A review from someone passing through: We were on our way up north, passing through KC, and decided to stop for some coffee and lunch. A bit bored of Starbucks and chain fare, my wife found this interesting spot a little out the way. It's about a 5 minute drive from the interstate if you're a traveler like us, but very much worth it. What we found was more than a coffee shop. It was a community center supporting diversity, belonging, and goodwill. I wish that we came through this area more often so that I could say we'll be back soon. The pressed sandwich was delicious and the cold brew was perfect. Thank you Blendwell staff for a very enjoyable pit stop.
Attended for a private party. Man that place was nice for that. I didn't know it existed. Nice work staff and owners!
If there was a zero star option, that would have been my choice!
Great tasting sandwiches & a sweet staff to help you! Check it out if you are in the area.
Went in and got a white ice mocha and granola pastry. It was so good and the ladies there were super kind and made me feel welcomed. Definitely recommend! 🫶😊
Blendwell has great coffee drinks and others at lower prices than the “other” shops. The cafe is part of the Community Service League that helps citizens in need in the Independence area. They have seasonal drinks, pastries & monthly celebrations: Black history month, book readings, meet the author, live music etc.
5 stars in my book, not only is the coffee delicious, the food is good and the employees are so nice! Plus it feels good to get your guilty pleasure coffee without the insane Starbucks prices. ordered a coffee, muffin, and biscuits and gravy, and I spent under 10 bucks! Plus a relaxing environment that is spacious and clean.
A atmosphere is a very tranquil one. Everyone is so friendly & down to earth. I really wish they were open a little longer on Saturday but otherwise I really like this place.
Very nice little place in a neighborhood I grew up in.
Good coffee good service
Very clean and cute café! Thanks for recommending the wild berry smoothie—it was very good!
Great atmosphere, and friendly staff.
LOVE the coffee, LOVE the mission
It’s a little out of the way BUTTTT TOTALLY WORTH IT! The customer service was great! The ladies that took our order were helpful and recommended the “kitchen sink” pizza, and it was AMAZING!!!
Had to get my latte remade. Thought it was the milk but no it's the espresso. This is without a doubt THE WORST coffee I have had within the Kansas City metropolitan area. It tastes like pennies, its watery (no crema), is instantly bitter and sticks to your tongue. Had a panini from here once too that was miserably disgusting and burnt tasting. Don't know how this place is in business still.
First time. Went through drive thru and staff were friendly and food was delicious and well prepared. Good first impression.
We came in for some coffee and let me just say it was so clean and we got our coffee fast and the quality of the coffee was just great I 100% recommend
As a resident of West Independence, I can't begin to express how nice it is to have BlendWell in the community! They provide quality coffee and food and it's just such a great place to have available in this part of town. I love that the CSL was behind it, and it makes me feel good about what my money is going to. I love the vision that is behind this place and I hope it stays for long.
We’ve tried twice the fall coffees flavors are watery girls at the window are very slow and not polite more concerned with horsing around while you wait in line for 20 min honestly we will not be back unfortunately because we live so close Starbucks will enjoy are business
Super friendly, delicious drinks & a great space to meet up.
