Equal Minded Night-Lounge & Event Venue

equal minded does two things at once, and does both seriously: specialty coffee and a venue that actually runs events. that combination sounds obvious until you try to find a place that pulls it off without one half suffering. troost avenue has its own gravitational pull in kansas city, a corridor that's been through a lot and is currently in a stretch where places like this can exist and matter. the regulars here aren't casual about their loyalty. if you're weighing where to spend a few hours on the east side, this address rewards the detour. it operates as a roaster too, so what ends up in your cup starts earlier in the process than at most spots. start with whatever's on the drip.
