The Sit Down

This coffee shop is in a cool old house directly across from the historic Elgin Hotel. I had a Delicious hot egg and bacon sandwich and a plain latte. A perfect pair. 🥐 ☕️ Lots of private sitting areas. Friendly service and good prices.

Love this place!! The coffee and food taste amazing and the owner is an angel! Best scones I’ve had in Kansas!! It’s a great cozy atmosphere with so much character. An absolute must stop while in Marion!

I had a good sit-down at the Sit Down. This was after I visited an all you can eat buffet. I grabbed a book, took a seat....did a little meditation...and let nature take its course. Sometimes I need a little help with my sit-down so I order a little something from the menu to help, get me moving in the right direction. I'm lactose intolerant so a milk shake does the trick. In general, dairy gives me problems so the egg bowl works too. My dog likes this place too. He does his sit-down out front. To be honest, he drags me there...he's more excited to go there than myself.

The owner and staff are very friendly. I forgot my wallet (embarrassing), and the owner gave me a free coffee. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. I had the cinnamon roll on a previous visit, very good. I would definitely recommend this place!

I enjoyed The Sit Down cafe several times over a recent weekend. Loved the comfortable decor and the fact that it’s located in an old house literally across the street from the Historic Elgin Hotel, so only a very short walk away. Shelves of books to read if you’re so inclined. Good food and drinks and eager-to-please staff. A great place to hang out for an hour or two!
