Wow! Truffled Eggs Benedict blew me away. My first taste and I could smell and taste the truffles. The peach danish was so fresh. Full Cooper bar. The bake house is in a wonderful old building in downtown KC .
Best eggs Benedict I have ever had. Yum yum🤤 next time in KC I will be there for breakfast again
Nice little place. Has kind of a hipster vibe. Pear danish was crispy and fluffy and the filling was very nice. Coffee was good and the chai latte i got with honey cinnamon was very good. I got the ricotta hot cakes which were fluffy and reminded me of french toast a tiny bit around the edges. The carmelized banana was very good and the strawberries were good. Only downside was the plate was a giant pool of oil/butter which was not great. Hubby got the fritter which he said was good but he thought the beans were both bland and overspiced somehow so he wasn't thrilled with those.
Food was delicious and different. Charming little place downtown. Would be nice if the parking situation were better, but that's downtown for you.
I had the ricotta hotcakes and they were fantastic. Then I had a chocolate croissant and it was also delicious. My wife had some kind of fritters, maybe zucchini fritters, and said they were wonderful.
Great little place. I'm glad we found it. I would highly recommend it.
This little eclectic restaurant has a variety of brunch and lunch options. gluten-free options. Very friendly and offered great suggestions. Wife has the corn fritters which she enjoyed. She also enjoyed the orange poppy seed cake. The Australian pie and quiches were very tasty but a little small.
I love the fresh delicious meal options here. The salad and black beans and zucchini fritter platter was very delicious.
I love their coffee as well, it’s always made just the way I like it but my favourite item here is the chocolate lamington.
Cute little Aussie brekkie and brunch spot. They have both inside and outside seating. You order first, then take your number to your table of choice. The staff is super friendly and accommodating if you have questions about the menu.
The mimosas, especially the guava was a great start to the day. I never had biscuits and gravy this and whoa was it so good. The gravy was so creamy with bits of biscuits and sausages mixed in it. So flavorful too. The breakfast burrito is very big with eggs, jalapeños, potatoes, spinach, and bacon in it. It is more than fulfilling. Highly recommend stopping by.
Absolutely the best breakfast we have EVER had! Pancakes take 20 mins to make as each batch is hand made from scratch but absolutely well worth the wait. My wife and I split them along with the breakfast burrito and they both were amazing! Clean place and friendly staff...highly highly recommend!

Updated, added a star. Had a great experience most recently.

I think you should visit Banksia. I myself didn't have a great experience today, but I feel like it was an isolated incident. The menu here is really broad, offering breakfast and lunch. I wish the portions were a little heartier, so keep that in mind if you have a particularly large appetite. We came here for brunch and were looking forward to brunch cocktails which we'd seen pictured online, but there wasn't a menu we saw for this. After we took our seats in the second room, we did see a bar (unmanned). Not sure if we could have ordered cocktails, but we already purchased soft drinks. I had an iced latte which was extremely milky. It was quite unpleasant to drink. The breakfast sandwich I had was great, although I wish it had some side with it, even just a 2 oz. ramekin of fruit or a salad of sorts would have presented better on the plate. The pistachio macaroon was perfection. The gluten free orange loaf was excellent. They also have gluten free fritters (which aren't listed as GF on the menu but they made sure to let us know they were), which were very tasty. Our meal was interrupted a lot by the reserving of tables for a party coming in later; and eventually I just asked my friend if we could leave because I really felt pushed out. The reservations were for 1 and it was 12:30 but we kept getting interrupted and pushed about (literally) and it was just not worth the stress.
I’ve only done take out, but the corned beef sandwich is amazing. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!
