Reviews for Happy Gillis in Kansas City, MO
This neighborhood cafe can do no wrong. In my visit, this place caters to art kids, the proletariat to affluent, fist dates,... families, friends who brunch, and solo diners (me) who appreciate chef-owned places. Pictured: SMOKED SALMON TOAST - pastramispice, horseradish cream, arugula, pickled red onions, soft egg. Get it. Read more
Tuckaway just north of the city in a beautiful brick building, Happy Gillis is a delightful, small breakfast joint. Went there... on Saturday morning wasn?t too busy. I ordered two eggs toast bacon and split an order of biscuits and gravy with my sister.Gravy was half sausage and half mushroom, I think I like the mushroom best. Forcibly priced and friendly staffed with highlyrecommend Gillis Read more

We stopped here twice in our stay from Friday-Sunday because we enjoyed it so much. We ordered biscuits and gravy that we... quickly became obsessed with, hence why we came back for a second breakfast. My husband ordered a Bloody Mary which was alsodelicious. It is a great breakfast spot, with quick and kind service and a fun atmosphere. Oh, and order the bacon. Read more
First time dining at Happy Gillis. What a gem. Small menu, but adequate. The breakfast combo plate with biscuits and gravy and... scrambled eggs was delish, and more than I could eat in one sitting. They served an interesting but delectable blend ofMessenger coffee in locally handcrafted ceramic mugs. Service was excellent. Restaurant was clean, cozy and chic. Now I know whyit?s one of my girlfriend?s favorite brunch spots in the city. Can?t wait to return. Read more
The best breakfast place in KC! look no further if you want a classic breakfast joint in a homie environment serving the best... breakfast food in the city! Where do I start? Location: perfect. Small little joint (seats 30 max maybe?) In charming littleColumbus park. We got there right when they opened at when we sat down there was about 5 other parties waiting. So if your goingto eat here get here early unless you wanna wait! Service was good! Not great, just good. Always tough to tell with the maskson (facial expressions and whatnot) but the vibe from the employees felt a bit "alright hurry up and order". Whatever theservice lacks, the food makes up for it times 50. The BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH ID EVER HAD. You wouldn't believe me if I told youit was just eggs, cheese, bacon, sauce and bread. But they nail the quality of the ingredients and they cook them extremelywell. The bacon was off the charts good. My wife ordered the biscuits and gravy which was also absolute fire. Definitely on the"my friends are coming into town, where do I take them?" List. Amazing! Read more
Remarkable locally owned restaurant with an old-time vibe, but with hip and fun food. Can't wait to go back. The egg sandwich... with bacon aioli is to die for, and the Colombo Burrito is amazing. Read more
