French-American bistro with creative twists, late hours, and brunch
"Westport Cafe is a modern take on French cuisine. Their menu is full of traditional French dishes with a creative twist: The Black Truffle Pasta with cilantro & coconut curry & the Crispy Lamb Terrine with orange are among my favorite appetizers. Westport Cafe is tucked into a row of restaurants along Westport road & they have an urban, lived-in atmosphere. Saturday & Sunday brunch at Westport Cafe hits the spot. Menu favorites include the Eggs Norwegian & the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. All of their brunch plates include a complimentary mimosa or breakfast cocktail, so bottoms up." - Cat Coquillette
"Westport Cafe has a terrific daily Happy Hour from 4–6pm where you can drink and snack on things like discounted lambrusco and pomme frites. They also bring those deals back from 10pm to close, so it’s a great place to start or end the night with profiteroles or steak frites. The interior feels like a cozy Parisian brasserie filled with café tables, subway tiles, and velvet curtains. They also do a phenomenal brunch on Sunday—the apple beignets with Monique's Jam often inspire us to get up early." - ryan bernsten

"A neighborhood mainstay, Westport Cafe pairs timeless design (checkerboard floor tiles, red velvet curtains) with a frequently refreshed menu that embraces — but isn’t confined by — classic French culinary traditions. Sure, you can get a very good croque-madame here. But you can also order a braised rabbit tamale or a cachaça cocktail sweetened with fresh Missouri corn. Best for: Brunch with friends. Unlike many KC spots, Westport Cafe offers reservations for its Sunday brunch." - Liz Cook
