Crema's Take

Filling Station strikes that rare balance between a quick caffeine stop and a lingering third place, with espresso drinks executed at the perfect temperature and creative seasonal specialties that keep regulars coming back for years. The team genuinely remembers your name and order, and their simple but craveable breakfast offerings like the Clutch burrito pair perfectly with a vanilla oat latte in their cozy Midtown space. This is the kind of place that inspires people to bring bags of beans home when they travel.

Idk how but my latte was the PERFECT temperature, and it tasted really good! The clutch is a simple and delicious breakfast burrito that I definitely recommend! Great place to stop if you want a place to park for coffee and a nibble.

I have been coming to Filling Station coffee here in Kansas City, MO for more than three years while visiting from AZ for Christmas. Such good coffee! I usually take some home when I return to AZ. This is the first time I have tried their food; great!! See you all next year!!

Solid coffee spot! Their drinks and food are always good. They have fun, seasonal specialty drinks and all the typical espresso drinks. They also have an assortment of teas. I had the spiced cookie butter latte and it was super yummy! They have a cute merch section great for gifts. Their staff is always friendly and helpful. One thing to note is they do not have a drive thru.

Very chill spot serving fresh coffee and light food fare and delicious looking pastries. I had the avocado toast and my husband had the Turkey sandwich. We also had a vanilla oat latte each. The espresso roast was great and nutty with light chocolate notes. We were able to dine in but the place is a bit small so there might be a wait if you want to dine in and they’re busy. We would come back here again because they have good food 🥯 good service and good coffee ☕️

Filling Station is my favorite coffee shop in KC! Everyone there is so kind—go often enough, and they’ll know you by name. It’s small but mighty, always popular, and for good reason. I love their mocha lattes made with chocolate milk! Their food is a bit pricey, as most coffee shop food is, but it’s genuinely good. I usually get the chorizo clutch burrito or the turkey sandwich. They also serve desserts and pastries from Ibis Bakery, which are fantastic, so I can enjoy a full meal and dessert if I want. Plus, they have a reward system, which I really appreciate. The best part, though, is the vibe. The space used to be a garage and it still has that rustic charm. In warm weather, they open up the space and there’s also great patio seating. They go all out with seasonal decorations, and I’m loving the Christmas decor right now. Overall, it’s a fantastic coffee shop—I just keep coming back!
