A new breakfast spot is going up amid the new construction in Wichita’s Delano district
A new coffee shop and breakfast eatery is coming to 143 N. McLean Blvd. in Wichita.
Mokas Cafe, which also operates in Hays and Salina, has just broken ground on a free-standing Wichita cafe and plans to have it open early next year.
It will serve coffee plus breakfast items, wraps, salads and desserts and will be owned by JRI Hospitality, a Salina-based company that has more than 75 restaurants, including franchises of Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, The Original Grande and Chompie’s.
A quick peek at the menu for the Salina restaurant shows that it serves items like French toast, pancakes, biscuits and gravy and breakfast plates. That menu also includes sandwiches stacked high, burgers, sliders, Reubens and more. The drink menu offers espresso beverages, Nitro cold brew and smoothies.
The construction site is near the River Vista apartments and the Advanced Learning Library, in the heart of a new construction area where apartments and a hotel have recently gone up.
The first Mokas opened at 902 E. Crawford in Salina in 2005. The Hays store opened at 1230 E. 27th St. in 2010.
