Been here many times and never make me disappointed. Staff are very friendly and helpful, they introduced a lot of new drinks for me every time I come. Good drinks and great atmosphere in KC Downtown.

Fast Service and friendly staff. The space is on the smaller side with a bright interior design/paint that allows the space to feel rather large. With booth like seating there is plenty of space to lounge to talk or table to work on a laptop. Additional seating is outside when the weather is permitting and the area is open with a slight awning for rain coverage. Additionally Fat Bee Cafe is on the same street as the KC Street Car for east travel access. Will happily be coming back and looking forward to using this space as a study zone and trying the food options they have available.

went there today, order a brule latte (idk if I spell that correctly) which is something quite similar to what you can find in a Vietnamese restaurant ( ca phe sua ) surprisingly, it tastes better than a ca phe sua, 100% recommend for coffee lovers, 101% would go back

I come here frequently after getting groceries, one lady remembers me now and knows exactly what I order. I tried something new and it was delicious, I went to reorder it today and I accidentally ordered a tea instead of a latte. I did not like the tea and they made me a new drink even though it was my fault. I love this little shop! The Brown Sugar Boba Latte is my favorite. It is a small shop in downtown, so there arent a lot of places to park, which is to be expected. Good thing I walk everywhere. :)

Super unique spot. Ordered a creme brulee iced coffee with boba. Delicately crafted, a but expensive but very flavorful. Tables outside could be a wipped up a bit.

We went here after other places were closed for the 4th of July. I got the Pineapple Hibiscus tea with no boba and it was really good. I don’t like iced tea, but this was more flavored than that.
