Our local coffee scene is brewed strong. Each spot offers celestial flavors + a distinct ambiance that keeps Kansas City buzzing. If you were to think of these unique shops as zodiac signs, here’s how they would align.

Aries: Cafe Cà Phê | March 21-April 19

Taurus: Monarch Coffee | April 20-May 20

As a lover of luxury + beauty, you’ll feel right at home at Monarch Coffee’s aesthetically pleasing cafe. After all, nothing screams opulence like sipping coffee from minimalist glassware in an earthy wallpapered room.

Gemini: Messenger Coffee | May 21-June 20

Your extroverted nature suggests you tend to get along with different types of people. From coffee to lunch options, Messenger Coffee has something on the menu to cater to everyone. Plus, it’s only fitting to assign this spot to you considering your sign is ruled by Mercury, the planet of communication.

Cancer: Broadway Café | June 21-July 22

The sentimental + emotional nature of your sign is the perfect match for Broadway Café, Kansas City’s oldest locally owned roasting company. Pair your classic latte with a baked good for all the homey vibes.

Leo: Café Corazón | July 23-Aug. 22

With “corazón” translating to “heart,” this spot is a perfect fit for the warm, loving nature Leos possess. These lions are anything but cowardly, making sure to let their presence be known — similar to both of Café Corazón’s stunning murals.

Virgo: Café Equinox | Aug. 23-Sept. 22

The botanical cafe in a greenhouse sums up Virgo’s practical + grounded qualities. As an earth sign, it sure doesn’t hurt to nurture those roots with the company of a plant or two while working at one of its cozy indoor seating spots.
