The Goonies had the wet cave and tunnels beneath the old wishing well. Your time, bean freaks, is now. Kansas City is in the midst of Specialty Coffee Week.

One More Cup has a midweek mingle today from 4:30 to 6 p.m. with free samples of Toddy coffee, root beer chai, and other drinks and baked goods. Tomorrow, all 8-oz. lattes and cappuccinos are $1.95. Thursday, you should also get to Parisi Coffee early at Union Station. The shop is celebrating its one-year anniversary, and the first 200 customers get a free cupcake from Smallcakes. Homer’s offers $1 scones on Thursdays and free coffee refills. And all locations of Latteland are holding happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. with $1 shots of espresso, and small iced and hot coffee through Friday, September 21.

A complete list of specials is here. Enjoy your caffeine.
