1888 Coffee House
3504 Gillham Rd, Kansas City, MO
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused neighborhood gem has mastered the art of the perfect pour-over alongside a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that keeps regulars coming back for months. Their iced coffee actually tastes like coffee (not watered-down regret), and the baristas elevate every drink with care—from seasonal creations like the Apple Jack latte to classics that impress visiting family. It's the kind of place where you can camp out with your laptop, catch genuine hospitality from the staff, and feel like you've discovered your new favorite spot.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A laptop-friendly spot, quick-grab. Wifi.

We are surrounded by many great coffee shops. But. When we have family over from out of state and want to take them to try excellent coffee. 1888 is the place. We have tried the most delicious and interesting coffee flavors. And their foam is out of this world.

It's definitely a vibe! Cute coffee shop with amazing service, great coffee and open early on Sundays! Try the new seasonal latte... the apple jack. Thank me later! The #87 latte was good too!
