    Mildred's truly has some of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. I highly recommend the vegan breakfast wrap even for people that don't adhere to a vegetarian or vegan diet.

    Cinnamon Roll

    Arguably the top brunch eggs/sandwich/pastry spot west of the Mississippi (or in Kansas City) Don't pass on a baked good and regret it. Chocolate chip banana bread and cinnamon roll were both great! Very quick service. Patrons cleaned up after themselves so it stayed nice & clean.

    The Standard Breakfast Sandwich
    Kelse S.

    Mildred's is THAT girl. What a great spot to grab breakfast at before heading back to STL. This was exactly what I was looking for to fulfill my brunch/ lunch cravings. This is order at the counter and the line moves pretty fast. They have coffee, tea, kombucha, wine and beer, and brunch drinks. I didn't indulge in any boozy cocktails as I was driving, but the coffee was great and I really enjoyed it. Their breakfast is again one all day, and they also have lunch sandwiches. I got the standard breakfast sandwich which came with a steamed egg and bacon. I really liked the steamed egg, it was light and fluffy. I also grabbed a slice of chocolate chip banana bread to enjoy later and it was amazing. The aesthetic of the place is super cute. Loved the drawings and small touches on all of the wrappings and cups. Just go!! You won't be disappointed!!

    I love Mildred's! It's one of my favorite coffee shops! The granola bar and the chipotle breakfast wrap is my go to. I enjoy their chai, tea, and matcha. The matcha does come pre sweetened so I have to let them know I don't want sweetener and typically add cinnamon. I have enjoyed every location!!

    Biscuits and Gravy
    Noel F.

    Mildred's is a favorite when I'm in KC, and this is my new favorite location - definitely felt very spacious compared to the other one I went to that was more downtown. I opted for the biscuits and gravy this time instead of a breakfast sandwich and WOW. The gravy had a little kick and the biscuits were substantial. Drinks were good as always! Friendly staff, too.

    Always love coming back to Mildred's. Spent my birthday morning at Mildred's with Hot Pumpkin Spice latte and Standard breakfast sandwich! There's something about breakfast sandwich at Mildred's. You can't get better than this. Service hasn't changed one bit and I ended up spending couple of hours. Love the ambiance!

    Pro tip: most everything is special.

    Crossroads. Coffee. Vibe. Mildred's has the vibe locked down, the coffee & coffee beverage options are outstanding, and hey, this Mildred's anchors that west Crossroads. For my money, it's hands-down the first option for me when I want a place to enjoy or work while enjoying my coffee. Parking stinks, but so what? Crossroads isn't the suburbs, so it's not like you have tons of space. If you can park on one of the side streets, then great; if you have to walk a bit, then that is normal. It certainly isn't Mildred's fault that they have a great location that is more attuned to foot or bicycle traffic. Once you're there, then enjoy the spacious interior. There is a large U-shaped "bar" area, with single seats and power adapters nearby, handy for that mobile work experience when your device batteries can't hang. If there is any knock to the space, it is that the line, near the door mind you, can get somewhat crowded while ordering, and then that crowd shifts slightly to the left for people waiting for their orders. Mildred is probably doing the best they can given the space, but it does get very bunchy. If you're there for breakfast, then I highly recommend the Standard Sandwich. Eggs & bacon atop your choice of bread (go for brioche, even if it's extra) with Swiss & a dijonnaise. It pairs splendidly with a cup of their house roast blend and the sammich has a short life span. My wife and I are also suckers for the gooey butter cake, and it does not disappoint. It's like a version of that simple dessert that maybe one of the ladies at church made when you were a kid, maybe during a potluck, and you've been looking to match it ever since. It is delightful! The merch matches the vibe and the employees are friendly and focused. There are a couple other locations around town, but when you're in the Crossroads for coffee, this is the place to be. The price point is very fair for the area and the value is spot on. It might get a touch loud if the space is crowded, but there are options to take it as you go or to just stay to enjoy, so do just that!

    Mildred's in Midtown KC is a fast casual sandwich spot with an open kitchen layout that will quickly find a special place in your heart. The restaurant is a lively place to be at and offers outdoor seating, spots near the open kitchen, and a separate indoor dining area to choose from. As soon as you enter through the main door, you'll see outdoor or window side seating areas, with the menu displayed and an ordering kiosk on the left. When I walked in, the line was short, moved quickly, and the staff was friendly and easy to talk to and the service was fairly quick. The restaurant offers our breakfast brunch and lunch menu along with a bunch of vegan and gluten-free food options and all the food is decently priced. If you compare it with the local breakfast shops, Mildred definitely stand outs to be more affordable. The portion size is not too big so I feel One could still be hungry even after having one sandwich without a drink. We ordered the Guacamole Chicken Club and the Ham and Swiss sandwich. Both sandwiches were tasty, but the clear winner was the Ham and Swiss. It had a perfectly balanced flavor from savory and meaty to hints of garlic. The generous portion of ham paired well with the toasted bun, making it a real treat. While placing my order, I asked the staff to make sure the chicken in the guacamole chicken club was juicy, since grilled chicken can often turn out dry. She mentioned it was pre-prepared but assured me she'd make sure it came out juicy. The Guacamole Chicken Club was good too, though the guacamole was under seasoned or not seasoned at all. It tasted like plain mashed avocado, which was fresh and enjoyable but it overpowered the rest of the sandwich!! The chicken itself was juicy and well prepared. Overall, the sandwiches were of amazing quality and flavor. I also grabbed a drip coffee, which cost around 4 dollars for a 16-ounce cup and it was refreshing what havewith the sandwiches. The sandwiches came with a bag of Boulder Chips, cooked in avocado oil, and I thought they paired well with the light, fresh vibe of the sandwiches. We chose to sit near the open kitchen area. Personally, I found it a bit loud because of the foot traffic, but it still felt warm and welcoming to be there. The restaurant has a decent sized menu, offering everything from breakfast options to lunch items. The sandwiches lean more toward lunch time food, but we had them for breakfast and had no regrets. This specific location has live music on first Fridays as well. I also loved the breakfast inspired cute deli paper designs and my favorite one was the dancing bacon. Overall, I think you'd enjoy this vibrant sandwich spot. If you're hoping for a quiet breakfast, it's best to arrive right when they open or during late lunch hours. I would happily rate the experience 5/5.

    Breakfast hash
    Sabrina S.

    Mildred's will forever be a place I always recommend to someone if they want a yummy lunch with great vibes. The service is quick and the people are so friendly !The menu specials change often with great seasonal coffees to pair with their pastries and breakfast items. Besides the breakfast hash, Their chipotle breakfast burrito, chipotle turkey wrap and standard Breakfast sandwich all should get honorable mentions! Their cinnamon rolls also slap!

    Cobb salad -Smaller size
    Payton W.

    Loved it here! Located in the Crossroads Art District. The inside is huge with lots of seating. There's a room in the back as well. The kitchen is open a with bar top seating that wraps around. They have great breakfast and lunch options. I got the Cobb salad (smaller size) and it was still plenty of food. I wish I could've tried more. The service was also nice and quick for how busy it was during lunch rush.

    Guac Chicken sandwich

    This was my second time here. When I say.... YUM! That's exactly what I mean! Everything I've tried so far has been nothing short of amazing!!! The baked goods are really yummy too! 10/10 RECOMMEND

    had a fantastic, relaxing morning at Mildred's in Kansas City. I tried the Café de Olla (their cold brew with milk and vanilla), and it was excellent--smooth with just the right amount of sweetness. The highlight, though, was the Standard Vegetarian sandwich. It was honestly incredible; the steamed egg was so fluffy and delicious, it really lived up to the hype. I managed to snag a spot by the fireplace in the back to read my book, which made for a very peaceful and cozy atmosphere. Just a heads-up that it's all street parking. I got lucky with a spot nearby, but even if you have to walk a block or two, the food and the vibes are well worth it. I'll definitely be back!

    cinnamon roll
    Allison G.

    I am really picky about my iced lattes (always taste too milky or not enough espresso flavor). I loved my snickerdoodle iced latte here!! It was the percent balance of espresso, milk, and flavoring/sweetness. Great vibe with plenty of space to sit & the cinnamon roll was delish.

    Cute and quaint. Same vibes as their two sister restaurants. Saturday at noon, and the case was…read morepretty full. Unsure if they had more options in the back, but outside of macaroons, no gf options. They do have tea but it's not advertised on their menu. They have such cute teapots and cups for their tea. Had the fig honey latte, they do have either oat or whole milk options. Slightly sweet, and very good. I ended up with almond croissant which was flaky, slightly sweet, and great mouth feel.

I went for the pistachio honey latte (I'm a sucker for pistachio!) and snagged the last veggie quiche of the morning around 11am. Both were absolutely delicious and perfect for breakfast. My friend had the rosewater croissant and a strawberry matcha iced latte--both equally unique and delightful. Despite being a bustling Saturday morning, the staff was incredibly kind and efficient. There's both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a cozy spot no matter the weather. For parking, I'd recommend Westport Road or 40th Street (west of Main) and taking a short walk. Preordering whole quiches, tarts, cookies, cupcakes may require 48 hours' notice. Enchanté is more than just a bakery--it's a little slice of magic in Kansas City. I can't wait to go back and try more seasonal goodies!

    In the storied enclave of Waldo, where the rhythm of Kansas City pulses with a quiet, neighborly…read morecharm, there stands a sanctuary not of silent stone, but of flour, butter, and memory: McLain's Bakery. To step through its threshold is to surrender to the siren song of warmth that curls from the oven like a whispered secret. I have made it my pilgrimage to traverse the entirety of their menu, a culinary odyssey that has yielded no false steps, only a symphony of consistency that borders on the miraculous. Each offering, from the flaky, golden architecture of their pastries to the robust, honest comfort of their savory fare, is a testament to the artisan's hand. Here, affordability is not a sacrifice of quality but a generous invitation, a rare confluence where the exquisite meets the accessible. There is a certain magic in the air at McLain's, a sweetness that feels woven into the very fabric of the establishment. It is a place that understands the language of comfort, speaking it fluently in the dialect of a perfect crust or the rich, dark notes of a expertly pulled espresso. It is perhaps no surprise that such a bastion of authentic delight has garnered a reputation that extends far beyond our local borders; if the standard of excellence is high enough to grace the plate of Taylor Swift, then surely, it is more than enough for us, the grateful residents who claim this treasure as our own. Yet, beyond the flour-dusted counters and the glowing glass cases, my deepest admiration is reserved for their spirit. In a world that often measures worth in cold, transactional metrics, McLain's chooses to honor those who pour themselves into the future of our community. As a teacher, I feel that recognition in the small gestures, the welcoming nods, and the genuine appreciation they extend to educators. It is a profound kindness, a recognition that the work of shaping minds requires nourishment, both intellectual and literal. They understand that a classroom is a marathon, and they act as the essential pit stop, providing the fuel that keeps the light of inquiry burning bright. To dine at McLain's is to participate in a ritual of belonging. It is a place where the passage of time is marked not by the ticking of a clock, but by the turning of the oven trays. It is a reliable heartbeat in the neighborhood, steadfast and true, offering a reprieve from the clamor of the outside world. Whether one seeks a quiet moment of reflection over a cup of coffee or a celebratory feast that honors the simple, profound joy of eating well, McLain's remains an unrivaled steward of taste. It is not merely a bakery; it is the living, breathing soul of Waldo, a place where every bite serves as a reminder that some things in this life are exactly as good as they ought to be.

    For the first time ever I used McLain's for catering and I'm officially bumping my review from 4 to…read more5 stars because honestly they did such a spectacular job at such a reasonable price I'm already wishing I had another excuse to order from them again! A few months ago my sister and I hosted a baby shower for our other sister and after looking around an options we decided to go with McLains. It was a smaller group, and we were doing a brunch theme, and our sister LOVES sweets. That paired with our desire to support local, and our shared love of McLains, this was just the most obvious choice. We ended up ordering a cake and first of all I have to say their cake flavor choices are insane - I think we settled on a chocolate cake with peanut butter filling (YUM), but I don't think you can go wrong here. We also ordered one of their pre-set pastry bundles for pick up and honestly everything was wonderful. I think I placed the order about a week out and it was ready when I came to pick it up. What pushed this experience into five star category for me? Just the friendliness of the staff, the serving tools they send you home with, and how thoughtful everyone was. The food was also really just exactly what we needed and it was so good there were hardly any leftovers, I think the kids cleared us out by lunch! At any rate, if you're on the hunt for a great spot to support for your next brunch event consider McLains - they won't let you down!
