New atmosphere with great food and a great experience on the Plaza. It is nice to still be able to go to a locally owned place.

Wonderful venue, love the staff

Great breakfast and better patio. A great spring and fall eatery.

This is one of my favorite date restuarants. Every guy I have dated for the last five years has had to pass the "Classic Cup" test. If he can order dessert and coffee that I like, he gets another date ;) Of course, it's pretty easy to do since I have never had a bad experience there. I can even remember having dinner there one night and getting to witness a proposal! It is a real gem!

We settled on this location after walking the plaza area up and down. I was pleasantly surprised. I had the swordfish with a mango salsa, which was fantastic. Additionally, I sampled other plates on the table which included: the beef medallions, filet mignon, and stuffed salmon. Everything was fantastic and I will certainly be back!

The Classic Cup is a good place to spend a leisurely weekend morning reading the paper and people watching. The food is good and the portions are appropriately sized, unlike the mountain of food that you get at some of the chains these days. Service is friendly and attentive. In warm weather, ask for a seat on the sidewalk or out back on the patio.

The Classic Cup Caf is one of my new favorite lunch spots on the weekends. This is a great place to relax, have great food, and exchange your week's highlight with your friends or significant other.

I'm going to rave the Duck Risotto at this place. The duck is pan fried, served over risotto, drizzled with duck broth, and a hint mango/cranberry/blueberry sauce. If you haven't tried duck before, this is a great place to try it.

Awesome food! Custom roast coffee for Classic Cup made by Roasterie that is to die for! Desserts are wonderful and staff is always very courteous! Great for brunch, lunch, and early dinner. I personally love this place for coffee and dessert. Great decor and ambience!

Outdoor seating on a perfect evening weather-wise, great food, beer and service. The goat cheese ravioli was excellent, the chicken sub very good and the bread terrific. Highly recommended.

Recommended to this place by family while visiting. It's very quaint and the patio is great! I would highly recommend the soups. We tried the curry cauliflower and chicken tortilla and both were delicious! Very enjoyable fall afternoon.

The food was excellent! Definitely recommended!

My wife went for lunch with several employees visiting from out of town (ahhhh, the joys of corporate dining per diems). The lady's all raved about the soups, salads and sandwiches. I did get leftovers (apparently a table full of women are incapable of finishing their meals!?!), which were quite good, even several days later. I guess I really need to try the place out for myself. Maybe even breakfast with the family. Update - Went for breakfast with my lovely wife. Thoroughly enjoyed the chilequiles, excellent coffee. Highly recommended.

I had flat iron steak with potato cake, asparagus spears and green beans with some mini grapes. Very good and the service was superb. It's small but we didn't have to wait on a Saturday evening. Half or more of patrons ate on one of two patios.

This is my favorite place for breakfast in KC, and the lunch menu is great as well. But the best part of Classic Cup is dining on the front patio. Observe Plaza excitement and crowds while sipping on high quality imported coffee. For my money, they serve the best Eggs Benedict in town, and their signature pancakes -with a slightly tangy zing- are as big as your face.

We stumbled upon The Classic Cup and decided to try it. We loved it! The service was top notch, the food exceeded our expectations.

A great place for lunch, brunch or breakfast. Sit on the sidwalk if weather permits. They do everything here well, but the pancakes are SPECIAL!

Worst dining experience I have ever had. Waited over 30 minutes for my meal when larger parties around me were served their drinks and food before my two top even though we were there long before they arrived. My duck came out cold and raw in the center as the veggies were dried out by the overhead heat lamp (I've worked/owned restaurants so I know when food is fresh and when it's been sitiing out too long).



Our server said that it can't be cold but still took my plate back. 2 minutes later she returned with my original plate, microwaved. I was in shock that she would even do that and just had her take the plate altogether. Didn't even apologize or asked if I wanted something else, instead just dropped off the bill and rushed us out. Way better restaurants in Kansas City that deserve more business than this one.
