The water moves swiftly on the Missouri River as I walk toward the same spot where explorers Lewis and Clark stood.
In Leavenworth, the first city in Kansas, history intersects with modern attractions. Visitors gain access to iconic landmarks dating back to 1854 and a host of entertaining activities, plus 28 blocks of downtown shopping.
During my return trip to Leavenworth, I was eager to take in places I had yet to discover and revisit old gems.
Use my travel guide as an itinerary for your next overnight stay in the northeastern Kansas town, a 30-minute drive from Kansas City International Airport.
Leavenworth, Kansas: An Overnight Stay Itinerary for Guaranteed Fun
Starting the Day with Breakfast
Burr Roasters
The smell of freshly roasted coffee beans permeates the air at Burr Roasters (515 Delaware Street). A short line forms at the counters as locals sip coffee and eat breakfast at nearby tables.
I arrived hungry and ordered an English muffin breakfast sandwich with a self-serve drip coffee. A daily coffee drinker, I was impressed with the medium roast’s flavor, an indicator of the quality of the roaster’s workmanship.
PRO TIP: The Burr-ow, a backroom space dedicated to reading or board gaming, is a quiet spot to work.
Exploring Scenic Nature Sports During a Morning Walk
Leavenworth Landing Park and Three Mile Creek Trail
After an early-morning caffeine pick-me-up, park the car at Leavenworth Landing Park (301 E. Esplanade Street) and explore the quarter-mile pathway along the Missouri River for an idyllic stroll.
It’s a scenic area worth exploring for its birdwatching and native treelined grounds. The path lies parallel to an active Union Pacific railway, a nod to the town’s railroad era that replaced the Missouri River’s steamboat industry.
Public art with references to pioneer life and the railroad industry dot the landscape along the Leavenworth Landing walkway.
PRO TIP: Consider walking Three Mile Creek Trail, which connects the river’s walkway to 7th Street in historic downtown Leavenworth.
Lewis and Clark Signage
If you know the story of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, then you’re familiar with their expedition to explore west of the Mississippi River from 1804-1806. The river trek led them to the Kansas City area up the Missouri River with a stop in Leavenworth.
They recorded detailed notes about the region’s landscape for President Thomas Jefferson noting what people could expect heading west. Signage overlooking the river at 2nd and Dakota Street recognizes their visit to the area.
Esplanade Street Sidewalk Path
A stroll down Espalande Street helps you fully immerse in Leavenworth’s Victorian period. Stretching from Bob Dougherty Memorial Park to Leavenworth Landing Park, the sidewalk path offers views of the historic homes and the Missouri River.
Downtown Murals and the Statue Safari
Leavenworth’s downtown area consists of a large concentration of murals and public art.
Perhaps the most eye-catching, Explore Leavenworth Mural serves as an anchor to kick off a mural walk at 416 Cherokee Street. Artist Leigh Coffman’s depiction of the town’s events is a glimpse into its past.
It’s the tucked-away murals that excite me the most. Keep your eyes peeled for smaller paintings on doors on various buildings downtown.
My self-guided tour led me down a path across from Leavenworth City Hall (100 N. 5th Street), where I spotted benches and signage honoring self-made women who impacted Leavenworth’s history, such as National American Woman Suffrage Association leader Susan B. Anthony and singer Melissa Etheridge.
Click here to access the Mural and Statue Safari tour.

History comes alive while listening to an audio tour in downtown Leavenworth. Kiosks located in front of points of interest feature QR codes. Use your mobile phone’s camera to hover over the QR code and hear the stories of the people and places that made Leavenworth a notable northeastern Kansas town.

Taking a Mid-Day Break for Lunch
The Suburban
Savor the flavor of freshly prepared meals on a tranquil patio surrounded by lush plants and trees at The Suburban (402 S. 20th Street). Locals highly recommended that I dine at the off-the-beaten-path restaurant. I stepped onto the back patio, and it was easy to see why.
I dined on deviled eggs with bacon and a chicken cobb salad to the beat of Jamaican music while watching hosta leaves sway.
Between sips of iced tea, I noticed the hostess lead lunchtime diners to patio tables to enjoy the scenery, which resembled a nicely designed backyard landscape.
PRO TIP: An outdoor patio bar with TVs is the ideal place to watch a game.
Exploring a Local History Museum
National Fred Harvey Museum
The story of Fred Harvey is intriguing, and as someone who works in tourism, I appreciate how he grew the restaurant, hotel, and passenger train hospitality industries. His family home, the National Fred Harvey Museum (620 Olive Street) is worthy of a guided tour.
During my walk-thru of the three-story home, a volunteer tour guide shared details about Harvey’s entrepreneurial spirit, which included buying land near Florence, Kansas, where he raised livestock and grew vegetables.
Harvey not only spearheaded the restaurant and hotel industry, but he also transported refrigerated food in iced-packed train cars headed west.
The Harvey family bought the home in 1891, where he lived with his wife and five kids until he died in an upstairs bedroom from cancer in 1901.
Volunteers restore the family residence when not providing tours. Call the museum at (813) 682-7949 to schedule one.
PRO TIP: Make sure to visit the one-time carriage house to sign the guest book and view Harvey memorabilia donated by collectors. Inquire about Leavenworth Historical Museum Association’s annual fundraiser, A Taste of Leavenworth, in early September, an event that supports the home’s renovation costs.
Shopping for Great Finds
Leavenworth Antique Mall
Leavenworth Antique Mall (505 Delaware Street) contains perhaps the most extensive collection of antiques under one roof in Kansas. The multi-floor building includes countless booths stocked by antique-loving individuals displaying everything from vintage tools to retro fashions.
If you love old collectibles, you could spend hours perusing the mall while listening to oldies music play overhead. The friendly employee at the front desk is happy to answer questions about refurbishing relics.
CJ Gift Co.
Stepping into CJ Gift Co. (430 Delaware Street) is like visiting an old friend. The owner’s familiar smile and the store’s curated displays, designed for Kansas enthusiasts, make every visit a delight.

Soul Supply & Hardware
Faith-based gifts are the focus of Soul Supply & Hardware (704 Cherokee Street); however, the store’s inventory includes presents for all ages and any occasion.
Expecting parents and grandparents will appreciate the owner’s selection of kid-loving plush toys. Seasonal items, bath products, and top-selling Leavenworth t-shirts round-out the front-of-store inventory.
Reunions Antiques
For nearly two decades, Reunions Antiques’ (414 Delaware Street) relics from the past have attracted shoppers hoping to add furniture or primitive-style antiques to their collection.
The owner greeted me as he worked to display new arrivals meticulously. And if you’re searching for old furniture, his collection will exceed your expectations.
PRO TIP: The store is also home to 5th Avenue Frames. Ask them to custom frame artwork, photography, or prints.
Queens Pantry Teas
Sometimes, a cup of hot tea is just what you need, and Queens Pantry Teas (510 Delaware Street) offers samples while you shop. You will discover the Midwest’s largest selection of loose-leaf teas, British goods, and tea cups aplenty.
Consider creating a gift basket for someone while shopping for yourself. Whether one loves hot tea or cold brew, Queen’s Pantry Teas is the place to shop.
Candle Queen Candles Gift Boutique
As the name implies, Candle Queen Candles Gift Boutique (500 Shawnee Street) is a brightly-colored store selling hand-poured candles, melts, and whimsical gifts.
Imagine jarred candles with crystals protruding from them. Nearby, the shelving displays candles in scents like Margarita Slushie and Pearberry, with dried fruit hanging from twine. Expect the unexpected.
PRO TIP: Plan accordingly. The store is open on Saturdays and for special events.
Artistic Works by Lu
At first glance, Artistic Works by Lu (221 Delaware Street) appears to be a handcrafted jewelry store, but the shop also carries an extensive selection of on-trend fashions with “urban soul.”
The owner, who was busily crafting jewelry in a studio, greeted me, as did her helpful staff. I perused the store, admiring an endless boho chic apparel and jewelry inventory.
Artistic Works by Lu is where women shop when they need a go-to outfit for the weekend or a festival-ready ensemble.
Season 7 Boutique
Next door, Season 7 Boutique (208 Delaware Street) carries clothing and accessories for female dressers in search of on-trend fashions. Always stocked with Kansas City-themed shirts and jewelry, you’re bound to buy something to wear on game day.
The owners, a mother-daughter duo, carry the latest fashions for the season on display at the front of the store.

Jet Produce and Meats
Go to the source, Jet Produce and Meats (26617 Tonganoxie Road), to purchase locally grown and pasture-raised meat. Also featuring an elaborate outdoor garden house with plants for sale during the spring and summer, Jet Produce and Meats grows a wide variety of vegetables.
Peruse the outdoor garden houses to shop for plants and flowering hanging baskets before entering inside the store for refrigerated food items. Travelers without coolers will appreciate jarred foods and bagged dry goods.
Enjoying Evening Entertainment
The Retro-cade
If you think about your favorite video game, can you hear the sound of its theme song? The Retro-cade (421 Delaware Street) is a total fun zone for those who want to pay a flat fee to play unlimited games.
The sounds of Space Invaders and Mortal Kombat resonate through the arcade, open Thursday-Saturday. It’s an excellent place for all ages to enjoy indoor entertainment in a nostalgic setting.
Celebrating with Friends Over Dinner & Drinks
Leavenworth Heritage Center
Perhaps the most memorable experience during my return visit to town was enjoying dinner and a show at Leavenworth Heritage Center (109 Delaware Street). The ticketed event featured Legends of the Opry with Melissa & Company, a country music cover band.
A take on Nashville’s variety show, The Grand Ole Opry, band members and guest singers played up the theatrics, dressing in comical wigs and costumes. At one point, Elvis was bringing dancers to their feet.
The reservation-required dinner and a show were entertaining, and the best part of the evening was getting to know the guests at our shared table, who welcomed me like new friends. Three hours of fun flew by.
PRO TIP: Check the live entertainment page for upcoming events and ticket information.
Willcott Brewing Company & Taproom
As the day winds to an end, Willcott Brewing Company & Taproom (600 Cherokee Street) is the ideal place for a Happy Hour cold one. I’ve imbibed at their Holton location and found the beer and the atmosphere equally pleasing at this location.
While I appreciated the tasting sample of Four Sisters Double IPA, I decided to drink a pint of 1874 Turkey Red Wit while enjoying the cool air conditioning with view of the bar’s TV.
PRO TIP: The brewery doesn’t serve food. So, if you’re hungry, buy $5 bagged pretzels or arrive on Tuesday for food truck fare.
11Worth Station BrewHouse
11Worth Station BrewHouse (305 Cherokee Street) is where craft beer lovers will find numerous taps with Kansas beers available.
An $11 flight of four 5-ounce pours made it easy for me to sample several beers, and ultimately, my favorite one was Rockcreek Brewing Company’s Cabin Fever Reliever, a hazy IPA.
If you don’t drink beer, they have a full bar for cocktails of your choice, wine, and non-alcoholic drink options.
Checking Into Lodging for a Good Night’s Sleep
Fairfield Inn & Suites Leavenworth
Out-of-towners will be glad they chose Fairfield Inn & Suites Leavenworth, (1101 N. 4th Street) located minutes away by car from downtown. Marriott Bonvoy members, like myself, can expect a lobby with modern-style furnishings and prompt customer service upon arrival.
My King Suite home-life feel helped me unwind after a fun day of exploring. In the morning, I checked emails on my laptop using high-speed internet from a in-room workstation before enjoying a complimentary hot breakfast in the lobby.
I’m glad I returned to explore what makes Leavenworth a repeatable vacation destination. I hope you discover its delightful places using this guide and my 2o21 write-up, The Top Attractions in Leavenworth, Kansas, for bonus travel recommendations.

The Northeast Kansas town of slightly over 2,000 people is one you’ll wish you visited sooner. The perfect girl’s getaway, thanks to its plethora of downtown shops, it also caters to every kind of traveler.

The inventory includes a range of gifts for men, graduates, and decorations for your home’s seasonal switchover.
Celebrating 60 years in business, the family-owned and operated store provides courteous service. They quickly ask what you need and walk you to the item. My purchase? A rain gauge, which I couldn’t find for sale at other stores earlier in the week.
Seneca Variety
PRO TIP: Don’t miss shopping the Discount Wall. I spotted holiday decorations marked down 40 percent.
Seneca is a multi-denominational community, and Uniquely Gifted’s inventory reflects faith-based values, particularly Catholic ones.
The owner, who has a degree in apparel merchandise, does an impressive job of carrying on-trend brands and everyday apparel necessities. Racks and tables display primarily women’s apparel, but men’s clothing and children’s shoes are well-stocked.
Order a healthy protein shake or tea at the store’s beverage counter, 
If you choose a graphic design from the templates book, staff can usually print your shirt the same day. And if you’re a K-State fan, this shop carries the most extensive collection of collegiate wear in town.

The owner gets up early daily to make various bars and donuts – apple fritters sell quickly. Diners with gluten-free dietary needs will appreciate crustless quiche, energy balls, and muffins.
My ham and cheese breakfast cheese made with flaky crust was the real deal. It paired well with a Mixed Up real fruit smoothie prepared with strawberries, pineapple, mango, and peaches.
I watched from the bar as the waitstaff greeted regular customers with their usual drinks, often predicting what they wanted to order for lunch. The day’s special, a Philly cheese sandwich, sold out before 1:00 p.m.
Not only did a downtown shop owner tell me I should order the sausage and kraut pizza, but my server, Kim, admitted it was one of her favorite meals. My medium pizza arrived piping hot, covered in savory toppings and stretchy cheese. I savored two slices before taking the rest home.
I chose a table at the clubhouse restaurant amongst golfers and locals on lunch dates. The menu, consisting of appetizers, sandwedges, and fried food baskets, was extensive given the size of the restaurant. The Hole In One quesadilla prepared with grilled chicken was fulfilling and worthy of a repeat order.
Over the years, the buildings’ owners have worked long hours preserving its wood floors and stained glass arched windows to create an inviting space.
I chatted with the owner, who showed me before and after photos of the building’s renovations. A Seneca resident introduced himself and told me stories of his past while he ate a cinnamon roll and sipped coffee. Cornerstone CoffeeHaus is a delightful stop.
As you walk upon the building’s original wood floors, explore a makeshift saloon, replica schoolroom, and original artifacts for the Smith Hotel, a refuge for riders needing a break.
PRO TIP: The museum is open Memorial Day to Labor Day, Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 a.m.-2:00 pm and 9:00 am – 1:00 pm on Saturdays. To guaranteed a tour, call (785) 294-6655 to schedule an appointment.

I had my choice of two large bedrooms, and settled on the one pictured below featuring a queen bed with jersey knit duvet bedding. Each bedroom included a dresser drawer for personal items and a flatscreen Roku TV.
After a full day of exploring and shopping downtown boutiques, I spent the evening unwinding in one of the living room’s leather recliners with a glass of rosé wine.
The following day, I watched the sunrise from one of the swivel window seats pictured above with a tall mug of complimentary coffee. As traffic increased on Main Street, I felt sad knowing that I had to check out of my Airbnb and say goodbye to Seneca.
I was the second customer of the day after Korean Garden opened its doors for the day, and a Korean woman behind the counter was taking to-go orders by phone and hurriedly packaging styrofoam containers.

PRO TIP: Strike up a conversation with the owner. Her love of Junction City is infectious, and her business story is admirable.
Rather than ordering a large entree, I opted for Veg Samosas, a fried pastry stuffed with diced potatoes, seasonings, and peas served with a thin yogurt-based sauce. Each deep-fried bite was piping hot, delivering a mild flavor. Two samosas per order are a light lunch, but you’d want to order more food for a substantial meal.
PRO TIP: 
After ordering at the counter, I sat listening to soul music play from a speaker in the dining room where families and downtown workers enjoyed lunch. A buzz with activity near the door, a steady stream of locals arrived to order to-go meals.

A new art installation, JC Statues, continues to tell the story of the town’s history and its residents. Each one is painted by an individual artist, unveiling a theme represented by symbols and paint colors.

I happily devoured my lunch while watching customers order at the counter and grab a seat at tables and a nearby couch. Surrounded by music-themed artwork, I felt relaxed while enjoying the sounds of vintage rock music.

The boots are a tribute to T. C. McInerney’s Drovers Boot Store open in the 1870s. He made the first pointed toe boot. A fitting tribute since Abilene was a major stop on the Chisholm Trail.

My instructor, Darren, taught me the step-by-step process of making a linocut drawing using a provided pattern.
