Pour it up

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

Known as the bold and courageous leaders of the zodiac, you emulate Cafe Cà Phê’s drive and passion when it comes to advocating for what you believe in. Plus, the bright colors from its dragon logo allude to the fiery personality of this fire sign.

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.

Libra: Parisi Coffee | Sept. 23-Oct. 22

With locations both in MO and KS, Parisi Coffee is as balanced as you are. You love being charmed, and its coffee will do just that with its specialty roaster + minimalist cafe architecture.

Scorpio: Oddly Correct | Oct. 23-Nov. 21

The gray, brick-lined coffee house nestled away from downtown KC alludes to the dark and discreet qualities you possess. Its pour over, paired with the skull koozie, sums up your mysterious aura.

Sagittarius: HITIDES Coffee | Nov. 22-Dec. 21

As an adventure seeker, you’ll be able to take a quick getaway from city life and relax in a tropical oasis at HITIDES Coffee. Your need for constant change will be fed with its continual seasonal menu additions.

Capricorn: Mildred’s | Dec. 22-Jan. 19

With breakfast options, you can’t go wrong with this practical spot. With how hardworking you are, you’ll be pleased to hear this spot has pretty fast Wi-Fi (perfect for remote working).

Aquarius: Second Best Coffee | Jan. 20-Feb. 18

The rustic setting paired with a cycling theme encapsulates the eclectic personality you possess. Differ from the normal coffee order and get a Grin & Tonic to match your free spirit.

Being an introvert, you need a quaint spot to recharge your social battery. This tiny house provides the perfect escapist moment for you to relax with a cup of coffee.
