    Giant Blueberry Muffin and a butterscotch cold foam cold brew
    Jessica S.

    Fitti's is our favorite place to grab coffee and a quick breakfast. My husband really loves their huge breakfast burrito, and we've enjoyed all the pastries we've tried so far. I also like that they have a lot of options for customizing your drinks, which is great for different dietary needs or just being adventurous. The staff are always friendly and ready to help, especially if you want to try something new. We're looking forward to returning this summer to try their shaved ice, as they have many flavors to choose from!

    Blueberry lemon scone.
    R H.

    Good vibes the second you walk in -- super friendly staff, and everything's made fresh. I ordered the sausage, egg & cheese sandwich (5/5 - tastes like your mom made it), blueberry lemon scone (5/5 - buttery, light, and balanced flavor), and the caramel macchiato (4/5 - solid, but I like mine a little bolder/traditional). Note: the smallest coffee size is 12oz. Fast service, free WiFi, plenty of seating (indoor & outdoor), and it's veteran-owned. 100% coming back.

    Burrito and sandwich
    Amanda R.

    Been to Fitti's a handful of times, but finally ate there, so I decided it is time to write a review. I don't love the coffee. The most recent time I went, my husband got black coffee and it tasted burnt. I get lattes and they are always too sweet for me. We got the breakfast burrito and a sandwich. The burrito was fine, but the sandwich was very good. It was like a breakfast grilled cheese - the bread was toasted and buttery, perfectly cooked egg and crispy bacon. Service is always kind.

    Coffee flight
    Amanda D.

    Such a cute coffee shop! This place was busy and I can see why! My husband and I got the breakfast sandwiches and shared a coffee flight. 10/10 would come again! It's across town for us but worth it!

    Blueberry lemon scone
    Carina R.

    I'm such a coffee fiend, and I love supporting a local business! The prices here are pretty reasonable, but where this cafe shines is the customer service and warm, friendly interaction with the staff. I feel comfortable hanging out there, and the staff gave us very personal service! I was in the Tiffany Springs area for my ACLS certification and needed somewhere to stop for lunch, and I'm so glad I came here for it. Its rating on Yelp is high for good reason! I ordered a blueberry lemon scone, bacon egg and cheese sandwich, and a 20 oz hot Kansas City espresso drink with Irish Creme flavoring. All were wonderful! The sandwich was giving Waffle House but a little bit less greasy. The scone was PACKED FULL of blueberries, which was a welcome surprise because most scones I've had were pretty flaky and majority flour. The espresso was alright, not the best I've had but definitely not the worst. Food is overall 4.5/5, drink is 4/5. If I have a lot of extra time to kill before heading to the MCI airport or have some other errand to run up north, I'm definitely returning!

    Very cool little locally owned, veteran owned coffee shop in a sea of nearby chain shops. With some time to kill before our flight, My son and I stopped by here on the way back to the airport. My son (8) was immediately attracted by the giant cake pops and I was interested in the espresso shots. Being from a family of vets I can appreciate the homage to vets in this space. The service was great and friendly. The cafe culture felt like home. Please support local businesses like this one as they keep your dollars revolving locally and support vets and local families.

    This was my iced quad espresso with light cream.  They have incredible espresso.
    Bob N.

    This place is just perfect. It's just beautiful in side and the people are so kind! We are just visiting for a couple days and we came here both! Everything was delish and the espresso was just divine!

    Strawberry scone
    Erin G.

    So exciting to try a new coffee shop that really knows what they're doing! I had to be up in Parkville to register my car, so I had to make a pit stop for caffeine at Fitti's, and I'm glad I did! First of all, the ambiance is amazing right when you walk in. Outside, you hear the sounds of the busy road, but once you get inside, it is a little haven for you to get away from the busy vibes of the area. The workers are also super friendly, and since I was a newbie, I asked some questions which they were happy to oblige! I ended up getting their cold brew, and the batista suggested getting the foam on top (I got it with caramel flavor!). Definitely recommend if you get to check out Fitti's - - it wasn't something I've tried before (but maybe I'm just missing out!). The batista also recommended a scone, and her favorite was the strawberry, so I took her advice! Great scone (and GIANT)! 10 out of 10 would recommend if you're in the area or if you need an excuse to come up north and grab a coffee! Thanks Fitti's!

    Cherry almond scone=WONDERFUL
    Tracy S.

    There are plenty of espresso/coffee options with a well explained menu for anyone who may not be familiar with the lingo. I'm sure if you want a special drink made a certain way, these folks would be delighted to accommodate your request. Paying cash? You get a 3.9% discount. That's sweet! The ambience is just cozy and welcoming. If you like plants, there are several beautiful plants to admire. I suggest giving the scones a try! I tried the cherry almond scone and I absolutely loved it. Can't wait to try others. Excellent coffee house!

    A friend and I came here for the first time to try a coffee flight. We love Fitti's and will definitely be back! The staff is super friendly, we love that the business is veteran owned, the coffee flight was so fun (4 8oz cups of whatever we wanted to try), our breakfast sandwiches were delicious. I stopped the manager and chatted with him about how we were enjoying our experience. A few minutes later he came back with a pumpkin scone for us to try. It was fabulous! We sat and talked for over an hour in a very relaxing and fun atmosphere. This was a great way to start a Saturday!

    Cozy

    Had a coffee flight with my Angie this morning and breakfast. Staff is AMAZING!! Relaxing atmosphere and we could just sit back and talk and talk and catch up on life. You need to come and experience the entire thing. Supporting Veterans - veteran owned. Thank you for your service.

    Giant Cake pops
    Bonnie L.

    Plenty of parking. Service was excellent, team is very friendly. Apple Pay a plus! Coffee was strong, great flavor. Plenty of space to grab a seat and hangout. Definitely would return. They had giant cake pops and scones that looked excellent.

They have added Messenger Coffee drinks and expanded their pastry and small bite savory items with a seperate menu. It was a bit confusing for my first time visit, which door do I enter? Do I order at the kiosk? Do I wait to be seated? Some signs would surely help. After wandering around in both dining rooms and looking at a menu at the kiosk, I was finally approached and was seated in the cafe. The room has a relaxed feel with cozy chairs and tables, a few plants and books and some comforting classical music playing. I was immediately brought a water glass by my stylishly dressed waiter. I started asking a few questions about the menu, when he asked me to follow him to the other room where I could see the variety of baked goods in the glass warming case. I made my selection and was soon brought my ham and cheese Medialuna (small croissant), a Fat Biscuit (baked rolled dough) and my cappuccino. Pricing is a bit high but the service and atmosphere was above average and the vibe was relaxing after I understood the ordering system, and the menu was unique. A great little coffee / brunch option for the Tiffany Springs / Zona Rosa / MCI area.

I had the sugar-free oat milk iced latte and my husband had a hot Irish cream latte. I also had the gluten-free chocolate brownie and he had a blueberry muffin. The brownie and muffin were very good and he said his latte was excellent. Unfortunately, my latte was not that good and it's probably just because it was sugar-free. I'm sure if I would've gotten a regular syrup it would've been fine. Quite a few coffee shops when I order sugar-free have an overly saccharin taste to them and this sugar-free syrup did as well. The coffee shop was clean and attractive, and the ambience was and the music was a good level. The bathrooms were clean as well. The only negative is that I thought the seating was uncomfortable. I have some low back issues, but even without the low back issues, I think the seating would be too hard. I started off sitting at a bench against the wall that had cushion seating and some pillows, but then I switched to the opposite chair that was a type of rattan chair. But that was uncomfortable as well, so we ended up leaving. I think overall the coffee shop is very nice, it's quite a distance from our house so we probably wouldn't go again only for that reason.

Eclectic decor in the older building with exposed brick walls and a fair amount of plants up front.

The traditional coffeeshop style seating is a nice touch, and feels like a throwback to a different era, when coffee shops weren't just a ton of people on laptops. That being said, they're clearly trying to draw in remote workers and their ilk, with plentiful outlets (i.e. four outlets at the booth I sat at and I can see 4 under counter outlets for every 2 or 3 bar stools. They've also got signage at the tables encouraging sharing the larger spaces/inviting others to sit with you. Was probably a little quieter than normal since it was Memorial Day, so the sign to share the space didn't come in to play, but I appreciate the vibe and community they're trying to create. Decaf americano was fine, but it was in a paper cup which felt like a bit of a miss. They didn't ask if I wanted it for here or not, but I do see some mugs on top of the large Rancilio espresso machine (so the purists may balk it's not a La Marzocco).
