    Barrel-Aged Espresso Old-Fashioned.
    Tom V.

    Pretty good spot for a drink or a happy hour noshable. You have plenty of options in downtown Old Shawnee, but District Pour House probably has the most robust menu of eats among your choices. We dropped in for a drink and (unfortunately) there was a gathering/party going on at the same time, so it was super loud and with the high ceilings, somewhat noise-overwhelming. But that's not on District, and the service was friendly and attentive, always in a nearby orbit if we needed anything. This visit had me sampling a seasonal cocktail, an espresso old-fashioned, which had a coffee pungency with bourbon sweetness. Excellent execution by our bartender! We also snacked on a fresh order of Parmesan truffle fries, crispy and scorchingly hot, with a fine garlic aioli nestled alongside. Absolute winner of a shareable! Easy place to get into, good strong menu, and friendly service. I've had District's offerings from their days on Wornall and the vibe has carried over to Shawnee. Definitely worth the look if you're in the mood for a solid drink and food option.

    Great experience. Stopped in for lunch with some friends. Waitress was super friendly and patient with all of our orders and questions. Place has a cozy vibe to it that somehow wasn't noisy even though they were busy. Our drinks remained full. My salad was delicious with tons of fresh flavors. I would definitely dine here again.

    We actually really enjoyed our evening out here! I felt like they had the perfect amount of options on the menu. Food came out how and fresh as we ordered it. The rissoto balls for an appetizer were incredible - and already craving them again. The hot honey chicken sandwich was hot, fresh and crispy. We ordered the truffle fries with it - and over all - I enjoyed all of it. Cool place and atmosphere. Service was quick and responsive.

    Chicken sandwich

    Definitely hit a local flavor to Shawnee! We had their Seafood dip- cheddar cheese, crab and lobster served with baguettes and chips. We had to ask for more fresh chops which didn't disappoint with the pairing of the dip! The Chicken sandwich had good flavor but with the chile infused honey it would tasted to well. Good and crispy just need more flavor to it.. I didn't get the chipotle aioli taste at all.

    My husband and I stopped in today to get try out a cocktail and were very pleased! The decor was lovely with all the Christmas decorations that were tasteful and the ambiance was relaxing and enjoyable. We went about 5 pm and were seated immediately. We didn't have any food because we just ate dinner but wanted a cocktail. They have wonderfully tasteful infused liquors and my husband's was a berry basil type of martini and mine was an apricot type of cocktail (cannot remember the names! Oops!) But they were delicious! The waitress was great and we will definitely go back to try their other cocktails or food choices.

    WFC burger & Meatloaf
    Jennifer M.

    Yes, the answer to your question is yes! The place hasn't skipped the beat from their move from Waldo. My family enjoyed several cocktails, I recommend the pickle martini. My favorite entrée after sampling everyone's was the meatloaf, but I did like my WFC burger & tots! The biggest compliment I can give is our server. She had nicknames for all of us and we called her "Addy" For her adidas apparel. She provided our group a memorable experience with her vibe, great service and sense of humor.

    Such a fun atmosphere. Open seating, cool bar area and a very unique private party room with a real bank vault door. Fast & friendly service. Food Mac & Cheese with bacon. Exactly what I needed for a cold day. Cheesy, warm and comforting. Paired with the flourless chocolate cake. One of the best cakes I have had in sometime. Plenty of menu options, including hand crafted cocktails using in house infused spirits.

    Chicken sandwich and fries
    Alex S.

    I love how more and more amazing restaurants are opening up in Shawnee and this is not slacker. After an extensive revamp of the building that was, for lack of a better term, underused. Their food is a welcome change to the area. Not knocking on anything nearby, but an ACTUAL restaurant is welcomed!!! Now for the drink, you gotta give their special old fashions are tasty!

    Fried chicken sandwich
    Alix A.

    I went here last week with my parents. I grew up in Shawnee so it's fun to see so much growth downtown in the last few years. I've been watching this space for a while, especially when I enjoyed District Pour House when it was in Waldo. I'll start by apologizing for not remembering all the dish names. They don't have any pics of the menu or a website yet, so I can't remember the exact names a week later. We started with the risotto balls/arancini. The sauce was SOOOO good - like a romesco aioli. It was perfectly fried and I just loved them. High marks for the app! For the meal, I got the meatloaf, my dad got the fried chicken sandwich, and my mom got a chicken salad (I feel like it was named the sonora or sonoma.. something like that). I thought the meatloaf was tasty but the meal was room temperature, at best, and I thought the mashed potatoes could have used some salt. My dad liked his chicken sandwich well enough, but he wasn't particularly effusive (but that's him). My mom really enjoyed her salad. We ended up getting the lemon dessert. It was good but my parents thought it wasn't made in-house. ::shrug:: It's a cute space though I'm a little dubious about the bench booth that backs up directly to tables. I could see someone's long hair landing in someone's food. And sitting closer to strangers than to my dinner companions is kind of odd. More of a partition would be a good idea. I am happy that there is now a full-service dinner spot in downtown Shawnee. It will likely make a killing with all those bars and no other higher end options on the block, right now. I would certainly recommend this spot, but there is room for improvement.

    Seafood dip with bread and chips
    Aaron S.

    This restaurant is in a GREAT location in downtown Shawnee. My wife and I loved them when we first visited at their old location and have been excited that they're much closer to us now. With the weather as nice as it is now, they have the space open to the outdoors so you have a nice view during your experience. Our server couldn't have been nicer and the service was good. We started with the seafood dip. The consistency was a little more like a chowder than a dip but the flavor was DELICIOUS. We also had some truffle fries that are a must. I had the duck risotto. I enjoyed the flavor of the balsamic with it, but it was missing that wow factor. I commend them for their ambitious menu that you won't find just anywhere and I think they're finding their footing in the new location. It's a good time!

    Ham sandwich
    Linda O.

    Dropped in on a Wednesday around 7:15pm. Not busy at all. We were seated way in the back . Our server Izzy was very pleasant and attentive. We placed our orders and the food came out rather quickly. The ham sandwich was very good however the KC Cheesesteak was only mediocre. The meat was very overcooked ( crispy) , very few mushrooms and onions and the white cheddar cheese was flavorless. I requested extra crispy tots and they delivered.

The interior is cozy and inviting, seating is limited, so plan accordingly. I got a seat at the bar and Zach did an awesome job of mixing me up some amazing drinks. I started with a Low Key Stunner.

I believe we all got two drinks while we were there. Price wise they were about what I expected and not way over priced like some other places. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks. The little trash can drink was fun and had great flavors. My only negative about the place is the seating. With almost 5 feet between the seats it was hard to have a conversation with others in my group, even worse with the pair of couples next to us yelling across to each other. I was more in their conversation then I was ours since I couldn't hear my friends.

    I was in the area and stumbled upon this cute little spot. It happened to be open so I went inside…read more I loved all the plants and the decor. The space is smallish but they do have bar seating in addition to seating throughout. The service was friendly and the drinks were great. They don't offer food, but they do offer cocktails, beer, wine, and mocktails. I went on a Sunday and they have a special menu called "Almost Monday." It's a smaller, simpler cocktail menu and the prices are very fair compared to other cocktail spots. I tried the Caipirinha (pineapple) and the Negroni sour. Both were good. My favorite between the two was the Negroni. It had a pretty color and wasn't too sour or strong. I'd def recommend it and get it again. Definitely stop in and check out this cute spot in Shawnee.

When you arrive there is parallel parking available outside the bar. When you walk in you'll feel like your bright, vibrant, and feels incredibly welcoming. Also, they have some really fun drinks as well that have been thoughtfully put together. We ended up sitting at the bar and I started with the Reformed Porn Star (vanilla vodka, bronson's tropical milk punch, passion fruit, Prosecco, citric acid and popping boba) which was by far my favorite drink and felt like I could have drank a couple more of these. Second I tried the Neo Cosmo (white rum, strawberry, cacao, coconut, rose hip, lime, bubble) which was good and was a fun drink with an ice cream shaped cup and a bubble on the top (meant to look like an ice cream cone). If you are in the area, this bar is a must try, the bartenders were awesome and took good care of us. Between the creative cocktails, fun atmosphere, unique floral setting, this was a memorable experience I'd definitely return for.

    We had a good, quick evening meal. Our server was quick to stop by and greet us to let us know…read moreshe'd be back soon. I like having a moment to get settled in at the table. She came back and took our drink orders and was back in a short time to take our food orders. Mom went with the Cuban sandwich and cole slaw. I had the Patty Melt with curly fries. There were a few tables that mostly already had their food, so it didn't take long for ours to arrive. Mom's Cuban was not really a Cuban sandwich. It might have had a few ingredients that you'd see on a Cuban, but it was not a Cuban. It was certainly edible, but needs a new name to avoid confusing expectations and reality. I had a small taste of the red pepper aoli on the sandwich and I liked it; she wasn't a big fan of the sauce. She liked the cole slaw, but it did have a different "flair" to it that I can't exactly pin point. I'm not a fan of celery seeds, so my tiny taste of it won't count. My curly fries were typical out-of-the-freezer fries. I'm not surprised, but they seemed to be the bottom of the bag with mostly tiny pieces. They had been overcooked a tad, which I appreciate them not being soggy, but they were just a tiny bit overly crunchy (likely because of them being tiny pieces), so they were a bit dry and could have used salt. Our table didn't have salt, I'm sure I could have requested salt since I did see some at another table. I made do with the ketchup. My sandwich was good. My preference would have been for the bread to have been toasted/grilled. It maybe had been grilled a bit, but not in a crispy way I'm used to for a patty melt. The burger was tasty and the grilled onions and mushrooms were really good. The dining room has high top tables at the entrance, then low top tables and booths if you go down a few steps to another area. They do have a door that is at street level to the lower dining area for guests who have difficulty with stairs. We don't end up in Shawnee for meals very often these days, but we appreciated the good service. The food was not bad; there are things we'd order differently, but it certainly was edible and not of poor quality.
