Kansas City will play host to the nation’s first Specialty Coffee Week.
This is an experience in which participating coffee shops, cafés and
restaurants create unique coffee-centered activities and specials for the
public.
Local coffee shops have the opportunity to showcase what makes them unique and share their skills and knowledge of a craft beverage that has evolved tremendously in the area. An enhanced coffee experience encourages individuals to explore one of their favorite routines and the community to learn more about the local scene in Greater Kansas City.
Similar to Restaurant Weeks held across the country, Specialty Coffee Week will include discounted drinks, new concoctions, special guests at shops, and a myriad of other activities promoting and highlighting why Kansas City is a top five coffee city in the country.
Specialty Coffee Week will kick off September 15-16 with Kansas City’s second Caffeine Crawl. Events will continue through the 21st of September.
