Groundhouse Coffee & Bakery is an independent coffeehouse and scratch bakery at 103 S. Elm St., Gardner, KS 66030, in the city’s downtown district. It opened in January 2012 under founders Beth and Steve Hines; Keith Davenport took over in 2024 and runs it with co-owner Allison Davenport. A second, drive-thru-only site at 18855 S. Gardner Road closed July 3, 2025, consolidating the business into the downtown room. It serves espresso, coffee and specialty teas — first-party marketing names Parisi Artisan Coffee as its bean — plus in-house baked goods, and rents the room for private events. Tier 1 — single independent room, locally owned, no parent company.1234

Description

Groundhouse occupies a corner of downtown Gardner at Elm and Main-block scale, and positions itself explicitly against the drive-thru model: a room to sit in rather than a queue to clear. Its own site publishes almost nothing beyond location, hours and phone, under the tagline “Where Coffee Breath is Worth It,” with two additional functions — private events, booked through a first-party Calendly, and online ordering through a first-party Cash App link.1

The business-supplied Gardner Chamber listing describes it as a community gathering space “designed to encourage relaxation and meaningful conversation,” serving coffee, espresso and specialty teas and “proudly serving Parisi Artisan Coffee,” offering Wi-Fi and to-go service while deliberately avoiding a rushed environment, and available for meetings.3

The identity is the operating logic, not just marketing. When the owner closed the second site in 2025 he framed it as a culture decision rather than a purely financial one: the highway-adjacent drive-thru “attracted customers wanting quick service,” which conflicted with the downtown room’s community-café reputation.2

The kitchen is broader than the trade name suggests, and the current site hides it. Until sometime between February and August 2026, groundhousecoffee.com carried a full first-party online-ordering store — eleven named categories running from espresso and signature lattes through a large savoury-and-sweet crepe list, breakfast burritos, platters, bowls, salads, a pastry case, gluten-free baking and catering.5 That store has since been removed; the live site now publishes only location, hours and phone, with ordering pushed to a Cash App link.1 The bakery half is confirmed by the trade name, the chamber’s “Bakery/Coffee Shops” category, and the 2025 plan to expand baked-goods sales through other venues.32 The store also published a first-party description for most of its products, recoverable from the archived product pages’ metadata; those descriptions are reproduced in Menu and show a kitchen doing scratch biscuits and gravy, chorizo burritos, gyro-and-tzatziki crepes and composed salads alongside the coffee. Prices remain undocumented — the retired store rendered them client-side and none survive in the archive. The live site has since been rebuilt on Squarespace and publishes a single page.1 See Menu.

Ownership and history

Groundhouse Coffee opened in January 2012 in downtown Gardner. Its founders were Beth and Steve Hines.2

The business later added a second site at 18855 S. Gardner Road, near the highway. Its indoor space never reopened after the pandemic, and from 2020 it ran as a drive-thru only.2

Keith Davenport took over the business in 2024. In 2025 he closed the Gardner Road drive-thru, on July 3, 2025, citing declining sales there against rising business downtown despite growth in the surrounding area — and, more pointedly, a mismatch of format and identity: “It was a business decision. We wanted to stay true to our culture… We wanted to maintain our reputation as a community-focused coffee café… The best decision we could make was to focus all our attention on the downtown location.” Seven of the newest employees were let go; the rest moved to the downtown room. Davenport said at the time that the business intended to expand baked-goods sales through other venues and that “exciting things” were coming, without detail.2

The Gardner Chamber’s business-supplied listing names Keith Davenport as Owner and Allison Davenport as Co-Owner, along with a general manager and an administrative manager. The listing still carries a “General Manager, South” title, apparently a residue of the closed Gardner Road site, and publishes evening hours (Mon–Thu to 9 p.m., Fri–Sat to 10 p.m.) that conflict with the 6 p.m. close on the company’s own website; the first-party site is preferred here and the chamber hours are treated as stale.32

Davenport has since become a public voice for downtown Gardner business generally: in August 2026 he was quoted by KSHB as the proprietor of Groundhouse Coffee, commenting on a proposed 335-acre arts, education and entertainment district for the city — “Gardner is one of the fastest-growing cities in the Kansas City metro.”4

menu_status: partial. Groundhouse ran a first-party online-ordering store at groundhousecoffee.com/shop/… with a full product catalog. That store was removed from the live site between 2026-02-13 and 2026-08-13; today the site publishes only location, hours and phone, and its “Order Online” link resolves to a Cash App payment page rather than a priced menu.1 The catalog below is reconstructed from the store’s own archived category and product pages5 — the item names, category structure and dish descriptions are first-party, but the store’s prices were rendered client-side and were not captured by the archive, so no price is recoverable. Items are therefore listed without prices:. Per Registry rule, no delivery-platform, directory or aggregator prices are substituted. Seasonal items (eggnog, peppermint, pumpkin, shamrock, candy cane) rotate and are marked as such.

Where the descriptions come from. Each product in the retired store had its own page at groundhousecoffee.com/product/<slug>/<id>. The visible product copy was rendered client-side and is absent from the archived HTML, but the same text was written server-side into each page’s <meta name="description"> tag, which the archive did capture. 276 archived product pages were retrieved and 217 carry description copy; those are the descriptions reproduced below.5 Wording has been lightly normalised to the Registry’s neutral voice — ingredient lists, preparation and serving notes are the operator’s; purely promotional closing lines (“Order now…”, “Try them now…”) are dropped, and where a superlative is retained it is attributed to the operator in-line. Descriptions are not added where the operator published none; 19 items below remain name-only because their product pages carried no description text.

Source reconciliation note. The store renamed several products over its life, so one item on this page can map to two archived product pages. Matches made here, all confirmed by identical product ID: Caramel D’licious = caramelicious-latte/232 and caramel-d-licious-latte/232; Build Your Own Latte = build-your-own-latte/340 and byo-hot-latte/340; Build Your Own Iced Latte = build-your-own-iced-latte/341 and byo-iced-latte/341; Cortado = cortado/119, earlier published as boston-cream/119; Chai Tea Latte = chai-tea-latte/222 and chai-latte/222; Ole’ Cafe au Lait = ole-cafe-au-lait-/256; Lemon Drop (hot tea) and Lemon Drop Tea Latte are the same product ID 534 listed under two names. Hot teas Bouquet / Currant / Hugo Grey / Rainier map to IDs 224/225/226/228 under both the hot-tea-<name> and <name>-hot-tea slugs. Where two captures of the same ID differ, the later capture is used; four such divergences are recorded below. Items whose archived pages could not be confidently matched to a listed name were declined rather than guessed.

Divergences between captures of the same product ID:

  • Build Your Own Latte (ID 340): the 2021 capture names the espresso as “Espresso Roma,” the 2024 capture as “Leviathan.” The 2024 wording is used; the iced version still named Espresso Roma in 2024.
  • Southwest Chicken salad (ID 469): the Feb-2024 capture lists tomato and a house-made Southwestern ranch; the Apr-2024 capture lists no tomato and avocado ranch. The later (avocado ranch) wording is used.
  • Eggnog latte (ID 178 / 315): two differently worded holiday descriptions; the later (2022, ID 178) is used.
  • Toasted S’mores latte (ID 285 / 304): two differently worded descriptions; the later (2022, ID 304) is used.

Operator error not reproduced. The archived Orange Streusel Muffin pages (IDs 524 and 529) both carry the Winter Blueberry muffin’s description verbatim — a copy-paste error in the operator’s own store. It is not reproduced here, and Orange Streusel is left name-only.

Platform change, 2026. The retired store was a Duda-hosted storefront. As of 2026-08-13 groundhousecoffee.com is served by Squarespace (template carillon-rhino-7zr5), and its sitemap.xml lists exactly one page, /home — which is why every /shop/ and /product/ URL now 404s. This is a site rebuild, not a business change; the room, ownership and phone are unchanged.1

Categories as the store itself named them:5 The Basics · Signature Flavored Lattes · Iced Coffee Beverages · Non-Coffee Beverages · Hot Teas · Blenders · Breakfast · Pastry Case · Grab-n-Go · Coffee at YourHouse · Online Catering.

The grouping of individual items under those headings below is editorial, drawn from the item names; the headings and the names are the store’s own.

To resolve on a future pass: photograph or transcribe the in-store board, or check whether a first-party priced ordering page (Square/Toast/Clover) has replaced the Cash App link. Prices remain the only substantial gap — item names, category structure and dish descriptions are now all first-party. The 19 name-only items below that the operator never described are an honest ceiling, not a coverage gap: no description exists in the store’s own data for them.

  5. Groundhouse Coffee & Bakery — the business’s own retired online-ordering store on groundhousecoffee.com, recovered via the Internet Archive (accessed 2026-08-13). Store index, captured 2026-02-13 — full capture index of the store’s product and category pages: web.archive.org — Asserts: Groundhouse operated a first-party ordering catalog on its own domain with the categories The Basics, Signature Flavored Lattes, Iced Coffee Beverages, Non-Coffee Beverages, Hot Teas, Blenders, Breakfast, Pastry Case, Grab-n-Go, Coffee at YourHouse and Online Catering, and the ~200 item names transcribed in the Menu section above; category pages were last captured 2026-02-13 and every /shop/ and /product/ URL returns 404 on the live site as of 2026-08-13, establishing the store’s removal. Individual product pages — enumerated from the Wayback CDX index at web.archive.org (276 distinct product URLs, retrieved 2026-08-13) — carry the operator’s own dish description in each page’s <meta name="description"> element; 217 of the 276 carry description text, and those are the descriptions reproduced in the Menu section. Representative single-product examples: web.archive.org (Brewed Coffee — Parisi blends and single origins), web.archive.org (Bullet Proof), web.archive.org (Bacon, Egg & Cheddar Platter). Does not assert any price — the store’s prices were rendered client-side and are absent from every archived product-page capture. The sole exception, not used here, is one 2022 capture of the store’s own JSON API (web.archive.org) which shows the Caramelicious Blender at $4.20–$5.25; a single 2022 price for one product is too stale and too narrow to publish as current. ↩ ↩2 ↩3 ↩4 ↩5 ↩6 ↩7 ↩8 ↩9 ↩10 ↩11 ↩12 ↩13 ↩14 ↩15 ↩16 ↩17
