Welcome to Dagwood's Cafe, a small town style cafe that's serving the same food you could order decades ago.

Dagwood's has been around since 1938, and we hope it sticks around for much, much longer.

This little cafe is one of those cafes where you can order anything and love it. Every one of your breakfast classics is served fresh and just how you like it cooked.

Because it's such a small establishment, it's a little slower when its busy, but that's to be expected when you serve such great food!

For those of you who love lunch more than breakfast, they serve plenty of sandwich options, as well as specials like chicken fried steak.

Everything from pork tenderloin to hot beef sandwiches can be found here, but the best part is their service and the feeling you get from any good hometown diner. Make sure to grab a shake or malt to go and enjoy it on your way home! If you have any room left after your meal, that is.

Whenever you're feeling like a classic Kansas cafe, Dagwood's is open from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. every day of the week.

You’ll find Dagwood’s Cafe at 1117 Southwest Blvd, Kansas City, Kansas.

If you love old fashioned food and that warm, Kansas service you love, you’ll also like this cornerstone cafe in another town in Kansas.
