A Guide to Olathe Coffee Shops

Sweet Tee’s Coffee Shop

Nestled in the Crossroads Shopping Center, this hallmark among Olathe coffee shops offers guests a warm and cozy atmosphere underscored by comfy couches and armchairs, wooden tabletops, a colorful tile-wrapped front counter, yellow walls adorned with local artwork and a massive craft mug collection, and the occasional special event. The homey decor serves as an accomplice to delicious coffee beverages made with fresh locally roasted beans, as well as teas, fruit smoothies, and baked goods (vegan and gluten-free options available).

While a better environment for productivity would be difficult to imagine, aside from optimum functionality, the attention to detail that has gone into designing Sweet Tee’s with a delightful balance of charm and utility makes it an easy go-to for daytime meetings with colleagues, long overdue coffee dates, or solo study sessions.

POUR Coffeehouse

POUR Coffeehouse is an aesthetically gifted gem showcasing a bright bohemian ambiance dappled with earthy tones set against minimalistic walls, chic furnishings, adorable little trinkets, trendy light fixtures, and amenities for remote work. Though the friendly folks behind the counter here are more than capable of making tasty takes on your usual caffeinated favorites, consider trying a flavorsome house special like the Honey Cinnamon and Cardamom Vanilla Bean lattes. When it comes to food, they have on hand an assortment of scrumptious pastries, desserts, breakfast burritos, and quiche.

Park Street Pastry

Tucked inside the corner base unit of a gorgeous brick building just down the road from City Hall, Park Street Pastry serves fine European-style pastries and cakes amidst upscale countryside digs accentuated by ample wooden furnishings, elegant ceiling panels, earnestly stocked bookshelves, and touches of greenery. There’s no better setting to pair your morning delight with decadent delicacies such as chocolate croissants, fruit tarts, Nutella stuffed chocolate chunk cookies, cinnamon rolls, and this list could go on and on.

Comic Coffeehouse

Located in an unassuming strip mall on Ridgeview Road, this recently opened gem is a relaxed hangout combining comic book and coffee culture; that being said, the staff naturally maintains a tempting selection of comics, coffee beverages, and baked goods.

Scooter’s Coffee

Scooter’s Coffee is a drive-thru franchise that has been serving world-class coffee for more than 20 years. The menu features an array of specialty espresso beverages, single-origin coffee, fruit smoothies, Red Bull Infusions, Cold Brew, baked-from-scratch pastries, and savory breakfast options ranging from breakfast burritos to hot sandwiches. The Caramelicious is their signature drink, you can’t go wrong with ordering this rich, velvety, caramel treat.

This rapidly blossoming java business started out in 1998 as a single drive-thru coffeehouse in Bellevue, Nebraska clinging to the following principles: find a great location and stay committed to high-quality drinks, speed of service, and a BIG smile. Since those humble beginnings, Scooter’s has grown to over 300 locations in 21 states across the nation!
