42 Best Bars in Wichita

“Reallly love the Monarch in town. The food is great, though I would have appreciated some more sauce or leafy greens on my sandwich. Also would appreciate the spinach artichoke dip to have more chopped up artichokes. The service is great as well. Highly recomend for local wichitans.“

“We love it here. Great food and drinks. Fabulous music. Especially Wednesdays. Friendly. Fun atmosphere!! Once we heard Sam Shilts and hope to see him sing again. Another time was a great cowboy singer from Texas. Fantastic. Owner is amazing!!!“

“Awesome place with the BEST fried chicken in Wichita. Environment is super laid back and service is only as-needed from a table kiosk. Staff is always super friendly and personable. A great space for birthday parties and events too. I highly recommend the purrinkle chicken. Prices are super reasonable (especially for the amazing quality) and drinks are delicious. Definitely a regular spot for me!“

“was great fun, I would do this again. staff was awesome thank you Brayden.“

“Kirby's is a great little hole in the wall, with a vibrant history as a music scene hub in our community. The new owners are dedicated to inclusivity, and I'm so happy that Kirby's continues to shape future generations of artists from our city, or gigging on the road.“

“Great food and better atmosphere.“

“My favorite bar in Wichita to have a cigar, a martini, and to watch live music all at the same time“

“I heard this place was cool! Fun place to meet up, excellent service. Very affordable. Staff person greeted me at the door, asked if it was my first time in and handed me a Caesar's custom t-shirt! "thanks for coming in" Had some appetizers and $10 bucket! KJ“

“We picked Public at the Brickyard to see the Monterrey Jack band play again and because we love the atmosphere/decor here. They did not disappoint!!! The bonus was great food and attentive service by our waitress! We always enjoy the rosemary and garlic homemade fries. Tried the Jerk chicken pizza special and pretzels and beer cheese as well. All were delicious!“

“Weekly visits on Thursday . I order the same thing . My go to the chicken strips with Wedges. Hands down the best chicken strips I’ve had in Wichita . Service is great and very nice atmosphere..“

“I've been going to J's for over 20 years. The bar is always a good time and safe space for LGBTQ individuals. Karaoke on Mondays is fun and can be so busy you have a hour wait, so we went to the back and played pool. 10/10 experience.“

“Great Place all around, Very friendly staff & regulars. Indoor back room smoking area with TV's, Out side out back area. COLD draws, pool tables, old style Country music. Well worth the stopping in. Looking for a NO pressure place to chill after a long day this IS the place. I stop in when I'm in the area as much as I can.“

“Amazing bar, consistently good shows, standard prices on drinks. No craziness--just good old fashioned fun! And old-fashioned is no joke: its nestled inbetween historic oldtown and downtown with art installations all over the alley. Open mic is the best talent in town (art or comedy). Great rock booking for bands. Could use some scarier people. ;) IYKYK“

“I feel like I am save there and I'm very excited about the to be a part of the audience to the bands.🤘🎸🎸🎸😎😎😎“

“We had a great evening with drinks and dining here at Big's. The food is great, and service is top notch! The owners, Brenda and Kim are delightful, and I highly recommend this fine establishment if passing through the Wichita KS area. Do not miss this one!“

“Nice enough little hole in the wall. Smells like super fresh coffee for which they serve a small selection of tasty local pastries/muffins, that are also; "super fresh". Suprisingly, it has an impressive alcohol selection for it's size. Moreover, the absolute, perfect spot to PHD test the; 'Dunning-Kruger' effect!!!!! ???✌️“

“Mordecai is a good place to listen to live bands no problem with that.. but when the person answering the phone doesn't know when bands are playing that's the problem they're not very well informed evidently and they're not very courteous over the phone I would rate them like a 2 for PR and 5 for music...“

“I can't say enough good things about the stop! People are lovely, staff is very personable and quick, and the karaoke DJs work hard to make sure everybody who requested to sing gets too! Plus the patio is a nice spot to just chill and play corn hole. Drink prices are reasonable! I've made some genuine friends there, which I can't say have had luck with anywhere else.
Bar is small though so on nights where it gets busy it can feel a bit claustrophobic at times but hey, that's what the patio is for and being around so many people is how I made my friends to begin with so I can't complain! 💓💓💓“

“One our favorite places to go to in Wichita. Drinks are fantastic. Music is great and the dancers after 10:00 are truly amazing.“

“We love this bar!! Lots of seating and we love that they have two pool tables. The bartenders never disappoint! They're attentive and entertaining and always treat us like friends.“

“Biggins is a great place to come and drink. The bartenders are the best! Kaylyn is the best! I always recommend Biggins to everyone! There is so much to love here with the sports, Trivia and all of the things Sharon puts together for Biggins! Great place!“

“love it here, happy and calm“

“I love the location there are two fire pits, and they have live music with a guitarist that could sing.
We visited 1868 after being at Prost Germanfest for a progressive dinner .
We sat near the fireplace and met people around us and talked
We actually started out at a table and moved over to the firepit
then we ordered dessert which was a charcuterie of chocolate cake and nuts and assorted fruits and chocolate covered strawberries.
We had a calm and relaxing time talking and listening to the music.
My fiancee bought a cigar off the list and they provide lighters and cutters and trays.

It was a wonderful night“

“Wonderful first dining experience with you today. Loved the decor, service and food. We will definitely be back!“

“The FABULOUS FOOD!!! You've got to try it!“

“My favorite in Wichita.Google wants an update for my review. Field House is still my favorite. Leslie, John, and their staff make this wonderful place a second home to so many. Friends, family, and all those passing through are all just a conversation away from meeting new and interesting people in a down to earth, no nonsense setting where trivia, sports, and even dog shows might be on the TVs at any given point. Happy hour 3 to 6 and daily specials to boot.“

“You seriously need to do yourself a solid. This is a great local hangout. Tiffany Murphy Mike Patty bartenders will take care of you. Great food. All your football favorites. Pool. Darts. Video golf. Darts. Keno. Ya. You are missing out. DO IT“

“my happy place! local rooted in the folks of ICT! STOP IN HAVE A DRINK AND RELISH IN SOMETHING WITH SUBSTANCE“

“MY FAVORITE BAR! BC's Bar and Grill absolutely oozes personality. It's a low key gem with super friendly customers and staff with cheap drinks and good food.It's a place where everyone knows everyone and by the end of your night you will have likely been adopted into the family. When I walk in, my beer is either actively being poured before I order it, or it's already waiting for me when I walk up. The people I've introduced to BC's have mostly become regulars themselves.I mostly go for Karaoke and it's an awesome time, the sound is good and the environment is typically party like. Nothing crazy just everyone having an great time. I like it there so much that I had my engagement party there.BC'S is a true melting pot. My go to spot. "Sometimes you wanna go, where everybody knows your name"“

“never been to this bar until yesterday, but this place is epic. will definitely be coming back“

“Fun local hangout. Friendly waitstaff. Great food specials. Large selection of beverages. Sports channels. Lotto/Keno“

“Best Tacos on Tuedays, Fried Chicken on Wednesdays, and Steak night on Thursdays!!“

“I love the atmosphere however DJ Girl Groovin seemed fairly new to the DJ scene and needs to learn to read her crowd better“

“The drinks were delicious. The food....the quality was great, however the cost was way too high for what was given (the charcuterie board). We didn't know what anything was, except the obvious (cheese, pickles, green beans). I'll be back for the drinks. The food.....did I mention drinks?“

“Went for dinner on Christmas night, knowing they would likely be busy. Boy, were they busy. We were able to find a table upon entering the door. The service was quick enough, and the food was quicker than quick. And delicious to boot. Will definitely be back.“

“Was an impromptu stop and had a blast. Owner was wonderful and very welcoming and accommodating!!! We had the best time. Head out to the old annex at harry and woodlawn and show them some love. He makes his own pickles that are delish and infuses vodka. YUM!!!“

“Side Pockets is always our friend groups go to on week days and weekends. We always look to find Krystal’s section. She is great, always on top of her section, and remembers our drink orders before we even sit down. Always has a smile and is making us laugh. She’s 10/10“

“Good place to have a drink and hangout“

“Josh and his team are incredible. Hands down the best food in Wichita and beyond. do yourself a favor and check them out ASAP!!“

“I go every weekend! The Djs are great and bartenders are so nice and get to know their patrons! And they decorate often for events and holidays!“

“My exes don't come here!!!“

“Artichoke is one of my favorite Irish pubs in town! They have friendly staff in a cozy, welcoming environment. They have entertainment several nights a week from live bands to karaoke. The food is tasty and comes out quickly. The pours are healthy and the selection is bound to please aficionados. You can't miss with either Artichoke location!“
