I've been here every weekend for the past few months. The place has a very crisp, clean, and well lit feel to it with bursts of floral colors and plenty of cozy reading nooks. The owner has GREAT taste in books and decor, I love the use of natural light, it helps wake me up in the morning before the coffee has a chance to. Bisou isn't big, but still manages to feel spacious and almost private because of the layout. As for the coffee, best caffè americano I've ever had, and that's what I usually judge coffee shops by. The owner has some delicious, cute, and creative craft drinks, lattes, and teas on the menu. The chai is especially good, it's ginger-forward with a nice kick to it that other chais in the greater KC area lack. I'd definitely recommend getting a drink and a snack when you go, the pastries are divine and authentically French, The staff is always lovely. They're always keeping the place clean and they give great recommendations if you don't know what to order. Shout out to the pink haired girl who makes the signs and the decorative magnets, and the guy with curly hair and glasses who makes the best espresso! read more

The place is super cute! Definitely has a European vibe. However, the iced chai was way too sweet and the vegetable egg bake was soooo salty. Flavor was good, why so salty? Someone in the back needs to try the drinks and food again. Next time, I will try the regular coffee so that I can regulate the sweetness. read more

I finally got to stop in to this coffee shop today. They have a lovely aesthetic inside and outside. I especially love the outdoor look and the charming patio sets with umbrellas. Unfortunately, it was raining today so we sat inside. The first table that we chose was lopsided so we moved farther against the wall to a more stable table. The seating is in an L shape inside the café. There are some very close quartered tables with a chair and bench seating. There are also some wall attached high tops when you first walk in. They have attractive green bookshelves with a variety of books that look to be for purchase. When you walk into the next section, where you order, there are more seats to the right. The barista's were both nice and I ordered a brown sugar oat milk iced latte 16 ounce. I also ordered a brown sugar, vanilla, hot oat milk latte 16 ounce. The barista brought them out to us. The coffee is excellent, smooth, but bold and flavorful. They also have a wide variety of good music on their playlist, which was just the right sound level. This café is also particularly clean in all areas, which I appreciate. We would definitely go back, particularly for the coffee and to sit outside. read more

Bisou - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

Bisou is a pretty and classic coffee shop with simple but modern style interiors. It offers all day breakfast items, bakery items, and a basic coffee and tea along with alcoholic drinks menu. The location is not the best because it is right next to the freeway but once you step inside the small area it feels like you are somewhere fancy - EU style. The outdoor seating is lovely, with a white building behind it, black painted windows, and pretty pink peony plants all around, making it a nice and refreshing place to hangout. Inside, the space is small with four or five tables outer side of the shop and a bookshelf with various book genres. As you go in, you will find the coffee counter and some more tables for seating. I enjoyed my time here, looking at the decor and fine atmosphere. I had a cafe latte, a London Fog tea with vanilla syrup, and a slice of cinnamon bread. The drinks and bread tasted okay, but nothing special. The service was fast and the staff was very sweet and kind. I would still suggest this place to everyone more for its atmosphere than the food and non alcoholic drinks. This place is definitely adding charm to the area and I hope to see more businesses like this open nearby. I give it 4/5 just for the ambiance. read more

Bisou - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Kansas City, Missouri

This spot gives French cafe vibes! Outdoor and indoor seating. Lattes, drip and more types of coffee served. Milk alternatives and gf food options. Pastries, breakfast burritos and macarons at just a few of the food options. Seasonal coffee specials. I ordered the orange latte. It was like a dreamsicle. It was delicious. My only criticism was that my latte was warm. Not hot. I also ordered a drip coffee. Again. Warm. Not sure it this is a one time thing or if it is normal, but I'll come back and try it again. My friend ordered the matcha strawberry something. It was served iced. She said it was delicious. It's a really super cute spot on the Westside/crossroads. Street parking is challenging but there's a surface lot under the highway across the street. Service was efficient. read more

The good: LOVE the music! I was bopping to the 70s disco/funk for the 2+ hours I worked there. Good times! I also really liked my "Prada colada" espresso, which is one of their summer specials. The not so good: I asked if the yummy looking cardamom bun I saw was in fact, a cardamom bun. Yes! I was told. Alas, two bites confirmed for me that there was zero cardamom in the bun. When I took it back to the counter she told me that it was a cardamom bun, and asked if I wanted a box for it. I think a refund or a replacement treat would have been the right move, but really people- there was NO cardamom in the bun. I declined the box and the treat went to waste. It's just not what I was in the mood for. Also I told her that I'd prefer a glass for my drink since I'm avoiding single use plastic... she gave me a glass, and also a plastic straw. This place is upscale, I have to think they can do better than plastic straws here. I think this place has potential, I may try again some day. read more

What a vibe and hidden gem of KC! My friend and I went over the weekend for a Saturday brunch and absolutely loved the environment.

Thanks Bisou! read more

Obsessed with this place! Not only is it so cute and charming inside but the food and drinks are actually good. Every coffee I've had here has been good but I have to call out the orange chocolate latte. Holy crap so unique and delicious. It's reminiscent of those chocolate oranges that were popular years ago. The cinnamon roll was also one of the best I've tried in the city. Can't wait to try more things here! read more

Bisou is still a somewhat new face in a bustling coffee space in KC, but I really appreciate how they set themselves apart with a real Parisian atmosphere. When I stopped in for a coffee and pastry, while I knew sort of where Bisou was located, I was a little surprised to find it in an area near the entrance ramp to I-35 that is often overlooked. In some ways it's really nice to find that part of town being utilized, and in other ways - like how overflow parking leads you under the interstate, it's not so great, as even on a well lit summer morning parking my car there did give me a bit of a pause. All of that aside Bisou delivers on atmosphere, coffee, and pastries (provided by the iconic Blackhole). I really enjoyed my time there, and I'm sure I'll be back as it's a solid place to visit with folks or take a business meeting. Though, I would caution that the patio gets full sun in the morning so in the summer seating indoors would be at a premium. read more

Such a fun European inspired coffee shop with the best strawberry matcha I've had in the area! They have outdoor and indoor seating to meet up with friends, coworkers, and family. There were a few people working as they offer free WiFi also. The strawberry croissant was flaky and delicious! The matcha was made fresh and tasted great. They have a few different sweet and savory treats on the menu. Parking is located on the street or across the street under the bridge. read more

An adorable coffee shop off the beaten path in the westside neighborhood off southwest boulevard, located on Jefferson street tucked away from busy traffic. The outside is charming with pretty pink flowers and a black and white color scheme. The inside is even cuter with Parisian fashion elements everywhere and adorable bistro tables. The menu changes with the seasons and when I was there they were in between summer and fall so, of course, I opted for a fall pastry and a summer drink. The drink I chose sounded so unique and tasted even better than it read on the menu, the drinks are all themed after designers so, mine was aptly named the Prada Colada Latte and had notes of pineapple and coconut. The actual description was espresso, pineapple juice and coconut cream and it tasted like a tropical vacation, the sweet notes of pineapple and coconut balanced out the deep bitter espresso, I was utterly in shock how well these flavors worked together. The scone I went with was a pumpkin one that wasn't too sweet and instead took the earthy notes of pumpkin with a touch of warm spice, the best part of the scone was the texture that came from the pumpkin seeds (or pepitas) that were sprinkled throughout. There is no doubt in mind I will be back to Bisou and if you are a coffee shop connoisseur and haven't been here you are truly missing out! read more

On the Westside near La Bodega, a cafe sous le pont, it's got stylish Parisian artsy vibe including the music. You could definitely relax, work, take up a good book here. You wouldn't know it was there unless you sought it out! My croissant was flaky, crispy with the drizzle of chocolate.. heavenly! All pastries were made this morning! My family enjoyed their selection quiche which blended fillings capture your tastebuds and cheddar biscuits that was crisp yet moist and tender. Service was extremely personable, speedy and pleasant! Loved the personal touch of a seahorse on the hot chocolate too! read more

As others have accurately pointed out, the vibes are on point here. It's got a slightly upscale yet relaxed Parisian feel, and I feel like it adds another option to the Westside area. I really appreciate the effort on the big outdoor patio, but it just so happens to be positioned on a frontage road to I-35 highway, so it's quite loud if you choose to sit out there. Fortunately the inside has lots of seats in both a front and back room. I would call it cozy, but it was frigidly cold with A/C blasting on the day I was there. I got a simple drip coffee and had to pause at the $5.50 price tag for a cup of coffee, however it turned out to 1) taste incredible and 2) have a free refill offered when I asked, so it's ultimately worth it for a caffeine fiend like myself. They also have one of my favorites: Blackhole Bakery pastries. While I skipped them this time, I wouldn't pass them up if I were you. I work remote and like to bounce around to various spots to try them out, so the likelihood of me being a regular here is quite low. However, I enjoyed seeing what it's all about and love to have more quality options in town. read more

Kansas City's newest coffee shop: Bisou. And everyone is going ga-ga over the bougie, Euro-inspired interior design. Tucked into the Westside just off Southwest Blvd, near La Bodega and the Ferris Wheel. It sits below the owner's Beauty Salon, Second Story, and features: Coffee from Maps Coffee & Chocolate, Burrito Tortillas from San Antonio Market (Vegetarian options only), and pastries from Blackhole Bakery. With all the hype, I would recommend getting there early to be sure to snag a pastry. read more

They have a cute little patio in the front for warmer days and adequate seating inside. Parking was not too difficult to find either. We enjoyed a matcha latte and a cappuccino. Drinks were served with a smile and a hazelnut truffle. They also offer a small variety of pastries. Bisou will be on my regular rotation from here on! read more

Such a cute coffee shop. They had decorated the interior nicely for the holidays and in general it was well organized. The staff were friendly and the sugar cookie latte was delightful! The bacon and cheddar quiche was very good and I got one of the pastries, which I believe had cardamom and a honey glaze. I could have sat in the coffee shop all day. It is very quaint and has ample parking right across the street under the overpass. Looking at the other pastries they had, I would for sure go back to try one of them. They also have very good mochas. read more

CHARMING!! Saw on instagram that they just opened this week and it's lovely! I got here a little late in the afternoon (only open until 2), and they were out of some of their food options. Got a hazelnut latte with warmed up chocolate croissant. Delish. Environment: although I see quite a few laptop folks here, the seats are not cushioned, so maybe a shorter work spot but definitely a cute treat spot. It has a European flair with the black and white brick exterior and cafe chairs. If they had been playing French cafe music, I think my heart would sing, read more

Cute little spot for coffee and small (or big) bites! The outdoor patio looked like a very cute place to sit and enjoy a slow coffee and pain au chocolat, we visited at a time they were pretty busy, so we sat inside. It was a pleasant time inside or out, plenty of sunshine for indoors! The drinks had cute chic names, I got the Versace gold (which was a golden milk--turmeric--latte) and they had an option without espresso. Lots of yummy drink options, and pastries and breakfast food. My hubs had a breakfast burrito, it was substantial! I had a pain au chocolat and it was so flaky and full of chocolate. Our friends got a lavender latte (which was supposed to be a vanilla orange latte, but she chose to stick with the drink since it was tasty), Berry latte (however he said he couldn't taste berries in it at all), a quiche, biscuits and gravy, and cinnamon roll. All the food was highly enjoyed! Very cute little bookstore area where you can buy a book to enjoy with coffee as well. read more

A little slice of Europe in KC! This spot is tucked in away in a house making it feel like you're at a European cafe despite being so close to downtown and the highway. The outdoor patio area is ideal for sitting back and truly savoring the drinks and pastries in the sun. A great way to spend a morning enjoying the experience of coffee and pastries. We had the pan au chocolate and a lemon lavender shortbread, both incredible! Their pastry counter is gorgeous to look at and the taste lives up to the look. Loved the decor as well including the bookshelf wall. Overall a coffee place you want to come to spend time with friends/family or bring a book to sit back and truly enjoy the experience! read more

Bisou is a charismatic coffee shop located near the Crossroads district! As you arrive, you are presented with a beautiful patio area. The interior design of the coffee shop is curated in a very elegant, European way. The lady that took our order was very sweet and friendly as well. They offer a good selection of coffee and pastry items. We ordered the affogato. Highly recommend! The espresso itself was rich and smooth. It melted with the scoop of vanilla bean ice cream very well. Not only did it taste great, but it was also presented beautifully. Beyond the coffee menu, there are also a selection of pastries. We tried the pumpkin pastry. I enjoyed the light pumpkin and spice flavors. Will definitely come back for another visit to try their other coffee drinks. read more

I first attempted to visit Bisou in late May, but the packed patio and people waiting to enter caused me to keep on driving although it piqued my interest even more on what the buzz was all about. My visit today on Independence Day was perfect, no line and just a few customer at 11am. i understand the buzz - small and quaint space in an old west-side home, charming and simple european decor and vibe, indoor and outdoor seating, extremely welcoming baristas, great pastry selection and oh yes... a solid caffeinated beverage. I sipped my cappuccino on the patio for a brief spell before having to leave and finish it on the road and I shared my key-lime tart from Enchante' later in the day with my wife. Wonderful. With the "fancy" vibe, I was expecting maybe a bit of elitism at the counter, but not even slightly... best barista experience that I've had in recent memory. Zero complaints, see ya soon. read more

I loved visiting this super trendy coffee shop just on the edge of Westside. It's renovated to be a modern, bright and open space with lots of seating and a beautiful outdoor patio. The baristas were familiar faces from the KC coffee scene and very talented in their craft, from what I saw. I went with a classic (if boring) option of a drip coffee. I was also tempted to try one of the pastries from Black Hole Bakery. It looks like a savory toad in the hole or some sort of popover, but it really was a sweet treat. The "yolk" was a candied apricot and the green "egg white" was a pistachio filling. Honestly, one of the best pastries I've ever had in KC! I'm hooked. Tip: get there early! I came in around 8am and it was nice and quiet, but by 10am it was PACKED... and this was a Thursday! I can only imagine how busy the weekends must be. Check it out, but understand there may be a wait or limited seating depending on time of day. read more
