I really like the Lenexa Public Market. It's pretty good sized and they have lots of seating both inside and outside. It's clean and they have plenty of options for food and drinks. They have multiple drink vendors including coffee, boba tea, mocktails, cocktails, and beer. There is also a variety of food options from pizza, to sandwiches, to Asian noodles, Pakistani, African, breakfast foods, and donuts. I've only visited a few of the vendors but all have been friendly and service was great. Value is in line with what you see at other similar restaurants. The market is kid friendly and they have lots of games that you can play. Definitely stop by if you're in the area! read more

I love a good food hall with options for everyone and seating for large groups! I went to Topp'd pizza and got "The Gardner" pizza. It came with a bunch of veggies (including HUGE pieces of artichokes) and added bacon. It was ready in under 10 minutes and was delicious! This place is a great vibe for big groups & even has games from Cardboard Corner to keep everyone entertained. read more

I love going here to experience all the bustle and energy of this place. It's quite a lovely experience. There are a bunch of different restaurants on the ground floor Featuring food from all over the world. I'm happy to drive over to Lenexa from Lee Summit to experience this place. I always make sure to go up to the lobby of the Lenexa city offices and see the art on display because they always have nice pieces from local artists. Often time the pieces are for sale. read more

I really like that there are different food options in the court. The service from each of the courts I've gone to is really great. The selection is various so you have many things to choose from. Whether it's pizza, Pakistani/Indian food, Asian cuisine, it meets the criteria! The value isn't that pricey either. You won't spend an arm or a leg here. I think the price is decent. The quality of the food is great. read more

A cute food hall set right in the heard of the Lenexa City Center. We walked over from our hotel near by in search of coffee. We found a quiet food hall at 8am with a hustling and bustling group of folks in line for hot coffee and donuts. We each got a black coffee, which was bold and flavorful. The kids split a donut and that was rich and moist. The area is perfect for groups. There are endless amounts of seating and games. We came back with family for lunch and more games. It was fun. It appeared a parking garage is near by, but it was a short walk for us and we were able to check out the farmers market near by as well. read more

It seems to be a trend, at least around KC, to make these city center kind of locations anchored in each little suburban area. The iteration here in Lenexa features a public library, a food hall (the market), some shops, and tons of apartments. I've been the the Public Market a few times now as I think it does a good job of featuring innovative and delicious local vendors, and I tend to enjoy the food hall concept as you can usually find something for just about anyone at one of these places. I like how big and airy the building is, the ample seating, and the clean restrooms. I find parking to be a bit chaotic without great signage to the garage, though even on busy days you can usually find something within the area and walk. Overall, it's a nice little spot and I think it definitely brings some vibrancy to the area. read more

I met an ex-coworker for lunch to catch up on what's been happening in our lives. I decided to order my meal from African Dream Cuisine, while she opted for a salad from Top'd. We both enjoyed our meals as we chatted. Lenexa Public Market has about four restaurants and a donut shop that serves coffee. I suggest you buy a donut right away for dessert after your meal; you can always save it for later. Mr. D's always has fresh baked goods. read more

This is a cool spot, and one that I definitely recommend checking out. I do have somewhat mixed feelings about all the development surrounding this; this was always such a nice, open stretch with golf courses and farm vibes on the way to baseball games at 3&2 as a kid, or to run the trails at Shawnee Mission Park. However, that nostalgia can be overridden by the fact that people out this way have a whole lot more to explore, including several local spots. While I didn't catch the full development around the LPM, it feels generic and dime a dozen. The LPM however has donuts, coffee, pizza, bakeries, tamales, and more in a nice, tidy, food hall setup. It seems smaller than some of the others, but didn't feel particularly small on my visit during a quieter time of day. I've had the donuts at Mr. D's (great), the pizza at Topp'd (great for fast-casual) and need to try the rest in here. All in all, I'm unlikely to be a regular seeing as how I live a half an hour away, but it is nice to know about and particularly for when I am near the five-star Shawnee Mission Park. read more

Lenexa has done a great job of creating a hip little suburban fake downtown; with shopping, food, government buildings, offices, residential and a library. The Lenexa Public Market seems to be the focal point of the area. In the lower level of the city hall is the communal food hall with about seven vendors. There has been a bit of a turn-over since my first visit 4+ years ago, but that is the nature of the game. Burgers, African cuisine, pizza, coffee and donuts, cocktails... it's all here and plenty of tables and chairs, couches, stools inside or a outdoor area with fire pits. Make sure to check out the rotating art upstairs in the city hall lobby while you are there. I find LPM a much more interesting and balanced foodhall option than it's slightly more upscale rival in downtown Overland Park. read more

Love the location and idea of the Public Market with restaurants and shops on the main level. I have met friends here for coffee or a quick bite to eat. Last week we were at City Hall for a city council meeting and went early to grab some dinner down stairs at the Market. We were surprised to find that at dinner time there were very few patrons here. All the non-food shops were closed. Three eateries were open. The pizza place offered quick made-to-order selections with a nice variety including sandwiches, single-size pizza and cauliflower crust option. We both really enjoyed the food and would definitely return. There were two other options for food and a "bar". The counter service was great. Smiling faces. Highly attentive. Well priced. Wish this place would catch on, it's such a great idea. read more

The African restaurant has the most amazing peanut sauce!!! I had plantains, rice, & chicken. They all were wonderful. The guy waiting on us was very aware of making his customer happy in his quiet & quick manner. The peanut sauce was so good- I wish I could've taken some home. As always the lenexa Public market is so clean, great open relaxing atmosphere- love going there and haven't had bad food yet. read more

This is my favorite spot in the area. I come here a few times each week: to work, write, study, and to just relax and read a good book. It offers both an energetic and chill vibe. During the warm months, I come on Friday nights to hear live bands and dance! It is the place to be. read more

Bay Boys Dutch Crunch Sandwiches had a pop-up location here. Their food is delicious! I split a Crown Club with my husband! It was delish! A half a sandwich was all I needed! It was packed with ham, turkey, thick smoked bacon, Swiss, tomatoes, red onion, lettuce and finished off with a Chipotle Mayo! Please visit their location at 47th and Holly in KCMO! They have opened a dining area upstairs! read more

How I'm just now reviewing this spot truly surprises me, but I'm a fan of the Lenexa Public Market. I would recommend checking this spot out. I have really enjoyed seeing the market develop (new vendors, new pop-ups, events). It's amazing to see vendors move into new stalls and develop their craft. Of the current vendors we've had: Mr. D's - great coffee, love the donuts from their Shawnee location Topp'd Pizza - I became a fan of their original location near KU Med Butterfields - originally Kate Smith Soiree -- she did our wedding desserts! Red Kitchen - amazing tamales, fantastic breakfast burritos, and Ale is the sweetest lady Still need to try the other vendors, including Sohalia's, African Dream, and The Tasting Room It was a once in awhile spot for us initially, but now is more regular as we live in the area. It's great for grabbing a coffee after a workout at the Lenexa Rec Center, meeting friends for coffee or a bite, or a day / night date spot. Can confirm that the Friday Night Sound Bites in the summer are worth checking out at least once. They host a food truck for dinner, in addition to options to purchase from the vendors, and a local band. Bring your own chair, grab a bite, and enjoy some tunes. Excited to see what's to come from the Lenexa Market! read more

I come by here with my cousin at least twice a week to study and get work done. It wasn't until today that we decided to get something other than a tea or coffee from the Roasterie. We started with a large pizza - 1/2 supreme and 1/2 meat lovers - and a flight of 4 beers from Topp'd. The pizza was thin crust, but filling. Definitely recommend the meat lovers pizza. My brother ordered a flight with Octoberfest and 3 different Free States beer. Our favorite was the lightest colored Free State as it was sweet in flavor and smooth in texture. We decided to end our visit with Mad Man's Nitrogen ice cream and boy was it a great end! Dorene was so wonderful! She described the process to us: 1) vanilla or chocolate base and 2) up to 3 toppings of your choice. We decided on a vanilla base with strawberry (added as a purée rather than fruit chunks), brownies and Reese's PB cups. She was so generous with the toppings and suffered the Nitrogen liquid for our delicious Nitrocream. Such incredible service and ice cream! We will definitely be returning to try some different combinations. read more

This place is really nice and chill to go hang out at. Inside they have a few restaurants and pop up stores. They also have a coffee shop here and even French macarons. You can order alcohol beverages at a few of the restaurants, too. They have a lot of tables and bar areas to enjoy your food/drinks. Bathrooms are clean. Outside they have quite a bit of sitting areas. At night they turn on the fire places for you and the string of lights outdoors. Very pretty! We've been here a few times. They hold events around here a lot. Like last Saturday night we went to the Food Truck Festival that was held here in the area. The area itself is pretty safe and well lit at night. Dog friendly and kid friendly. Lots of other shops around the area and a few hotels right across the street. All walking distance. The only reason why I don't come here more often unless there's an event being held is because of the surrounding area. There's really not a store that I would shop at. They should have brand name stores like Sephora, Gucci, or even H&M. read more

My co-workers and I spend countless hours in an office so it was so refreshing to finally check this place out especially since it's not too far down the street. We're always looking for a new lunch spot and this place filled those requirements and more. Not only is it inviting when you first walk-in with witty and cleverly stamped merchandise, but you are greeted by food and coffee. All of the merchants were very friendly and were willing to discuss their food options with you. There's additional seating upstairs, but we didn't make time to head up there; however, all of our needs of the days were on the first floor. We ended up sampling a little bit of everything, from bbq to burritos to bao. They were busy for the Friday lunch rush which is to be expected, but it wasn't overwhelming. It's a warm and cozy environment with a modern touch throughout. This is definitely something that Lenexa and near by neighborhoods have lacked so I happy to see a concept like this in the area. read more

Really enjoyed the West African food from Dream Cuisine. You pay about $15 to fill a to-go box/plate w/various food options from their little buffet. The potato and the chicken with THE SAUCE are a must. The bruschetta from the pizza place was really good too, but my kids thought the bbq pizza was a little too spicy for them. Looks like a taco spot is opening up inside soon! This is a great spot; would love to see the public market fill up w/vendors! read more

It is just not enough to say "I like Lenexa" because this is a city to LOVE. The Lenexa Public Market is an awesome addition to this already thriving burb. Although it's not quite finished yet, the space is already occupied by merchants and restaurants. The common area is well designed with comfy and cool furniture, sleek looking decor, and board games to make patrons feel right at home. It was a bit cold tonight to sit outdoors but we will definitely be back to sit by the fire pits outside while we watch the world go by. A beautiful addition to Lenexa! read more

I've been here multiple times for lunch because i work about 700 ft from the building so i come here for lunch and i swear 80% of the time they will not have a majority of the food places open. If this is a place for you to come get lunch i wouldn't plan on having many choices because 3/4 of the places will be closed and your only options will be a bakery for cookies for lunch. I highly recommend going elsewhere for lunch. read more

This place is conveniently located close to me so I go here often. It's a cool concept. Don't let the name fool you - this place is like a huge fancy food court with couches and comfy chairs. There are lots to buy as far as food goes. Coffee, ice cream, pizza, Japanese food, Mediterranean food, and some boutique shops. I go here to play board games with my group and there is plenty of seating. There is also an upstairs where they offer cooking classes and a quaint little museum with a few portraits and artsy stuff. Parking is easy to find as well. This place is all located in the Lenexa City Center and is growing like crazy. It's a very cool place in general. Give it a try! read more

Lenexa City Center continues to grow, and the Public Market is a nice new addition. The building itself is impressive both inside and out. The space is open and lively with music playing in the background, There was plenty of convenient paring outside, as well as in a near by parking garage. It's still finding it's identity. There are a few tenants, which are listed on their website. I think I counted ten, so it needs a few more to completely fill the space. I'm sure they won't have any problems in doing that. And, I know we will see vendors come and go until it's filled with established anchors, but you have to love the entrepreneurial spirit. You don't know if something will work if you don't try. I look forward to seeing the Lenexa City Center grow, as well as the Public Market. If they get a farmers market going too, I can see myself spending a lot of time here. Here's hoping for next Spring! read more
