Apogee was a great find. There is a lot of room inside and it's super clean. The service was great and I got my order in fast. I got my coffee to go, and it was sooooo good. I think it was the best coffee I've found in the area. My latte was smooth and full of flavor. I'm excited to get back and try another!!! Great service, great coffee! read more

Best cold brew I've had in quite some time. The barista was cheerful and knowledgeable... I was grateful for the recommendation, because this drink was seriously good! Apogee shares a building with ROKC rock climbing so it's a bit off the beaten path of a typical coffee shop vibe, but with cold brew this good I doubt you'll care. read more

Apogee - Kyoto cold brew. - Pizza Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

A clean and welcoming place that offers everything from beer to drinks and coffee as well as some Lucky Elixir kombucha! The staff greeted me with warmth and made me feel welcome. This cute little gem is hidden next to ROKC right down the road from the Mahaffie historical site. I ordered a personal supreme pizza and it was fresh and tasty. The only reason they are not getting all the stars is I want to try more of the menu first. read more

Such a fun spot inside of ROKC in case you're in the mood to do a little rock climbing! Stopped in on a quiet Wednesday morning (conveniently located next to the DMV). Ample parking and seating. Free wifi- they also serve pastries and hot food dishes. Some pastries made in house, others are Mr D's and Skratch Bakery. I really enjoyed my coffee option- they have great creative flavors! Only downfall was no skim milk, but I know it's not as popular :) The barista was very friendly and familiar with their menu. read more

Great atmosphere, great hours, not common to have a coffee shop blended into a restaurant to be open until 9pm. Got my coffee fix as am in Olathe for 7 nights on a love story (long story) mission to give moral support to my boyfriend who is going through a lot, to the point of him asking 3 weeks back for time off from us even after a wonderful year together. Am digressing but good to tell of my disposition when I came to Apogee looking for a good vanilla latte. The staff was very friendly and walked the latte to hand to me, service a 5 for sure. Ambiance is a 4, different folks come for different reasons - mingling, pizza late night, parents waiting for their kids, then an adjacent open area leading to the sports (?) complex next door that had rock climbing apparatus. Semi chaotic ambiance, can't even pinpoint whether it's touristy or divey or romantic!?? Thank you Kansas for your warm welcome, neat business concept. read more

Super fun coffee shop tucked alongside a climbing gym. This makes for a really interesting mix of people hanging out - comfortable, casual and relaxed. My chai latte was good, but I have an issue with coffee shops that only offer whole milk and alternative milks. I really prefer skim or another low-fat traditional milk, but that wasn't an option. read more

The coffee shop is attached to the rock climbing gym, people do walk around barefoot in the portions of the coffee shop area. Coffee itself was good, not bad not great. Impressed with the vegan breakfast burrito! Plenty of seating, coffee came out quick, overall average experience Vegan friendly read more

The Yelpers were on point again. This is a solid spot. I knew I'd love it when I saw the sign that said "coffee pizza beer!" All my favorite things in one spot. Yes, please. It's a cool vibe on the inside. It's next door to a RoKC which probably gets a good corn from there. They have cocktails, food, breakfast, snacks, milk alternatives and gf and veggie options Today I got a latte with oat milk and whiskey caramel syrup. It was good. Got some protein bites. Those were really good. The pizza looked delish. Will have to try on my next visit. Service was prompt and friendly. If you live in Olathe this is a must stop. read more

Stopped here for the first time one morning with some friends! When I walked in, most sitting areas were full, so it must be a popular spot! I ordered a green smoothie at the counter, and it was even brought out to me so I didn't have to awkwardly stand and wait. The vibe is small, cozy, and like a cool place to hang out! I'm interested to come back and try the pizza, and maybe some craft beer! It's a good pit stop for seeing friends or hanging out after a fun day at ROKC! read more

Just love this place! Geoff (I think he spells it that way) and Brandon working behind the bar. Very accommodating... especially with my wife's quirks. Small place surrounded by RoKC. Great food. Excellent service!!! Might have to become regulars!!! Thanks, guys!!! read more

I LOVE Apogee. West Olathe was in desperate need of a place like this - we could use 3 more things like it. Apogee is the only coffee place in the area with what I consider "good vibes." I love the staff - especially Mallory, who is a ray of sunshine. Lots of friendly clientele, too. It is fun that it is connected to the rock climbing gym, so there are a lot of families, young people, etc. in and out all day. Apogee is more than coffee - it actually is a full restaurant, coffee shop, and full bar. I go to Apogee almost weekly during my work day to work for a couple of hours. It is the perfect working atmosphere if you like a little ambient noise in a comfortable environment. I always feel welcome here. The food is good - although it is a small menu. It's basically pizza and a few sandwiches. I do wish they had a bit more. My go to is the lunch special, which is a small personal pizza and side salad. If I'm there in the morning, I get their breakfast burrito, which is also very good. My one piece of constructive feedback - I think it'd be worth putting a menu board up above the bar. People hate QR code menus, and it is confusing to newcomers to not see a menu. Plus, it'd be cute! Definitely give Apogee a try. I waited longer than I otherwise would've because I thought it was going to be like a climbing gym snack bar, but it is much more than that. They sometimes do events and activities as well, such as trivia night. So glad to have Apogee here in Olathe read more

Traveling through Kansas and looking for a great climbing place and stopped at ROKC. Well they have this pizza place/bar Apogee in side with outside seating. The team that works here has always been helpful and attentive to the customers from watching. Has sitting inside and a little four table gated porch area that when the weather is nice just brings an even better experience. Started with getting the peanut butter balls and homemade pop tarts (made locally) when started coming here, very tasty and great snack as the team has mentioned to help with after workout or quick little breakfast. Tried the baked chicken wings this past week and the flavor was on point but today the pizza was wow... The Hawaiian pizza had great flavor and the pineapple is not basic pineapple and with the bacon adds extra flavor especially if you enjoy bacon then the candies jalapeños just wow. Be awesome if they could deliver to Las Vegas. read more

Apogee - Hawaiian pizza - Pizza Near Me - Olathe, Kansas

We were in the area and decided to stop in and get a beverage based on the good reviews. We were disappointed to say the least. We went to the front counter and were behind another customer and when he left, the barista just walked off and never said a word. She was apparently ending her shift but it would have been nice to tell the next customers that. So after the other barista finished making a beverage for the previous customer he walked over and was not welcoming or friendly either. When I asked about what types of syrups they had for lattes and any choice of sugar free, he answered with a somewhat snarky reply about how they don't do artificial and they only had lavender/honey or vanilla bean. That's fine but the attitude didn't have to come with it and most coffee shops have syrups/flavorings so it's not unusual to ask! Quite a few of the empty tables needed to be cleaned as well. The trash was full and the cushioned chairs were stained in the next room. So the vibe was not good and the service was rude. The only good thing was the coffee was good and the tea. But we won't be coming back based on the experience which is important as well. read more

Great coffee adjacent to rock climbing gym. Not ideal atmosphere for long periods of work/relaxing with friends but the best local spot in Olathe by a mile. Owned by one of the former Quay coffee owners in downtown KC read more

For all you rock climbing enthusiasts, you won't have to go far to find great refreshments and food. You can visit RoKC to scale the tall wall and then stop into Apogee without even leaving the building. Lots of places are doing great pizza and maybe craft beer, but not every place is doing very well at both. Throw in the fact that Apogee is creating hand-crafted cocktails and kegging them up, and your afternoon or evening has all the makings of enjoyment. Drew was working the front end of the house during our visit, and he could not have been more welcoming and accommodating. I opted for an Irish Feather, Apogee's take on a horsefeather, and it was a spectacular cocktail. I talked to my wife into trying the Paloma, which is a grapefruit margarita that is finished with smoked mescal. The drink was a touch powerful (it was the smoke) for her tastes, so Drew, everpresent, hooked her up with a Paloma sans the smoke and she was ever so happy. The pizza was just right, crust holds the toppings, sauce to the edges, and cooked all the way through. That pizza had to weight three pounds, and two slices is ample for most appetites! It was more than enough to share and then split with a to-go box. Pro tip: Apogee's pizza is really good the next day, and anyone who went to college knows that next-day pizza varies greatly. Do your eats and dranks pre-climb or post, or just stop in for a beer (the local menu is well-represented) or coffee in the working adult hours. Apogee, by the very definition of the word, is 'the highest point in the development of something', and this place is *really* close to that pinnacle. read more

Really tasty, super interesting little coffee shop attached to a rock climbing gym! I don't do much climbing myself but I absolutely need to bring my sister here! I love the vibes and the coffee is really solid and reasonably priced. It's definitely getting out of hand when you have to pay $10 with tip for a dang latte. I had a lemon honey lavender latte and the flavor was subtle and light in the best way - it's great in iced form with oat milk. I want to come back to try the food, based on these other reviews! This place is an oasis in the desert for sure. read more

Second time in and as a customer I felt ignored, undervalued, and left frustrated without finishing one beer and leaving ZERO tip (which I literally never do). The customer service was non-existent. The young gal behind the bar was definitely capitalizing on her looks with the older gentlemen at the bar, who were obviously regulars by the rapport between them and the staff. The menu is small and unappealing and the beer selection even smaller. Their regulars can keep enjoying because I highly doubt they will be able to retain any new clientele. Tipping from me- typically between 20%-100% or my total bill. You never know who you are serving, lesson- treat every person that comes in front of you as a valuable guest! read more

Really lovely little spot, conveniently right next to my dogs daycare! They have tons of draft beers, many a whiskey, and I hear also coffee??? Did a take out order of their goat cheese and arugula, and added some sausage. I came in a little early to scope the place out, and was met with really hospitable and apologetic wait staff because my pizza wasn't ready, despite the fact that I arrived 5 minutes earlier than what the order told me to do! Was offered something to drink immediately. Everyone who was dining in seemed to enjoy their food. I did notice that their menu in the establishment was quite bigger than the online menu! Really flavorful and sweet sauce, good amount of toppings. We loved that the crust came seasoned, so it was also yummy to eat! read more

This is SO GOOD. The pizza is to die for. The place is cute and cozy and the best part is it's attached to ROKC so you can sweat like nobodys business for a few hours then roll in here and getcha some yummy pizza. The pizza crust is super buttery and delicious. We went with two other couples and just split 3 pizzas. Ended up with a supreme pizza, pepperoni Anddd a white sauce pizza. All were absolutely fantastic!!! Service was on point. Food came out fast. We will definitely stop back in - even if it's just for food. read more

Stopped in last Saturday for lunch. First time at this fine spot. My group had a large all meat pizza and small goat cheese pizza. The all meat was phenomenal with what I would consider a medium crust. Crust and toppings very tasty. The goat cheese was average. We didn't order any coffee or beer but it looked like they had a bunch of nice options along with homemade pastries. I will return to enjoy the pizza again. Reasonable prices. Restaurant is in between a rock climbing place and retail clothing store. read more

I ordered the Italian even though it doest come in a side size and my husband ordered the ceasar. Both were so good + packed with so much flavor. For pizza, we ordered the goat cheese and arugula pizza but we added pepperoni to it. The sauce is so dang good here. We can't wait to come back! read more

There pizza was good. It was a nice place to catch up with a friend. The service was good too.

This place is a hidden gem. Great food and drinks. Haven't had the water or the coffee. But the alcohol drinks are amazing. The old fashion is spot on 8.7 out of 10. The whiskey selection is amazing. The pizza and wings are fantastic. Salad was a bonus. The water looks wet but the whiskey is amazing. Go check Cory and Drew out. They know what they are doing. Great place and great people. Don't ask for the water!! Go Pack Go!!! read more

A great small business doing BIG things in Olathe and the metro area. ApogeeKC has top quality pizza, top rated coffee, and great staff. To see the work that goes into the different coffee drinks and the food, I would put them 2nd to none. I would encourage all locals and newcomers to check this place out. Sadly, for the 1 star reviewers, I wish those folks actually understood what work and love it takes to run a small business and operate through times like Covid. For those reviewers, I'd recommend just shopping online at Amazon and eating at chain restaurants. To them, your support and reviews actually don't matter. Keep up the good work Apogee. Cheers to you and your staff. read more

Best kept secret in Olathe right now. Sounds like they had the bad timing of opening right at the start of Covid. So glad they survived it! Top to bottom the menu is fantastic. There's something for everyone: coffee, pizza, breakfast, cocktails, huge whiskey selection and lots of top craft beers to choose from. I came for early dinner and had the KC BBQ Pizza, it was outstanding! I was so surprised. One of those "eat every bite" type pizzas with amazing crust. Just enough spice and sweet on the sauce. 7" was getting your bang for your buck. Nice indoor and outdoor seating options. I was lucky enough to be here on a nice spring day and they opened the garage door up. I will be back for sure and enjoy it before the secret gets out and I can't find a spot to sit! read more

Delicious coffee and very friendly service. Cool atmosphere. Highly recommend trying this place out. I will definitely be back.

Great spot in an unassuming area. Located inside of ROKC, apogee has coffee, cocktails, an extensive tap list (for the size of the place), and some good eats (I've tried the pizza thus far). Check their social media for events like whiskey tastings. As they are located near several schools, just wish they opened a tad earlier and started happy hour right after school instead of at 4pm. read more

I was super impressed to find pizza this far into the 'burbs. Got the goat cheese & arugula pie and was delighted with it all... The sauce, the CRUST! Got to meet the owner who was very nice. Love that they're in a climbing gym. It really is one of the best pies I've had in KC! read more

Cute little bar I'm not sure if I'd call it a Kraft bar but it's pretty good and has a good selection. Bartender was very nice.

I CANNOT geek out about this place enough. Staff is so stinking friendly, knowledgeable, quick and super patient with my first-time-visitor self. I had the Aztec Mocha latte, hot. And a caramel cinnamon roll. Both were amazing. The texture of the pastry was a little different than I expected, but 0 complaints here! Highly recommend. Will be back for lunch! read more

What a fun concept. Love to stop by for artisan coffee or a cocktail. Great food and a climb too.

The food was good to say the least. It's just pizza and salad, but they have a variety of different pizzas, so that is nice! It's an order at then counter & they bring it to your table type of service. The ambiance of the little restaurant is cute, but it's attached to a rock wall company which is interesting. read more

My daughter and I went here for the first time tonight, and it was Toppling Goliath night, which meant it was packed. The beers were great, and we got a large pepperoni pizza, which was really good.

YES! This is the place that Johnson County has needed for quite some time! Cory Stipp, the owner of what was THE purveyor of coffee in Kansas City's River Market, took his concept out south and expanded it, adding batch made craft cocktails, draft beer and pizza to his repertoire. Finally, JoCo has an establishment that is GOOD, isn't a chain and isn't super pretentious. The KC BBQ Chicken Pizza we had was to die for. I think I can still taste it. Our cocktails were creative and outstanding, as was the vibe at Apogee. I can't wait to return! read more
