    Cold brew
    Naomi T.

    Plants and coffee... YES! [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a beautiful coffee shop. It also has plants for sale (so beautiful) and a few pieces from local vendors, like clothing, art, jewelry, and more.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The items are very pricey, but they give the coffee shop a great atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The coffee was okay--I had the cold brew, which was a little strong for me and had a bitter aftertaste, so it wasn't my favorite. I wished they had coconut milk as an option. I didn't finish my coffee, but I will definitely come back and try their tea, as the selection looks great and I loved the atmosphere.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love this coffee shop with a small shop and lots of plants.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have plenty of seating and provide a very quiet space for working.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The espresso is very smooth and they have perfect latte art. I ordered a honey cappuccino and it was perfection. I will continue to come back when in the area.

    Some goods that are for sale

    I've wanted to try out this coffee shop for a while so I was able to get to it before they closed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The coffee shop is attractive and has quite a variety of items for sale. They have jewelry, clothing, journaling, goods, decorations, and so forth that are probably from local sellers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their prices on their beverages are very good. I had an iced oat milk, sugar-free caramel latte. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is limited seating in the actual coffee shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thankfully, I was able to find a small round table near some of the items for sale. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked about the lower level being available for seating and was told that they partner with another business who sells food and food. Food would need to be purchased to sit down there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I did see people go down there because they're probably assuming it's part of the coffee shop. I would have assumed that as well if I would not have asked. I did go down there and ask if they had any food that was gluten-free because I was going to buy something for lunch, but unfortunately, they did not. They have a few table and chairs outside as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did use the restroom but I could not get the lock to lock. Another woman also had to have her friend watch the door because of the same reason.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I'm always looking for the next best coffee shop, and Garden House definitely fits that. Coffee and plants, what more could you want!? The cappuccino was perfectly prepared and the latte art made it almost too pretty to drink (almost). [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's the perfect place to catch up with a friend, study, work or just relax among the plants.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    spiced pear latte

    Really killer latte--strong coffee flavor and bot too sweet, the spiced pear flavors came through well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]very bright, green space and nice for a sunny weekend afternoon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I stumbled upon Garden House while taking a short cut off SW Blvd turning right (west) instead of getting onto I-35. I passed this groovy black building with several people waiting a the door to enter and since it was a Saturday morning I assumed it was a restaurant I had to turn around as I loved the outside vibe. Well its primary service is coffee with a limited menu bagels, burritos and sweets. I ordered a cold brew and veggie burrito which they heated in a panini grill which was really nice instead of a microwave. As I waited I was wide eyed with their retail offerings from accessories, clothing, plants for sale to locally made jewelry but not stopping there I walked through the back door into this Eden of Cacti of all sizes, tropical plants and pottery. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plants are everywhere surrounding you giving you a relaxing feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My cold brew was tasting the burrito was hot with that crunchy outer shell and the vibe was pleasant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] P.S they also have entertainment

    Garden House has replace Meta Coffee in Argentine at the far western end of SW Blvd. The coffee menu looks the same but the atmosphere is most definitely improved. Gone is the leatherworks and high end men's accessories shop in the back of the building and replaced with a few locally made gift items and plants, plants and more plants... they have even expanded the space to include a large area down a flight of stairs in the rear of the building to provide much more seating and you guessed it...PLANTS. The coffee menu is pretty basic - nothing very creative or seasonal but my cortado was solid. Food options include premade sandwiches and sweets from a few local shops. Overall a very chill environment for a respite from the urban jungle, with a real jungle vibe - or at least a botanical shop or greenhouse.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very relaxing coffee spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Passing by Garden House each day on my route work, I always thought it looked inviting and I wasn't disappointed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]With my first visit being early on a cool fall morning, I enjoyed browsing the interior amidst the calm atmosphere and chill indie music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their array of plants and items for sale like jewelry add to the character of this place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space for sitting is not huge but I'm not familiar enough to know if they get busy/crowded (there is some outdoor seating though).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My kind of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    If sipping on coffee while surrounded by luscious plants is your ideal way to start a morning, then Garden House Cafe in Kansas City, Kansas is the spot for you! From floor to ceiling, this cafe is covered in beautiful and healthy plants. From coffee to cold brews and lattes, there is a a little bit of everything on the menu to pick between. There are some pastries to chose from, along with delicious breakfast burritos. We ordered our coffee and found a lovely spot in the back area to sit. The Garden House Cafe is a great location to work remote as well! Before you leave, check out some of the accessories and items for purchase - there are adorable earrings and plant stands to look at! If you have not had the change to check out Garden House Cafe, I highly recommend it!

    Earthy coffee vibes The perfect little cafe located in Kansas City KS. Featuring plants, espresso bar, home accessories, local vendors and a large area for people to mingle. Plus they have local food from Bread Friends Co for bagel, Splitlog for burritos and Hanas for donuts, cinnamon rolls and fritters. I tried the Brown Sugar latte and it was full of flavor and sweet but strong. Loved it.

    This a cute coffee shop for coffee, tea and plant lovers alike! The design style and selected decorations work together to create a peaceful and productive environment. Most of the plants in the store are for sale. The shop also displays products from different vendors. So, you can come have your coffee or tea, a light breakfast; shop for plants, home decor, or stationary, and be productive! The barista was skilled, knowledgeable and nice! My caramel latte was a work of art with the perfect hint of sweetness, without overpowering the espresso. The cold brew also tasted great! I did not get a picture of it, but we also had an everything bagel with cream cheese. There was nothing too crazy about it, but it was yummy! All in all, I highly recommend everyone check this coffee shop out. If you do, please note that parking can be a little tricky. There's street parking on the main road and the little street.

    Come out and support this local gem. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What looks like a small coffee shop is really a wonderful place to catch up with a friend, do some thrifting, and maybe get a new backpack.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The coffee was almost as great as the people working there. This place worth adding to your weekly stops!

    Vanessa B.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Relaxing atmosphere, beautifully curated goods both new and vintage, plenty of plants, natural light galore, and delicious coffee and treats![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] What an amazing space! Looking forward to come back!

    I can't say enough good things about this shop. Easily the best coffee shop in Kansas City without…read morequestion. They have the best espresso in Kansas City. The same is true of their cold brew. Plus they make their chai in house and that's crazy good too. Their syrups are made in house, and they have a fantastic selection. House made caramel cardamom? Obviously yes. Plus they make their chocolate, white chocolate and caramel syrups. I'm not sure how they pull all of that off because it's all so good. I found some of the seasonal drinks lean toward the sweeter side if that's what you're looking for. Then there's the food. Which in any other shop would have started off my review (their drinks really are good enough to start with). They managed to put a full bakery into their tiny kitchen and make fresh focaccia every day and then use that for a handful or unique panini sandwiches. They literally have an overnight baker baking bread so they're not in the way of the baristas. Paninis sound like basic coffee shop fare, but the bread is so good. I wish you could order just the focaccia bread. The fig & prosciutto panini is the star of the show. But they also make a turkey and pesto one that's so good. Oh also this spicy Italian panini that uses nduja sausage. I've never had a panini like that anywhere. They make a chicken salad on a house made croissant baked that morning. There isn't a better chicken salad in Kansas City, and the croissants are actually outstanding by themselves (which unlike the focaccia, they do make enough croissants every day for you to take one home by itself if you want to). The cinnamon rolls are a classic and they're often gone by the time I get there. Honestly it's crazy when you make the best cinnamon rolls and they're still not the best thing on the menu. They're consistently soft, rich, pull apart and delicious. You can taste real vanilla in the icing. The details really stand out. The breakfast burrito is so good but they're usually sold out when I get. They're clearly made from scratch in small batches, which is the only way anyone should do it. I didn't mind waiting ten minutes because it's quite clear they're putting care and attention into quality. Food at coffee shops usually feels like an after-thought. Baked goods that are brought in from somewhere else. Microwaved breakfast items. I wouldn't normally think much about it. But everything I've had at the book club is has tasted so intentional and delicious. It's nuts that this place is in downtown Mission and is putting out such consistently fantastic food and drinks. Last thing that stands out is the staff. Their baristas are top notch. They clearly took time to find good people even though they just opened. This is a hospitality-focused shop which is absolutely missing in a lot of shops. Good people, genuine kindness, and they're all so good at what they do. This will forever be my shop.

    To wander into French Market, the lively and lovely sister brasserie to Café Provence, is to step…read moredirectly into a vibrant watercolor painting of community life. Here, the strict, timeless geometry of the Left Bank softens into a warm, sun-lit casual elegance, a neighborhood sanctuary where the hum of local politics replaces the brooding silence of the philosopher's corner. It is a space where the Democratic social scene is always in full, effervescent effect, a kinetic theater of ideas where local strategists, organizers, and policy wonks gather over marble tables to debate the future of the state while tearing apart freshly baked croissants. The air thickens not with existential dread, but with the electric, hopeful prose of a collective striving for progress, making it the definitive salon of the modern suburban landscape. The beauty of French Market lies in this seamless blending of civic passion and culinary delight. Every corner of the room feels curated with a benevolent affection, an atmosphere fueled entirely by a staff that can only be described as thoroughly fabulous. From the front counter to the busy kitchen, the team moves with a synchronized, smiling grace that makes every patron feel like the guest of honor at an intimate neighborhood gathering. They navigate the bustling room with a genuine warmth, pouring drinks and delivering plates with an infectious energy that elevates the casual setting into something truly extraordinary. It is a rare, beautiful thing to find a restaurant where the hospitality feels less like a service industry transaction and more like a generous act of civic kinship. On the plate, the market routinely touches the sublime, offering dishes that sing with a clear, poetic precision. The crab cakes are a revelation of coastal longing, packed with sweet, tender lump meat and boasting a delicate, golden sear that yields effortlessly to the fork. Nearby, the croque madame arrives as an opulent, dripping monument to breakfast-time indulgence, a decadent tower of savory ham and melted Gruyère crowned with a perfectly runny egg that coats each bite in a rich, golden velvet. To wash down these triumphs, one must order the French press coffee, a dark, aromatic brew that arrives in a slow, plunging ritual, delivering a bold, robust punch that commands your full attention and jump-starts any morning debate. While the kitchen operates at a remarkably high standard across the board, a discerning diner must exercise a small measure of tactical restraint when navigating the entrees. For all the brilliance on display, it is best to gently bypass the steak frites for the time being, steering clear of the dish until the kitchen source a more premium quality of beef to match their otherwise flawless standards. But this minor detour is easily forgotten the moment you glance toward the pastry case. The desserts here are an absolute, transcendent poetry of sugar and butter, offering delicate tarts and airy confections that are nothing short of sublime. French Market remains a triumphant, essential neighborhood jewel, where the food is exceptional, the people are magnificent, and the conversation never stops flowing.

Of the 4 shops we visited this was by far the weakest of the presentations and offerings. We received a 4oz sample of their Ranger Maple Latte and a 5 minute presentation on the business. The drink is tasty but definitely not on the same level as what other shops were providing in the amount of different products offered for samples and certainly not for quantity when focusing on only one product. I was surprised to learn that Front Range is owned by the "Made in Kansas City" retail chain. No offense to the presenter, she was welcoming and friendly, I just think a more detailed presentation of the company as a whole could have been given. I do like the Rocky Mountain cabin vibe that they have created to make you feel that you've traveled 10 hours west and holding up in a cafe in Breckenridge. 3 stars for Caffeine Crawl experience (this location only) 5 stars for ambiance. 4 stars for product and value

We loved the little set up with a great amount of seating, a clean bathroom, and outlets for people who want to study or get some work done. We were a little hungry and got the empanadas and both tried the Yerba mate. We've never had the traditional yerba mate and were excited we could try it here. Once our order was ready one of the employees was happy to explain to us how to properly drink the yerba mate. She was patient, kind, and professional the whole time. There's definitely a trick to drinking it without getting the tea leaves through the straw. As we enjoyed our snack and drink we could tell the caffeine kicks in a little later. So, if you're up to trying traditional yerba mate, be aware that you'll get a gradual burst of energy a little later. I personally loved the decor and the atmosphere here. They had little knick knacks you could purchase, a small refrigerator with items to take with you as well. I got a couple of key chains for my sister and myself and my boyfriend and I have already noted that we want to come back here the next time we're in Kansas City!
