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.

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.
