Talk about a hidden gem! I got really excited looking over their menu. Lots of interesting offerings to chose from:lattes, smoothies, matcha, teas, seasonal drinks and long list of syrups! You guessed right, Caramel Rush... caramel and butter pecan, double shot with light ice, 20 oz. In all my excitement over the menu, I forgot to ask about milk alternatives. My tummy let me know about it. At first taste, I couldn't tell there was any espresso, should asked for another shot of espresso. I couldn't really taste any CARAMEL FLAVOR either. So it doesn't seem like the ratio was considered based on the size of the drink I ordered. All I could taste was milk with butter pecan and a hint of caramel flavor. I was deeply disappointed because well I ordered a Caramel Rush AND there was much caramel flavor; nothing to do with sweet if the flavor isn't identifiable.

Horchata Cold Brew
Andrea R.

Love! The horchata cold brew was sweet without over powering the cold brew flavor. I appreciate the quick service through the drive through, the associates were very nice too.

Great place to try fun new latte flavors! I love to take the flavor combos and add them to cold brew for less milk, today I tried their seasonal Spring Rush- strawberry and white chocolate! Also tried the new cheddar, chive, bacon scone today and it was fantastic- definitely warm it up! They also have a large selection of loose leaf tea you can take to go. Realized there's also drivethru I'll probably hit up next time I'm in a rush!

Christmas Cookie Latte, Strawberry Poptart
Grace Y.

Stopped by to get some work done and this was a great place to do so. Ordered the Christmas Cookie Latte and it was soo sweet and delicious. If you love Biscoff, this is definitely the drink for you. The Strawberry Poptart was also a sweet treat, with the perfect consistency of icing and soft crust. Absolutely planning my next visit back to try more from their winter menu.

After visiting Headrush today during the fall 2024 Caffeine Crawl; I got to bump up my average review to excellent. Owners Eric and Nancy were two of the most gracious and knowledgeable coffee shop owners that I've ever met and I'm eager to support them going forward. I learned so much from Eric's coffee presentation and even more from Nancy's passion for tea. Lot's of great samples, but the Chai and the Hojicha latte were life changing, or at least life confirming. A beautiful autumn morning next to the scenic patio fire pit sampling some amazing beverages from passionate people that know the industry. Eager to return and use my new knowledge to expand my tea drinking to new levels.

Menu

I was in the neighborhood and decided to stop by. I'm glad I did cause it was a pleasant find. The coffee is good and they have some good selections on the menu. Coffee: The coffee (Carmel Latte) was good but nothing special. I do want to try more of the other drinks though! Inside: The atmosphere was cute and quiet. So if you're trying to work this is a good spot to do so. However, I believe they can clean up the space a bit more cause the furniture was a little worn out and the floor was dirty. Service: The baristas were nice and helpful!

First off, I mainly visit for the beauty of the space here. The tranquility today was exceptional with the classic music playing in the background, so I totally loved it. What more could make this better but a tasty drink? This was not going to happen here. The off-putting begins with the smell of burnt coffee. You know the smell, when it burns and crusts at the bottom of a carafe or decanter. I've known to abstain from purchasing drip coffee here because the smell is just how it tastes. I would check how they brew their coffee because I have purchased their roasted beans before, ground them and have had pretty good coffee. In fact, I came here today hoping to pick up some of their Christmas blend beans, which I really enjoyed last year. Unfortunately, they didn't have any left. So, since I was here I knew I needed to try something else. I had tried their mochas here and they were something akin to weak hot chocolate milk. No thanks! I was smart and purchased their smallest, an 8 oz caramel macchiato. It was a good thing too because I could taste the synthetic taste of caramel syrup and their espresso shot? It tasted burnt. Perhaps the key here is part of the coffee shop's name with "rush" in it because you can't rush perfection.

Ambiance, service and honey lavender chair review - WONDERFUL!! And they have a massive, terrace covered south facing patio, free wifi, tons of games and books, real plants, and more. What more could you ask for in a coffee house?

Vanilla Rush
Jessica S.

Local coffee! So glad they are back open! The Christmas cookie latte is like a biscoff cookie ‍ dream Great service! Drive thru! Seating inside

this was a nice surprise to find on a chilly day. Situated in the Briarcliff area. the coffee is good and there are plenty of spaces to read or have a conversation or get some work done and you don't feel like you are on top of one another. They have a huge selection of teas which is nice. I am looking forward to coming back here.

I love that they have a conscious and labeled menu- ranging from vegan to keto to gluten-free options. (Thanks for that!) The flavors have such fun names; Estes' fave name is Golddigger, since that sums up the freeloading life of a spoiled and very loved dog (that was also his dad's fave flavor ) What a great spot in Briarcliffe Village. We will definitely be back!

It was quite busy when we stopped in nevertheless the staff was very friendly and happy to let us sample flavors before ordering, which I appreciated. The one thing that really stood out was the price ... and not in a good way. We paid $16 for two scoops of ice cream, which felt pretty outrageous for what we got. I truly enjoy supporting local businesses, and I understand that rising costs and high rent can play a role, but it still didn't feel worth it. I didn't rate them too low based on that because they're doing a great job! If you're going for the atmosphere and experience, it could be a fun stop. But if you're thinking about value for money, it may come across as a bit underwhelming.

As a KC local, I love trying the variety of local coffee shops our city has to offer! I finally got…read morea chance to try Thou Mayest and they did not disappoint. With a variety of flavors (both standard and unique) there is truly something for everyone. I tried an elderberry latte and enjoyed it. I haven't seen elderberry syrup offered at other shops and it was super fun to try something new and different. The vibes inside are perfect for studying or visiting - a little dark and moody on the interior and perfect for spending a couple hours.

Might be jaded after having spent a week at the downtown Marriott and the convention center, but…read morethis place feels like a gem of a third place, and a nice respite before heading to the airport. Eclectic decor in the older building with exposed brick walls and a fair amount of plants up front. It's a large space with a variety of seating options - maybe 4 or 5 two-tops along the windows in the front, a few large booths that could sit six each if you're cozy, 3 or 4 nooks with a mix of couches and stereotypical coffee shop seating, a larger table in the back, and some bar seating as well. 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).

Customer service here is fantastic! I can't stress enough how positive and happy the employees are…read morewho work here, every time I drive through there's always a smile waiting for me at the window. Now, I also must say that I don't come at the "normal coffee time" but, I have been in the mid-morning and early afternoon and there's never a line. Besides the fabulous people who make the coffees (most of who are teenagers but, that doesn't matter to me when the drinks are executed well and when the attitudes of employees are so optimistic) the coffee itself is creative and tasty. I love the special flavors Scooters pumps out and the fun collaborations they do. I've tried drinks from the Candy Land collection as well as a Lucky Charms latte and most recently a Little Debbie Oatmeal Pie latte, all were delicious. But, if you're not a fan of sweet coffee then I wouldn't recommend some of their special flavors. However, they have a variety of sugar free options. For fall, the oatmeal pie latte was a perfect cozy drink that evoked a childhood memory of a lunchbox favorite and came topped with a teeny tiny mini chewy oatmeal cookie (how freaking cute is that?). The Grandma Nut Latte, from the candy land collab was flavorful and the nutty toasty flavor paired well with the coffee. The Lucky Charms latte was a flavor explosion of marshmallow sugary goodness and definitely reminded me of a bowl of cereal milk swirled with coffee, of course it was topped with a sprinkling of the magically delicious cereal itself. Also, the pumpkin pie cheesecake bites were divine, very sweet but the coldness of the inside paired with the thick layer of the outer white chocolate shell played on two textures, creamy and soft with crunchy. It was quite a nice experience. Other than that fall treat I haven't tried any more food from Scooters but, I'm definitely game to try some of their savory options the next time I'm grabbing a drink.

This place is disappointing somehow. Coffee is never very good, they don't ask questions if you…read morewant cream or sugar, and the breakfast burritos for what they charge you are a total scam. I don't know how I get Condon to thinking that somehow it will be better when I go, I might as well go to Quiktrip, the prices are more down to Earth, it's far more convenient, and there's no wait. Two stars, maybe
