These folks traveled the farthest to come eat at the Kansas State Fair. The Netherlands!

We loved their accents, their cheer, and they had waffle fries (I mean, do you blame them).

Thank you for coming in and we hope to see you at another fair in the future!

Who else is already missing Tobe’s brisket (he in one of the owners)??

Pop always said, "No rain, no rainbow."

On our last day at the fair, the sky delivered both.

We watched that double rainbow stretch across Kansas like God was painting His signature on our nine-day story.

Like He was saying, "Well done."

The thing about rainbows is they only show up after the storm.

And this fair season had its storms, literal ones, like when our computers went down. When we sold out of redbull, twice :). When we sold out of breakfast our final day before 10:30.

But Pop knew something about weather and life:

The beautiful stuff comes after the hard stuff.
Not instead of it.
Because of it.

For nine days, we didn't just sell food.

We collected stories.

We earned smiles.

We turned strangers into regulars and regulars into family.

We watched kids grow brave enough to ask for a refill on their own.

We saw teenagers choose our breakfast wraps over sleep.

We witnessed grandparents make memories with their grands over piggy pancakes.

That double rainbow wasn't luck.
It was confirmation.

Confirmation that when you show up with your whole heart, when you serve with your hands and love with your food, something magical happens.

The universe takes notice.
The sky responds.

We came to feed people.
We left having been fed ourselves.

No rain, no rainbow, Pop.

Thanks for teaching us that the storms make the beauty possible.

See you next year, Kansas.

We'll be here, rain or shine, ready for whatever rainbows follow.

Nine days.

Thousands of meals.

Countless conversations over coffee, breakfast, and brisket.

Our feet are tired, but our hearts? Overflowing. 🧡

Pop always said food wasn’t just food, it was how you cared for people.

And this week, you reminded us why we do this.

Every “good morning,” every smile across the counter, every story shared about your family and ours… it’s what keeps Pop’s Place alive.

Thank you for making Pop’s part of your fair.

We’ll see you next year — same spot, same food, same family table.

Food. Family. Fair. Always.

The thing about temporary things is they teach you what matters.

For nine days, we built something beautiful in the middle of Kansas.

Not just a booth or a business, but a table.

The biggest family table you've ever seen, with chairs for everyone who showed up hungry.

And you showed up.

Kids carried our refillable cups like trophies, the cups almost bigger than they were.

4-H kids fueled their dreams on breakfast wraps and piggy pancakes.

The Outlaw and brownies were a hit!

Here's what we learned: Community isn't built in permanent places.

It's built in moments.

In the space between ordering and receiving.

In the thank you's exchanged across a counter.

In the way a simple black cup becomes a symbol of belonging.

The fair is coming to a close for 2025, but the story isn't.

Every time you use that Pop's cup, you're carrying a piece of this place with you.

You're remembering that for nine days, we were all part of something bigger than ourselves.

That's not nothing.

That's everything.

So this isn't goodbye. This is just the pause between chapters.

Keep sharing those pictures.

Keep telling those stories.

Keep carrying that piece of Kansas with you wherever you go.

The table is closed for now, but the family remains.

Food. Family. Fair.

See you next September.

Sunday morning at the fair.

We may be draggin’ a little after a full week, but our hearts (and our coffee pots) are full. 🧡

It’s the last call for breakfast at Pop’s Place this year.

Piggy pancakes, breakfast bowls and wraps, and hot coffee one more time before the fairgrounds quiet down.

Come share one last plate, one last cup, one last memory with us.

It’s not goodbye, it’s see you next fair.

Food. Family. Fair. Always.

The thing about goodbyes is they're really just pauses in a longer story.

This morning we are watching our friends & family pour the last cups of coffee at our fair booth, and I'm thinking about how stories work.

How they have chapters.

How the best ones always leave you wanting more.

For nine days, strangers became regulars.

Regulars became friends.

And friends became part of something bigger than breakfast wraps and the star of the show, The Outlaw!

You know what I learned this week?

Community isn't built in boardrooms or strategy meetings.

It's built across counters, one conversation at a time.

One refill at a time.

One story shared while waiting for pancakes.

The fair is really just a stage where ordinary people get to be part of an extraordinary story together.

And for nine days, we all had starring roles.

My mom and grandma Mary were here, wiping tables and shuttling kids, doing behind the scene stuff. Sisters and their families were here helping.

Watching them, I realized legacy isn't always something you leave behind, it's something you live out loud, in real time, with the people you love.

My dad , the O.G. Pop, isn't here anymore, but his fingerprints are all over this place.

In the way we serve people.
In the way we show up.
In the way we believe food is just an excuse to love people better.

So this isn't goodbye.
This is just the end of Chapter 2025 State Fair
The story continues. It always continues.

See you next year, Kansas.

Thank you fair-goers for your support, friends & family who helped get us through this week, and family afar sending us encouragement to go for one more day!

Food. Family. Fair. Always.

Our hearts are full as we finish this Sunday at the Fair!

P.S. Happy Grandparents Day to all of you in that club! We are blessed by you!

Sunday at the Fair Hits Different

The final pancake flip.
Morning Mass.
Llamas in the ring.
Butter sculptures still holding strong.
One last round of pig races & and piggy pancakes.

Tomorrow is our final breakfast rush of 2025 at Pop’s Place.

Hot coffee.
Breakfast burritos.
And the kind of fair conversations we’ll carry with us all year.

After tomorrow, the griddle goes cold until next September.
So come early.
Bring a friend.
Make one more memory.
