The Roost

Kansas: The Roost

At The Roost in Lawrence, you’ll find a breakfast sandwich that truly delivers on Kansas-sized cravings. This cozy café’s Roost Breakfast Sandwich starts with two slices of hearty sourdough bread, then heaps them with eggs (cooked any style you like), crisp lettuce, tomato, onion, provolone cheese, and a smear of smoky chipotle mayo. You get to choose between pecan wood–smoked bacon or savory sausage to top it off – either way, you can’t go wrong. It’s a messy, flavorful handful that pairs perfectly with a side of the café’s breakfast potatoes for a complete meal. The Roost’s friendly atmosphere and generous portions have made it a beloved breakfast destination for University of Kansas students and long-time locals alike.
