Also came here on a Saturday night in October, with a packed house, an underground haunted speakeasy and merriment in the air, also aided by some delicious in house brews. I'll come back anytime, particularly for the excellent bock. It doesn't hurt that the servers are super friendly, seating is plentiful (maybe not the most comfortable chairs) and there are pinball machines.

I didn't even know this existed! It is an actual brewery on Independence Square. Their menu (mostly…read moredifferent beers and a few drinks) is small. But I loved the friendly service and the space itself. It's wonderful for a band-which was why I was there. There's a hallway of art work, with an art studio. Down the hall from there is a window with the adjacent restaurant selling a large variety of flat breads. Again, more artwork. Then you see the barrels and the quaintly decorated bathroom doors. Really, it's worth it to see. I really like 3 Trails Brewery and will return.

Fun dive bar close to Kauffman Stadium. I came in after a Royals game for a quick bite to eat and…read morewas welcomed right away. Lots of folks here tonight for a Monday. Score has pool tables and darts which seemed popular. They also had karaoke going on which always seems to draw a crowd. The kitchen was open late and I was starving so I ordered a steak salad, definitely recommend as it was cooked to order with a nice amount steak on top. Prices were on par with sports bar prices. The bartender was very friendly and encouraged me to go up and sing. After some liquid courage I got up the nerve to sing a sing. The karaoke host was cool and welcoming too. Score was a great score indeed!

I really want to love this place. I really do. It is a diamond in a goat's ass. Posted up like a…read moretrap on 40 just East of Blue Ridge Cut Off...for real. Pleasantly surprising, the place draws a demographic outwardly decent people it seems. So far so good. Beer...cold. Service...above average. Why a 3-star? The food. The menu brags of hand-breaded bone-in wings. If they are hand breaded, then I should be able to get them naked (no breading). They seem to have this confused here also for (no sauce). The wings are available with breading only; which means...you got it...prefab, breaded, frozen chicken wings (not what was on the menu). It shined through shamelessly. 1. So salty I couldn't eat them 2. Mushy meat I sent them back and got the fish and chips. It was just as good. Gnarly frozen fries with the weird crispy chemical on them. The fish was mediocre. Disappointed. Come for drinks. They serve them up promptly in a surprisingly clean environment (considering the area) and the staff and clientele are decent folks. Good place to check out sports and live music. I'll be back.

We LOVE Erin's Pub! When we lived nearby it was one of our weekly spots, but since moving we don't…read moreget there as much unfortunately. The food goes beyond being just "good bar food." It's good food period! Erin's has the best mozzarella sticks anywhere that I've tried (and believe me, I've had a lot of fried cheese). Their Taco Thursdays are also a regular craving I have. Service is always friendly and fast, even when they're busy. Shoutout to Carrie and Kirby - they're rockstars! Personal opinion, I do think the overuse of AI in their recent advertisements is a bit much. I liked the unedited pics of their real food they used to post better than the new cartoonish pics. But just my opinion - doesn't change the fact that Erin's is one of the best spots around! A must try!

We found wine down 109, and it had a pretty good rating so we thought we would give it a try. It was a super friendly place and the owner/bartender was very pleasant, and visited with us for quite a while. I tried some of their specialty drinks. Each were very good and unique. If you're looking for a good hometown, feel in a bar, this is the place. The prices are very reasonable as well.

When we ordered door dash and the mashed potatoes was not included it was a major disappointment. We called the restaurant and before all the words were said we were told to take it up with door dash. No apology that the restaurant forgot half my meal. No offer to let us come pick up some mashed potatoes. Just an automatic response that they did not care. The bag is sealed shut after the restaurant the packs the food inside. That to me is not the fault of door dash but someone at the restaurant. Yet they couldn't take ownership of their own f up. I always love their chicken fried chicken but without the mashed potatoes and just gravy it just wasn't that good. Just like their attitude.

Plus, the happy hour prices are attractive and the 'portion sizes' for the drinks are more than ample. You know what else is good? The pricing. Happy hour prices aside, Saints-Independence is offering a price point that is a bit below market for their fare, and in these times, that alone can draw you in. But, ah, there's the rub. The food is pretty average, so it's a good thing that you likely aren't going to squabble over the bill. Bar & grille food isn't usually supposed to blow your hair back, but Saints has a lot of fried options that seem under-seasoned and slow to be delivered, sooo not exactly prime. The servers are friendly, but if they have to cover the patio and the bar/dining room, then it's not a surprise that things move slowly. It's a great spot to meet, given that it's just off of I-70, but join for a drink & maybe an appetizer, and my guess is that you'll come to the same conclusion: it's just...OK.
