Located in the old MCM building that formerly was the home of the old Tastee Freeze, it already started out with a fun atmosphere. And the owners did a nice job of making it even more welcoming. I even enjoyed the barstool, which looked to be about 75 lbs but actually was more like 10. As my Corgi body got up, that thing shot out from underneath me like a butt mounted, spring loaded rocket and took off across the dining room. Many nice people asked if I was OK, and I assured them that I was only dealing with the pain of embarrassment. I like to think that my exploits entertain the masses :) As for the coffee, it was excellent. Much better than the overheated fare at Charbux. The pastries were fresh, tasty, and some of the best I've ever had at a coffeehouse. The young baristas that work there are very nice, which is refreshing. The owner popped in while we were there and it's obvious he's detail oriented. Expect a line, but know that it's worth it.

Definitely would recommend checking it out if you want to visit a cozy cafe.

Definitely one of those coffee shops that feels like a true community spot.

Tall Trellis is an awesome family friendly brewery. They're frequently busy but they have a large…read morespace and a big parking lot. They have a large patio area where dogs and kids can play and run around (leased dogs, not the kids ). They have a stage outside and lots of individual seating and picnic tables. They have one of the best brewery patios in KC. The indoor space is also fairly large and they do have a room that can be rented for private events. And this year, they added an outdoor tent so you don't have to freeze but can still be outside. They have a few TVs for sports ball watching. Service is always fanatic. Despite being busy, they're always clean. They do offer food-tacos, pizzas, kids menu. I've not tried any but I always see people ordering so it must be pretty good. It's a brewery so obviously they have beer, but they also have nonalcoholic beverages and wine. I stick to the beer. My favorites are alway the stouts. They remind me of simpler old school stouts that aren't sweet and heavy. They have live music and other events so make sure to follow their social media and definitely check them out!

I love all the outdoor seating and it's the perfect spot for friends and families to hang out. The Whipped Feta Skillet was AMAZING! I also really like the flatbread.

The coffee bar is open separate hours other than just on Sundays, but on Sundays, you could attend a church service and get your coffee. Win/win! I love the space, with its high ceilings, comfortable seating, and robust Wi-Fi, making it a wonderful place to work or just get together. And oh yeah, the coffee. Foundry makes a great regular roast and works hard to make outstanding artisanal coffee drinks. Even a hot cup of cocoa is done just right and pairs spectacularly with many of their pastry offerings. Another perk is Foundry's proximity to the pond and walking paths at Sar-Ko Park. I have been known to get my coffee and then walk across the parking lot to one of the benches in front of the pond, just a serene experience watching the ducks on pleasant mornings. I highly recommend a piece of their cinnamon coffee cake to accompany your coffee. Pro tip: get it warmed up. Prices are standard for similar fare elsewhere but the value is in the friendly service and welcoming space. There is a really solid kids' play area (with an age limit) giving families with littles a great option. Enjoy the park scene or just unwind in their space or on their patio and enjoy Foundry!

But there are a lot of school age kids hanging out playing card games and racing around the parking lot. This would be a good place to grab a drink and walk around the lake or if you had kids to let them socialize with others while you worked. There is a place just off the main shop area for 5 and under kids room as well.

Everything is baked fresh in-house, and you can absolutely taste the difference. The pastry case is dangerous in the best way -- from rich, chocolate-covered eclairs to pillowy cinnamon rolls with generous icing. It's the kind of place where you go in for coffee and leave with a box "for later." Beyond the sweets, their breakfast sandwiches are fantastic -- fresh, satisfying, and perfect for starting the day right. And speaking of starting the day right, the coffee is solid and served in real mugs if you're planning to linger (which you'll want to). There's plenty of cozy window seating, making it a great spot for a relaxed morning meeting, catching up with a friend, or simply enjoying a quiet moment with something delicious. The staff is genuinely friendly and adds to the welcoming neighborhood feel.

We went in for lunch, but you need to know that **there's only one hot menu item served per day on a rotating schedule.** so as we would say to our kids... "You get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" HAHA. But you won't want to cry, because the dish we tried was absolutely delicious! Also, they have a very robust pastry case - some savory and some sweet. Not to mention their extensive grocery options! Spices, baking mixes, frozen foods, Brazilian condiments, cosmetics, even a small produce section and loads of cases of Guaraná!! (the classic Brazilian soda, a cross between apple and ginger ale IMO.) Just for context, our main dish was $15 and the delicious hamburger was $7. Check Geo's out! The man at the café was friendly, helpful and kind!

Since I do not live in Kansas City, my boyfriend drove about 3 hours the day before so I could attend the interview. In addition, I had to miss a day of work at my university job, which caused me to lose a day's worth of pay. However, when I arrived at the location, the owner simply did not show up for the interview. He also did not respond to my messages or even had the consideration to apologize for what happened. I was extremely upset and disappointed with the situation, especially because of the time spent traveling, the money spent on gas, and the loss of my workday. As of today, May 14th, I still have not received any response or even a simple apology. If this is how a potential employee is treated before even being hired, it says a lot about how this business values people.
