The Quirky Eatery Where Every Missourian Will Feel Like A Kid Again

Editor’s Note: As of January 2020, this business has closed.

Remember how much fun coloring was when we were kids? When we were really little, we just let our creativity run wild. We didn’t always color within the lines, and that was okay. A purple penguin? A pink pumpkin? Our imagination knew no bounds. Reclaim some of that childhood creativity when you sit down at this colorful eatery in Missouri that welcomes guests — both kids and adults — to color while you’re waiting for your meal.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date.

Channel your inner child and bring the kids (or not) to the Crayola Cafe, a colorful and quirky restaurant in Kansas City.

And, don't worry about the kids — or you — getting bored as you wait for your meal. Just pick up a crayon and one of the coloring pages on the table to create a 21st-century masterpiece.

Of course, you'll probably want to order your meal first. Start the whole table off with a delicious appetizer, such as the fried pickle basket, pulled pork nachos, or southwest egg rolls.

Take a peek at the adult menu, where you'll find grown-up mac and cheese, grilled cheese and tomato soup, PB&J sandwiches, and Crayola burgers.

Crayola Cafe also boasts a scrumptious kids menu. Choose from such fun dishes as hot dogs, grilled cheese, chicken tenders, and kiddie's mac and cheese. All kids meals come with waffle fries, kettle chips, corn on the cob, or applesauce.

Then, after you've finished your meal, head over to the attached Crayola shop, where you'll find a huge assortment of Crayola products.

Feel like a kid again at the colorful Crayola Cafe, open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.

Crayola Cafe is located at 2450 Grand Blvd., Kansas City, MO 64108.
