Gedney Bakery & Coffeehouse
From our oven to your table, everything is crafted from scratch.
Welcome to Gedney Bakery & Coffeehouse
Located in the heart of Historic Downtown Independence, Gedney Bakery & Coffeehouse is a locally owned gathering place built around scratch-made food, handcrafted beverages, community, and a love for local history.
Our name pays tribute to the original Gedney Hotel & Opera House, a remarkable Independence landmark that opened in 1892 just a block from where our bakery and coffeehouse stands today.
Today, we’re proud to carry the Gedney name forward in a new way. Whether you’re stopping in for a scratch-made pastry and coffee, meeting up with friends, getting some work done, or joining us for a community event, we hope Gedney feels like a place to gather, connect, and enjoy a little piece of Independence.
Our Delicious Offerings
Scratch-Made Specialties
Every day, our bakers arrive early to make our breads, scones, muffins, cookies, pastries, and other baked goods from scratch right here in our kitchen. We don't order frozen bakery items from large distributors and simply reheat them. We mix, shape, bake, and finish our products ourselves using quality ingredients and time-honored baking techniques.

Such a great spot! Had some time to kill in Independence so decided to stop in and so I’m so glad I did! Such a cozy space with great coffee, baked goods and service!
