Thou Mayest - Nelson-Atkins

I stopped in after visiting a few galleries at The Nelson Atkins and had a quick, enjoyable latte. The cafe area has a nice view of the north side of the museum and plaza park space. The coffee is good. If you are in need of a quick cup while visiting the museum, stop in!

I ordered an iced vanilla latte. Customer service was great, coffee was affordable and made quickly. Taste was the best I’ve had in a while.

What a cute coffee shop right inside the Nelson-Atkins Museum, hits the right note for coffee and chill. It’s inside a museum and boy the decor and vibe is on point, it has the best view of the museum and the shuttlecock. I highly recommend it for the view and the amazing people running the shop. Coffee was a little on the dark dark roast side which I’m usually not a fan of so wouldn’t recommend the latte or at least a concentrated 8oz, the other options might suit you better. They have some pastries and cold brew as well.

Baristas were pleasant, efficient and were able to signal our orders completion in a perfect call while not a yell was clearly discernible over the buzz in the mostly full cafe area. The double espresso and black tea were delicious and artfully prepared. Appreciated chilled water unfortunately served in plastic. The breakfast burrito criss-crossed with panini stripped caramelization was generous in portion and had a well balanced vegetable taste. Filling could have been more cohesive as it could not be dipped cleanly in hot sauce. Service on saucer plates did not seem deliberate. Otherwise this was a memorable clean service in a brilliant modern architecture. 14.75 wt

Great service, the barista was very enthusiastic and friendly. He had great recommendations for the folks ahead of me and very open to making customizations. My macchiato was very smooth with a nice touch of bitterness and packed a good caffeine punch. The menu was very elaborate with several house made cold and hot beverages including a assortment of high quality snacks and chocolates.

Loved walking around and seeing artistry that matters and builds an unique culture of Kansas City. Very relaxing in this weather

I don’t know that I’d come all the way here just for the coffee. But if you’re in the Nelson anyway, this is definitely worth a stop. I showed up early to beat the crowds and get some caffeine before strolling some of my favorite spots in the museum. The chai tasted great and was served at just the right temperature. The barista was polite and efficient. Seating was comfortable and quiet (though I’m guessing it might get noisy later in the day). I’ll definitely do this again on future visits.
