Drinks & Nightlife

Westport is the local nightlife. Riot Room is a great venue with shows just about every night. Char Bar, Beer Kitchen, and McCoys are great dinner spots. Harry's and Westport Ale House are favorite bars. They block the streets off on weekend nights around 10pm so it is only foot traffic, no cars. So make sure you take that into consideration.

Kansas City's own Boulevard Brewing Co. KC is in love with their breweries, especially Boulevard. They just added a new Tours and Recreation building. There are interactive fact displays, a gift shop, and an incredible bar/restaurant on the second floor. But make sure you go book yourself a tour!

Power and Light, or P&L, is a bit more expensive but makes for a great night! This is where the KC Live Block is that hosts concerts and Royals playoff watch parties.

I love PT's. They were started and still roast in Topeka, KS. PT's has consistently been recognized as some of the best coffee out there. Their trendy shop in Crossroads is a great morning destination.

(Pronounced "key" coffee) Quay is possibly the coziest of coffee shops in Kansas City. Also some of the best coffee here. Its located in the River Market District. Very cool shop in a very cool neighborhood.

Definitely among the top coffee in the city, mostly because its nationally known among the top coffee in the country. They are technically a tasting room only, but it's a coffee shop. They just close at 3p. Also you can't order your fru-fru latte frappucino thing here. They might laugh at you, honestly. Their coffee speaks for itself on how quality it is.

Beautiful and free. Great art and so much history! There is also seasonal festivals held here. Locals love to have picnics or throw a frisbee on the enormous front lawn. You'll know you're at the right place because of the giant shuttlecocks!
