The Best Places to Sip & Savor in Olathe, Kansas

November 8, 2022 by Vanessa Whiteside Leave a Comment

Disclosure: Visit Olathe sponsored this post. However, all opinions and photographs are my own.

Follow the winery, brewery, and sweet treats trail in Olathe! The northeastern suburb near Kansas City offers visitors plenty of places to sip and savor. If you love coffee and pastries, a glass of palate-pleasing wine, or a well-crafted beer, you’ll love Olathe.

DAY 1

SWEET TEE’S COFFEE SHOP

You’ll need to fuel up for a fun day of exploring sip-and-savor locations. I recommend starting your day at Sweet Tee’s Coffee Shop (2063 E. Santa Fe) where the locals go for relaxing vibes and a delicious breakfast.

coffee shop interiorOpened in its original location in 2015, the cafe won Best Atmosphere for two years running by Restaurant Guru. You’ll love the casual, comfy ambiance of the café, which reminded me of The Perk in the TV show Friends.  Trending music plays in the background as patrons sit at tables sipping coffee and bent over laptops. Paired-up friends chat about the day’s happenings.

They offer a long list of traditional coffee drinks but it’s the specialty drink menu that shines. They also have almost two dozen flavor combinations to choose from when crafting your custom coffee drink. For customers who prefer a non-coffee beverage, Sweet Tee’s Coffee Shop serves tea and cider.

Muffin & Lattécoffee mugsIt is nearly impossible to order at the register without spying on a delicious homemade pastry in the bakery case. The owner told me she had just pulled warm blueberry muffins from the oven so it was a no-brainer. It was the perfect pairing with my chai latté.

The barista asks dine-in customers to choose their coffee mug from a wall of colorful cups of various sizes and designs. It makes for a memorable experience you’ll want to repeat.

PRO TIP:  Tell the barista what size coffee you prefer, and they will point you to the row of mugs that match it in size.

KC WINE COMPANY

As I pulled into the massive parking lot, I realized that KC Wine Company (13875 S. Gardner Rd) would become my happy place. I could see vineyards, a barn, and an inviting tasting room. Soon, I was getting a private tour of the ground from its founder. But first, I needed one of their famous wine slushies. Or two.

wine slushyKC Wine Co. is not just a tasting room next to a vineyard. It’s a winery destination located on five acres with a multitude of things for visitors to enjoy.

The owners wanted guests to use all of the senses while visiting. Whether you’re noting the smell of fresh cedar inside the red barn or sitting on a swing and enjoying the view with a wine glass in hand, you’ll get the whole experience.

KC Wine Company Vineyard Pub SignInside The Barrel Room, adults can savor tasting flights ranging from dry whites and reds to sweeter varieties. You’ll discover an expansive open-air building with outdoor seating and a scenic view of the vineyards just beyond its doors. An oversized KC Wine Co. lights up at night, providing a picture-worthy moment.

The owners also created an area devoted to visitors of all ages. Guests can experience Sunflower Fest, a pumpkin patch, and a self-guided holiday lights tour depending on the season. Bring your camera! You can take photos next to Instagram-friendly backdrops. Parents with children can watch their kids enjoy the playground equipment. Dog lovers will appreciate the annual event Mutts & Merlot, which encourages visitors to bring their furry family members.

wine bottlePlan your visit to the winery around one of their popular events or harvest dates. You won’t want to miss events like Oktoberfest, Cider Fest, and Sunflower Fest. The fun continues during the Christmas season when Santa makes an appearance and twinkling lights illuminate the space.

White wines are harvested in late August and you can expect reds to be harvested in late September or early October. You don’t have to pay an admission fee or place a reservation before your arrival. View the winery’s hours here.

kc wine coThe red barn is also open to visitors. Walk inside to order a wine slushy, a pint of Free State Brewing Company craft beer, or a non-alcoholic beverage. Look for a seasonal display with a bench to take a photo with friends or family.

PRO TIP: Pack a soft-sided cooler. If you purchase a chilled wine like their top seller Sunflower Red, you’ll want to keep it at temperature for the drive home.

TALL TRELLIS BREW CO.

It was time to continue the sip-and-savor tour, and I was famished. I drove a short distance to Tall Trellis Brew Co. (25600 W. Valley Parkway). The family-run business originated as a hop farm and has since grown into a brewery featuring a coffee shop, event location, and lunch or dinner destination.

Tall Trellis Brew Co.The building is a welcoming and beautifully designed space. The owners, who are brothers-in-law, did an incredible job creating both an indoor and outdoor patio space with you can sit back and be yourself, plus dogs are allowed on the patio.

Indoors, white tiling and wood textures contrast with green accents. A photograph of their hop farm guides the eye down a hallway. Nearby, an event space is separated by an interior glass door. The vibes are unpretentious and comfortable. It’s the kind of place where you want to hang out all afternoon.

The brewery quickly expanded from one barrel to five barrels since its opening last spring. Although they don’t off traditional beer flights, I wanted to taste all five of their brews ranging from an espresso stout to a golden ale. Each one tasted true to my character and exceeded my expectations. My favorite was Snap Chaps Western IPA, and lucky for me, I took a crowler home to enjoy later.

They invite breweries who use their hops to join the tap wall. Patrons can choose from guest taps from makers like Fields and Ivy Brewery, Free State Brewing Company, and Kansas Territory Brewing Company. Non-beer drinkers will appreciate their selection of wine and coffee bar selections.

PizzaThe food menu included a short list of flatbreads. When they told me that the brisket on the Meats Pizza was made by an American Royal award-winning barbecuer, Abs of Squeal, it was a no-brainer. My lunchtime experience was top-notch, and I can’t wait to return to Tall Trellis Brewing Company.

PRO TIP: The brewery hosts food trucks every weekend. Check out their Facebook page for updates and brewery hours.

EMBASSY SUITES BY HILTON KANSAS CITY OLATHE

During my sip-and-savor tour, it was a good time to take a break and check into my hotel room at Embassy Suites by Hilton (10401 S. Ridgeview Rd.). The highly-rated hotel is stunning inside. The lobby’s modern design and cobalt blue accents caught my eye.

hotel lobbybedroomMy suite was a 456 sq. ft. living room separated from the bedroom by a privacy door. I appreciated its amenities, including free WiFi and a kitchen with a microwave and refrigerator. Each room had a 42-inch HDTV, and the king-size bed was as comfy and plush.

In the morning, hotel breakfast is complimentary. If you stay at the hotel, you can dine at Burger Shed. The restaurant serves burgers and handcrafted shakes.

PRO TIP: Flip the master light switch on the wall when you enter the suite otherwise, you won’t be able to access lighting or the TV in the bedroom.

Burger Shed

STONE PILLAR VINEYARD & WINERY

Stone Pillar Vineyard & Winery (11000 S. Woodland St.) is nestled in the heart of Olathe. Well, technically, Olathe built itself up around the vineyard. It seems more like Olathe built itself around the vineyard, given that the property’s deed from 1865 hangs framed on the wall. 

Stone Pillar Vineyard & WineryThe five-generations, family-owned vineyard and winery produce more than 20 wines, hard ciders, and wine slushies. During my taproom visit, I discussed the winery’s history with the owner while savoring the “Thankful for Wine” $10 flight (5, 2oz pours), a wide-ranging selection of dry to sweet wines. 

wine bottlesTheir best-selling wine, Hoftoberfest, tastes semi-sweet with pineapple notes that finish crisp. I prefer full-body, dry reds, so, I was a fan of Zin XXI, which had blackberry and plum notes.

Tasting room walk-in visits are welcomed, but for groups of four or more people, they encourage reservations. If you want an in-depth “serious tour,” you need to call ahead to give the staff a heads-up.

vineyard at sunsetOutside, wine enthusiasts can take advantage of patio seating and covered seating inside a second building also available for group parties. I recommend planning your visit around the sunset hour.

PRO TIP: Live in the area? The owner is planning to relaunch Stone Pillar’s Wine Club, so inquire about it upon your arrival.

RED CROW BREWING COMPANY

Red Crow Brewing Company (1062 W. Santa Fe) is not just another Kansas brewery. The beer is just as pleasantly unique as the names they give it. Each beer is given a woman’s name chosen by the owners, a husband and wife duo. I created a beer flight of five 2 oz pours with names like Eleanor, Isabelle, and Sybil. I appreciated a Kansas Bock, Hattie, for its balanced taste and mouthfeel. 

beer flightI was impressed by the brewery’s ample space to unwind and craft beer. Locals grouped up at tables with a view of the game. Couples chatted over beer and dinner entrees from the on-site food truck, Casual Foodie.

Although I arrived a few minutes late for Happy Hour (3 pm-6 pm), it did not bother me. The drink and food menu prices were on par with what you’d pay at any brewery. Casual Foodie’s two-page menu included meal choices for every kind of eater. I ordered a soft taco trio with pork bulgogi, jerk chicken, and sweet potato. 

tacosPRO TIP: The brewery is closed Mondays, so you’ll want to plan your visit when the brewery and the food truck are open. View the hours here.

SWEET THANG & CAFÉ

Day 1’s sip-and-savor tour ended at Sweet Thang & Café (1088 W. Santa Fe), only steps from Red Crow Brewing Company. Opened in 2019, the dessert destination is incredibly popular with locals. The moment I walked in, I knew I was in the right place. “Welcome!” the staff exclaimed. Customers never stopped walking into the ice cream shop.

ice cream shop Ice cream, baked goods, and candy dominated the menu, and the place smelled like freshly made waffle cones. I opted for a double scoop of Rocky Road ice cream, but seriously, you can’t go wrong no matter your menu choice. I recommend taking a few minutes to view the Flavor Wall before committing to your ice cream order.

ice cream waffle coneNot in the mood for ice cream? Choose a hazelnut iced coffee, latte, or vanilla macchiato from the Espresso Bar menu. 

PRO TIP: The Sandwich Station kitchen closes at 7 pm, so plan ahead. Mama’s Italian with chips, anyone? View the menu here.

DAY 2

POUR COFFEEHOUSE

Rise and shine! Day 2 of the Olathe sip-and-savor tour started at Pour Coffeehouse (11120 S. Lone Elm Rd). The quaint coffee shop was bustling with customers by 8:30 am when I arrived. It was raining, and it seemed everyone wanted to warm up with a cup of Joe and breakfast.

Pour Coffeehousecoffee and giftsA quick scan of the shelves and I noticed that they sell their bagged coffee beans, so I kept it simple and ordered a tall drip coffee. Irresistible pastries stared back at me from the glass case. A warm strawberry homemade Pop-Tart and a slice of quiche tasted delightful while I watched it rain outside from a window seat. Nearby, a cabinet with jewelry, branded merchandise, and retail candles sat on display.

PRO TIP: Seating is at a premium during peak hours, so arrive early or choose a patio table on a good-weather day. Parents with kids in tow will appreciate the oversized Connect 4 game on the front lawn. 

JUNQUE DRAWER BOUTIQUE & STUDIO

You’re in for a treat at Junque Drawer Boutique & Studio (233 S. Cherry St.). Located in a restored three-floor historic home built in 1874, the owner created a sip-and-shop experience. 

Order a glass of wine or beer from the first floor’s bar and let the shopping begin. Don’t blame me if you overspend. It’s easy to do without drinking. Almost every inch of the house is filled with home decor, signs with phrases, women’s apparel, handcrafted art and jewelry, and specialty food gifts. 

kitchen supplies Continue the sip-and-savor trail fun by purchasing ready-made drink mixes, wine accessories, or drinking glasses with hilarious sayings. As you walk from room to room, you’ll notice each one is named after a woman.

What will you discover inside Blanche’s room or Pearl’s room? I immersed myself in gift options I wanted to buy for others and myself. You could easily spend an hour in the store. Suddenly, I spotted just what I wanted. It was a wall decor sign that reflected my love for travel imprinted with the phrase “Headed Somewhere.” It was coming home with me. 

giftsThe owner of Junque Drawer also owns Holiday House across the street (101 W. Cedar), which is one-stop shopping for all things festive. Thematic rooms are designed by style and color creating Christmas decor and ornaments. Wait until you see the bathroom shower filled with pillows!

See a gift you love from someone? Ask the owner to personalize it with a handwritten name or message.

Holiday House holiday giftsPRO TIP: Start on the third floor and work your way down, ending the shopping experience at the register. If you’re searching for a specific gift item, ask the friendly staff to point you in the right direction. 

PARK STREET PASTRY

A one-minute drive from Junque Drawer is Park Street Pastry (103 E. Park St.), where lovers of authentic European desserts and sweet treats go. Pastry Chef Douglas Flick’s loyal customers know they can find freshly made cinnamon rolls, a popular breakfast choice, ready to order. Park Street PastryI recommend scanning the bakery case and the menu before ordering breakfast or lunch. I was searching for lighter fare and chose a flakey scratch-made croissant filled with chocolate. The chef could be seen in the kitchen busily cooking eggs for someone’s breakfast order.

The lunch menu includes multi-layered sandwiches, salmon cake, bbq meals, and more. Sandwiches come with a classic side garden salad.

croissantPRO TIP: Don’t be surprised if they say you can pay for your order after dining in. Bring cash, or you must spend $5 for a credit card purchase.

Curious about the downtown area?  Take advantage of rentable scooter stations, and don’t miss the historic marker across the street in front of the Johnson County Courthouse. It designates a spot on the route of the Santa Fe Trail, where traders traveled. The Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop & Farm Historic Site is where travelers can purchase supplies and spend the night. Today, it’s open to museum-goers year-round.

Sante Fe Trail marker

JOE’S KANSAS CITY BAR-B-CUE

The final stop on the sip-and-savor trail led me to Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Cue (11950 S. Strang Line Rd.). When in the Kansas City area, you can’t leave without ordering award-winning barbecue, a long-standing tradition for the restaurant since 1992. The Olathe location stays busy during peak meal hours, so you can expect a short wait to order a bbq dinner or sandwiches. It’s well worth your time.

bbq restaurantThe menu includes drool-inducing sandwiches like The Z-Man Sandwich, made with slow-smoked beef brisket topped with provolone cheese and onion rings. People rave about it for a good reason. It’s filling, so consider ordering the regular sandwich instead of the jumbo portion.

I ordered the burnt ends lunch special served with (check the small menu board as you walk up to the register). You get your choice of one side dish and a fountain drink. The food is consistently good at Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que, so you can’t go wrong whether you order a rib dinner, smoke chicken, or order meat by the pound to go.

The Z-Man SandwichThe food Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que is putting out is pure kitchen magic. Do you want to try a variety of smoked meats? Order a Combo Sandwich or a Two Meat Dinner. Save room for dessert – ask about the seasonal dessert while ordering your meal. bbq burnt endsPRO TIP: Walk across the parking lot and check out The Kansas City BBQ Store to purchase bottles of barbecue sauce, dry rubs, and grilling tools to recreate your meal at home.

Who’s ready to set out on a two-day adventure through Olathe, appreciating the best wine, beer, and sweet and savory food selections the area offers? The city has a multitude of places to indulge your palette. Follow the sip-and-savor trail with your sweetheart or grab a group of friends or family and start exploring.

Cool Places to Check Out in Clay Center

September 26, 2022 by Vanessa Whiteside Leave a Comment

Disclosure: Mural Movement of Clay Center, City of Clay Center, and Grow Clay County sponsored this post. However, all opinions and photographs are my own.

The charming town of Clay Center, Kansas is one of the most welcoming communities I’ve visited. The county seat of Clay County, the town attracts tourists in search of colorful murals and day trip destinations. The community takes pride in its specialty shops, zoo, restaurants, and annual Piotique festival every September.

Clay Center Veterans ParkI had the pleasure of staying overnight in Clay Center to make the most of my visit. With a population hovering at about 4,000 people, the tight-knit community rolls out the red carpet for visitors. I arrived in town just after sunrise and parked not far from the limestone courthouse in the town square.

HAPPY HIPPIE STUDIOS

Hanging plants. Shelves of packaged granola and honey. Brick exposed walls. Pink Floyd music playing in the background. Happy Hippie Studios (815 5th Street) is a sensory overload. As blenders whirl, owner Erin Hammel, greets locals and takes their fruit smoothie and açaí bowl orders.

Happy Hippie I ordered The OG Acaí Bowl, a blend of acaí (berries of a South American palm tree) and banana topped with fresh fruit, locally sourced honey, coconut shreds, and granola. The delicious breakfast bowl was filling and a healthy alternative to a traditional breakfast. I sat at a table covered in chalkboard paint (colored chalk available!) and admired the artwork on the walls. A table near a cozy seating area sat covered with colorful stickers and board games.

acai bowlHappy Hippie Studios is more than a place where wellness-driven people come for a tasty bite. A certified yoga instructor, Hammel encourages visitors and locals to join a yoga class or enjoy on-site massage therapy, sauna treatments, and esthetician services.

Yoga MenuHammel’s drive and determination are the only things more impressive than the studios. An award-winning business owner under 30, she grew Happy Hippie from a one-blender farmers’ market stand to a flourishing business. In fact, she served 150 smoothies on opening day. No wonder her slogan is “Smoothies Make People Happy.”

PRO TIP: You’ll be impressed by Happy Hippie’s healthy menu options. Visit for lunch to create your meal from the salad bar. Hammel stocks it with fresh ingredients daily.

JAVA JUNKIES

After my two-hour drive from Wichita, I was ready for a hot cup of coffee. Java Junkies (505 Court Street) is where residents and visitors gather comfortably to chat about the day’s activities. My visit to Clay Center also coincided with the annual Piotique celebration, so the coffee shop was a buzz with chatter about the weekend’s festivities.

Java JunkiesThe town’s espresso bar and artisan restaurant are centrally located near retail shops and local businesses. I talked with the owner, Mike Peerson, about his business while he made cold brew. Multi-tasking is a skill Java Junkies employees have to master since the coffee shop is seemingly always busy.

latte of the weekThe smell of coffee permeates the air. I enjoyed the Latté of the Week selection while relaxing inside the cafe during my visit. The menu also features early morning selections ranging from scones and pecan rolls to muffins and breakfast burritos. You’ll also find heartier meals like grilled PB&J or cheese sandwiches, as well as turkey wraps on the menu.

Coffee CupI returned on Day 2 of my stay in Clay Center for a hot coffee. The line reached from the counter almost to the door while employees hurriedly served patrons. They were busy for a good reason. The 4th Annual Java Junkies T-Rex Race for charity was about to start, and race fans wanted to fuel up before watching it. (More on the race later!)

PRO TIP: Bring your laptop. They offer free Wi-Fi making it a cozy place to get work done. I felt right at home using the desk with the reading lamp.

TASTY PASTRY BAKERY & COFFEE

If you can leave Tasty Pastry Bakery & Coffee Shop (511 Court Street) with only one donut, it will be a miracle. The aroma of freshly baked pastries hits you when you enter the door. Glass displays hold stacks of homemade donuts and nut rolls. The morning I arrived, the place was packed with small groups of diners at every table. Kids approached the counter, ready to order a cinnamon roll or cookie.

PRO TIP: Tasty Pastry Bakery & Coffee Shop is open every day except Sunday. Arrive early to order the best pastry selection. The coffee is hot, and the donuts are fresh.

THE REX THEATRE

The Rex Theatre (519 Court Street) is located within a short walking distance of the café. The theatre was built in the early 1900s, and after years of sitting empty, the new owners gave it a complete overall. The fully-renovated historic theatre welcomes audiences who attend first-run movies and live community drama performances. Today, The Rex Theatre is a member of the Kansas Historical Theatre Association, a non-profit organization that promotes and facilitates the restoration of noteworthy theatres in the state.

The Rex TheatreThe 299-seat theatre is a gem in the heart of the town. It’s where many locals have come for years, noting memorable moments. Director Reneé Langvardt and her employees work hard to provide an unforgettable experience. During the summer, families enjoy Free Movie Friday. When school children are released early from school on scheduled days, the theatre plays a movie to keep them entertained.

Inside The Rex TheatreWhen the lights are up, visitors can see the theatre’s stunning architecture including ornate plaster made of horsehair. The modern seating provides a comfortable movie screening experience. Newly restored bathrooms are adorned with framed images of Hollywood stars of the past. The original tile floor and entryway harken back to an earlier time.

Historic Theatre

Bathroom TileThe concession stand is fully stocked with the movie popcorn, cotton candy, and candy selections you crave. Ask about combo deals. Adults can enjoy beer and wine.

PRO TIP: Like me, you’ll probably fall head over heels for the theatre. Look for t-shirts for sale near the concessions stand that read “I LOVE THE REX.”

THE SCHOOLHOUSE INN

Imagine my delight when I learned I would stay overnight in a renovated one-room schoolhouse on the edge of town. As a past high school teacher, the chance to do so was something I never thought possible. But then again, Clay Center is the kind of town full of delightful surprises.

The Schoolhouse InnAs I drove up to The Schoolhouse Inn, I noted the bell in the tower and the oversized windows and doors. Inside, the interior was decorated in neutral tones. The restored hardwood floors creaked as I toured the accommodations. The open living room space easily included enough seating to accommodate several guests. Original chalkboards carved with the initials of rambunctious students flanked two sides of the room.

Two bedrooms with plush queen-sized beds with end tables and armoires welcomed me. Which one would I choose? The rooms were equally inviting. The full bathroom with a modern shower included the amenities of home plus a basket of toiletries.

bedroom Although The Schoolhouse Inn did not have a kitchen, I had access to a small refrigerator and freezer, Keurig coffeemaker, and microwave. The refrigerator was filled with bottled water and soda products. Complimentary drinks and snacks made the stay unexpectedly comfortable.

Living RoomBecause The Schoolhouse Inn sits on the owner’s private property, I found it to be a peaceful and quiet setting. If you want to stay overnight in The Schoolhouse Inn, contact the owner via their business Facebook page. The inn is not listed on Airbnb, nor does it have a website.

PRO TIP: Turn on interior lighting before returning to your lodging accommodations at night. The schoolhouse looks beautifully illuminated from within, and you’ll be thankful for the night lighting.

15-24 BREW HOUSE

15-24 Brew House (426 Lincoln Avenue) is a popular place on any given day. It attracts locals and out-of-towners on the hunt for craft beer and a delicious meal. You can expect tasty, award-winning beer and heaping plates of food.

Brew HouseThe brewery is kicking out some of the area’s best beers. I ordered a four-pour beer flight to sample several brews. As a travel writer, I’ve drank quite a bit of craft beer, and I’m pleased to say that I enjoyed all of the Brew House’s selections. Peel Out, comparable to Blue Moon, lived up to the hype. The two-time National Grand Champ Belgian Wit was my favorite, followed by 1 Eye Open Tropical IPA.

Beer FlightVoted “Best Burgers in Clay County,” I wasn’t going to miss my opportunity to order the stacked and smothered Gouda Mac burger. The sandwich is a feast for the eyes. Gouda bites drip with chipotle aioli atop a burger with bacon. You won’t leave a single bite on the plate – so leave room for crispy waffle fries! Other menu options include steaks, pizzas, salads, and appetizers. View the menu.

Gouda Mac BurgerI was fortunate to get a private tour of the backroom brewing facility by Brew Master & General Manager Clint Armstrong. A few questions in, and I realized that Clint is the real deal. He cut his teeth on beer brewing like most beginners and then sought the mentorship of the pros while living in Colorado.

Fast forward years later, Clay Center is lucky to have him cranking out award-winning craft beer that easily rivals some of the best Kansas beer on the market. As we entered the tank room, he said, “Welcome to my happy place.” We’re all smiling now.

Brewery TanksWhen visiting Brew House, carve out enough time to enjoy a meal and a few beers while chatting with locals. Taproom Manager Phil Kasper is a friendly, welcoming guy eager to chat about Clay Center or beer. If the weather is nice, enjoy the newly installed patio for a view of downtown.

PRO TIP: The brewhouse serves over a dozen beers on tap, all available to go via a growler, squealer, or crowler. They do not distribute off-site, so stock up on your craft beer favorites.

SELF-GUIDED MURAL TOUR

There is a cool thing happening in Clay Center, Kansas. Some call it a mural movement! The town showcases over 25 oversized paintings by 15 professional artists from seven states for you to discover. Clay Center is exactly where you want to be if you’re a mural hunter like me.

“Wildflowers” by Mindy Allen, Junction City

The movement, established in 2020, is gaining attention. KSN’s Good Day Kansas, Wichita Times Online, and several Kansas news publications featured the town’s artistic initiative. The town’s leadership nailed it when they devised a way to drive tourism to Clay Center while beautifying it. A handful of committee members knew what they were doing when they proposed the first mural installation, leading to many more.

“Sunflower State of Mind” by Christian Stanley

You can download the interactive mural map using a mobile app that uses your phone’s GPS to guide you to each one. Prefer a paper map instead? Grab a mural group map from various stations around town – look for a map station near Java Junkies. While most of the murals are concentrated within the town’s main streets, a few outliers are also worth seeing.

“Clay Center Veteran’s Mural” by Whitney Kerr III, Elliott McAnany, and Chase Hunter.

It’s hard to pick a “favorite” as they all have endearing qualities that make them camera-ready. However, as a fan girl of Brady Scott’s murals, I was pleased to see his work on display at Utility Park & Zoo. His paintings depicting a bright-colored peacock stopped me in my tracks. The eye-catching cheetah mural enticed me to grab my camera.

Murals by Brady Scott

PRO TIP: Before starting your guided trek, make sure you’re wearing comfortable walking shoes. Remember, you won’t be able to walk to all of them as they are spread out around town. Once you arrive at a mural, use your phone’s camera to scan the QR code, providing information on the artist’s work.

UTILITY PARK & ZOO

Black bears. Lemurs. Exotic Birds. You may not think animals like these would call a small Kansas town their home, but you’d be wrong. Clay Center’s Utility Park & Zoo (4th Street & Pomeroy) has invited visitors to enjoy the scenery and animals at no cost. The ten-acre property is open daily from 9 am-8 pm.

garden fountain
The park received Better Homes & Gardens’ Highest Community Honor “More Beautiful America Achievement Award” in 1934.

The Public Utilities Commission acquired the land and zoo in the 1930s during the Depression era when the town’s residents found it difficult to pay their water and light bills. So, they decided to allow customers to work off their bills at the park by constructing natural stone walls. Today, the walls enclose a park with beautiful gardens and a zoo filled with rehabbed animals. The project is supported by PUC as a gift to the town’s residents.

birdI had the opportunity to meet various animals thanks to a guided tour by facility employees. I watched black bears dine on snacks. A lemur ate raisins from my hand. And beautiful birds like the ones pictured above chatted excitedly while we observed them. The zoo is undergoing a major renovation that includes the addition of an aviary that will become a habitat for various birds.

lemurs
A baby lemur and her mother observe our entrance into their indoor habitat.

The zoo remains open to animal seekers while the planned improvements take place. Future plans include an entrance building, splash pad, and education building.

PRO TIP: Visiting with children? Enjoy the park’s playground equipment and the walking trail west of the zoo.

GINGER’S UPTOWN

I stepped into boutique heaven when I walked through the doors of Ginger’s Uptown (721 5th Street). Ginger and the staff warmly greeted me as they took me on a store tour. Women’s apparel, accessories, home decor, kitchen gadget, and gourmet food filled the space.

jeansGinger has operated the business for 36 years providing locals and visitors a place to shop for a gift for themself or someone else. They pride themselves on carrying the best brands in the business. Nora Fleming, Brighton, Michel Design Works, The World’s Best Pan…you name it, you can find it at Ginger’s Uptown. Plus, they make shopping for their products easy if you can do so in person.

Ginger's UptownI challenge you to try leaving the store without buying something. I couldn’t do it. Home cooks will appreciate the specialty foods corner that includes fill-a-bottle olive oils. Ladies looking to add glam to their wardrobe will appreciate the clothing and jewelry selection. And women looking to purchase seasonal home decor will gasp in amazement at the displays that welcome shoppers.

specialty food giftsKnown for its wedding registry services, the store caters to those who need to pick up a gift for the bride and groom. Rumor has it that they’re on almost every local wedding registry. Ginger is the queen of ribbons and is known for creating wow-worthy gift baskets. They can also ship you 99% of the inventory, and you can shop from the store’s website to order online.

clothingThe Uptown Girls host Thursday Coffee Talk sessions on Facebook live showcasing the newest inventory. Events like All That Glitters Christmas Showcase always promise big crowds, so signing up to attend one of the sessions in advance is key.

PRO TIP: Check out the store’s private label selection of jarred gourmet foods ranging from relish to white queso dip. Look for samples to try. Don’t leave without buying handmade chocolate truffles.

CLAY CENTER COUNTRY CLUB

Famished from a full day of fun, I joined my travel contact at the Clay Center Country Club (1568 Navajo Road) for dinner. I enjoyed a glass of red wine inside the clubhouse with scenic views of the pristine 9-hole golf course. Soon, I was surrounded by locals asking about my visit to the town and my role as a travel writer. My new friends were welcoming and delightful to talk with over Happy Hour.

Clay Center Golf CourseThe dinner menu included a vast selection of entreé selections and lighter fare. A patron recommended the Chicken Fried Pork Loin, an off-menu choice. Score! It arrived perfectly cooked and paired with appetizing sides and a dinner roll.

DIECK’S CLAY CENTER LOCKER

Dieck’s Clay Center Locker is a family-owned business where those in the know shop for retail meats. Sixty cooler doors have refrigerated, pre-packaged beef, bacon, jerky, bratwurst, snack sticks, steaks, and more. Not only do they sell meat, but they also smoke it on-site. Most of their fresh meat is shipped to them from nearby Junction City, Kansas.

Meat LockerAfter a fire destroyed their old facility, the owners drew design plans for the current building on butcher paper. The converted Dollar General Store is the town’s meat locker keeping locals’ refrigerators stocked with Kansas beer and pork products. It’s also a one-stop shop for grab-and-go shopping. They carry a large selection of beer and road-ready snacks.

MORE THINGS TO DO

Dexter Park (600 Grant Ave.) hosted a car show during the Piotique fall celebration while I was visiting. However, you can find “Safari Run” playground equipment, a tank, and an outdoor amphitheater used for community performances.

car showPiotique Celebration takes place on the last Saturday of September every year. A tradition since 1936, hundreds of people turn out to watch parades, shop for food and craft vendors, play games, watch Cruise Night, and listen to live music. Expect large crowds to watch festivities downtown if the festival falls on the same weekend as homecoming.

Piotique gamesThe 4th Annual Java Junkies T-Rex Race for charity drew hundreds of spectators this year. Sponsored participants donning inflatable costumes sprinted down a city block to earn their way into the final heat. The winner earned $1,000 to donate to a charity of choice. It’s an event that is not to be missed.

sunriseI’m not going to lie. I felt a little tug on my heartstrings as I pulled out of town, leaving my new friends behind. The town’s people are welcoming, and with so much to do and see in Clay Center, it made it hard to leave.

Coffee drinkers will drive miles for a delicious latté or espresso. Luckily, the Kansas map is dotted with one-of-a-kind coffee shops catering to caffeine junkies. Each one is unique, from selling bags of beans roasted on-site to peddling books and selling pastries.

Scroll down to find a Kansas coffee shop worth visiting. What will you order once you arrive?

College Hill Coffee

AD ASTRA BOOKS & COFFEE HOUSE – SALINA

Part cafe, and partly used bookstore, Ad Astra Books & Coffee House resembles a library with tables and chairs for lounging. The relaxed atmosphere is where locals meet up for specialty coffee or tea to chat about local happenings. Exposed limestone and brick walls anchor bookshelves stocked with titles in every genre.

Also a place for families, the youngest visitors will appreciate the children’s book section and inviting gumball machine. I recommend asking about the specialty coffee of the month. Proceeds from my purchase of a Bee Kind Latté went to a local non-profit. You’ll find it difficult to leave without buying a book, t-shirt, or Kansas-themed gift.

Ad Astra

GRAVEL CITY ROASTERS  – EMPORIA

The highly-rated coffee house, Gravel City Roasters serves a long list of coffee and tea drinks. Never without a short line from the register, customers can also select breakfast muffins, cupcakes, and other pastries. All of the baked goodies are made from scratch.

Popular with residents including college students, it also serves as a retail space selling whimsical gifts. Shoppers in search of puzzles and uniquely crafted artwork are in luck.

Gravel City

FLIGHT CREW COFFEE  – MANHATTAN

Wheels up! Flight Crew Coffee, in historic Manhattan, is ready to serve you. Opened this fall, the cafe is bustling with business. And for good reason. The owner, Heather, has considered every detail to ensure your “in-flight service” is seamless.

A bit of nostalgia and a bit of class. the cafe’s interior transports you to aviation heaven. Navy blue walls, black and white prints of airplanes, and a cozy fireplace invite you to nestle up with a coffee in hand. Jazz music plays in the background.

I enjoyed a steaming chai tea with a Quiche Lorraine for breakfast. As they say, “Our Coffee Gives You Wings,” and after my first visit to Flight Crew Coffee, my mood is flying high. Add it to your morning itinerary before stepping out to do boutique shopping. View the cafe’s hours here.

TEN & TWO COFFEE – BONNER SPRINGS

I was curious about a coffee shop I heard was on the same property as a members-only automotive club, The Fuel House. Caffeine is my fuel, so I had to find out more.

Sure enough, as I drove into the gravel parking lot, I spied the sign for Ten & Two Coffee (611 W. 2nd Street). One of three locations, the Bonner Springs cafe, was inside a 100-year-old converted warehouse. The entire space was massive. The coffee bar lived up to my expectations.

Not only does Ten & Two prepare specialty drinks and drip coffee, but they also serve breakfast sandwiches and pastries. A steady flow of customers consisting of locals and out-of-towners came in the door while I enjoyed a homemade cinnamon roll and a cup of signature coffee from a comfortable couch. I spied beer on draft and a menu of specialty cocktails behind the coffee bar. Sure enough, Ten & Two transforms into a taproom after dark.

MCLAIN’S MARKET – LAWRENCE

McLain’s Market is a bakery and coffee shop known as the go-to spot for breakfast and lunch. The restaurant is located on Iowa Street and serves a steady flow of students, faculty, and visitors.

The menu features pastries, breakfast burritos, burrito bowls, and snacks prepared fresh from an exposed kitchen space. I arrived between an influx of students, so there wasn’t a line. With my order placed, I nestled into a comfy spot indoors with a view of the patio and passing students.

McLain's Market

COLLEGE HILL COFFEE – WINFIELD

I made the short drive to College Hill Coffee , in desperate need of caffeine with a side of breakfast.

The coffee shop is located in a residential neighborhood and draws locals for its relaxed vibe. People sit on patio tables on the front porch or at tables inside what is a converted old house. It feels homey and comforting, like someone invited you over for breakfast. From the breakfast options I could see from within the glass case, I chose a slice of Farmers Quiche to go with a steaming cup of cappuccino. It was made from delicious ingredients and had a flaky crust. It hit the spot.

I took time to enjoy the meal from a quiet spot inside the converted house. The walls were adorned with local artists’ work, and a small amount of retail (bagged coffee, jewelry, and artwork) was for sale. Music played from the room’s speakers, and a cool spring breeze passed through open windows.

College Hill

NORM’S COFFEE BAR – NEWTON

Having heard that Norm’s Coffee Bar was known for its menu of delicious waffle dishes, I knew I was in for a treat. It turns out breakfast dreams do come true. I chose “The One With the White Sauce” from a shortlist of options. The waffle arrived pillowy soft and warm, drizzled with vanilla custard and raspberry sauce. One bite, and I was in heaven. A large portion, I cleared my plate.

While I love to indulge in sweet waffles, I think I’ll try a savory waffle during my return visit like one made with cornbread topped with chili and cheese, aka “Ring of Fire.” The waffle options are everchanging, but you’re guaranteed to find sweet and savory options with creative toppings.

But I needed a sidekick to go with my breakfast waffles. I ordered a Dirty Chai Tea Latté. It arrived at my table in a mug so large that I had to use two hands to sip my tea. Delicious. Norm’s serves espresso, brewed coffees and blended drinks of all kinds.

Norm's

BLACKSMITH’S COFFEE SHOP & ROASTERY – LINDSBORG

Considering arriving in Lindsborg in the morning? Grab something tasty to eat and drink at Blacksmith’s Coffee Shop & Roastery. You’ll appreciate their freshly roasted coffee while seated inside the authentic, renovated blacksmith shop. I tried the popular breakfast casserole, biscuits, and gravy during my visit. I recommend asking for a side of lingonberry applesauce — it’s delicious! (Lingonberries are a mountain cranberry in Scandinavia.)

The historic building is the oldest standing building in Lindsborg, dating back to 1874. Opened as a roastery and coffee shop in 2017, it continues to serve visitors a scratch-made breakfast menu and seed-to-cup coffee. You’ll love the building’s original architecture and historic design, from brick-exposed walls to industrial finishes.

N’CAHOOTS COFFEE & SHOPPE – PRATT

There is no better way to start your day than to stop into N’Cahoots Coffee & Shoppe. As you walk into the café, you’re immediately greeted by the smell of delicious coffee and the sound of chatty visitors. The space is decorated with eclectic furniture, fancy chandeliers, and colorful artwork reminiscent of a big city coffee shop. Much of the N’Cahoots will remind you of the coffee shop from the TV show Friends.

After ordering my chai tea and a slice of Quiche Lorraine, I stepped into the back of the café into a Friends-themed lounge. While dining on my delicious breakfast, I scribbled my favorite cast member quote in chalk on the table and then read Friends trivia. Visiting N’Cahoots is an entertaining experience, unlike anything you’ll find in Kansas. It doesn’t stop there – it’s also a place to shop! Before you leave, check out the many retail items for sale, ranging from antiques to body care products.

N'Cahoots Coffee

SIGNET COFFEE – PITTSBURG

“Friends Don’t Let Friends Drink Bad Coffee” is the motto of Signet Coffee Roasters‘ owners, Dennis and Leah. The interesting part of their story, which I still can’t get over, is that they were not “coffee lovers” for much of their adult life. They admit that they didn’t know a good cup of coffee until they had one in Minnesota. It didn’t take long before they were hooked on quality coffee from roasted coffee beans. 

I visit many coffee shops when on the road, but I’ve never had such a warm reception. Dennis and Leah made me feel like a local, a regular coffee shop visitor. They took the time to talk to me about their love of coffee and baking.

I have to admit. The homemade Caramel Latte and Cranberry Orange scone were some of the best I’ve ever tasted. The scone wasn’t dry or tasteless like so many I’ve had before. It was moist with big chunks of cranberry and a light orange flavor. And don’t get me started, don’t the coffee! I regret not ordering a larger size. Plan your visit to Signet Coffee Roasters (109 N. Broadway), it’s the best place to start your day when in Pittsburg.

Signet Coffee

ROOT COFFEEHOUSE & CREPERIE – PITTSBURG

What do you get when you combine comfy lounge spaces and delicious coffee drinks? Root Coffeehouse & Creperie has mastered serving perfected drinks and breakfast items to its adoring fans. The locally-owned gathering spot attracts college students with laptops, ladies’ groups ready to gab, and parents with kids.

I devoured my latté and crêpe from a blue velvet chair at a table near a brick wall. Because it was a busy time to visit, I admired the framed photography on the wall and the succulent plants nearby, both for sale. A Little Free Library tempted me since a new read creates a delightful café experience.

Root Coffeehouse

TEREBINTH COFFEE HOUSE & ROASTERY- COFFEYVILLE

The first stop on any traveler’s itinerary in Coffeyville must be Terebinth Coffee House & Roastery (232 W. 9th), where owners Matthew and Madison Frech, and their fabulous staff, turn out delectable coffee drinks and restaurant-quality food. Inspired by a love of community, the coffee shop is a relaxing space with multiple areas to chat with locals or unwind.

Unsure of what I wanted to order initially, the café manager patiently guided me to the menu’s top selections. I ordered a London Fog (Twinnings Earl Grey Tea with foam) and a savory cheddar bacon scone. With the smell of freshly roasted coffee as the backdrop, I watched locals approach the counter to order brewed House Favorite Lattés and espresso drinks before sitting down to read their newspaper or laptop.

Terebinth Coffee House

COMMON GROUND COFFEE CO. – FORT SCOTT

Bustling with activity, Common Ground Coffee Co. (12 E. Wall St.) is the place to gather at a large table with friends or sit solo to catch up on work. During my visit, community college students intently studied behind laptops while sipping from coffee cups.

You’re guaranteed to be greeted by a friendly face behind the counter. Not always sure what I wanted to order, the employee was patient while I asked about the breakfast menu options ranging from muffins to fresh-made sandwiches.

Common Ground

OCTAGON CITY COFFEE CO. – HUMBOLDT

At my first stop in Humboldt, Octagon City Coffee Co.,  I ordered a steaming hot matcha latté. While waiting, I listened to indie rock classics and read a copy of The Iola Register newspaper. As locals came and went, I heard a woman tell the barista, “You’re awesome,” when she predicted her order before she could say it.

The café is surprisingly modern, like a coffee shop you’d expect to see in a big city, but its small-town charm makes it a sure win. Stop by to refuel on caffeine or to shop its retail shelves stocked with KC-made Messenger Coffee bags or cold brew bottles.

Octagon City

CRAFT COFFEE PARLOR – MCPHERSON

The best way to start your day in McPherson is to sip on a freshly brewed cup of coffee and enjoy a cinnamon roll at Craft Coffee Parlor (120 N. Main), a space that reminds you of a big city café. The interior of the coffee shop is designed with a modern, industrial aesthetic. They considered every detail in its design, from the restored wood floors to the artistic details of the latté art. I appreciated the paintings on display while enjoying my coffee in the good company of strangers who studied nearby or were chatting with friends.

I recommend asking the friendly employees about their high-end coffee selection and kombucha on tap. Visiting on a good weather day? Take your coffee outdoors to enjoy the view of Main Street on the front patio under string lights.

Craft Coffee Parlor

GOOD GROUNDS COFFEE SHOP & BISTRO – GOODLAND

There is plenty of restaurant options when looking for a place to dine in Goodland. For breakfast, I’d recommend driving to the edge of town to Good Grounds Coffee Shop & Bistro. The drive-thru and lobby stay busy, proving that it is one of the best places in town to enjoy a specialty coffee with breakfast.

The Vanilla Latte and Egg and Cheese Biscuit gave me the fuel I needed for a full day of exploring Goodland. If you’re searching for a substantial breakfast, check out the Daily Specials, which often include full-plate meals. The Bistro Originals chalkboard features hearty sandwiches and wraps if you want to stop there for lunch. I suggest viewing the unique artwork for sale on the gallery wall while you wait for your meal to be prepared. Free Wi-Fi is available.

Good Grounds

BREATHE COFFEE HOUSE – HAYS

I found Breathe Coffee House the perfect way to start my morning in downtown Hays. They serve “oddly correct coffee,” crepes, smoothies, and scones. The cafe’s mission is to serve as a place for people to connect, feel cared for by others, and to welcome people of all faiths and backgrounds.

As I sipped on my latté made from Kansas City roaster, Oddly Correct, I noticed that an entire wall was covered in shelves housing mugs. To join the Coffee Club, the cafe devotees pay $25 as a donation to fund outreach projects. The cafe is a non-profit that supports Dialogue Ministries.

Warm and welcoming, the cafe is a cozy place to enjoy coffee.

Breathe Coffee House

JUDEE’S COFFEE – TOPEKA

Judee’s Coffee is a coffee shop highly recommended for serving the kind of coffee connoisseurs rave about.

As I drove up to the building, I saw shoppers milling around a nearby business looking at furniture on display. Some people were exiting with full shopping bags while others were excitedly making their way inside. It was a thrift shop. Very cool. Judee’s Coffee is adjacent to God’s Storehouse, a massive store housing gently used household goods and apparel. Just my luck. I could enjoy breakfast and shop for antique glass and vintage jewelry afterward.

The barista crafted the perfect chai latté for me. The cafe smelled of freshly baked peanut butter cookies while I sipped my drink and watched shoppers peruse the shelves. Quiche, homemade tarts, and cookies sat in the pastry case, waiting for someone to enjoy. A line formed at the counter.

To my surprise, the cafe’s menu prices were quite reasonable. A brown sugar latte on the seasonal board was only $2. It was a real value because they serve Oddly Correct coffee from Kansas City. Later, I chatted with the employees and learned that the cafe’s menu prices are set low to make good coffee accessible to everyone. They refer to it as “generosity at its best.”

Judee's Coffee

THE FEATHERED NEST – BELLEVILLE

Upon arriving in Belleville, Kansas, my first stop was The Feathered Nest, a store that a friend of mine raved about as soon as she heard I was traveling to the area. It’s not a store many discover by happenchance, but one that lives up to its reputation.

A massive home interiors/decor shop with a coffee lounge is a must-visit store. As soon as I walked in, I knew my wallet was in trouble. I wanted to bring the fancy pillows, framed prints, and towering candle holders home. They also sell jars of Kansas-made gourmet foods and chef’s tools to complete one’s kitchen.

The store manager, Lynette, sat down with me to chat about the store in the coffee lounge. I sipped a specialty coffee, The Feathered Frenzy, and enjoyed a scratch-made scone from the espresso bar. As we talked, I noticed several locals sitting together in small groups, talking over coffee. Immediately, I could feel a real sense of community.

The Feathered Nest

THE SUNFLOWER – ATCHISON

A perfect day of exploring Atchison starts at The Sunflower, where the baked goods and coffee drinks are the highlight, and the welcoming customer service is a bonus. The bagel breakfast sandwich with a KC Roasterie drip coffee hit the spot as I took in my surroundings.

The SunflowerThe cafe is where locals meet to catch up about the latest happenings in town. Where travelers like me enjoy quiet time and peruse the internet using free Wi-Fi. And where you can shop for gift items from kitchen towels to home decor.

NO. 7 COFFEE HOUSE – WELLINGTON

No. 7 Coffee House in Wellington is your first stop when in town. A women-owned and operated business open Tuesday-Saturday, the coffee shop is known for its phenomenal baked goods and crafted coffee drinks.

With coffee beans sourced from Topeka’s PT Coffee, the baristas stay busy preparing traditional and specialty coffee drinks, and seasonal drink options like Bees Knees Chai keep it fun. Non-coffee drinkers will gravitate to their hot or iced tea menu.

No. 7 Coffee House is a morning hangout where locals greet one another as they walk in and discuss the day’s events. They sip coffee with dining on maple pecan scones, muffins, and sausage quiche.

No. 7 Coffee HouseThis list of coffee shops is just a handful of the ones I’ve visited across the state but worthy nonetheless to share with others. What coffee destination should I add to my travel bucket list?
