I live in KC so I would start with KC places but feel free to mention the best in your respective town.

I really like The Filling Station.  Good brew up there.  Latte land used to be my favorite and I lived across from the Plaza (Jefferson St.) one but it has slipped down the list because whenever I go there the line is redic.

that latte land is across from my place, i don't drink coffee but do like their cold drinks. and they are busy a lot.  i get mad when people in front of me order drinks that are hard to make.

my fav place would prob be high hat next to pembroke hill.

Yes, their cold drinks are good.  The folks who somehow don't have their mind made up after staring at the menu for 10 minutes also piss me off.  Or that don't know you can't stand right there and wait for your mornig cup.

I will try hihat this week.  Never been.  Good place for non-alcoholic 'paker for the early rising EMAW'er?

    The very best.
Well, everytime I'am in KC, i like the quicktrip on state line road.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

Best coffee I have ever had is from Dunkin' Donuts....and it is always the best in every city I am in.  Amazing consistency in the quality.

question for coffee lovers out there worldwide - is it the coffee shop, or the coffee?

On work days, 100% the coffee.  (More caffeine, please!)  On weekends, 95% the shop.
