Pitchside Coffee Opens in the Crossroads This Weekend
KC Daily
Its a BIG weekend for the KC Current! The team welcomes NC Courage to CPKC Stadium on Saturday, and Pitchside Coffee opens in the Crossroads on Sunday.
Pitch to Cup: Pitchside Coffee was launched as a mobile coffee trailer in 2024 by six Kansas City Current players (five are still with the team). The truck sold Pitchside’s KC-roasted coffee at pop-ups around town, as well as a vendor partnership at CPKC Stadium.
Crossroads Coffee: Pitchside will now open a brick-and-mortar at 1819 Grand Blvd in the Crossroads, with a grand opening celebration from 11am - 2pm this Sunday, August 31st. Normal operating hours will be from 7am - 2pm, Tuesday through Sunday.
Pitchside Coffee is one of six upcoming food & drink concepts we’ve had our eye on. Check out the other five!
