    I was super excited to try this bar! The outside area was great and even had connect 4(large) for the kids to play with. Our server was nice, but seemed a little busy(not as attentive). I tried one of their new drinks off their new seasonal menu, the rum and coke with cream. It was not my favorite, something about it was just off. When we received our appetizers I have to say the fried pickles had to be one of my favorites. The way they fry them are superb! When it came to the shrimp on my Caesar, it actually made me sick:( and my mom's mashed potato's were flavorless and she could not eat them. Other than food upsets it seemed like a lively place even on a week night!

    You have lots of choices in the Lenexa area for a burger or a beer, but Murphy's Corner has a little edge to it. Pretty good eats, great specials, and a full bar makes for a solid dining option for solos, couples, or families. You'll find Murphy's Corner nestled into a strip center facing 87th. The owner apparently did catering prior to opening this space and you can certainly tell with the food. The menu has lots of options, from standard pub fare to housemade pizza to some rather artisanal salads. I'd suggest the chicken sandwich, hand-breaded and fantastic. Or even the Hinkle, roast beef & thinly cut pork tenderloin with a sweet pepper aioli, is a fabulous sandwich. But don't miss that happy hour from 2:00-6:00 on weekdays. The smashburger special runs $6 for a single, and even that is a fair-sized burger, and maybe share a side with someone special. The smashed patty(s) come with the usual accoutrements, including a 'special sauce' that makes the smash a smash. Secret of the pros: get two patties, because it's worth the extra $3 and it's sensational. If there is any knock, then it might be the speed of service. Having stopped in several times, I don't think I have ever had the kind of turnaround that I can get many other places. But the food often makes it worth the wait, so I can only knock it for one star. Pricing is fair and certainly on the level with the area, parking is shared with other spots along the strip, and the atmosphere is wonderful. There are a TON of TVs in all directions, and you can even sit on the patio in nicer weather. It's a neighborhood spot with great food, great atmosphere, and great specials. Get there.

    Second visit was great, had the smash burger, fries, and side salad-- all delicious and love the happy hour prices!!

    Just updating my review. Still a super cool spot, above is all still true, however just having frustrations getting service from some of the staff when I go in on Fridays between 3 and 5pm. They're super nice but 20ish minutes without getting a drink order taken is definitely less than ideal, especially when it's not busy.

    The Staff is aways friendly and helpful. They will check up on you frequently. The Salad is a huge portion and I don't think I have ever been able to eat it all at once. But it makes for a great lunch for the next day. Later in the evening and on the weekend there is usually a live performer playing music. Also love going here with friends.

    Fish and Fish & Chips
    D G.

    As of September 5th, this is hands-down the best fish and chips I've had--not just in a Kansas City bar, but anywhere. The portions were massive: thick, tender cuts of fish wrapped in a perfectly hand-battered crust. The creamy dill tartar sauce was an inspired match, adding just the right pop of flavor with each bite. I like to alternate with a splash of malt vinegar, while dunking my fries into hot sauce and ketchup for extra kick. The fries themselves were a standout--served extra crispy and golden. The slaw was crisp, fresh, and a refreshing balance to the richness of the dish. Altogether, a remarkable plate that sets a new bar for fish and chips."

    Service has always been on point. This time we went for brunch. Served hot and fresh! Brunch cocktails served as well. Live music, Chiefs games and more!

    This is the old Calahan's that was picked up by a whole new crew and rebranded this last spring! The food is fantastic! And now that they are offering brunch expect even more varied kitchen options. Pictured you should find the shrimp and grits from their Brunch! The bar is a full service with quite a few options and extremely competent and accommodating bartenders who can shake you up most concoctions or pour your beer whichever is your pleasure. The staff is amazing! They are quick when they need to be but also attentive and even talkative when the atmosphere allows for it. This IS my new Neighborhood Bar. I look forward to seeing you here... I'll be in the cap. Also tell Jessica I sent you.

    HH SMASH BURGER

    The service was incredible!! The food was as all run the moment it was in the window so everything was served HOT. The Reuben was dare I say the best in KC. Plus Monday is all day happy hour it was $6!! Plenty of TVs showing sports so it is definitely a fun environment with great ambiance. I can't wait to come back :)

    This one was a take-out order. And this is some of the really hard-to-review stuff…read more Let's face it. Box sizes and to-go orders don't really have a good presentation or fit with the amount of food you normally get while dining in at the restaurant. But Burg and Barrel has it down. Everything travels very well. And they are good at ensuring they have the right boxes for the right items. Venting in place to keep the fries (or tots) from steaming up and getting soggy. Boxes that are big enough for the full sandwich and a full order of fries. Snagged a beer while I waited and didn't even make it all the way through before the bartender showed up with our to-go order. Then speaking of Ambiance... we got to sit in my awesome living room and wolf down burgers and a steak salad while watching the movie of choice for the night.

Their extensive beer offering is amazing, but cannot enjoy that during a work lunch! We went on a Thursday which is the Burger and fries combo special. Their basic cheeseburger comes with cheese, lettuce, tomato and choice of condiments. I ALWAYS get their amazing tots that are perfectly seasoned and crispy, but my coworkers upgraded to the massive onion rings. Between the large 1/2lb burger (cooked perfectly!) and sides none of us could completely finish our plates! I have never had a bad dish at either location. Our server, Chastity, was super nice and helpful and explained everything for the first timers in our group. She and Hailey do a great job and we are looking forward to trying another special! Next time I will take pictures before inhaling the top notch food! The only downside is the place is noisy, since the ceiling is wide open. Not a deal breaker for me or our group, but I could see it bothering someone more picky. Thank you!

Easy to find off of 87th, the space is not huge, but there's plenty of seating, especially at the bar. Daily specials and a happy hour that runs until 6 PM during the week, so there is plenty from which to choose. Burger night (Mondays?) is $2 off the specialty burgers, and I recommend that Diablo Burger if you like a little heat. Sliced jalapeños & pineapple atop a 1/2 lb. burger with a sweet heat sauce, this burger will hit just right. Service is friendly and fast and the prices are right on par with the market. You can get in and out with a couple of burgers and a couple of drinks during special time for around $45 and that's a pretty good deal with a better value to boot.

I saw they had $4 vodka Red Bulls, and that solidified my want to come here even more. I didn't order an appetizer because I wanted to get straight to the food. I went with the Fried Clucker and a side of waffle fries. This sandwich was unbelievable huge..smothered in their house sauce, which tasted like a milder version of buffalo sauce. I thought the flavor was good, but the fried skin was falling off the chicken. Every time I cut a piece, the breading would just slide right off. Maybe they need to brine the chicken better to help it stick more but it was no biggie, it still had a good flavor. My boyfriend ordered the chicken-fried chicken, and honestly... nothing too special about it. The mashed potatoes that came with it were flavorless at first, but once we added salt and pepper, they were tasty.
