JUDGE'S TOP PICKS
(Twenty area baristas, coffeehouse owners and coffee lovers visited,
hung out and drank coffee at over 50 different area coffee establishments.
Here are the top five rankings with a portion of judges’ comments.)
The Coffee Girls
310 Southwest Blvd., 816-221-2326
“A new coffeehouse with two experienced owners who worked at
other coffeehouses. It’s going to be a winner!”
HiHat Coffee
5012 State Line, 913-722-5000
“A very friendly staff, probably due to the neighborhood feel
and location, plus it’s such a small space. On a nice day the
seating outside would be an option. My drink was very tasty and presentable.”
Broadway Café
4106 Broadway, 816-531-2432
“There’s nothing like fresh roasted coffee from Broadway.”
Annedore’s
106 E. 43rd St., 816-753-5012
“Quiet, good place to read and stretch out with fine coffee,
great service and food. Added plus is that there’s no extra charge
for soy milk in the cappuccino.”
Latteland
318 W. 47th St., 816-931-7477
“The coffee was great. The atmosphere really fits the Plaza.
The staff was nice. Overall, it’s my favorite of them all.”
