    Sliders and Bacon cheeseburger in the background
    Taylor T.

    A few years ago I had given The Bar a 3 Star but now I can confidently say it's a 4 star in my book. My friend and I stopped in recently on a snowy day and the place was lively and the service was on point. I forgot they had curly fries which are indeed the most superior fry in the game so, that's a big plus for me. But, what really shone through was the Chicken Caesar Wrap, it was filling and fresh. I've been on the hunt for a standout Chicken Caesar Wrap ever since they really started trending online and this one hit most of the right marks. The grilled chicken wasn't rubbery and the ratio of protein to lettuce was on point. I enjoyed that the creamy tangy caesar dressing wasn't too plentiful, if it's overdone then the wrap becomes soggy. The only thing that would have upped the ante would have been if the tortilla was grilled because it was a tad gummy. Other than that this wrap checked all the boxes. The curly fries on the out hand were near perfection, seasoned just like one of my favorite fast food restaurants and crispy without being oily. The Bar is what its namesake says, it's a neighborhood joint that serves "bar food" nothing stuffy or fancy but, great drinking food...or if you're not drinking your loss...still, the American classics are done right and you shouldn't be disappointed if you order an appetizer, burger or wrap here.

    Breakfast burrito
    Allie F.

    We came for brunch over the weekend, and while the brunch menu may be small, they definitely make up for it in flavor and portion size! I ended up getting the breakfast burrito with their fried potatoes and it was perfect! Their potatoes are some of the best breakfast potatoes I've had at a restaurant, super crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The burrito itself was done very well also, well seasoned and loaded with filling. I also recommend getting their $4 mimosas, they definitely don't skimp on the champagne! All in all, it was a perfect patio brunch - food was great, service was great, and the food came out very quickly!

    Loaded fries
    Monica R.

    A great sports bar! Grab a drink and a bite to eat, loaded fries are my favorite, watch a game inside or relax out on the patio. The atmosphere is always chill. The servers are friendly, it's an all around good place to hangout with friends.

    Awesome neighbor bar! The burger was perfect cooked. And the wings are packed with flavors. The patio is a plus.

    Just as great as the other locations. Obsessed w their Bacon Jam Burger. Comes w a side (love that they have healthy & more decadent options,) and is big enough for 2 or to take home some for later. Can get loud- esp on a Saturday during NCAA March Madness. Few tables outside too, which I always love.

    Spicy Avocado BLT Burger with Curly Fries
    Jordan B.

    For a bar, this place is great! Our server was awesome and made recs for us! The burgers were delish and unique but not over the top. The spicy avocado burger actually had a decent spice to it, which was nice to get! The star was that Mac and cheese though! I feel like a lot of places kinda throw in the towel with Mac & cheese and it's not easy to find a really good one in a lot of places (might be a controversial opinion...up for recs if you have em!) but this was soooo good! It was a white cheddar mac and was bursting with flavor! It was good food, quick and yummy! No complaints and we will definitely be back to watch some games!

    It was extremely busy that night, so needless to say, being a smaller place, was quite loud. The service was prompt even with the crowd. The food was good...typical bar type food, but that is what we ordered...it was very good. I would love to come back again on a not so busy night.

    Since most of the breweries in the area close at 9 on a week night it was nice to find a place that was open later. The had plenty of TV's to watch the game that was on. Even with 20 or so people in there watching the game it didn't seem load and overly Sportsed. There were a few table that were there not watching the game and they didn't seem to have a problem having a conversation a the table. Finding myself a bit hungry at 10:30 at night it was night to be able to get food that wasn't fast food. I ordered the Sliders per the bartenders suggestion. They were a good side and had good flavor.

    Smoked Turkey Wrap

    The wrap was absolutely delicious, and the service was impressively fast and very friendly.

    Blackened shrimp Mac n cheese
    Sara C.

    I came here for a quick bite to eat last night after the chiefs game and to celebrate my birthday with family. Great experience! The young man taking care of us was very charming and we were impressed by the service he provided. I got the mac n cheese with blackened shrimp for my entree. The macaroni was *mwah* chef's kiss, but I felt like the shrimp was a little over seasoned. It wasn't bad, but I kinda wish I'd gotten the chicken. Overall 8/10. Since it was my birthday, we all split an order of the funnel cake fries. Another *mwah* chef's kiss moment. I'm not really a big dessert person and have only had funnel cakes once or twice before, but these were special. They were kind of like skinny, little churros. I loved the flavor and texture. The caramel dipping sauce that it was served with was also really good. 10/10. This is a fun little spot for meeting friend for drinks or a sports game. Menu has a lot of different options. I'd also like to add that the cups they give you are really cool as well!

    Great little bar & grille establishment in the Shawnee Mission West area. If you're looking for a…read morelocal watering hole, a great burger, or maybe some bar trivia, then Beck's is the place. 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. If you have a kid at SM West, then you might make this a pre-game event spot or a place to have refreshments afterwards. Great spot!
