After a burger eatery announced its departure earlier this spring, its former space in the Lenexa Public Market will soon be home to a new bakery and café.
The city of Lenexa announced Monday that Homestead Kitchen + Bakery plans to move into that space, according to a news release.
The café will open this summer
- Pending renovations, Homestead Kitchen + Bakery will open in early July, according to the release.
- It will fill Cosmo Burger’s former stall near Saap Saap Noodles, which opened earlier this year.
- Though regular hours have yet to be announced, Homestead Kitchen + Bakery will be open every day of the week.
Homestead will offer “a little bit of everything”
- The eatery’s menu features items like turkey bacon ranch wraps, burgers, biscuits and gravy, and strawberry swirl muffins.
- It will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
- The restaurant and bakery got its start nearly a decade ago in Baldwin City, Kansas — making the Lenexa storefront its second.
- “Since then, Homestead Kitchen + Bakery has been a place where good food and friendly smiles come together,” said co-owner Lori Gardner via the release. “We’ve loved getting to know our community and serving up a fresh, delicious variety of pastries, meals and sweet treats — always made with care, just like the early days.”
Cosmo Burger left the market in April
- The locally-owned burger joint opened at the Lenexa Public Market in August 2022.
- The restaurant left the market in order to open its first standalone restaurant in Kansas City, Missouri.
- Turkish eatery KC Doner’s arrival marks another recent change at the Lenexa Public Market, as well as the closure of Korean restaurant Kimchi + Bap this past winter.
