There are a variety of unique shopping options in the “First City in Kansas” ranging from the historic riverfront downtown with its fabulous architecture and its original “Mom & Pop” unique specialty shops to the climate-controlled, indoor plaza.

Downtown Leavenworth shops offer an eclectic variety of home, gift, garden, fun & funky jewelry, clothing, specialty teas and foods, antiques, furniture, quilting supplies, pottery and much, much more.  There’s even an old fashioned lunch counter that has been rated the “#1 old time soda fountain” in the Kansas City area!  The merchants take pride in getting to know their customers on a first-name basis and delight in offering old fashioned, honest-to-goodness service.  When it comes to restaurants, the downtown offers a very diverse variety of foods—BBQ, Thai, Mexican, American and even a Brewery.  There is plenty of free, limited-time parking on the street and in parking lots.  Just be careful not to park in special permit zones.

You also won’t want to miss those other unique, specialty stores and great restaurants scattered throughout Leavenworth that guarantee a memorable experience.

We invite you to leave the big city life behind and make Leavenworth your next “Great Escape”!!
