This one goes out to all the coffee lovers out there. There is always the perfect coffee for the time of day. Maybe a nice pour over to start your day, an iced latte for a late morning pick-me-up, or possibly an afternoon cold brew to give you that kick you need to make it through the rest of the day.
Below are the top coffee shops in Overland Park, in no particular order. I strongly advise not visiting all of these coffee shops in one day. I am getting the caffeine shakes just thinking about it.
McLain’s Market - McLain’s Market has pretty much everything you need in a coffee shop. A wide variety of coffee offerings, their famous baked goods, and a covered patio. Extra points here for the drive thru that comes in clutch when you have sleeping kids in the car.
Revocup – Looking for a low-key spot to get away for a bit? Revocup has that. Not only is their coffee great, but it is also responsibly sourced. Revocup gives back a percentage of every cup of coffee and bag of beans sold to their coffee-growing communities.
Homer’s -This is a Downtown OP staple. When you are here, you will feel like you are a part of the community. With their inclusive atmosphere and wonderful drinks (I’m talking about the Caramello) you will be happy you visited.
Pilgrim Coffee – Pilgrim does it all, and they are doing it all great. Pour overs, check. Americano, check. Nitro, check. Craft Soda, check. Louisburg Lemonade, check. As you can see, they have pretty much everything you could dream of. Now comes the question of whether you should get a donut or pop-tart to go along with it.
Parisi – Only at Parisi Cafe can you have an Italian coffee experience without having to leave Overland Park. Here you will find all the class coffee options executed to perfection, but you would really be missing out if you left without trying the Cold Brew Shandy.
Jinkies! Coffee and Hangout – This is a groovy 70's themed coffee shop, serving coffee from local roasters, Blip Coffee. You can also find made from scratch pastries and their famous sugar cookies. Don't be surprised if you hear Elton John or The Rolling Stones when you walk in.
Summer Moon Coffee – A beloved Texas Coffee Company where you can find wood-fired roasted coffee, served up with their specialty moon milk. Their light and airy shop is an inviting spot to work or grab a drink with friends.
Cafe Equinox -- Cafe Equinox isn't your typical coffee shop. Located inside of Family Tree Nursery, Cafe Equinox is a botanically inspired cafe. Here you will find coffee from Thou Mayest as well as many other wonderful local pastries and treats. Grab a seat surrounded by plants and take in some clean air while enjoying your coffee.
