A lovely store in Overland Park with a great selection of teacher resources and homeschool…read morematerials. I relied mainly on Mardel's for my homeschool curriculum while teaching my 3 children through all grades. the curriculum selection has gotten better over time and now features a well selected variety of matetial from many respected but lesser known publishers. the staff is friendly and the store is very well managed. I just bought a children's Bible for my grandson and had it imprinted with his name. a very fine store that I've shopped in for around twenty year.

St. Christopher led me to this store. I have a dear friend who travels a great deal and I needed a…read morebirthday present for him. I decided a St. Christopher medal was the perfect gift but I was not sure where to go for this item. I did not want to do the expensive jewelry store route. I love my friend but there is a price, right? lol. I figured that Mardel would have this item and I was right. They had a variety of St. Christopher medals and I found exactly what I needed. I also found a box and wrapping paper. I did not find a card because the cards were nice but had a religious theme. I was wanting more a little more celebratory and not so much churchy, if that makes sense. I was very pleased that I could find all my purchases easily and with little commotion. I hate being in stores and not finding what I need. That was not the problem here. They seemed to have a wide variety of products and interesting items. I actually enjoyed browsing a bit and was grateful I had come to Mardels. Everything was easy. Parking was close by and there were plenty of spaces. The items in the store were easy to find and attractively displayed. The prices were very reasonable and they have coupons. This store is the religious version of Hobby Lobby so they have the standard 40% coupons plus others. Very nice and personable store. I am sure you will enjoy shopping here and finding that perfect gift.

There are so many amazing coffee shops in the kansas city area, and every time I try a new one it…read morebecomes my favorite. This one was no exception, but I do believe it might remain the reigning champion. First of all it is a coffee shop in the basement of a church, and its name implies that it is religious. So the reviews that act surprised or give lower ratings for that reason are silly gooses. The ambiance is outstanding! It is a whole vibe. You are surrounded by books, some of the tables have pew seating, there is a kids area, they sell T shirts cheap ($7) and used books at an amazing deal. New books are priced as marked with regular retail pricing. I was shocked at the number if new hooks they had. The crowning jewel for me was they have natural house made (or local bought) syrups so you are not getting a run of the mill commercially based anything. I expected that to limit their menu but it didn't! I had the caramel crunch chai, hands down best chai I have ever tasted. I wanted to chug it. My friend loved her drink that had winter mint! I also splurged on a winter pomegranate spritz and cake pops to go. This is a coffee shop where you come in, slow down and enjoy the experience. I do not recommend this place if you want a quick coffee to go. The Barista was exceptional and she put time and effort into each drink. She did get backed up because she was all alone when a coworker called in and got slammed! She was clearly overwhelmed but never once rushed a conversation or made any of the customers feel like she didn't have time for them. Rare beauty in this rushed world we live in. She encouraged checking out the gorgeous sanctuary and stained glass windows upstairs in the sanctuary and shared stories about them. I never once felt like I was in a church basement- if that makes sense. It was warm, cozy and inviting. This is my new weekly spot! PS the kids area has a full tote of scrapbooking stuff, and the tables all have cards where you can write up a handwritten note and they send them of somewhere to spread joy and kindness. It does not get better than this.

I had assumed that Holy Grounds Coffee had taken the former St. James Catholic Church and created a…read morecool coffee shop in the building. The last I knew that the space had been an events / wedding hall, a B and B and vacant. Little did I know was that it had been reformed as an Anglican church and the coffee shop was being ran by the church in the basement. The vibe was just kinda weird...it's basically a cluttered Christian book store and gift shop serving coffee and sandwiches. The staff were polite but not very welcoming; I felt like I was intruding on a private function that didn't want me there. I took my Mocha Cream Breve' and went out on the patio for some views of the beautiful historic structure. When asked about their source for coffee beans, I was told "we get em from someplace in Arkansas". OK!?? I'm sure that some demographic here in the bible belt will find this basement quaint and charming, but it just gave me a desire to go spend my money at a more secular venue.

They had exhibits of relics upstairs and I think there were 4 or more cases like this full of relics. They had the shroud of Turin exhibit, they have a rotating exhibit featuring Mary apparitions from around the world. Then, they also have the most amazing gelato! Wow!

I've tried the Madagascar, Belgian chocolate, coconut, chocolate mint and cookie butter ! Yum I've purchased things throughout the years, prayer cards, the gold rosary ring and my favorite is the Alpaca dolls with real alpaca hair. The owner, male, told us the story behind it involving his daughter :) The owner, female, is always smiling always kind. The kids that work there are very friendly and knowledgeable! Recently they updated the upstairs, it now has an exhibit:) very cool addition. All around great shop with amazing service and very kind staff. You can tell it's family run. Thank you for serving us :)
