Not only do they always have some amazing seasonal drinks that they rotate out, but their normal drinks are also amazing! They roast their own coffee in house, sometimes you can see them roasting in the window as you grab your drink. Every single person that works in here is sweet as can be, but Theo has to be one of my favorites! He is always in such a positive mood if I come by in the mornings and it always puts a smile on my face when hes in the window. The owners are also extremely kind, and I always enjoy their happy vibes when I come by before work. My favorite drinks have to be their seasonal christmas cookie latte, the orange cardamom latte, and the Fresh Thai Tea with some espresso added!

It's been a while since I've stopped by, and shame on me, but I was so glad it was open as I had errands to run and needed a coffee pick-me-up! This drive-thru offers great coffee, awesome flavors, and friendly service. I got the medium Butterbeer Latte made with Irish cream and butterscotch. So so tasty! Loved it! They offer a variety of coffees, chai, and matcha topped with great prices. They do have seating space to go in and enjoy your coffee break if you want, but LOVE the convenience of a good drive-thru! What I love about these small local coffee shops is they have their own unique flavors and seasonal menus. Putting this one in my coffee house rotation for sure!

The place is pretty small with just a table and 2 chairs for waiting, they also have a drive thru which I believe is best because the inside is so small and can't really fit lots of people but I do however appreciate that they still have the inside open for those who are like me and still like stepping into places. I honestly wish this was closer to my house but now I have a go to spot when I'm visiting my grandma.

Felt like I had just walked into an old high school field party but much more refined with coffee instead of kegs. Lol. They had so many coffee flavors to choose from. I ended up going with amaretto because it is impossible to find elsewhere. The coffee was spectacular. Someone noticed that I was trying to catch up with a friend and brought a coloring book out for my 5 y/o. Very much appreciated. All the staff was more than helpful, recommended drinks and were always giving out smiles. So happy my friend introduced me to this place. It is also Veteran owned and they give a Veterans discount.

The place itself has a lot of comfy seats, a lot of space to set your food and drinks down along with a laptop or note books, and the bathroom was clean which is always a plus! They have a drive through or you can go inside, the service inside was fast and the food and drinks were great! 10/10 experience!

Great people that roast their own beans and partner with charities to give back to the community.

I'm kind of new to the matcha scene and I like sweeter flavors, so I was able to control the amount of sweetness to my drink.

The space is beautiful with activities you can do while you sit as well as a trinket box or you can leave one take one. I came on a Saturday afternoon, so it wasn't busy and parking was great. I will definitely be back!

I had the sugar-free oat milk iced latte and my husband had a hot Irish cream latte. I also had the gluten-free chocolate brownie and he had a blueberry muffin. The brownie and muffin were very good and he said his latte was excellent. Unfortunately, my latte was not that good and it's probably just because it was sugar-free. I'm sure if I would've gotten a regular syrup it would've been fine. Quite a few coffee shops when I order sugar-free have an overly saccharin taste to them and this sugar-free syrup did as well. The coffee shop was clean and attractive, and the ambience was and the music was a good level. The bathrooms were clean as well. The only negative is that I thought the seating was uncomfortable. I have some low back issues, but even without the low back issues, I think the seating would be too hard. I started off sitting at a bench against the wall that had cushion seating and some pillows, but then I switched to the opposite chair that was a type of rattan chair. But that was uncomfortable as well, so we ended up leaving. I think overall the coffee shop is very nice, it's quite a distance from our house so we probably wouldn't go again only for that reason.

The reason why I am not giving this place 5 stars is because of the lack of customer service. Both the cashier and barista were not very friendly. They were brisk. I tried to engage in a converation about their pastries and they seemed disinterested and just wanted to move on to taking orders and making drinks. They weren't even busy. I arrived an hour after they opend and the place was 10% full. The food was good. I got the avocado toast and with a littl more salt and hot sauce; it was delicious. The place also smelled amazing. I was engulfed in the aroma of cinnamon, sugar and butter and roasted coffee. I could not have been happier except for the lack of warmth and feeling of connection and a sense of community one often gets in an independent coffee shop. The hot latte I got was good. Oat-milk was $1.25 extra which I thought was a bit steep for Kansas City. But I guess prices/inflation affects us all. The ham and cheese croissant I got was super delicious. It was better than the avocado toast. I would get the croissant again. The rooftop area was a vibe. There were more people up there talking so it had better energy. I think on the first and second floor, most people were just working and on their laptops, so it was overall very quiet.
