    So cool traveling to other cities and seeing how much more vegan-friendly their restaurants and cafes are! (Yes, this is direct shade at you, San Francisco). Everyone thinks SF is so vegan-friendly, but never do I get to walk into a coffee shop and find dedicated, intentional, and creative vegan dishes! Mildred's has two delicious options: Vegan breakfast wrap and the Vegan breakfast Hash. The wrap is huge and has tofu, potato, vegan chorizo, and vegan aioli. Easily 2 portions! The hash is my favorite of the two. It's the same ingredients but with added arugula. I liked eating it more off a plate, and the arugula added a fresh and peppery touch. This place is always busy, but it's also spacious with plenty of seating. So glad I got to try this place out!

    Cobb chicken salad
    Ashton W.

    So I really do love Mildred's they have a Monte Cristo Sandwich is chefs kiss, but I wanted to try something new and different so I tried the Cobb Chicken salad. It wasn't my favorite. I will say everything was fresh and looked delicious however the dressing is a bit odd it's a vinegar based dressing that is not really my preferred tasting. Other than that the staff is always pleasant the atmosphere is a great place to work at .

    Vegetarian breakfast sandwich, added bacon
    D L.

    Came in for a quick pick up order. Staff is friendly and atmosphere is chill (: I really liked the sound of the standard breakfast sandwich but I wanted veggies in it, so I got the vegetarian breakfast sandwich and added bacon. It was sooooo good! Their ciabatta bread is fluffy and soft, and their aioli is delicious. I liked that the sandwich wasn't huge yet filling.

    Chocolate Chip Cookie
    Lee W.

    Brioche Cinnamon Roll was the star, Chocolate Chip Cookies were delicious and well priced. Didn't love the eggs in the Chipotle Breakfast Wrap. Vibes were welcoming, service was accommodating, location took me a few minutes to find

    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.

    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!!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Got the popular breakfast "wrap" I think it would be great with the aioli on the side, since it overbears the whole wrap when put inside

What appears to be a mom and pop bakery is actually a baker who has carefully done his research and brings himself up to date on the latest trends of flavor in the baking world. The vibes are amazing - I especially love the art piece on the wall he commissioned from a local artist. I saw the Instagram page with several posts explaining how he did each part. Everything was absolutely delicious (I am biased with the ham and gruyere cheese since that is a favorite combo of mine), the danish was delicious (I could tell maybe it uses veryberryosa - a recent trend in baking to be used as filling), and the same was probably on the cinnamon roll looking crossaint. Now the grand prize - the mochi donuts were spectacular. The flavors I got were raspberry almond (my #1 favorite I got twice), cereal (this was carefully curated and not too sweet like most cereal based baked goods), Irish coffee (didn't taste like coffee, gave it to a friend) and the mango black tea was also a slam dunk for me. The staff are incredibly friendly here which is a huge plus!

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.
