I came with the wife and son, we waited in line, it was moving, so no issues. We each ordered a different coffee off of their seasonal menu so we could each try something different. We sat down and tastes essentially nothing but milk. All three of us tried each others, and everyone agreed there just wasn't anything there. I'm sure there was coffee in there somewhere, and yes they were all different, but there wasn't anything about any of them that was notable. We live 45 min away and was in the area for something else, but probably won't find a reason to return. The next door game shop was cool, and everyone in both shops were very nice.

The previous weekend I went to "Garden House Coffee" which is the same address as this coffee shop…read more I had this coffee shop on my list to try out and we went there today and it was closed even though the time on Yelp was listed as 1 am (I was thinking maybe they had cocktails??). When we pulled up I saw that it is the same place as Garden House and I believe this may be the section below inside the Garden House coffee shop. I had went to that section on my previous visit and it has nice seating and quiet and relaxing and had food and dessert options (non that were gluten free-I asked). The woman was nice that I spoke to and the latte I had was good but I bought it upstairs where the coffee was served.

I can't say enough good things about this shop. Easily the best coffee shop in Kansas City without…read morequestion. They have the best espresso in Kansas City. The same is true of their cold brew. Plus they make their chai in house and that's crazy good too. Their syrups are made in house, and they have a fantastic selection. House made caramel cardamom? Obviously yes. Plus they make their chocolate, white chocolate and caramel syrups. I'm not sure how they pull all of that off because it's all so good. I found some of the seasonal drinks lean toward the sweeter side if that's what you're looking for. Then there's the food. Which in any other shop would have started off my review (their drinks really are good enough to start with). They managed to put a full bakery into their tiny kitchen and make fresh focaccia every day and then use that for a handful or unique panini sandwiches. They literally have an overnight baker baking bread so they're not in the way of the baristas. Paninis sound like basic coffee shop fare, but the bread is so good. I wish you could order just the focaccia bread. The fig & prosciutto panini is the star of the show. But they also make a turkey and pesto one that's so good. Oh also this spicy Italian panini that uses nduja sausage. I've never had a panini like that anywhere. They make a chicken salad on a house made croissant baked that morning. There isn't a better chicken salad in Kansas City, and the croissants are actually outstanding by themselves (which unlike the focaccia, they do make enough croissants every day for you to take one home by itself if you want to). The cinnamon rolls are a classic and they're often gone by the time I get there. Honestly it's crazy when you make the best cinnamon rolls and they're still not the best thing on the menu. They're consistently soft, rich, pull apart and delicious. You can taste real vanilla in the icing. The details really stand out. The breakfast burrito is so good but they're usually sold out when I get. They're clearly made from scratch in small batches, which is the only way anyone should do it. I didn't mind waiting ten minutes because it's quite clear they're putting care and attention into quality. Food at coffee shops usually feels like an after-thought. Baked goods that are brought in from somewhere else. Microwaved breakfast items. I wouldn't normally think much about it. But everything I've had at the book club is has tasted so intentional and delicious. It's nuts that this place is in downtown Mission and is putting out such consistently fantastic food and drinks. Last thing that stands out is the staff. Their baristas are top notch. They clearly took time to find good people even though they just opened. This is a hospitality-focused shop which is absolutely missing in a lot of shops. Good people, genuine kindness, and they're all so good at what they do. This will forever be my shop.

I'm excited to come back and buy some books. They have some many titles I've had my eyes on. Plus a used book section is genius!

I went to Hi Hat a while back when they had their egg nog latte, and the woman at the counter who…read morehelped me out was incredibly nice. I was asking her a bunch of questions since I'd never been before, and she was patient with me, which I really appreciated. I'm a coffee snob. I like to actually taste the coffee when I drink lattes. To be fair, I can't remember if I got a double or quad shot based on her recommendation, but I do remember the coffee being really good. If I lived closer, I'd be going there all the time. For reference, my top coffee places for the greater KC area are: Hi Hat, Good Karma Coffee, Blip, and the Roasterie. I like balanced, smooth, medium-roast espressos that aren't too acidic. I also enjoy adding oat milk to my coffees. Of note: the place is microscopic, so don't plan on drinking there or meeting with friends there. Treat this place as a to-go stop, and you'll be golden. Overall, definitely recommend!

To wander into French Market, the lively and lovely sister brasserie to Café Provence, is to step…read moredirectly into a vibrant watercolor painting of community life. Here, the strict, timeless geometry of the Left Bank softens into a warm, sun-lit casual elegance, a neighborhood sanctuary where the hum of local politics replaces the brooding silence of the philosopher's corner. It is a space where the Democratic social scene is always in full, effervescent effect, a kinetic theater of ideas where local strategists, organizers, and policy wonks gather over marble tables to debate the future of the state while tearing apart freshly baked croissants. The air thickens not with existential dread, but with the electric, hopeful prose of a collective striving for progress, making it the definitive salon of the modern suburban landscape. The beauty of French Market lies in this seamless blending of civic passion and culinary delight. Every corner of the room feels curated with a benevolent affection, an atmosphere fueled entirely by a staff that can only be described as thoroughly fabulous. From the front counter to the busy kitchen, the team moves with a synchronized, smiling grace that makes every patron feel like the guest of honor at an intimate neighborhood gathering. They navigate the bustling room with a genuine warmth, pouring drinks and delivering plates with an infectious energy that elevates the casual setting into something truly extraordinary. It is a rare, beautiful thing to find a restaurant where the hospitality feels less like a service industry transaction and more like a generous act of civic kinship. On the plate, the market routinely touches the sublime, offering dishes that sing with a clear, poetic precision. The crab cakes are a revelation of coastal longing, packed with sweet, tender lump meat and boasting a delicate, golden sear that yields effortlessly to the fork. Nearby, the croque madame arrives as an opulent, dripping monument to breakfast-time indulgence, a decadent tower of savory ham and melted Gruyère crowned with a perfectly runny egg that coats each bite in a rich, golden velvet. To wash down these triumphs, one must order the French press coffee, a dark, aromatic brew that arrives in a slow, plunging ritual, delivering a bold, robust punch that commands your full attention and jump-starts any morning debate. While the kitchen operates at a remarkably high standard across the board, a discerning diner must exercise a small measure of tactical restraint when navigating the entrees. For all the brilliance on display, it is best to gently bypass the steak frites for the time being, steering clear of the dish until the kitchen source a more premium quality of beef to match their otherwise flawless standards. But this minor detour is easily forgotten the moment you glance toward the pastry case. The desserts here are an absolute, transcendent poetry of sugar and butter, offering delicate tarts and airy confections that are nothing short of sublime. French Market remains a triumphant, essential neighborhood jewel, where the food is exceptional, the people are magnificent, and the conversation never stops flowing.

Of the 4 shops we visited this was by far the weakest of the presentations and offerings. We received a 4oz sample of their Ranger Maple Latte and a 5 minute presentation on the business. The drink is tasty but definitely not on the same level as what other shops were providing in the amount of different products offered for samples and certainly not for quantity when focusing on only one product. I was surprised to learn that Front Range is owned by the "Made in Kansas City" retail chain. No offense to the presenter, she was welcoming and friendly, I just think a more detailed presentation of the company as a whole could have been given. I do like the Rocky Mountain cabin vibe that they have created to make you feel that you've traveled 10 hours west and holding up in a cafe in Breckenridge. 3 stars for Caffeine Crawl experience (this location only) 5 stars for ambiance. 4 stars for product and value

I'd be coming back to Front Range again and again. It was one of those "where have you been all my life?" moments. Like. don't ever leave.
