The Roasterie Woodside Café
2250 W 47th Pl, Kansas City, KS
Crema's Take
“The Roasterie Woodside Café has earned its reputation as a Kansas City coffee institution with a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels equally welcoming whether you're settling in with a laptop or stopping by for a quick espresso pull. Their baristas clearly take pride in both traditional and creative drinks—think a Dirty Chai that apparently lives up to its hype—and pair them with quality pastries that locals have been seeking out for three decades. While prices skew higher and there's some debate about whether their drinks match the premium, the genuine hospitality and thoughtful craft keep people coming back.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

Discovered today the secret that most Kansas Citians who love coffee already know: the Roasterie is a solid choice for those who love good coffee and pastries. Ordered a cortado and a couple pastries. The cortado was perfect, accompanied by a carbonated mineral water and a small…
