This place is a personal favorite of mine after a long night out. The service is quick despite the early morning rush and the place is always clean. The egg sandwich is my go-to and highly recommend! The desserts are also fresh and i've never had experienced a dessert that was stale which is nice. The cold brew is also great! Definitely one of my favorite spots for breakfast. read more

Wow! We were in the area and hungry for breakfast. This was a pleasant surprise! The bakery items looked delicious and the food was very good. They were pretty busy and had a line of customers! Waiting to place orders. Seemed like the young ladies may have been in training. read more

I have been to couple other Mclain's market places in our metro (Roe avenue & Gregory Blvd) & I've always loved their ambience, pastries and breakfast options. I'm so glad I stopped by this Mclain's market location at Shawnee after my morning bike ride. I saw a lot of fellow bikers stopping by this place for a breakfast after their ride. Lots of parking spots available in front of the store and street parking available too. Ambiance here has my whole heart. Beautiful place. Lots of tables, sofas, plants inside the store. I would've had a breakfast or a pastry like I usually do when I visit Mclain's. I've got only the signature latte this time. Loved the latte. Staffs here are super nice. They always carry a good smile with them. Can't wait to get back here for breakfast and pastries sometime soon. read more

McLain’s Market - Shawnee - Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Shawnee, Kansas

Easy 5 stars for a breakfast & coffee spot, especially if you want to go for something sweet. There's a wide variety of fresh pastries - my favorite being the cheese danish & almond cheese pocket. I always either get the breakfast burrito or one of the breakfast sandwiches. I would've posted a photo of the pastries....but I ate them too quickly! Restaurant is always clean and well kept. Service is friendly & fast - a bonus considering they've got a bunch of patrons and keep service up so you don't wait around. read more

The chocolate croissant was so delicious and I am obsessed with the decor. Very honest and friendly staff as well! Good study spot!

Met my mom and sister-in-law for lunch here on a Saturday. We were actually easily able to find parking and a table! My latte was good ! I LOVED the chicken wrap - probably my favorite part! Food was good all around. Wasn't a big fan of the coffee bbq sauce but had to try! Overall, I enjoyed my experience but probably would be more likely to go drive thru if I come back ! :) read more

Housed in a repurposed old garage, McLain's runs like a well-oiled machine. It's always busy, but somehow never feels chaotic. Food moves fast. Coffee moves faster. Staff stays calm. Everything flows. It's organized chaos done right. The seasonal drinks are consistently creative and actually good. Not just pretty for Instagram. Balanced, thoughtful, and well executed. And the bakery? Dangerous. The display case is pure temptation. Cinnamon rolls, pecan twists, danishes, cookies, scones. Everything looks like the right choice, which makes choosing impossible. They also have solid brunch plates and sandwiches if you're trying to pretend you're here for something other than sugar and caffeine. Now for the one miss. I ordered the pepper jack breakfast burrito, and unfortunately, it didn't live up to the rest of the experience. Flat flavors, mushy texture, no real identity. The hot sauce was doing most of the work. It felt out of place in a spot that clearly cares about quality. Thankfully, the bakery and coffee saved the day. The pecan twist was flaky, buttery, and just sweet enough. The seasonal latte with cold foam was smooth, balanced, and dialed in. Overall, McLain's is a Kansas City staple for a reason. Efficient, welcoming, and consistently good at what they do. One menu tweak away from being near-perfect. Solid 4-star spot. Would happily come back. read more

We arrived at 12:00pm on a Sunday and the main bakery case was empty, we were disappointed to not get to try some breakfast pastries. They did still have cakes and cupcakes. Instead we got the cake bites and a cookie. The cake bites were amazing. The Monster cookie was good. We also got the breakfast burrito, one with bacon and one with sausage. It was very good and fresh. We also got a cold brew and latte. Cold brew was good but the latte was sour. The service was very fast and friendly. read more

Amy food for a coffee shop/cafe. Went there for the coffee and was blown away by their food. Super quick service. Very friendly. Clean a neat atmosphere. Plenty of seating. Had the chicken with biscuits and gravy. Superb. Also had the cream cheese danish with almond. Magnificent. Chocolate Mocha just top it off. Everything was great! Now get you some!! read more

I love this little shop. I have been here quite a few times to grab some coffee, and a little bit of breakfast! So here is what you need to know. They have really good coffee. And can make you all the coffee/espresso drinks. Including the boozy options. So that is a plus! For bakery items, they have a great selection for their size and all of them are buttery and delicious. There typically are quite a few healthy options! But, then... they also have breakfast items beyond the croissants and muffins. I got the farmer's protein bowl. Complete with potatoes, eggs, sausage (pork because it is delicious), roasted peppers, and avocado. Healthier than most things I get but still amazing. Everyone in the place seems very well cross-trained. They switch between jobs with little to no issue it seems. I watched one of the staff come out from cooking and move over to ring someone out and then mix a drink. And that makes it feel like it is a small-town market as it is advertised. read more

"Avocado" "toast" that was completely soft and had store-bought guacamole spread in a paltry portion. Good luck finding a place to sit when single remote workers take up six tops! Also found the staff incredibly demeaning, as we we barked at within 30 seconds of sitting down to ensure our food tent number was appropriately-positioned so that the staff could read it. read more

I love McClains in Waldo in Kansas City, MO and inOverland Park KS but Lookie here! There another one in Shawnee KS with the same great food and bakery goodies. A big group called Joyful Community Over 50 got together to eat and chat. We had the back room which made it easy to hear one another. Loved my Bowl & shared a cup of tasty beautiful cookies! Thanks McLain's! read more

We were in the KS area for a long weekend trip and stopped at McLain's a couple of times. The pastry case was very tempting and I wanted to get one of everything. The McLain's iced latte was amazing.

We frequent other McLain's locations and are generally satisfied and find value with what we order. At this location, we found all of the food items to taste stale. The chicken salad sandwich had very little chicken salad and the chips were chewy. The Market Latte was actually quite good. This location needs tweaking to bring it up to the usual McLain's standard. read more

One stop shop for everything you need to get your morning started right. Buttery croissants? They got it! Freshly brewed coffee? They got it too! Delicious sandwiches? Many selections on their menu. Seriously, you can't go wrong here. My friend introduced me to their sugar cookies a few months ago. I fell in love. I am Asian. I don't like anything overly sweet. Their sugar cookies had just the right of sweetest to my liking. And that is a huge compliment coming from me! I love that is located in Shawnee Downtown and they have a lot of parking space. The space is very bright, clean, and spacious. All the staffs are friendly and helpful. Such a cute place to hang out with friends and family. Highly recommend. read more

Went here first thing on Saturday morning and the place was packed which is a sign of the good food and great atmosphere. I ordered the Pepperjack Burrito and although it was a bit messy the flavor and spice was phenomenal. Will definitely return to try more of the menu. read more

I must say, I believe this is the best restaurant in Shawnee. It's becoming a favorite of ours as we've loved the food each time. This was our first time dining in for lunch and the atmosphere is great too. Friendly staff, an array of products sold, and a beautiful setup for lots of natural light to come in, you'll enjoy your time here. Personally, I love the amount of healthy options they have. This time I went with the harvest quinoa bowl. Very fresh with great ingredients. read more

This place always rocks. Great quality food. Quick service. Excellent for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Everything is good on the menu. Coffee is great. It can get a little loud when it's busy but I have also found it to be a good place to study during the slower times back when I was in school. It's a converted mechanic shop so it's kind of new age industrial read more

McLain's Market has stood tall as one of my favorite local sit-in spots for a long time. Their coffee and snacks taste excellent. The staff's wide smiles and greetings create an inviting atmosphere. The prices don't range too far from that of Starbucks' menu, so not very expensive either. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to try something different than the usual franchises found here! read more

McLain's is great in general, and this location in Shawnee is no exception to that rule. My go-to brunch item is "the Farm" which is a really indulgent croissant breakfast sandwich featuring sausage, egg, and avocado. I usually struggle to finish it, but keep ordering it because I'm yet to find another breakfast item that even comes close to how tasty this one is. My only real qualm with McLain's, is that every location is always packed to the brim when I visit. Whether it's lunch during the week, or brunch on the weekend, it's a competitive sport to hunt and gather a seat for yourself. Bonus if you can snag a table for more than two people. It's a great problem for them to have, and I'm so grateful that such a fantastic local spot does so well, I just wish that as they expanded they created more space for folks to sit, or perhaps offered table service and/or seated people just to cut down on the chaos during peak hours. That might not lend into the laid back atmosphere they are trying to foster, but it would make my Saturdays less stressful :-) At any rate, I can't recommend McLain's more if you're looking for a stellar local bakery and lunch spot. If you do play the game of finding a table, an extra challenge is to try and leave without purchasing a chocolate chip cookie. You get about 100 bonus points if you do because they are so delicious, it's truly hard to not indulge. read more

Maybe caught this place on a super-busy morning. I expected a better experience based on a recommendation. I thought it was very noisy, and a bit confusing. No. The customer does all the work, from ordering at the counter, to grabbing silverware, finding a seat, getting your own coffee, bus your own dishes, etc. Despite the lack of any service, the suggested tip is the 18,22,25%. The ambience is not bad, except for the squeaking of the metal chairs on the concrete floors. The food came out quickly and I enjoyed the chorizo bowl. read more

We had a very special birthday party for our mom with about 35 folks including 10 children. We enjoyed delicious sandwiches and quinoa salad plus the not to miss McLains desserts and cake. The children and adults loved the hot chocolate. McLains was able to help us have a menu that met dietary goals from Vegan to Keto to Gluten Free. We highly recommend McLains in Shawnee for a special party or event . Our group at 35 folks or so was just right for the event space. read more

Great people work there! The food, especially the baked goods, are amazing. You need to get there early for the best selection. The building is a remodeled garage. There are nooks and big rooms to set in and chat while you eat. It's a favorite ! read more

I was really sad that this place did not give what I expected it to give. It was all just okay. I had the CBS (chicken bacon sandwich) and it was a flop all around. My sandwich had the smallest piece of meat on this huge ciabatta bread. The chicken had to be about 3 oz.... The fries looked good but they were soft and had no crisp to them. I also tasted someone's avocado toast and it didn't taste toasted, and the avocado was more of a quac spread with no actual flavor. Now, my matcha was pretty good and that's the positive. Also, in their facility you clean off your own tables before and after which I was not a fan of. Idk y'all.... It just wasn't a win for me. read more

I've been to McLain's several mornings for brunch and each time I go I am reminded why I come back. The atmosphere here is so relaxing and inviting with plenty of sunlight coming in to enjoy a conversation and the tasty food! I typically stick with a vanilla latte and the very berry sunflower toast, which is a great way to start the day. The staff is attentive and kind and willing to answer any questions. If you're in a rush, but still want McLain's, they have a drive through which is very convenient! If you're looking for a new local brunch place, be sure to give this place a try! read more

I love Mclains- but I might stick to the bakery items. The cup cookies are to die for. I got the " girl breakfast" because that sounds so fun and right up my alley! It just didn't taste as good as I had hoped for $10! The sausage was yuck and the fruit sour. The cup cookie tasted old.The daughter wouldn't touch anything . We ordered chiefs cup cookies to go and I am sure they will be a hit! I love the cakes here as well. I think I'll stick to bakery. Updating to say I tried one of the cup cookies I ordered ahead and it's delicious and just what they should taste like. read more

Food-4.5/5 Service-5/5 Atmosphere-4.5/5 Went to grab lunch here on a Saturday and it was pretty busy. They had a great flow for customers so we were able to place our orders and get our food rather quickly. I ordered the half sandwich half salad option and I loved my salad! I got the Mediterranean/Greek salad and the dressing no was a bit sweet but it tasted so light and fresh. For my half sandwich I chose Turkey and the spread that they put on the sandwich was not my favorite, but otherwise it was tasty. I shared a side of fries with my husband and they tasted homemade which was definitely a plus! Overall I enjoyed grabbing lunch here and would definitely go back again. read more

Whenever I want brunch, I suggest McLain's! Their pastries of course are good, but what shines is their breakfast/brunch. It's always hard to choose what my favorite is, but I go back and forth between The Farm sandwich and their Market Bowl - both so amazing! The poblano sauce on the sandwich is something I could drink on its own. I also love getting a latte with their Market Syrup! read more

I love the McLain's Market concept. It is a full restaurant/cafe, but with coffee shop vibes that mean you can sit there for hours on your laptop or reading a book. Their expansive menu of breakfast, lunch, pastries, and treats, as well as coffees, sodas, etc. mean that you can order one thing when you get there, and another a couple of hours later. I like to get coffee and breakfast, and then a soda later on. I also love the space. I prefer spots that have a diverse selection of seating - and McLains has got that. Couches and arm chairs, tables, booths, window seats, etc. The entire front of the space is windows, providing ample natural light. The decor is trendy and warm. I've been here several times, and there is typically a good amount of patrons there - enough for the space to feel bustling, but not too many where you can't find a spot. The staff is also wonderful. I've had experiences where they remember my name. I've had staff check on me after I've received my food to see how it is. Today, staff was very flexible with me in modifying a dish to fit the requirements of an elimination diet that I'm currently on. If anything, I wish they were open later than 2 PM. I acknowledge that the business has probably made this decision because it makes sense for them financially. I've been there twice at closing time and been disappointed I had to leave. :( read more

McLain's Market was the best start to our Kansas City vacation; it was recommended to us by a friend. We easily found parking, & upon strolling in I was enamored by their decor and setup. We ordered our lunch and was so surprised to see they had SPARKLING WATER ON TAP. Like for free. It was like getting a free Topo Chico. Loved it. We quickly got our food, & it was so fresh and healthy. Both their chips & fries are good choices, you can't go wrong with either. I was happy to see that plenty of condiments and the paper to-go boxes were available to serve ourselves. We took some extra pictures with the wall decor & a waitress informed us of the restaurant's cool history. Would return in a heartbeat! read more

McLain's can do no wrong! I don't often visit this location as I don't live close to it but it is always just as busy as the others. There is so much seating offered which they honestly need because of how busy it gets. They offer the same delicious menu as the other locations. I usually get the market bowl but this time I changed it up and got the pepper jack burrito which was A+. The bakery items always are amazing! This is such a great location for McLain's and is great for a variety of reason! I will for sure be back next time I'm in the area. read more

My first time here. I went through the drive-through and ordered a market place latte. It was made with honey and cinnamon. I got it iced and it was a delight. I may treat myself to another one today! read more

Ideal place for a delicious and healthy (or more hearty) lunch and dessert! I was blown away. Their selection is perfect and their bakery is outstanding. The people who work here are so nice and helpful, and the decor is great as well. It smells amazing as soon as you walk in the door- always a good sign. And it's really affordable! $40 for three meals plus desserts and drinks. I had the primavera cauliflower bowl and it was outstanding. Such fresh ingredients, artful presentation (this is a walk-up casual cafe, and they obviously hired top of the line chefs that you usually only find in pricier establishments), and a great combination of flavors. I also loved the bowl they served it in- very pleasing to the eye. I had a bite of my mom's grilled cheese which was also delicious. And the desserts! I had a mini carrot cupcake and the chocolate ganache cake bite. Both were outstanding and I can't wait to visit again! read more

Very modern look & surprisingly quiet. Every area had its, "designated" vibe I guess you can say, if you want peace & quiet, closer to the lounge is where you find it. If you want a feeling of the morning rush, the patio & closer to the baristas is the spot for you. Extremely clean & the baristas are very nice, you will never feel rushed when trying to order. Now the food, we had the market bowl with ham (not the only protein available), the market bowl, pepper-jack burrito, & an apple danish. The breakfast potatoes on the bowl were great, as well as the eggs, & the cooked ham. You ever see food & say, "I don't even need condiments for this"? That's what the bowl looked like & tasted. The pepper-jack burrito was epic as well, & the portions were perfect, not too much, not too little. The matcha was gone before the food, & the market latte had the perfect bitter-sweet taste. The Apple danish is exactly what you'd expect it. Flaky & fluffy when warm, delicious & sweet when ate. read more
