Core Coffee & Eatery

When the beaten path needs to be walked off of, you find places like this. A nice gem to find yourself sipping on some coffee or eating a nice handmade sandwich. The atmosphere and staff are paired well with the menu they have on offer with great syrups to spice up your latte or mocha. Today was a White Mocha w/ Blackberry and Caramel plus a Turkey w/ pesto croissant. I'd say wander around a bit and when you find yourself thirsty or hungry, just stop in and take a break

One of my favorite places to go for my breakfast sandwiches and lunch. Everything is made to order so if you go in once it gets busier the wait is longer but it’s 100% worth it. The coffee is outstanding and the owners are some of the nicest hardest working people you’ll ever meet.

6/1/2025: amazing! CORE COFFEE - KC MO. Delicious coffee; the barista (Deana, co-owner with her husband, Eric) makes incredibly good espresso & matcha drinks. She can make anything! Food - cooked by Eric - is wonderful. Great hang-out spot. Lots of locals / regulars, but they welcome everyone. Support small business!!!

Great little place for an artist to relax, grab some nourishment, and be inspired by the decor. Friendly staff that made for a welcoming atmosphere. I particularly liked the breakfast English muffin sandwich with strawberry jam instead of the Chipotle mayo, bit of sweet and savory.

You may call us creatures of habit, we found this amazing coffee shop in KC on our first full day there and when I say it was healing, I mean it. We had full intentions on finding a few local coffee shops during our stay but after visiting @corecoffeekc we knew we had found where we needed to be. The relaxing chairs, quiet atmosphere, friendly and personal owners (Deanna and Eric) and slow pace was exactly what we needed. The core breakfast was Dana’s go to and mine the avocado toast. The coffee is incredibly flavor forward, meaning you don’t just get sugary coffee but rather can taste the flavor and coffee mingling together. I think my favorite had to be the brown sugar cinnamon which Deanna makes the syrup in house! It is like a hug for your insides. So warm and comforting. Deanna remembered our names and even took time to sit and get to know us and that truly meant so much. If you’re in KC make a stop by Core Coffee, it’s truly worth it, believe me. #coffee #corecoffee #kcadventures #kc #mo

This cozy little coffee shop has quickly become our favorite! We have been on a kission to find the perfect coffee place for us so we have tried many of them. The food menu is limited but you can get a traditional breakfast and a wonderfuk cup of coffee. It is fairly quiet and peaceful and comfortable in the cute Pendleton neighborhood.

Great little shop in a beautiful neighborhood! The owner, Deana, was the absolute nicest and made my iced latte absolutely perfect! The space is very cozy and welcoming. I could sit here all day with a good book. Highly recommend!

I ordered vanilla latte. For service and atmosphere alone I’d rate this place a 5. Outside seems a fun haven with pillows on a bench, cute rustic touch of interior door placed on top of a glass pull door. Inside is an open space with comfy couches and a raised section where people can sit and mingle or work, sort of like a mezzanine. There’s a community board by the utensils/condiments table against the wall. Lots of live plants around that give the space its haven feel. There’s owner Deana who is very warm and friendly. We chatted our way about her shop in a community that is developing. She greets everyone knowing their names and complimentary of everyone that really makes their day. First visit here in Kansas and I absolutely love the people and you feel pride of community as shown by the locals hanging out at this coffee shop. See you again Deana for sure!

Deana is absolutely amazing. The avocado toast has the perfect flavor and consistency that I needed. Smells like northern California in here. Feels like home and I am in love her latte making skills!!

This place is so cute.. and so good! Love the relaxed vibe, especially with some Fleetwood Mac playing in the background. Their avocado toast is 🔥 and probably the best white mocha latte I’ve had. 10/10
