Excellent coffee, tea and croissants! Both my partner and I loved the iced americano and blood orange tea had nice flavors. I don’t drink alcohol, so it’s too bad I can’t review their beers, but the menu seemed interesting. Their customer … More service was great and the atmosphere is cozy and clean.
The outside parking was pretty easy.

I always love when coffee shops have space, and Rochester has a MASSIVE sitting area, especially for downtown KC! Tons of room to spread out if you're working solo or relaxing with a group. They also roast their beans right in front … More of you, so you get to watch the process and talk to the employees while it happens.
Really good coffee and tea menu, so anyone can find something they like. I had the espresso tonic, which was super refreshing. Unique seasonal drink offerings too!
I'll definitely be back to try some of their beer and cocktail selections!

Great spot for coffee and beer! They always have a solid selection of craft lattes, teas, and seasonal drinks as well as an outstanding tap list for beer! Lots of space for groups or a great spot for studying. Highly recommended for all … More times of the day
