Off-the-cuff humor is all good, but improvised lattes make us nervous. So, it's a good thing that
Roving Imp Coffee House, the new java joint inside the Roving Imp Theater — the base for a troupe of spontaneous local comedians — has an actual drink menu. The sweet specialty blends of sugar, milk, caffeine and ice are all named for famous villains. The Rex Mantooth is flavored with hazelnut and Irish cream, and the Gargamel tastes of vanilla and caramel. Less threatening options exist, too, such as straight shots of espresso and coffee served however you please. The coffee house, at 115 Oak in Bonner Springs, is open seven days a week — 2:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. Saturday, and 8 a.m. to midnight Sunday. Call 913-441-2309.
