    My friend sent me a read ahead of places to try while I was in KC and he was otherwise occupied and actually had a work vendor who lives in KC and Oddly Correct was on both their list. The coffee didn't call to me (not a coffee fan) but homemade biscuits? Limited batches? I'm sure I could find a non-coffee drink. I got there a little before 930 in the morning, took a look at how busy outside it was and hoped that there were still some biscuits left. When it was my turn to order that was the firs thing I asked was if there were any biscuits left and there was. I was honestly not sure of my next move, so I asked for some help. The person behind the counter said that the build your own option was popular and whatever I add to make sure pimento cheese was on it-since it was almost out. Great, let's do that with egg and sausage. I was looking at the teas but...bourbon vanilla latte? I asked again, is that for real or is it mostly just vanilla? I was assured actual bourbon was used in the syrup. I admitted that I'm not a coffee fan so I'd again follow her lead. She said she likes it with Oat Milk and then asked if I wanted a reusable/refillable glass. I said sure why not, it's a little souvenir. I found a nice seat, plugged in, logged into their wifi and my sandwich came to me, stacked. The pimento cheese was as described piled high that boosted a little spice of the sausage and the smoothness of the egg. The bourbon vanilla latte was friggin delicious! If I lived in KC I'd definitely be a regular coffee drinker for sure? Proof? I finished my drink then got up to get a refill the same visit-jitters be damned!

    Vanilla bourbon latte

    Finally got to check Oddly Correct off the list of coffee shops to try in KC! We got a breakfast sandwich and the vanilla bourbon latte and both were delicious. My fiancé got the hot cake sandwich which was okay but texture-wise wasn't my thing, but I loved my biscuit. The coffee was incredible and I can't wait to bring my jar back to get it discounted next time. The line was long but moved along pretty fast. Seating was fairly limited for a busy day but could see this being a good place to get some work done remotely and they had some picnic tables for outdoor seating. Pricey but worth it on a special occasion weekend outing!

    I was dragging on the morning that I stopped in and Yelp had told me that this coffee shop was right around that corner from where I had to work that morning. I wish I had more time to stay and eat and drink my coffee, but I grabbed an Iced Latte and muffin to go. I was a bit confused when my order was ready and they gave me a glass jar, lid and koozie with their lab on it. When I asked I was told to help prevent landfill that is what they use as the togo cups. Such a cool Idea not only to help reduce trash but I will definitely remember it. My coffee was good and so was the muffin, I need to stop in here when I have more time.

    I was finally able to try a biscuit sandwich from Oddly Correct! On the weekends, Oddly is packed wall to wall, and they sell out of their handmade flaky biscuits early in the day. On a weekday, there was plenty of seating and plenty of biscuits to be had. They have a build-your-own biscuit menu with topping options like sausage, cheese curds, jam, and bacon. Highly recommend cheese curd. The biscuits are so crumbly and flaky that this is definitely a knife and fork sandwich experience (silverware available by the water/busing station). Oddly Correct is known for their coffee but they have caffeine free options like their turmeric tea available too. I love their unique science-y drink set up if you decide to stay in for your beverage. Their to-go coffees are served in reusable glass jars! Super sustainable. The service was quick and friendly! Plenty of street parking on a weekday, but expect to walk a bit on the weekends.

    This spot is currently in my #2 spot for coffee of all of KC (hefty list, so this means a lot). I love how they don't use landfill items and everything is glass. Not only is the coffee so smooth and delicious that you'll have a hard time not keep ordering more, but I also got the biscuit where you can add your ingredients that you'd want and it was the perfect mix of tasting homemade and perfect. I got the biscuit with bacon, egg and cheese and it was fantastic. The bacon was thick and cooked perfect. The biscuit was a great mix of flakey. The space is good sized, but it can fill out fast and it was cool to see all of the old printer pieces too. Beautiful, airy place filled with plants so it feels like a breath of fresh air. The employees are super kind and helpful. I highly recommend!

    I am very picky about my coffee and I loved their vanilla bourbon iced latte!! Perfect amount of sweetness/espresso flavor. Seems like you only get one of those jars/koozies with to-go orders. Place has a good vibe!

    Instagram made us do the trek to Oddly Correct to try their famous breakfast sandwiches. This place was so cute! Loved the outside paint on the building. The inside was spacious and had a lot of light coming in. Also good decor. Lots of merch and other goodies to shop for. I got an iced chai latte, which is some of the best I have ever tried. My boyfriend got a rosella tea, which was also good. Now onto the real stuff - the biscuits. The Hotcakes Sandwich was surprisingly good. I didn't know what the expect but it was a nice portion with overall good flavor. Build your own biscuit option was also good. Everything was hot and freshly made. Outdoor seating area was large but could use some shade and maybe even some comfortable lounge area. Private lot and street parking.

    Latte with Macadamia Nut milk
    Michelle R.

    Loved this cool little coffee shop! We ate outside on the picnic tables. After ordering, they gave us a table number and they brought our food and drinks out to us. For eats we ordered: bacon biscuit with cheese curds, plain sausage biscuit, also, sausage biscuit with egg, cheese curds and orange marmalade. My Americano with macadamia milk was served "to go" (I requested that) in a little jar that I can return with for refills.

    I haven't updated my review since they moved to their newer location on Troost (they were formerly on the edge of Main St. on Westport). It's a big improvement overall! The most recent morning in, it was 20 degrees so naturally no one is lingering out on their gigantic patio, but you can imagine during the warmer months it's a nice place to set up. One thing about this coffee company is that they continually find a way to humble me and remember how uncool I am. They have two counters set up, and I chose the wrong one. I got my coffee to go and when the barista started filling up a glass jar I reminded her it was "to-go" which she sort of rolled her eyes like, "I know dude, this is our to-go cup" energy. First time I've ever seen it, a gentle explanation would suffice. Definitely some of those too-cool-for-school vibes here, but dammit if the coffee doesn't hit every single time. It's so good. I love black coffee and their drip coffee is on par with a quality pour over elsewhere. They roast it beautifully and have it down to a science. I'll go here occasionally for the great coffee, and take some beans home for special occasions. Not an everyday coffeeshop for me and would love some warmer, more welcoming vibes more consistently from this place.

    Pourover and sausage, bacon, cheese, and egg muffin
    Hana H.

    I found this place when I was visiting Kansas City on my own for the first time and needed some good coffee. Specialty coffee lovers in Kansas City, this is going to be your go-to cafe and roastery! I visited in June 2024 and have been back several times throughout 2024. They have single origin pourovers, multiple different milk coffee drinks, a variety of teas, and black tea drinks like chai and london fog. I've tried their Ethiopian and Kenyan pourovers, the latte, and london fog. All have been good but the london fog was phenomenal, best one I've ever had! Pourovers were balanced and enjoyable, and latte was nutty and chocolatey. I've tried some food items too, like the breakfast biscuit, blueberry coffee cake, hojicha chocolate chip cookie, matcha macaroon, and a strawberry shortcake muffin. They were all good, nothing amazing but a nice snack after your coffee for sure. When it comes to just the drinks and food, I would probably rate it 4-4.5 stars. Everything is solid. But based on the good vibes, I would bump it up to 5. The shop feels so welcoming and quirky down to the artwork and interior, and the customer service is friendly. You can even watch the roasting happen if you're sitting at the high chairs in the back of the shop. A great place to go when you're in downtown KC and you wanna feel comforted. That's certainly what I do! PS: One thing I would like to see from Oddly is more descriptive notes about the single origin beans in general. Notes like "nutty" "clean" "silky" etc are fine but it would be awesome to get more specific notes to figure out whether it's something that I'd want to try like what kind of fruit or what kind of nut.

    Hot cake sandwich
    Kelsey P.

    Incredible! I really enjoyed this place. They have so many decaf options including cold brew which nobody usually has! I got a decaf bourbon vanilla latte with oat milk, and the sausage jalapeño artichoke biscuit, and split a donut with my husband. The coffee was divine. So, so delicious. The breakfast sandwich was amazing. It wasn't spicy but it was so good. The donut was fascinating. It had a weird texture for a donut, almost angel food cake like? Sort of like soft and chewy, but it was probably the best donut I've ever had. My husband got the hot cake sandwich and wouldn't even let me try it because it was too good lol. Everything here was top notch. I'd definitely come back!

    Eclectic little coffee shop in a hip area of town. Once a house it was converted to a coffee shop. We came for the GIBRALTER drink (a cortado). I enjoyed their version of the drink but not enough to come back. Was a cute little coffee shop though.

    Ask the Community - Oddly Correct

    Can you walk in & buy a bag of coffee, or do you have to follow an order process that makes you pick up on on Friday's?

    We have bags of coffee ready to grab any time on our shelves! No pre-ordering necessary, just walk in and grab a bag or ask a barista for assistance or a recommendation.

    Is there a menu posted anywhere? I can't seem to find one on their website or on here. Really want to try, I'd just like to see a menu to browse my options first!

These biscuits are stacked so high and loaded so heavy, you'll need a game plan, a fork, and maybe a pep talk from your server (who, by the way, is probably the nicest person you've ever met before 10 a.m.). Let's start with the Bloody Marys--absolute perfection. Spicy, savory, and went down easy! Pair that with the fact that my biscuit sandwich came out looking like a Jenga tower of delicious chaos, and I knew I was in for something special. The first bite? Fireworks. The last bite? A fork fight at the table over the remaining crumbs. One of my sandwiches came dripping with sauce like it was starring in its own Food Network slow-mo reel. The other was a crunchy, tangy, biscuit-lovin' masterpiece stacked with perfectly fried chicken, cabbage slaw, and dreams. This place is not for the faint of appetite. You will leave full. You will need a nap. And you will already be planning your next visit before you even finish your drink. 10/10. Bring your hunger, your friends, and stretchy pants.

They had several cocktail sweetheart- themed drink specials. Brunch was delicious - everything was so good. Huge portions. The biscuits were huge and delicious. It's a carb lovers dream. Vegetarian options. Patrons can order off the other menus - atomic cowboy and fat sully. So there's something for everyone. We walked out in a carb coma. Compliment not a complaint.

    In the storied enclave of Waldo, where the rhythm of Kansas City pulses with a quiet, neighborly…read morecharm, there stands a sanctuary not of silent stone, but of flour, butter, and memory: McLain's Bakery. To step through its threshold is to surrender to the siren song of warmth that curls from the oven like a whispered secret. I have made it my pilgrimage to traverse the entirety of their menu, a culinary odyssey that has yielded no false steps, only a symphony of consistency that borders on the miraculous. Each offering, from the flaky, golden architecture of their pastries to the robust, honest comfort of their savory fare, is a testament to the artisan's hand. Here, affordability is not a sacrifice of quality but a generous invitation, a rare confluence where the exquisite meets the accessible. There is a certain magic in the air at McLain's, a sweetness that feels woven into the very fabric of the establishment. It is a place that understands the language of comfort, speaking it fluently in the dialect of a perfect crust or the rich, dark notes of a expertly pulled espresso. It is perhaps no surprise that such a bastion of authentic delight has garnered a reputation that extends far beyond our local borders; if the standard of excellence is high enough to grace the plate of Taylor Swift, then surely, it is more than enough for us, the grateful residents who claim this treasure as our own. Yet, beyond the flour-dusted counters and the glowing glass cases, my deepest admiration is reserved for their spirit. In a world that often measures worth in cold, transactional metrics, McLain's chooses to honor those who pour themselves into the future of our community. As a teacher, I feel that recognition in the small gestures, the welcoming nods, and the genuine appreciation they extend to educators. It is a profound kindness, a recognition that the work of shaping minds requires nourishment, both intellectual and literal. They understand that a classroom is a marathon, and they act as the essential pit stop, providing the fuel that keeps the light of inquiry burning bright. To dine at McLain's is to participate in a ritual of belonging. It is a place where the passage of time is marked not by the ticking of a clock, but by the turning of the oven trays. It is a reliable heartbeat in the neighborhood, steadfast and true, offering a reprieve from the clamor of the outside world. Whether one seeks a quiet moment of reflection over a cup of coffee or a celebratory feast that honors the simple, profound joy of eating well, McLain's remains an unrivaled steward of taste. It is not merely a bakery; it is the living, breathing soul of Waldo, a place where every bite serves as a reminder that some things in this life are exactly as good as they ought to be.

    For the first time ever I used McLain's for catering and I'm officially bumping my review from 4 to…read more5 stars because honestly they did such a spectacular job at such a reasonable price I'm already wishing I had another excuse to order from them again! A few months ago my sister and I hosted a baby shower for our other sister and after looking around an options we decided to go with McLains. It was a smaller group, and we were doing a brunch theme, and our sister LOVES sweets. That paired with our desire to support local, and our shared love of McLains, this was just the most obvious choice. We ended up ordering a cake and first of all I have to say their cake flavor choices are insane - I think we settled on a chocolate cake with peanut butter filling (YUM), but I don't think you can go wrong here. We also ordered one of their pre-set pastry bundles for pick up and honestly everything was wonderful. I think I placed the order about a week out and it was ready when I came to pick it up. What pushed this experience into five star category for me? Just the friendliness of the staff, the serving tools they send you home with, and how thoughtful everyone was. The food was also really just exactly what we needed and it was so good there were hardly any leftovers, I think the kids cleared us out by lunch! At any rate, if you're on the hunt for a great spot to support for your next brunch event consider McLains - they won't let you down!

Seating might be full, but there's both counter seating in the open concept kitchen or tables on the other side. A lot of people rave about their breakfast burritos or breakfast biscuit sandwiches. My out of town guests love them too when I bring them here. I'm here to rave about their weekend only croissants. You can only get them on Saturday or Sunday because it takes a days to ferment and laminate the dough. The quality of their ingredients shines in even the simplest plain croissant. I'll occasionally venture into the chocolate or almond version. They rival some of the best I've had in NYC, SF or Paris. In KC, the only other rivals can be found at French Market or Sour Rabbit Bakery. I'm glad their croissants are weekend only so I can have them as an occasional treat. I find their other pastries, especially the tarts, biscuits or scones are also lovely. For a baked goods focused spot, I'd say their cold brew is also pretty great quality as well. Usually I'd go to another coffee shop for a fix, but I'm okay grabbing both a croissant and cold brew here. I haven't been for their "after hours" dinner specials, but that's next on my to do list there!
