY LAVENDER MATCHA LATTE with almond milk. No espresso is included. The brand of green tea powder which has caffeine itself was good flavor, not exactly what my tastebuds remember but still good. Pure matcha can be strong. read more

The atmosphere of this place is very bright and inviting. The Golden hour sandwich is kinda bad. Biscuit is tasty and flaky but doesn't hold together at all which is kind of important when it bookends a sandwich. Turkey sausage is very subjective taste wise, but this one had too much of whatever the dominant spice was, and it threw off the balance of the whole bite. The lady at the counter was very kind, and the coffee drink (pistachio honey latte) was very, very good--not nearly as sweet as I anticipated and so balanced. Incredibly good. But who knew that nowadays St*rbucks is more of a budget choice for coffee? I do think that the coffee was great but I just don't think I'd come back. The sandwich was so off, I don't know if I'd chance a try at any other food. read more

Decided recently to visit different coffee shops and spend an hour reading on the weekends. Started with the Filling Station in my neighborhood. Cool little spot with nice seating, a quaint little space, and helpful staff. The iced chai wasn't bad and I had a pretty good muffin as well. This will probably be my anchor spot throughout the year. read more

What a great location. Set up right next to triangle park in a walkable part of the city. The coffee was so good. The baristas were all so sweet and helpful.

Met my agent here for coffee. It was fantastic! Her suggestion. GREAT coffee!! I had a delicious cookie and she enjoyed her turkey sandwich and latte. I can only do 1 cup of coffee a day, so they made me a delightful decaf Americano. They don't have Sweet & Low, but I had some in the car. :) Great space! Very comfortable. Wonderful, helpful staff. Love it. read more

Popped in for a quick coffee in the morning. The vibe is solid for a coffee shop and definitely would've enjoyed spending time here to do work/study. The menu has a lot of good options for food/drinks. The coffee we got was ultimately pretty standard but what we wanted. Parking is easy outside and the seating area is fairly extensive. read more

Coffee was very good. Very pleasant staff and loved the rustic venue. Only negative is that parking availability was limited.

This is such a cool spot! The coffee is always great, the food is solid, and the vibe is super laid back. The staff are friendly and make it feel really welcoming, which is why I always enjoy stopping by. Definitely one of my favorite KC coffee shops! read more

There is some street parking around the building. Our group of 6 came in on Wednesday afternoon and there were a few people around but we were able to order quickly and get our drinks. I love the mellow vibe of the place and on a nice day I imagine they roll up the doors. The coffee was decent, they have a variety of options for both coffee and juice. It's worth a try. read more

I have been to the midtown Filling Station location multiple times and it is definitely one of my favorite cafes in KC! It is decorated so well for the holidays with plenty of festive drinks to choose from. I tried the white Christmas latte and it was so so flavorful! The little rosemary sprig and edible glitter were such cute touches to an already eye-catching latte. There aren't many outlets here so if you want to get some work done, come with a fully charged laptop if you don't happen to get a spot next to an open outlet. Other than that, this is such a lovely cafe to check out! read more

3 drinks and a bag of chips $28 super pricey I would so border line rip-off but my $7 Chai tea was pretty good but not worth $7

Love this coffee place to catch up on any homework, reading, or just to have good coffee and food. This was actually my first time ordering food from the Filling Station and I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the clutch burrito which came with chorizo, eggs, roasted potatoes and queso. My only complaint is that I couldn't taste the chorizo but the burrito was very good and filling. The coffee is pretty average, but I usually come here for the atmosphere and location of this particular coffee shop. Definitely recommend! read more

Best breakfast burritos! Great coffee and good vibes. They are always friendly and cleanly.

I'm visiting family in KC and was looking for a good place for coffee and breakfast. I found it! Great, rich latte (iykyk, but some place just throw foam on top--not here). And great breakfast and pastry option. Wonderful atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating, surrounded by nice urban atmosphere. Friendly service as well! read more

Came back here for this first time in several years to grab an afternoon coffee with a friend. I totally forgot how much I enjoy this spot and why it is so popular. I love the outdoor seating area and how much seating there is inside. We went on a day that was super sunny and beautiful weather, so the patio was packed. We just grabbed coffee while there, but their food menu looks awesome. They had bowls and sandwiches, each menu option looked amazing. I made a note that I want to come back and try the food. This coffee shop is the quintessential neighborhood coffee shop. I look forward to coming back again soon and checking out the food and enjoying more good coffee. read more

Enjoyed an iced oat latte, and a breakfast burrito/panini here at Filling Station. We sat inside and enjoyed a light bite to eat then we were on our way. Very calm and peaceful place when we visited. I'll definitely add to my KC rotation when I'm in town. Service was friendly, the brekke pannini thing did take an unusually long time to prepare but I wasn't in a rush so no biggie. read more

I thought my latte was good, but the breakfast burrito I got was not. I saw food was being made to order, but the burritos are apparently frozen and heated in a microwave. I got it to go, and when I went to eat it the center was still frozen solid. The ends of the tortilla were hard like they'd been in the microwave too long. I threw it away after a few bites, as I did not have any way of heating it up while I was on the go. For $8, I was expecting more. read more

I go here almost every day and it is consistently good service and atmosphere. Food is great and love the occasional menu rotation!

So good! Just made a quick stop for breakfast and coffee. Such a neat atmosphere and relaxed! Wish I had a book and an hour to just sip and enjoy the morning. Service was quick and friendly. We got an iced coffee and pumpkin pie spice latte, and two McGee Sammy's. Delicious!! read more

Love this coffee spot! I had the avocado toast which was excellent, with some pepper flakes to add some balanced spice to the balsamic and tomato.

Customer service isn't the best at this location. They mostly kind of act annoyed with you. But the shop is always busy, and their coffee is good. While the juices are also pretty tasty, they haven't been my favorite locally. If you get a spot inside, covet it. The outdoor seating is nice but can be a little rough when it's shaded. read more

Coffee shops are my absolute favorite things in the entire world I'm always on a mission to find amazing local coffee shops with good coffee as well as food. Came here before work on a Monday. This coffee shop is very modern with lots of greenery (got a lot of hipstery vibes, which is a must on my checklist of what a good coffee shop should encompass). There was a lot of table space + free WiFi which is always nice for productivity. I got a vanilla latte and their everyday bowl for breakfast. The everyday bowl had quinoa, blueberries, bananas, and a huge glob of peanut butter. All I can say is: YUMMM. The latte was also yummy (not too sweet which I liked). This coffee shop is a bit on the pricier side ($4-5 dollars for a specialty coffee, $7 for the bowl), but what I'd expect nowadays read more
