The lattes were quite good, the space itself an oasis of calm, the service friendly, speedy and professional. We like our lattes, like our daily lives, without ice. Scout Coffee is highly recommend from us!

**I have been to Scout Coffee so many times, I can't believe I have never reviewed it!! Weird**…read more I am a bit of a (self-prescribed) coffee snob. I don't want to drink any other coffee but really, really good craft coffee. If I drink anything else (from a fast food place, or Starbucks, or a Keurig), I will only do so if it's the only option and only if there is heavy whipping cream available. Scout Coffee is my saving grace while I am in Blue Springs. Their coffee is excellent, as good as some big dogs (like Onyx Coffee, Black and White, Intelligentsia, or Counter Culture). Great flavors. Great pour over options. Wonderful seasonal drinks that are not too sweet (although I wish they used better syrup, like Pink House Alchemy). They also serve some bakery items (limited) that are very good! I love their cinnamon sugar posh tart. The atmosphere of the shop is eclectic but comfy. Weird decorations, but it works. In the warmer days, the front porch is a great place to sit and visit with friends, or read a good book. They have good merch options and sell their coffee by both the bag and the bucket. All in all: excellent coffee. Worth the drive if you are 20-30mins nearby in KC. Oh, and the service is excellent! So friendly. So helpful.

This review is for the experience I had yesterday during my quick trip to the mall…read more This little, new coffee place was in the old business spot where Teavana used to be for years at the Independence Center. Though it's been a good handful of years since then I still miss Teavana dearly. Giraffe Coffee was a fun experience and Angel, the lovely person working the shop was such a delight. Very sweet and engaging. ^__^ She prepared my small frozen blended coffee, which I had with almond milk & hazelnut syrup. Honestly, the coffee was WAY too sweet for my personal preference, but of course I still had a nice time there. The boost of energy was why I did it! It certainly provided that and a mild tummy ache afterward lol.. Next time I'll have to try one of their teas! My only reason for swinging by the mall as soon as I got off work was to do some product exchanges at another business there, which was successful. Never hurts trying someth'n new and all! Again, next time I'm trying one of their teas. It's still really weird for me knowing Teavana isn't there anymore, and honestly I don't think I'll ever be "used" to it. But I'll forever associate that business spot with them as time passes.

I'm from out of state and the city I live in is abundant with Teahouse's since we have a huge Asian…read morepopulation. I visited here because they were on of the few Tea houses in the city. On top of that, not many tea houses are open late and this one was. It was kind of in a hard to find location... Even though it's on the street front, the sign isn't very big and it wasn't lit well. I parked in front, but then I realized you're not supposed to. There's actually parking in the back, but the area didn't look super safe, so I just parked really quick and went in for a drink to go. The place was cute and very small. I guess they really love cats because they have cats on the wall, cat stickers, cat logo, cat trinkets for sale. The lady who was there was super helpful and friendly, and she helped me go through the menu, but I stuck to my traditional milk tea with cheese foam. I don't know if people in this little town understand how delicious cheese foam is with milk tea... But if you haven't tried it, please do. The order took a little longer than normal, despite how was the only customer there, but I wasn't in a hurry The drink came in a really cute reasonable cup that I ended up keeping to reuse. I will say that compared to other keys in my local city where I can get very good quality tea. This would be a three on that scale one to five. However, for this smaller town that doesn't have a lot of options, I am giving it a 4. The tea flavor isn't quite as strong as I like it, but perhaps this is more of a Caucasian /American area, they may be catering to the local preference and taste. Overall, the place was cute and clean and the service was really friendly. I would come back and try again again, but maybe a different drink that's a little bit stronger than flavor.

When taking my order this time, the person did not even know what it was which means their staff is very improperly trained, and then the person making it did not know how to make it correctly. But yet a person inside after realizing me as the customer has corrected, the person who is handing me the drink then tells me to chill out. He's got it covered. Please realize without me speaking up. I would've drove off yet again from this Dutch Brothers with an incomplete order because they do not know how to train properly. Will definitely be going to a different Dutch Brothers didn't ruin the drink for me. Just the location.

I enjoyed all of them as they were highly flavorful and had great texture. I'm always patient while restaurants work out kinks and you should be too!

I enjoyed the musician despite the large crowd and the challenge of hearing him over the many conversations. Eventually, the crowd thinned out, and I was able to better enjoy the music. Overall, it's a nice brewery.
