This fall marks our 16th annual Caffeine Crawl in our hometown of Kansas City! While our spring Crawl puts the spotlight on shops and roasters in the city, the fall edition is our homage to the incredible growth of the coffee community throughout the greater KC metro.
On November 7–8, eleven different routes will stretch from Blue Springs to De Soto and South KC to the Northland, showcasing more than 30 locally owned coffee and tea businesses. This year’s lineup brings plenty to explore: new shops and roasters, extended coffee sessions with deeper dives into the craft, lunch-focused routes with well-timed food stops, dual stops featuring multiple coffee experiences, and much more. Plus, we’ll gather Saturday evening for a special event hosted by StoneX Specialty Coffee.
With eleven routes winding through communities across the metro, this Crawl is about more than great drinks—it’s a chance to experience just how diverse and exciting Kansas City’s coffee scene has become. Whether you’re a longtime coffee enthusiast or simply caffeine-curious, each stop includes a coffee or tea sample paired with a presentation, demonstration, or behind-the-scenes experience that connects you directly with the people and businesses shaping KC’s coffee culture.

Caffeine Crawl is a guided tour celebrating local and independent coffee shops, tea houses, roasters, and other craft beverage businesses. As the country's leading event of its kind, each route features a unique lineup of participating businesses with its own schedule and experience.
At every stop, you'll enjoy a featured sample drink while learning directly from the people behind the bar through demonstrations, presentations, and conversations about coffee, tea, craft beverages, and small business. Each visit includes time to ask questions, browse the shop, and connect one-on-one with baristas, owners, roasters, and other industry professionals.
Unlike a typical café visit—where long lines, busy equipment, and the pace of service can make meaningful conversations difficult—Caffeine Crawl creates a relaxed, welcoming environment where those connections happen naturally. We bridge the gap between guests and the people crafting their favorite drinks, giving participants an insider's look at the passion, knowledge, and stories behind every cup.
Participants travel in their own vehicles while following a dedicated route leader throughout the experience, making it easy to explore multiple neighborhoods and discover new favorite spots in a fun, organized way. Learn more about the Caffeine Crawl experience here.
