The tables, black with black booths. French movie posters with beautiful frames line the wall. It is the most comfortable "bar" I've ever visited. The menu, affordable hand crafted drinks. The owner explained that menu choices are made together and the menu varies. The drinks cost 5$-14$. Other places with hand crafted drinks are 18$. Cheval serves only drinks. It's not a bar to drink a bunch of shots. It's a place to order a drink, and comfortably talk or reflect. I had Islands In The Stream. It is a strawberry drink with hints of watermelon. It was refreshing to sip and talk. For this, everything is perfection. But wait, use the bathroom. It's the cutest little parlor you've ever seen.

Even on an extremely hot day, it was a nice spot, although we didn't stay long because of the heat. I'll definitely be back once the temperatures cool down. The bartender was friendly, but I wasn't a fan of their check policy. They don't split checks, and each party receives one bill. You can pay with up to five different cards, but the total is split evenly between them. Overall, a great rooftop bar.

For a holiday happy hour, a few friends and I decided to check out The House (which is owned also by the owners of Lulu's, next door) was a great and very festive options--everything from lights to decorations (even dancing motorized Christmas figures!) to themed drinks. I had a cinnamon tequila sour that did not disappoint, and our cocktails were all spot on. I also learned that if you wanted, you can order food from Lulu's from The House and someone will deliver it over to you (if you're fine just chilling and don't want to walk over to Lulu's)! As for the location, I cannot wait to come back when it is nicer out because they have a large front area with heaters, seats, and just a general ambiance of chill. If it is colder, be aware that the house is small--so larger groups may find it harder to grab seats! I'm happy that I got to experience this place and it is definitely now on my list of places to go when I need a low-key drink! Thanks everyone at The House for a great experience and can't wait to see you next time!

The ambience was excellent, they've taken care to make it cozy and elevated. The drinks were fresh, cold and well mixed.

Will be trying the bites on my next visit!

Overall it was cozy, but also big enough so not noisy at all, good vibes music playing and also very family friendly. There's a space on the side for families to play games. We ordered two cocktails, one Passion Punch (rum based) and one Black Honey (gin based). Both were really good, and I especially liked the passion punch - it was sweet, smoky, and had a bit of spice. Our server was also very nice, he shared amusing stories of his shift during the World Cup events - and was very attentive with his services. I would come back to visit this bar next time I'm in town.

They have classics mixed in with local creative options. The menu consists of delicious versions of what you'd expect to find at a bar - nachos, flatbread, quesadillas, etc. But go for the whipped goat cheese served with ibis bakery sourdough (made locally)! I can't wait for another reason to head downtown for a beautiful evening! *Call ahead if you'd like to bring in outside food like a birthday cake! They had all kinds of policies!*

I've driven past the Fern Bar countless times, but had never stopped in. Truthfully, I knew next to…read morenothing about it. That changed yesterday, when Diana Condori, the bar manager, was named a 2026 James Beard Outstanding Professional in Cocktail Service semifinalist. As we love supporting restaurants and bars that receive that kind of recognition, my wife and I headed to Fern Bar that evening. I was especially curious what exactly a "sugarcane and agave bar" meant. We arrived around 5:30pm and found only a handful of guests inside. After congratulating the bartender who first served us, he mentioned that Diana was working that night and would stop by to meet us. During our conversation, Diana shared that she didn't even know she had been nominated. She woke up Tuesday to a call from owner Bryan Arri, who said he had big news and was coming over. Her first thought was that something terrible had happened--like the bar had burned down. Instead, he showed up with coffee and told her she was a James Beard honoree. Diana is originally from Bolivia and has lived in Kansas City most of her life, with the exception of time spent in San Francisco during the pandemic. She further refined her cocktail craft through local pop-ups in Kansas City under the name Condor's Cove. When Bryan was preparing to open Fern Bar, he reached out to bring her onto the team. The printed cocktail menu immediately reminded me of the Monarch and the Mercury Room--not surprising given Bryan's background at Manifesto and the Monarch. Thoughtful, intentional, and clearly designed for people who appreciate serious cocktails. We planned on having one or two drinks but ended up staying for three, thanks to an outstanding lineup and a memorable conversation with Diana. We tasted: * No Fly Zone - Rum, agave, pineapple foam * Mr. Collage - Smooth, elegant, egg-white cocktail * Three Negroni Lunch - Bitter, boozy, and beautifully balanced * Pendergast No. 4 - Complex and spirit-driven * It's Bananas - Banana liqueur with bright tropical notes * Off the Rails - Creative and well-executed rum/agave cocktail One downside of many cocktail-forward bars is the lack of food, but Fern Bar offers two varieties of mini burritos for $4--just enough protein to keep things balanced while indulging. Great concept, exceptional service, and truly memorable drinks. Check it out--and be sure to say hello to Diana.

Then I tried the tiramisu but it was too sweet. I then went to the Pomodoro - ingenious!!! The red on the glass was so creative. Also delicious. We saw little colorful drinks being ordered by others and inquired about it. They were equally creative shots. I got the Titan and tried the Collisto. Both very good. Highly recommend! Want to return in my next trip.
