Homer's Coffee House Reviews

Small town coffee shop with a big town attention to quality. You have to respect that.

The vibe is great, the coffee is outstanding and the employees are kind.

So yesterday was my first time and I love it! The mexican mocha and butterscotch scone was the best food I have put in my mouth in a long time! My barista made the scones and put a little heart on my coffee!!! I plan to come back soon!

Great service and lots of room if you need to do any work on a laptop. Very friendly.

Our first time going there on our wedding anniversary it was a fun place to listen to live music

Great coffee and atmosphere. Parking can sometimes be an issue, but worth stopping in.

This is my go to coffeeshop. Staff are all very friendly and find myself going here when I need to focus and knockout hw and other tasks.

Nice little hole in the wall coffee shop! It is super cozy, and has very good coffee and pastries! The atmosphere is nice, and is perfect for meeting up with friends or working a bit on a laptop. Parking is relatively easy. Never too crowded but also not awkwardly empty. I go here before work some days and am never disappointed.

The evening was cool. Drove in to watch a friend play the cello. Overall experience, Good

I absolutely love Homers. The staff is outstanding and I consider them friends. The seating along the wall is the perfect height with the tables for computer users. However, there is one major problem in the summer. They will not turn on the air conditioning. They have no central air. They have 2 wall units on the east wall. They say if they turn them on they will drip on the paintings they sell that are on the wall. I have been coming here since 1996 and have never seen one sold. All they have to do is move 3 paintings. They also will tell you the air conditioning units will drip on the customers. It's 96 degrees outside and 76 degrees in here. It averages 77 to 78 degrees in the summer. The staff will tell you people complain about the heat every day. Yet the Owner will do nothing to correct the problem and make it comfortable for the customers. I don't get it. I have left here many times to go to a competitor of there's and avoided this place in the summer due to this problem. I have to drive much farther to the nearest coffee house I like. I know I am not the only one. I would rather come here.

Love this place! Great lattes, and they usually have entertainment.

Pleasant, quiet atmosphere with a large stage for music. But if you're looking for a great coffee, go just about anywhere else. Worst coffee I've had in KC. Not only was the taste awful in the espresso I had, but grounds covered the bottom of the cup.

Additionally, the staff, while friendly, aren't knowledgeable, capable baristas.

This place is a fine eatery, but as a coffee shop, even Starbucks is much better.

I had a really lovely banana smoothie. The service was wonderful. The live band packed up early and the server volunteered to sing for me. The barista made several coffee recommendations, was very friendly and knowledgeable. Upon sitting in their leather corner seat I found a stray cheerio and was informed it was now mine and also free. Their Homer's original blend drip coffee is strong and delicious also.

This place rocks.. Very friendly and always smiles.. Coffee is amazing..

Dont try lunch!!! You get nothiing on your sandwich for 5 bucks and nothing on the side! Blt was out if tomatoes..serced us anyway..bacon so thin you cant see it and avacado was actuallt a spread..barely any

Very laid back place to enjoy a coffee and live music in a Friday evening with my husband.

Great little place to grab a cup of chai and chat with a friend!

Great little spot to stop in. Decent variety and pricing.

Nice, local coffee place. Live music on the weekends. Good service.

Staff is friendly and helpful. Lots of seating for groups of any size. Seems like a good meeting place. The iced tea is very good.

Best chai tea latte I've had short of an Indian restaurant. Great place to read a book or hang out with friends.

Always fast and friendly service. Go for the Mexican Mocha, can't go wrong.

Love the chai lattes, also great coffee. Cheerful staff, good atmosphere. Nice place to see local artists' work.

Excellent coffee, cozy atmosphere. Service was prompt and friendly. Would return on a regular basis. 11/10 amazing

Great atmosphere. Great coffee. Exceptionally clean restroom.

The girl behind the register just looked at me. No good morning, no may I help you? No nothing. Just staring blankly at me. The barista was 100% focused on her conversation with a delivery guy, so the lady in front of me and myself waited an extra 5-7 minutes because she couldn t multi-task. Pretty amazing to turn your back on customers and have a long conversation that has nothing to do with business. Nonetheless, won t be back.

Friendly staff. Lattes are excellent. Great place to visit. But otherwise just a regular coffee shop.

Very friendly staff. Feels more like your neighborhood coffee house rather than many of the coffee shops downtown. Awesome for families. Gary, Chloe, Vanessa, Glenn... All provide great service.

Come for the coffee and stay for the music! Live music by local artists on the weekends!!

Good coffee and environment, didn't expect to have a show with a lice band, it was really nice and we got to spend more time enjoying our coffee because my two year old son was entertained.

Great coffee and a great atmosphere. We always go to have good conversation

Such an awesome local coffee shop. Good coffee makes good lattes. The pastries are from local places as well. They also have ice cream there, so you can get affogatos there. I hear they even have local music at times. Parking can sometimes be tricky, but there is a lot across the street next to torrador restaurant that usually has an open spot. Recommend the thai supreme!!

Great coffee shop. Had several trips and it never disappoints.

Great place to grab a coffee and work or study. Ample room. Recommend the Mexican Mocha. Espresso is good but not great.

I really enjoyed my visit to Homer's, it was very relaxed and a pleasant atmosphere. The staff made me feel welcome. The hot cocoa I ordered was merely OK but the total experience was great.

Excellent Cafe Au Lait! 2 Medium coffee drinks total under $9.00! Great place to sip and chat! Adults of all ages come here.

Great coffee, and a nice atmosphere with live music.

Nice atmosphere. Look up the info on their website for when they have live music.

Great place to meet up, occasionally have live music....the meximocha keeps me coming back

This is a hidden Gem among coffee houses in the area. Skip the Starbucks down the street and head here!

Even though it can get crowded, and the parking lot is IMPOSSIBLE to navigate, it is worth it!

The staff here is always over the top friendly, and they make a great cup of joe. They also offer ice cream if someone in your party isn't a coffee drinker. I wish there was more seating inside, as it is very cozy. The outdoor seating is limited, but refreshing.

A great place to go and get work done during the day. Even though it's busy, service is quick and there's always a place to sit that isn't too loud. They also have live music nights which are a blast!

Some of the best coffee around Kansas City. The baristas are friendly and helpful. A definite must if you are in the area.

Best coffee, friendly staff, and quiche if you are early enough!

I've had three great experiences here. Unfortunately tonight the customer service was sub par. The barista did not acknowledge my wife or I for 3 minutes and it wasn't busy at all. We left without buying anything.

Lovely time listening to the JCCC students play Jazz! Thank you Homers for hosting that! A time full of Joy! Thank you to all the students!

Welcoming environment, great people, great lattes, free WiFi.

Watched a concert here. Great place. It was packed for this concert.

I had not been to Homer's in months. Dave remembered me by my name as I walked in the door; I had to ask him for his. The shot-in-the-dark the beautiful barista prepared for me was perfection.

This is a nice little gem in the middle of suburbia! Always serve high quality coffee and the baristas are always very pleasant.

Great service and good coffee! Parking can be a pain but it's worth it!

I came here for the first time a few days ago and I had to come back while I'm still in the area. This is such a cute coffee house with tons of natural lighting and lot's of seating and outlets. I ordered an iced angel caramello both times and had the coffee cake the first time. The customer service is also great and I saw on their website that they host a Bible study here on Sundays which is really cool!

My coffee and good was amazing!! But parking was bad.

It's always good when I come here. Every single time!!!

Great experience! Their tables are socially distanced, so all are available. The only awkward experience was that, in contactless paying, the tablet is on the opposite side of the screen, so they ask you how much you would like to tip.

They always treat me well and their latte making skills are amazing.

Love their iced tea, of all things. Very quiet with plenty of space to work. They are a Christian based establishment but play the most excellent folk/indie music most of the time that I've been there.

Good Americano, nice price, great views of Downtown OP.

An excellent place to study, read, meet with friends, and enjoy a fine cup of coffee. The staff is friendly and attentive. There is plenty if seating. The bathrooms are very clean. An excellent coffee experience.

Coffee shop, friendly staff for the most part. Coffee was what was needed for the beginning of the day. They have pastries and some more savory types of selections (quiche from what I could see.) live music during the weekends. The seating area is equipped with various types of chairs and tables and benches.

It's a cozy place to meet friends and have a cup of coffee. You never know what other event might be happening there, but it's always interesting. Recently remodeled/updated.

Great mixture of good coffee, great music, and relaxed atmosphere
