It had been YEARS since I'd been to Homers when I walked in for a meeting earlier this week and…read morewhile not much had changed, I was really impressed and surprised with my cold brew. Some back story: I used to live in this neighborhood and before I lived here my husband (then boyfriend) lived here so I've spent some solid time in Old Overland Park. Before the Parisi opened in 2020 Homers was the only coffee option in this area so I'd ended up here for meetings, or to grab a cup to go many times. I'd say before this week I had pegged Homers as more of a three star spot. It was very hit or miss, and the vibes weren't hitting it for me. Just my personal preference. Speed up to Wednesday when Parisi was packed and I had a meeting on the calendar. My colleague suggested we move over to Homers since there were no tables at Parisi and I had a wonderful time here this week. My cold brew was on par, if not better than local competitors, the barista super friendly, and the space felt homey in a good way. I'll need a few more great visits to move up into 5 star territory but they are on the right path and I love that this return visit totally changed my mind about this local spot.

I searched on-line for "new coffee shops" while I was in midtown and saw that Brew Haha from…read moreOverland Park had opened a new location in The Crossroads. I was a bit confused when I arrived at the address because there was a church in that location, but I soon saw the signboard on the sidewalk wit Brew Haha's name. I cautiously entered and found they have set up a space in the church's lobby. I ordered my new favorite beverage - an iced Strawberry Matcha and enjoyed it on site. The space is pleasant with comfortable seating, tables for working and an outdoor sidewalk deck. Although I was never approached about my religious beliefs - or lack of...it just felt odd to be in an environment where religious signage is on display and pamphlets and artwork are prevalent on the walk to the restroom. I'm sure it's a nice perk to have a coffee shop on site for the congregation and a built in customer base for Brew Haha, but that environment is not my cup of tea or matcha.

This is a fairly new Dutch Bros location, and quality wise it is at par with all the other Dutch…read moreBros in the area. I love that they offer a good number of sugar free options (5-6 syrups) to add to their drinks, and when I first went to a Dutch Bros, I was very happy to see that they stay open late until 10 pm on weekdays and 11 pm on weekends. I have tried their cappuccinos and lattes with sugar free mocha and raspberry syrup, and I have loved the taste every time!!! Apart from the drinks, I felt this location had somewhat slow service when I went in on a Friday evening, even though there were not many cars in line. Other than that, the service was very cheerful and friendly, and the coffee they made was good. This place is a drive thru location and seemed clean from the inside. One less star is only for the wait time, but definitely give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

It is so awesome to be able to get a custom beverage and snack right in front of your office first thing in the morning. The convenience factor alone gives it 5 stars. That being said, even if it wasn't convenient I'd seek out this local gem. When I see the CoffeeCake truck around town I feel excitement build within me. Maybe it's the caffeine addiction talking but they serve up some of the best drinks to come out of a truck. I usually stick to a non-fat latte or a freshly brewed tea (hot or iced depending on the season) and my favorite coconut muffins! (For all you coconut haters, I'm glad you hate coconut because then there's still a muffin left for me by the time I get to the truck!) My coworkers favorites are the flat white, pablo, dirty chai, mocha, hot chocolate, and, of course, the infamous coffee cake. Service with a smile is an understatement. By your second or third visit the ladies on the truck will know you're face and order by heart and love you for it!

I remember the first time I saw a coffee truck in New York City's Union Square (Mud Truck) and I…read morethought, what an fantastic concept, considering at that time finding a non-corporate cup of coffee in Manhattan was pretty difficult unless you were willing to walk to the EV or WV. So, I am 100% behind this idea coming to fruition now in Kansas City, where it is admittedly a lot easier to find a non corporate cup of coffee, but try to do so in the evening, especially weekends after 3pm, and you're SOL. Or, perhaps you're having a busy workday and can't get in your car to locate some caffeine. Not to mention, when there are events around town like First Weekends in the Bottoms and you find yourself needing some little boost to get you in for the long haul or art walkin' and antique pickin' (yes, this was me on Saturday). Enter CoffeeCakeKC offering up some of the best roasted bean juice in town! What was it, 95 degrees on Saturday? Nothing like an iced Americano (with soy milk, yay!!) to brighten these languid, humid days and CCKC's is perfect in flavor (nutty, strong, not bitter). I was too hot for a baked good, but I look forward to this option in the future. They look/smell divine! Not to mention the fact the people behind this operation are extremely nice, so ordering up is a pleasure. Be sure to subscribe to their Twitter feed so you can stalk them for that which keeps your motor runnin'.

The staff was hustling with smiles on their faces. There was a short line, but it moved quickly! The coffee and hot cocoa prices were fantastic - $2/$3 each. The breads on the wall rack looked perfectly baked. Well leavened and nicely browned and crisp! I picked up the cinnamon focaccia, strawberry crumble bun, and blueberry crumble bun. Everything was delicious! They were perfectly baked with loads of filling in the buns. The cinnamon focaccia was even better than expected! It was buttery, crispy, and sweet. Can't wait to pop in again when I'm downtown!

I love supporting small businesses that put so much heart into what they do and give back to their community. Nancy is one of my favorite parts of each visit. Her passion shines through when she talks about sourcing their matcha, freshly roasted coffee, and homemade syrups and cold foams. You can really feel the care and attention in every drink, and my daughters say they have the best matcha in Kansas City! Theo is a wonderful barista and artist who makes every visit enjoyable. The whole team deserves recognition for creating such a welcoming atmosphere. They're all warm, friendly, and inviting. I also appreciate how Headrush partners with other local favorites, offering breakfast burritos from Hawg Jaw, fresh-baked treats from their in-house baker, and donuts from Mr. D's. It's a thoughtful way to bring the community together and support other small businesses. What makes Headrush even more special is its support for local artists, student artwork, vendors, and neighboring businesses. From the quality of the drinks to their involvement in the community, it's clear how much they care. Great coffee, wonderful people, and a small business that deserves our support.

Everything was so great we decided to get it again today but paid a visit inside. Iced vanilla latte still amazing and my boyfriend got the honey rush which was also good. Today we also tried their burritos (The Gobbler and The Chief). Only suggestion I can think of would be to have a hot sauce bottle or 2 at the grab-n-go bar. Would've made the burritos that much better for the spicy lovers. Staff was kind. Vibe of the inside is cute and lots to look at on their walls. Can buy the artwork off the wall if you'd like! Was given a punch card (buy 10 drinks, get 1 free), which we will definitely be using. We've tried so many local places in the area as residents of North KC, and this place definitely has the best iced coffees! Thank you! We will definitely be back.
