    Snacks to go
    Alek H.

    Came here with some friends. It was such a wonderful and warm place to visit. I'm Jewish and my heart is breaking about what is going on everywhere in the Middle East whether it's happening to Muslim people or Jewish people, the innocent people are suffering because of the governments. It is nice to come to a place like this that celebrates Palestinian people and feeds the community while celebrating and enjoying a peaceful meal. Everything was absolutely delicious and there were plenty of options for us, meat-lovers, and our vegan friend. We took some dessert all the way to California because it was so delicious. I strongly recommended it.

    Chicken Shawarma Combo

    The food was good. The staff were super friendly. The restaurant is small but cute. The bakery was closed so it had more seating for those that didn't have a seat in the restaurant. We ordered a Shawarma wrap combo and a falafel wrap. The fries were very flavorful. The lemonades were delicious! We wanted pita but they were out. I loved the vibe and music in the background.

    Amazing food and friendly service. Came on a Sunday afternoon around 1 and having never been there had a lot of questions all of which were patiently answered. We ended up sharing a kebab wrap with added garlic sauce and a hummus plate with falafel. Everything was absolutely delicious. No notes! It was busy and it's a small place but we found a seat in the adjacent bakery area.

    I do not eat hummus a lot but this place had a bowl that was for me if you will. I tend to be picky with eating foods that are not traditional cuisine and not because they are non traditional but because I have favorite things. Hummus is one of those rare favorites. Me and my wife shared a fruit drink and I'm big on those. I think it was a vanilla pineapple lemonade. The pantry gave the same vibe a coffee shop would but more socially interactive.

    Got out the house and went on a friend date with Amelia! I have been DREAMING of coming here and I'm glad I did. I don't even remember what I got but it was hummus and it was delicious. The people are so kind and welcoming! Thank you!

    Baba's Pantry in Brookside is a whole vibe. The moment you walk in it feels like stepping into someone's family kitchen. The space is colorful, cozy, and welcoming, and the staff greet you like they've known you forever. The food is incredible. I had the chicken shawarma wrap and fries, plus the hummus bowl topped with juicy, spiced chicken. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful, with just the right balance of tangy pickles, creamy tahini, and herbs. The falafel was crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, not dry at all. Definitely some of the best falafel I've had in Kansas City. Do not skip the lemonade. They switch up the flavors daily and both the raspberry and pomegranate were perfectly tart and refreshing without being overly sweet. It pairs beautifully with all the rich, savory flavors on the menu. Baba's Pantry is more than just a spot to eat. It's a place filled with culture, community, and pride. You can tell every detail is intentional, from the food to the décor to the "Everyone Welcome" sign on the window. This is the kind of small business that makes Kansas City special. Highly recommend for lunch, takeout, or just hanging on the patio with good food and good vibes.

    The atmosphere and ambiance is amazing. The food is out of this world! They worked quickly and got our food to us in a few minutes! If you haven't tried Baba's then you need to! They have so many options, cafe and bakery! Run, don't walk to Baba's Pantry!

    I've had an eye on this restaurant to visit for a while, but somehow I was craving for Middle East in food. We made a 30 minute drive to this place and absolutely do not regret it. First things first this place is on the main road, but there is a US Bank parking on the side of the restaurant because there's no parking in front of the restaurant An absolutely amazing artistic place bright colors. Everything in house made the family is running this restaurant you would see baba making sure every customer leaves happily there's plenty of snacks, sauces, and appetizers along with some desserts are kept in front of you to pick up. Their menu is extremely simple yet very special and different compared to anywhere I've had the similar food We got baba ghanoush trust me. This was having a very different touch of their in-house recipe. We did give us a hint of spiciness along with all the other flavors. It was it was delicious. The pita bread was warm and soft. We got cardamom lemon tea can complain on that. We got Baba falafel Richard stuffed onions with Somac something that I would go back again for the chicken Shawarma was tender juicy chicken with everything that you can ask for what a beautiful place there were people standing in queue, even though there was no seating just to pick up the food and go. I could see why they come back here often go visit this place if you're around this Neighbourhood.

    Hummus platter
    MonCherie

    The staff here make it so easy to support this restaurant, I always get the hummus with the chicken on top. The flavors are so pungent and mesh together so beautifully the moment I crave Babba's pantry I go and get it.

    It's a cute little place where you order at the counter. We ordered gyro wraps and baba ghanoush. The baba ghanoush was smoky and flavorful. The pita was fresh and soft. The gyros were packed full of meat and toppings. I like that it came cut so it was easier to handle. It became very busy while we were there but the tables turned over quickly.

    Pistachio olive oil cake

    Baba's Pantry is a find! Local and family owned restaurant, serving Palestinian food. We had the falafel and hummus platter- hummus was creamy and the falafel was perfectly cooked. We also had the falafel pita, chicken shawarma, and beef pita sandwiches. All so tasty and perfect tang from the pickled veggies. Couldn't leave without trying the pistachio olive oil cake which was so moist and not too sweet. Final review: 5/5 stars, great stop for lunch and also take away

    Baba's Pantry has amazing authentic cuisines. They make even their lemonade in house free from additives and a rotation of new flavors everyday. The fries are absolutely delicious. The service is great and the decor displays their culture nicely.

    pistachio bun, brownie and date cake

    I LOVE baba's pantry. Their lemonades are always so fresh and so tasty, and the portions are really good for what you are getting. The staff is always so friendly and it is always a pleasure going to support them; their food and baked goods are amazing! and can we talk about the gorgeous colors they use for their building?! Top baked goods I have tried and enjoy: -Pistachio Bun: 10000/10 it's soft, creamy, sweet but also savory i wish i could buy a box of these! -Date Cake: 10/10 its sweet, you get the date taste but also the fluffiness of the cake and its to die for! -Brownie: 8/10 - personally it had too much of the espresso taste and would have liked to taste the chocolate a little more BUT that is just a personal preference, it was still VERY good and if you like a bold coffee flavor this will most likely be a new favorite for you! I will certainly visit again - if it was closer I'd be a regular!

    Returned to one of our KC favorites for Mediterranean food last night and were not disappointed!…read moreCheerful and helpful server steered me towards the rose water lemonade and it was delicious, a good start! Their hummus is a dream, and my Sumac chicken was yummy, but the biggest hit for me was the side salad, perfectly fresh and crisp lettuces and veg and loved the dressing! One of the best green salads I've had in any restaurant in KC.

    I had ordered catering from Aladdin Cafe for a group of friends before, so I knew they were great…read more I wanted to take my wife here. We had an engagement right down the street so this was the perfect time. We had the grape leaves, hummus, tabouli and kifta plate. It was all great! We both agreed the hummus is among the best we've ever had. We prefer it to be tahini heavy (rather than garlic or spices) and this one is. It's creamy and perfect. Beautifully presented! The tabouli was HUGE! I wish they had a half portion. It was too much for 2 of us. But absolutely delicious! The grape leaves were good, but nothing special. The kifta plate was excellent!! Wonderful ground beef mixture and just what one expects with this classic dish. Steamed vegetables and rice with a mousses on top were a perfect complement to the beef. Service was quick and efficient. Glad we went early as the neighborhood gem fills up quickly on a Friday night. 5 stars. We will return and try more of the extensive menu.
