Reviews for Banksia - Downtown in Kansas City, MO
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 socreamy 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. Read more
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 alsodelicious. My wife had some kind of fritters, maybe zucchini fritters, and said they were wonderful. Great little place. I'mglad we found it. I would highly recommend it. Read more
Meat roll was spiced just right and flavorful. The flourless cake was surprisingly delicious and went well with the tea. I... enjoyed the atmosphere there and the ease of finding a comfortable place to sit to dine. Will have to come back to explore theother items. Read more
Great and chill brunch spot. I ordered the biscuits and gravy with a lavender latte. The biscuits and gravy were a large portion... and tasted amazing - probably the best biscuits and gravy I've had. The chai latte also tasted great and satisfied my cravingfor it. Overall, great service and food to enjoy with a group of friends. Read more
Great local spot! For my first visit, I asked the very friendly woman behind the counter for suggestions - and she had some... great ones. I went with the Corned Beef sandwich with - get this - pickled watermelon. Verdict is in - I don?t know why wehaven?t ALWAYS put pickled watermelon on Reuben sandwiches. Hands down best Reuben I?ve had, and it?s one of the bestsandwiches I?ve had - period. I?m a 26 year restaurant industry vet, and I?m way too particular about all things restaurant. I?ll definitely be back to Banksia soon to check out another unique selection. Great work, Banksia! You?re doing it the rightway. Read more
Awesome place to get breakfast. Love the vegetarian options. Great croissant, great latte. (Caramel with almond and mocha) We... parked by the library and walked down to the cafe. Read more
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! Cleanplace and friendly staff...highly highly recommend! Read more
