WHO ARE WE?
Rob & Kate Joseph [Founders]
...moved to Kansas City in 2012 to expand the veterinary pharmaceutical company Rob had co-founded in Australia. In 2017 Rob and Kate set out to turn their passion for food into the concept that is BANKSIA today. They both have a deep love for food and have spent the last 20 years traveling, often flying half-way around the world to try a new restaurant. They have instilled their gastronomic passion in their three children who all work at Banksia!
"One thing you can be sure of, Aussies don't take themselves too seriously and we hope our laid back lifestyle shines through in our cafes. Australia has a fantastically diverse food scene and we are excited to bring that fusion of cuisines from all the places we have traveled to our friends in Kansas City." Robert Joseph; Founder
