My first time in Cafe Corazon did not disappoint! I got cafe con Bombon, a delicacy often found in Spain where my wife is from. It tasted very similar and brings back great memories of our visits there. Highly recommend. I loved the cranberry lemon muffin, but did not enjoy the chorizo burrito as much as I hoped. Overall I do love this joint and I will be back!

Incredible cafe! Definitely a favorite. Me & hubs stopped by on a Sunday morning & the line was long but it's worth the wait. Just do it. Don't let the long line keep you from experiencing the awesomeness. It moves fast so just suck it up. You will not be disappointed. • Must try: Horchata Latte, Churro Latte, Rajas Tamales, Beef Empanadas, Fugazzeta Empenadas

Great coffee - The Aztec Mocha was wonderful! Great service, great atmosphere, prices and decor. I tried both the Chicken Mexican Tamal and and the Chicken Argentinian Empanada - both were okay. Not flavorful at all as I usually would have it from other places that I've tried them, including the countries themselves. Either way, not enough to remove a star from overall experience. Good place to go with your computer for some light work or with a group of friends.

Café Corazón – Crossroads is a gem. My wife, daughters, and I stopped in for breakfast and loved everything (because we tried just about everything). I had traditional yerba mate with the mountain of leaves needing to drink through a bombilla straw, my wife had the latte flight, daughters had an acai smoothie and Chappell Roan themed drink and we all shared the mocha flight. The savory bites (empanadas, tamales) and the pão de queijo had that perfect balance of warmth, texture, and Latin-inflected comfort and bursting with flavor. The space is vibrant and intentional, blending cultural influences beautifully, and the inclusive, welcoming vibe made us feel right at home. Great drinks, amazing food, warm staff — next time we are in KC we’ll be back! If you’re in Kansas City and want more than just a “coffee shop” — if you want a place that offers flavors, culture, and community — Café Corazón is it. Highly recommend!

Personally, we didn’t like the drinks. We thought they were going to taste good, but the flavors are a bit strange. At first, the combinations sound like a good idea, but they’re actually quite exotic. I also think there’s a lack of variety in the pastries. The service was super friendly, and the place is calm—you can go there to chat or to work.
