“ Incredible atmosphere with the fresh baked goods made right inside and visible. Definitely more than a coffee shop. Coffee was good. Busy but line moved pretty quick thanks to efficient service. Would go here anytime and recommend to anyone. ”
“ Saturdays around noon at Messenger are crazy busy! Try to time your visit outside these hours, because the line to order is very long and there aren't a ton of seating options available. The Buttered Rum Latte tasted like brown sugar deliciousness and was perfect to pair with a good book. The Lavender Lemon Cookie was too intriguing to pass on -- very sweet and lemony with a hint of lavender at first. ”
“ Best Coffee experience I've had in a while, maybe ever. The pour overs and drip are fantastic. I'm into good light roast coffee and they have plenty of options. People were great and the vibe is stellar. 3 stories and plenty of seating. The burrito and breakfast sandwich are great food options as well. 10/10 recommend ”
“ After eating a few mornings of hotel breakfast I decided to brave the cold and try this place out. It was very easy to walk to and had a delicious almond milk latte and truly one of the best croissants I've ever had (not pictured). While at messenger I also ordered the breakfast burrito which was incredibly filling and probably two meals worth of food. The staff was incredibly kind and were hustling to get drinks and food out quickly to all of its customers. While I didn't stay inside I will say it was a beautiful location that was very bright which is my preference for a coffee shop first thing in the morning vs. the typical dark and dreary vibe that some have. ”
“ Wow this cafe was CROWDED on a Saturday morning but the line and coffee was quicker than expected. Super large space with multiple floors and seating. Lots of plants for a nice ambiance. Ordered a matcha latte, vanilla latte, raspberry orange bread pudding, and almond croissant. Drinks and bread pudding exceeded my expectations! They know what they're doing. The croissant was also great, flaky, lots of layers, I only wish they had slightly more almond filling. Highly recommend for anyone visiting KC. ”
“ Great coffee, a great food menu and great pastry options. The interior is beautiful with 3 stories of seating options and a rooftop outdoor seating area. For how fast-paced and busy it gets here, they have their system down with getting food and drinks out. ”
“ This place is packed for a reason. It's a great place to grab a coffee and the food is really good. Love coming here when I make a trip up to KC! ”
“ Oh what a neat place! I have driven by this so many times and apparently over looked it. I'm so upset I haven't tried it yet until recently since being in KC for 6 years! Coffee and breakfast sandwich were delicious. Fantastic space to meet up with friends or get some work done. ”
“ This is quite easily the largest coffee shop I've seen. They make all their pastries in-house with view of the kitchen space. There's also an upstairs area like a library. The service moves fast for a busy establishment. I ordered... Pepperoni pizza bagel ($5): oh my yum. This could be a full meal of its own with how satiating and savory it is. The thing is huuuge! Matcha ($5): this is a great quality drink, with hardly any noticeable sweetener, just how I like it! I came from out of town, so I won't be back in the near future, but I recommend Messenger Coffee for your own out-of-towners! ”
