50 Best Bar & Grill near North Kansas City

“Good bar food, neiborhood bar vibe. Our waitress was fantastic. Normally I get the pork tenderloin sandwich. Which is huge and very good.
This time I had the cheese steak sandwich which was too salty for my taste.
(Revised from my original post)“

“👍Great quiet spot on a Wed. night. Get the Pot Roast Special. You won't be sorry!“

“Great food music was a bit loud. Good burgers, Thai chicken sandwich was delicious and huge, tender and tasty. Fries were good bit not crispy, maybe they were ready before sandwiches or maybe because sandwiches were placed on top of the.. But would definitely give them another try.“

“Awesome food and service. Al, Tim and the staff will take care of you. Highly recommend.“

“Loved this little hidden gem! Has a 70s vibe to it. Darker decor. I love places that have secret hidden doors. Drinks were cheap and strong. Food good too. We will definitely be back.“

“Fantastic Service and Amazing BBQ!! We got Pulled Pork, Brisket, beans and coleslaw. All of it was fantastic, 10 out of 10 recommend 😋“

“I stopped in here after visiting with a friend. I’m so glad I stopped in. To drink, I got the Royal Lemonade—well balanced. For food, I got the mozzarella sticks and ginger burger (I was super hungry, but had to take home some of my burger). To be honest, the burger is not something I would normally order, but it was recommended and I’m glad I went for it. I would definitely eat it again. The atmosphere here is nice. It’s clean and comfortable. The regulars here are nice and the staff is friendly. You never know when you walk into a bar “that’s not yours” how you’ll be treated. I told my partner that if we lived down here that I could see us coming here often. You should give them a try.“

“Cool atmosphere, friendly service, great food, beer, and just a dam good tim!“

“Came in here for the first time on a Wednesday night for all day happy hour. Someone mentioned this spot on Reddit so I thought it would be good spot to rendezvous with some friends.

The poutine was absolutely DELICIOUS. Our bartender Caleb did a great job of pointing us to the bar's favorite food and drink items. I went with a margarita to drink and it hit the spot. Karaoke was happening which was a great vibe to be around.

I will definitely be back sometime soon with more friends!“

“Very friendly service, I felt appreciated. My first impression walking in was “Wow, low lighting!” Hate overhead lighting and sterile decor. The decor choices are very entertaining. This place is surprising and compelling. Food was good, had a pork tenderloin and fries (that’s how I judge a diner). They had my NA beer! I’ll be back with my girlfriends.“

“great drinks and service!“

“Absolutely Delicious! Accommodated our whole party of 10, the food and drinks were fabulous!“

“Best burgers in town and a very fun and good energy atmosphere. Got my daughter addicted to the curly fries and burger.“

“We were passing thru and staying at Best Western Premier. The desk clerk recommended Conrad’s! We went there and so glad we did! Claire was our waitress and she was amazing! Hubby has allergies and she went back twice to make sure he was ok!! We shared the Blue Chips appetizer…with a couple cold ones. OMG….they were soooo good! We had regular BBQ sauce instead of Buffalo. Amazing! And you get so much!! Definitely enough to share! Then we both ordered the grilled chicken wrap with ranch dressing. That also was so very good! I brought 1/2 of mine back to motel for breakfast in the morning. For a side I had steamed broccoli which was excellent. Hubby had the mixed vegetables. It is a casual but nice place!! Claire was awesome and so was the food!“

“Taco Tuesday with the lovely Erika to serve you is always the best“

“I love The Ship! It has become our ladies night out location, with dancing and drinks. The service is always on point. Mazzy always has a great smile, wicked sense of humor, and laugh that fills the room. Kelly supports the fun, and keeps our glasses filled. They are a huge part of why we keep coming back. The live music and inclusiveness makes it feel like family.“

“great food, great drinks , great service what else you need“

“Lindsay and her famous pickle shots will keep us coming back every time. Best in Kansas City, if not the whole world.“

“Beautiful and at a good service“

“Gambles is the place to be! Mark the bartender always treats me with kindness and always makes me laugh! I have a great time every time I’m here and the food is phenomenal. If I could give it 10 stars, I would! The environment and the people are amazing and it’s always a great time to meet with friends play pool darts, and other games!! Just a vibe!“

“The food was great but I wouldn’t come here on an evening of you want good service. My husband and I did a tasting tour near by and wanted something to eat before we headed back to the Air BnB. Immediately you could tell how the experience was going to be when we didn’t order drinks right away and didn’t see our server again for about 15 minutes. She was very obviously more interested in paying more attention to customers that ordered drinks right away. She didn’t give her name otherwise I would I mention here. We only got one water and she didn’t come back to us again. We went to go to the hostess to try to pay our bill, ended up stopping her as she was leaving the bar. I give 2 stars out of 5. That’s only because the food was really good. I don’t think I would come back here. Maybe during the day would be better but I don’t know if I’d come here again anyway.“

“We were staying overnight at The Fairfield Inn, and The Summit Grill was recommended to us for a dinner location. We were pleasantly surprised at the deliciously amazing food, quick service, and also our attentive waiter, Travis. I highly recommend the Traditional Pot Roast, and my husband recommends the Chicken-Fried Chicken. If we are in Gladstone again, we will defintely return.“

“Top notch food and service!!!! Definitely recommend it.“

“Everything!! Been coming here for years! LOVE IT!!“

“It was Friday in early November, just days after Halloween. I came from out of town to a job interview, at Country Club Plaza. I was trying to find a place before going to the Power & Light District later that night & after my interview. I was going to go somewhere else, but they had 30 min wait. So I'm not from here, don't know KC well (unless I have my GPS), and new to the bar scene in the metro area. Suddenly, a place called "The Bar" came to my Google Search. I almost didn't want to come here. I'm thinking to myself "just go, you don't come to KC often"...& I did. The Bar West Plaza was actually better than I thought it was going to be. I also didn't know they had multiple places until I realized that before Thanksgiving. Not to mention, they have karaoke??? YES! I couldn't do karaoke hence going to the P&L District & due to time, I wouldn't have made it back in time...sadly. In the end, I had two bartenders (Katie & Adrianna) who were by far stellar at their job (from start to finish). I was very impressed. A local patron told me to try their wings, you will regret it if you don't. That man wasn't joking. Holy...😇 I give this place 4 out 5 stars. The ONLY reason why I didn't give it 5 out of 5 is because of the lack of parking. The rest is by far awesome.“

“it was not the great experience I thought it would be, but for anyone on. a budget this palace serves enough per plate to feed an army. I am at KUMed, so taste buds are way off but everything seemed so salty. they also had no recall of my soda which I ordered online because it red soda. when my son came back with diet whatever I almost flipped him over. Maybe that's the swelling of the brain???🤔🤔🤔 regardless, my favorite husband has had a black and blue burger several times and he loves them. I get the feeling it's a dine- in kind of place.“

“Had the cheese fries and they were awesome! Cheese sauce was flavorful (not the same old cheese sauce that others use). The fries stayed crunchy even with the sauce over them. Also had a bacon/cheeseburger that was very flavorful. And of course the giant hot wings. Their homemade blue cheese dipping sauce was very good, not overpowering. Great service even though it got crowded. I Highly recommend!“

“Charlie Hoopers never disappoints! While half of our party was there for one of their famous custom hot dogs, almost everyone ended up choosing a custom burger or chicken sandwich. I chose the Hickory Chicken and coupled it with a side of sweet potato tots which I highly recommend. Our group shared a large Bavarian pretzel which comes with stone ground mustard and a queso cheese sauce that was excellent. Don't overlook Charlie Hoopers as just some sports bar with bar food or you will miss out on some delectable food choices.“

“Set on new patio and a great meal. Definitely will be going back soon.“

“Jeanne was the best. Recommended a great dinner very personal and fun to talk to at the bar 5 stars just passing through and loved.“

“Very nice staff, they truly have a friendly neighborhood vibe. What stood out was the bartender took one look at my ID and started using my name every time they talked to me. It felt nice and polite. I was thanked (by I’m assuming the owner) on my way out for stopping in. It’s the little things like this that keep small businesses in business.“
