This place is so cute! When you walk in you immediately had to the left and there's a line that has the menus in chalk so you can review them while you wait which I thought was a really nice touch. When you get to the front you can order and they've got a great assortment of pastries, right there for you to pick from which we did. They were a Scotch too sweet for my taste, but I can see how most people would just love them. Definitely felt homemade not mass produced which I also love. The vibes were immaculate. I would say very organic less trending more authentic. The food was really good. The pancakes in particular were really really tasty. Like a 10 out of 10 would recommend if you have anything here make sure you at least get a side pancake or it's wrapped in a pancake. The coffee is also self service and they have a little coffee station which is nice. I also appreciate that you don't sit until you are fully ordered so basically people can't park at tables which is really nice. The outdoor seating space right on the sidewalk is nice. That's where we chose to sit. There are lots of large tables if you have a lot of people, but also a lot of tables were two, which was perfect for us. Overall, we look forward to going back and trying something new.! read more

This is one of my family's favorite place to eat in the city!! Never a dull moment, always friendly very inclusive, making for a great representation of Kansas City's artist culture. The manager helped me work through issues on a very hard day when I could not figure out the proper payment method to pay for an order for my children lunch order after a long day. Super genuine and understanding The ambience here is very fun and eclectic. The coffee is delicious, highly recommend the Cobb salad. It is absolutely perfect. Unique with lima beans my favorite part. Their house dressing is amazing too. We are health nuts, and this place checks every box. Will always return. read more

I went here with a friend one random morning, and it was a really nice place. I had bacon French toast and eggs, and my food was really good. My friend had the strawberry matcha, which I tried and it was really great. I had the orange juice which was one of the most freshest orange juices I've ever had. I think the vibe is really nice for a casual breakfast, whether they want to go alone or with someone else. I will say, a space can get pretty tight, but I would definitely go again. Oh yeah, and service.. amazing! You do pay before you sit down and watch your food, just wanted to make folks aware. read more

Cool spot. It's a little confusing because you order at the counter in the back and then they seat you. So you're kind of waiting in line to order until they can seat you so it can be a little odd. But while you wait, you can admire the huge creepy lady eating soup that's painted on the wall. yikes hahaha. The food is decent. I have never been blown away by anything here, as it's not the best brunch spot but it's definitely still cute and a vibe. read more

Such a cute restaurant! We came right when they opened and the service was friendly and fast. I ordered the mushroom eggs benedict and it was fantastic. My friends ordered the burrito of love and the pancakes and both were thoroughly enjoyed. The prices were not too shabby either. Would come back here again 100%. read more

GET THE ELVIS Best thing we ate hands down! The crispy caramelized pieces of the bananas and the caramel syrup was the star! The toast was light and fluffy but soaked up everything well without being soggy (PS ITS ALSO VG) The monte cristo was flavorful but not our favorite. The coffee was amazing, not too bitter and smooth! The seasonal drinks we got were so refreshing and very vibrant. The pancake could feed a family of four...or one grown man who loves pancakes. Definitely a showstopper size wise. Staff is friendly and so fun! This is a queer friendly establishment and they love to vibe with all who come. It's a must! Expect a line! Order and pay at counter before seating your party. read more

My wife and I hadn't been to Succotash for years and I thought we were due for a visit after it was featured in the KC Star. I really wanted to get some fresh squeezed OJ, and I scratched that itch. I've always enjoyed the juiced options here. I ordered a Build Your Own breakfast burrito with bacon, sausage gravy, mushrooms and roasted red peppers. I was beyond satisfied with that choice. My wife ordered the pancakes and the pancakes are good but there's something different about the syrup. We don't like it, and that's why I stayed away from the pancakes. Everyone working there was very friendly. They helped us get setup at a table with a high chair for our toddler. read more

Succotash - BYO Breakfast Burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

I had been looking forward to visiting Succotash to experience their unique take on a European-style breakfast fused with American -- especially Midwestern and Southern -- influences. This place immediately caught my attention with its creative and distinctive menu offerings. Their pancakes have their own twist, the French toast is unlike any I've had elsewhere, and even the Hollandaise sauce for their Benedicts has a unique flavor profile. Succotash is set in a charming, vintage building that gives off a cozy, nostalgic vibe -- like stepping into a beloved old diner with character. I ordered the French toast, which was absolutely outstanding, and also tried one of their omelets, which was delicious as well. There's still so much on the menu that I'm eager to go back and try. The process here is casual: it's first come, first serve. You order and pay at the counter first, then find an open table. There's no reservation system, but seating moves quickly thanks to the super efficient service. The staff are exceptionally friendly, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. Parking is plentiful, which is always a bonus in the city. If you're looking for a creative, laid-back breakfast or brunch spot in Kansas City, Succotash is definitely worth a visit! read more

I was initially frightened when I saw the setup here: you wait in a long line, order, get a number, then sit down. The space is tiny and space is elbow-to-elbow...how could this possibly work?! Well, the system just works. I don't know how, but it does. The input flow magically matches the output flow. I ordered the pork has and grabbed a stool at the bar. It arrived disturbingly fast. Almost food-court-Chinese-fast. It was plated beautifully and tasted incredible. My only critique is that I wish it came with a house-made hot sauce rather than the assortment of spicy vinegars. I was so impressed that the very next day I came here again! This is my favorite type of breakfast joint, everything is housemate, and a great mixing in melting of old school and new school breakfast ideas! read more

First time here, and compared to other reviews I think I got them on an off day. Showed up just after lunch time, it was super slow, only about 5 other customers. Person taking my order was very nice, even if I had to repeat myself. Ordered a coffee and the ham Benedict, sub salad for the potatoes. No one gave me a coffee cup so I ended up asking the barista for one. No big deal, just odd since they explain it is self serve. The Benedict...was soooo blanketed in hollandaise I actually scraped half of it off. That's not a problem, but the problem was how thick it was...and not hot. Room temp, super thick hollandaise is a bit off putting. The beer bread that was the base was surprisingly good and held up to the egg and sauce well. The side salad was tasty, with different than standard toppings, which I appreciate. I think it's a bit ridiculous to charge $8 for a side salad sub though. Ouch. I'll prob give them another shot, eventually, but skip the blanket of hollandaise. read more

It had been forever since I made it to Succotash, so it was high time for a return! We moved away from the midtown area a few years back, so it's been a little more inconvenient to make it downtown for breakfast as easily as it once was. However, after a lovely breakfast today, I just have received the motivation I needed to make the trek from the southwest suburbs more often! My aunt and I popped in mid morning, and the dining room was only about a quarter full. Plenty of options for seating abound - window, bar, booths, indoor, outdoor, and more! We placed our order at the counter and had a seat near the window and door to enjoy the unseasonably gorgeous weather! My aunt had gluten free pancakes, and I had the Maggie Cristo, which was a riff on the classic Monte Cristo, but with goat cheese and lingonberries! The sammy was fantastic!! But, as the counter attendant warned me, and I will pass along: you MUST like goat cheese to enjoy this, as it truly shines through even the other strong ingredients! My aunt loved her pancakes! The dining room is eclectic and fun, with some nice pieces of art around. The wait staff was on the "quieter" side of frequncy at the table, which was actually pretty nice. We enjoyed our conversation with minimal interruption, and the waiter was by a couple of times to take dishes. For the coffee lovers: it's refill-yourself-galore at the bar! The coffee is very tasty, so I had numerous refills! Parking might be my only beef - we were fortunate to find street parking about a half block up to the east! Food = 5/5 Facility = 3/5 Service = 3/5 Ambiance = 3/5 Value = 3/5 read more

I had heard good things, but my experience exceeded my high expectations. Great gluten-free choices, friendly and fast service, big portions, delicious food, what more could you ask for? I'll be back and I'll be bringing friends. read more

This place is a real, old-fashioned diner. The pancakes are bigger than your head, and everything that I have had here has been great. We had the short stack and the Southwest Kitchen sink, and the proportions were huge. I would definitely recommend sharing any plates, or planning to take leftovers home! I was not super impressed with the iced coffee, so I would recommend getting a normal cup of coffee or juice. read more

After an amazing trip to the WWI Museum downtown, we decided to get brunch in the area. I saw this cute little place close with great reviews. I believed the hype and our party of four wandered in. You order at the counter and sit down after. Our drinks showed up promptly, which was great bc I desperately needed that Mocha after a museum. The food came out quickly and was delicious. Corned beef hash rocked, French toast was sweet and hot, all the eggs were cooked to order and correct. I really enjoyed everything. I appreciated the fun decor in particular. Pink chandelier and all. read more

Wanted to love the place because it's a neighborhood diner and even though I don't love ordering at the counter and hoping you get a seat, the hostess was friendly and great and asking some people to move the create a space. The food (pancakes and eggs took 25 minutes to arrive and was cold and incorrect (Swedish pancakes lathered in lingonberries I'd asked to be on the side). I flagged someone down to request a new order but they never arrived. After an hour I left. Back to the hotel where I probably should've had a timely predictable cheaper breakfast. Loved the host but the rest of the staff was not that customer service aware with me or the adjacent guests. Too bad. read more

The food was excellent. Had the corned beef hash. It was made from scratch and it had excellent flavor. Loved the eclectic atmosphere too!

Some of the best breakfast in Kansas City! The pancake burrito thing is amazing and the coffee is on point

Small but can seat a surprising amount of customers. Fun and vibrant atmposhere leaning heavily on local art. Friendly and attentive staff. I had a rosemary caramel latte and the pigs-in-a-blanket. Filling and tasty! My only critique is that some of the display cases and artworks are a little dusty. (Please go clean the display case with the old cake tray in it by the window) read more

Staff was super friendly. If we lived here we would be serious regulars. The Gluten-Free pancakes were the best I have ever had at a restaurant...and I am pancake picky. My husband had the regular pigs in a blanket and they were very good. Older quirky building has lots of atmosphere. Some reviews said food took a long time on weekends. We were there on a Monday morning and our food came super fast.. read more

Stopped by Succotash for brunch with a friend a few months ago. It's been a few years since my last visit and it's still just as busy. If memory serves, logistics are a bit different - you now order at the counter, seat yourself, and the food is delivered. We waited in line for a while but the food was delivered quickly after sitting down. There are a couple vegan options - I ordered the Vegan Sink which I enjoyed and was a generous enough portion size to need a to-go box. Overall, a great option for weekend brunch - especially if you're not a reservation person or forgot to make one elsewhere. read more

Meh! Just meh. Overpriced for sure. The waiter looked like he hadn't showered or changed clothes in at least 2 weeks. Restaurant went past quirky at some point and now just looks dirty and unkempt. The only reason I don't give it 1 star is because the food was good. Not great mind you, but good. Actually the more I read what I'm writing I'm not sure why I didn't check 2 stars. Lucky for them I'm too lazy to go back and change it. Kinda like people that don't shower or wash their clothes. read more

This place is super cute! My friends and I walked in randomly on a Saturday for breakfast and we had a group of 11 people. The staff was very nice to us and it was easy for us to find seating.

I don't have much else to say other than the service was awesome, the food was great, and the coffee was made perfectly!

Succotash is awesome! Such a fun quirky place to eat. The food is amazing and the staff is friendly. Highly recommend.

Succotash is the place to go with your friends from out of town on a Saturday morning. The atmosphere is fun and funky, and it makes it a great place to hang out. Since the first time I came, the layout has changed a little bit so the place feels a bit emptier and lacks some of the character it once had, but that's not so noticeable if you come at the morning breakfast hour when there are lots of people. Apart from ambiance, Succotash's food is good enough. The breakfast food is good and I do really like one or two of their sandwiches, but you mostly come here for the ambiance. Considering the coffee, the price point, and the experience, it's a good way to spend brunch. read more

This is a cool little place. We went for brunch on Sunday. We were not quite sure what to do when we arrived. You go along the wall and pay at the register and take a number to your table. I had a Benedict which was very good. It was on beer bread and they added an heirloom tomato. GF got Monti christo. Also very good. The tea has mint in it, which was a pleasant surprise. Staff very friendly. We'll go again for sure! read more

Succotash is great! Parking was a little complicated to find since it was mostly just on the street. Was able to walk in with a larger group on a Friday morning and grab a table outside.

Yep! Yes! Absolutely! I was at a conference at The Westin. I Yelped soul food breakfast, and Succotash popped up. .6 miles. I can walk. I set off on my uphill journey. This meal was worth every step. It's a corner store type of place. Kitchy. You stand in line to order your food, then grab a table and they bring it to you. The line was out of the door, but by the time I ordered, tables were clear for seating. I got the Swedish pancakes. They didn't warn me that they were using ligonberry jam, versus ligonberry preserve or simple syrup from actual ligonberries. Good flapjacks, though. The bacon and eggs were average. They advertised strawberry Chai, but had been out for a day. I had the coconut cold brew. Delicious! Service was great! read more
