Cellar Door
7 W 11th St, Lawrence, KS
Crema's Take
“Cellar Door feels like a carefully curated escape in Lawrence, where espresso-focused coffees meet an impressive lineup of French pastries like buttery financiers and delicate cakes with unexpected flavors like orange and caramel icing. Beyond the stellar lattes with real body and precision, regulars rave about the thoughtfully made food—English muffins, egg and ham sandwiches, and chocolate chip cookies that people make special trips back for. It's the kind of place that makes you forget you're in Kansas, with a genuine warmth and intention to every detail that keeps people coming back.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, good cold brew. Slow-sit spot. Pastries on the menu.

Absolutely fire! This place always stands out every time I go. I got the cider and it was great it was warm and had the perfect flavor. The atmosphere is great to hang out and eat and drink. The food is absolutely top tier as well. The homemade bagels are to die for and there…
