I just hustled over to the counter to order my drink and went to the library. Again, loved the drink and would have loved to have stayed. Sigh...this was a nice place for quiet evening options in the L.S. area, particularly for places that open until 9; however, they began hosting karaoke, open mic nights, and the like. Nice option, if this is your cup of tea, and understandable because they needed the business for the evenings. Kudos to them for getting more business this way. It appeals to the folks around here. Maybe, I'd find it appealing if a coffee shop had an open mic night for poetry and prose, sort of how the Beatniks did it in the late 50s to 60s, but that's just me.

Love the vibe, artwork and comfortable seating in this charming cafe. The coffee was delicious too.read more

It is a bit of a drive from KC area, but easy to find and get to. The event space overlooks scenic hills and a mini pond/lake, it was so calming! It's a great place to host events, and then we trekked over to one of the many fields to watch some fireworks. There is also a mini golf course on this land. If you're looking for a getaway in the country-land of Kansas, this is definitely a place to consider! Seriously, I'm a self-proclaimed city girl, but this place made me want to consider living on a farm with acres of land, lol!

I was able to have my rehearsal dinner and my wedding at Fireflies Farm. They were incredibly accompanying to weather issues for the rehearsal dinner, and the staff worked to make sure I had no worries! The family suite for the bridesmaids and groomsmen gave me and my 8 bridesmaids plenty of room to relax, eat, and get ready! The caterer, TJ, provided excellent food and has so much expertise in large scale events. I would recommend Fireflies Farm to anyone who is seeking a high-class wedding experience with beautiful views.

We were greeted at the door by Cynthia and she asked when do you want breakfast? It topped my whole wedding day! The room was welcoming with the door sign- Don and Anne plus the Mr & Mrs sign on the bed with chocolate truffles. Our breakfast started with a light fruit parfait with a hint of carmal, mimosas, the best eggs Benedict I've ever had plus a lemon pound cake. Don was able to create some of the menu when he went to tour before our wedding. I can't say enough about our stay - I was on cloud nine and felt like a bride princess!!!

These talented women served our group not only a scrumptious and savory breakfast scramble, but soft and chewy homemade yogurt parfaits for something sweet, alongside a pile of crispy, cinnamon sugar-dusted donuts that were to DIE for! Book a reservation the next time you're in town, if you enjoy comfy, cozy, and crazy good attention to detail and design.

Being able to sit down and plan out everything from the decorations, the seating, and all the way down to the exact menu we wanted in one meeting made everything so stress free. We were able to have 50 of our closest family friends in attendance and the space fit everyone perfectly. We had so many of our guests compliment the food, and the staff here was so amazing in putting together such an amazing dinner for all of us. However, I will say the cream cheese ice cream that I wanted to see if they could recreate (Which they DID) was the biggest hit of the night! The photos we took at the venue do not do this place justice! I couldn't be happier with our experience here!!

There were many people from all over town and our little area here in New Longview. My wife and I live is Kessler Ridge, so we drove less than five minutes to get to the mansion. We have been on the grounds many times before, but this was the first time we were able to visit the interior of the house. It is impressive and fun. There were lots of little pop-up shops set up inside the mansion, all on the main floor and then in a tent that extended from a sunporch on the back of the house. That was by far the biggest area to shop. The rest of the little pop-up areas were small and cozy inside the house. The staff was lovely and serving drinks, wine and food. We only had one glass of wine so we could drive home safely. We loved walking around the house, which everyone who attended was allowed to do with no drama and no supervision. Everyone I saw was super respectful of the property. Everyone we encountered was kind. It was a lovely evening. I hope they do it again next year so we can go.
