City Market Coffee

I went there on a Saturday morning and it was very crowded but about what I expected. I ordered the 8 oz americano and it was pretty good. Above average! In addition to inside seating you can go out behind the shop and there is a little park area with a lot of benches.

I love City Market Coffee - it's located in the bustling KC River Market - especially busy on Saturdays in good weather - and the moment you near the entrance, you are flooded with a deep whiff of the richest smelling beans around....the baristas here created a great iced Americana with hazelnut for me and a Very Berry smoothie for my niece today. There is usually a line, but these folks are friendly and efficient, so it moves quickly. I did notice today that it was just a bit messier than I have seen it in the past... the creams/utensils/napkins counter needed bussing and wiped. We were there after the lunch rush so they must not have had time to clean it yet, hence, still 5 stars for coffee quality but 4 stars for overall cleanliness. If you have not been here, it really is a must. Order your coffee, then head up the spiral staircase to a cozy seating area from which you can watch the steady movement of happy customers... Oh, and when you're finished, don't just leave...there is a plethora of sights, sounds, aromas and activities beckoning you within just a few steps. Spend the day at the Market!

Hands down the best coffee in the city. Love the atmosphere, the location, the beans, and the pastries! Pro tip: Brewed Awakening is my favorite blend!

A little bit of a wait to place an order, even longer to pick up your stuff... They have an app with mobile ordering, prolly that's a better idea. A little pricey, but they have some unique flavor combinations and lots of options so over all I'd come again. Plus you can watch them grinding coffee beans which is cool... There's an old metal spiral staircase that leads to the upstairs seating that's really cool, too.
