Parisi Café - Union Station

Crema's Take

Tucked inside Kansas City's grand Union Station, Parisi Café pulls off the rare feat of being both a quick caffeine stop and a genuinely chill place to linger, with soaring ceilings and ornate architecture that make waiting for your train feel less like a hassle and more like part of the experience. Their espresso work is serious—think proper cortados and consistently excellent mochas—while their pastries (including a legendary fancy pop tart) and full breakfast menu give you reason to arrive early and stay awhile, especially once you claim one of their generous seating options either inside the café or out front.

Amazing place! They make a proper traditional cortado and their fancy pop tart was delicious. The staff were friendly and you can't beat the awesome location being in the super tall ceiling and ornate Union station.

This is a great place to chill and wait for your train / ride! I got there at 7:00 am, and the whole area was clean and tidy. You can sit at the tables out front or at the chairs in the little nook in the back. (The back was pretty quiet when I was there.) The workers were really nice and got my drink to me quickly. They have a great selection of hot teas, which was greatly appreciated! They also have free wifi that worked great. Overall, my only complaint is that they aren't open later!

Quaint coffee shop inside historic Union Station. Friendly staff and delish drinks. I had a hot and iced mocha and both were exactly what I needed. Very yummy and hit the spot.

Architect, taste, coffee, Kwaaaswann, they have it allllll. Place has a different vibe. Sooo chill. Tons of seating. You can either be in the cafe orrrrr "at the station" 😉. We got in line and there were these French college kids ahead of us. Well, that group went from 2 kids to 12 in a hurry while we were just waiting behind them. Props to Amber for serving our order (Cortado and Pumpkin latte) first. Super cool of ya! The staff is fun and my drink tasted delicious

Great coffee shop in a beautiful spot. Naturally, the prices are a bit high but the coffee quality is fantastic. The interior is actually quite underrated, they have a very peaceful and pleasant seating area in the back of the shop. I loved my mocha and loved sitting in Union Station to enjoy it. 5 stars!
