The Vintage House provides everything you could need for hosting a party; glassware, utensils, flatware, serving platters, drink dispensers, and a full kitchen! There is plenty of seating in the 3 main rooms for guests and the decor is absolutely adorable. Lauri has everything so well organized and meets her guest at the venue before "checking in". The space can be rented either the entire day or for 1 of the 2 shifts (we rented 3pm-8pm). I would highly recommend this space for small parties in the Overland Park area!

Everything you need is right there in the house! (I suggest bringing a bag of ice and napkins!) This place is charming, homey, and the guests loved it! The backyard area is a wonderful expansion of the house with hanging lights and furniture if you want to eat outside. We will definitely be using Vintage House again!!

The staff here was very helpful, they were there when you needed them, but not so much that they were in your face all the time. Perfect balance. I had some burnt ends, and they were tasty. I expected to load up on those for the evening, but I decided to try the famous Kansas City rubs I had heard so much about. BAM! I get it now! These ribs put every BBQ rib I have had before now to shame. My tastebuds now understand what ribs should taste like. It was a magical cross between perfection and awesome. I ate until I was ready to split a seam. Absolutely incredible. If you can get yourself here, do it... the food is amazing!

They do have a concession stand, and there's a food truck outside--not sure the truck is this venue's modus operandi.

Previously a movie theater in a former life, this venue has been renovated to a perfect large size stage for live music, which they book for most weekends with a large variety of music genres.

Upstairs is a discovery room that I want to like so much but it's just so poorly run. It seems to me that there's not enough staff or funding maybe to keep everything organized and neat so a lot of it is disheveled or there's stuff missing.

My two year old was also a little fussy and I felt a bit judged by the staff. They kept running over to me to "make sure" he was supervised.

This place is a beautiful and gorgeous venue for a wedding and reception. My wife and I just got…read moremarried there a little over a week ago and we were nothing but pleased with how everything looked. Due to the natural beauty of the barns interior, we didn't have to do a lot of decorating. We couldn't have been happier choosing this location for a new chapter in our lives. They also allow your own vendors for your event which is now to have that flexibility. There are few requirements that differ from other venues as this place is a registered historical site, but they are nothing major or very costly that makes or breaks your event. As a heads up, this place is rented out hourly so it's challenging to decorate for a wedding the same day of the event, but it can be done! We highly recommend this place!

The facility offers meeting and wedding space for up to 200ppl and can be booked through the City of Lenexa which keeps the cost affordable.We booked the wedding on a Friday evening which saved even more costs. Saturday weddings book a year out so you'll need to contact them early or camp out to book a spot with the City. Many images can be googled online to show you the facility's offerings. We didn't need to do much for decor as the facility is so clean and classy with brick walls, exposed beam ceiling in the main hall, a full kitchen, meeting rooms for the wedding party to get ready etc. An outdoor courtyard can be used for the ceremony also although it's along I-35 for traffic noise. We did experience problems with the set up, AV equipment and evening staffing but these issues were addressed satisfactorily when we brought them up to management. We'd definitely recommend this air conditioned barn to any bride and groom.

December 2025 visit - I've always been terrible at games, but when my family suggested this as a…read moregroup activity, I figured why not give it a try? Turns out, a team of four is the perfect size. They have about 40 different game rooms, and we managed to get through at least 25 in two hours. Fair warning: you may or may not be sore the next day! Each room features a mix of physical, mental, and skill-based challenges. Half the fun and sometimes the stress is figuring out what you're supposed to do once you step inside. I didn't know much about Brkthrough beforehand and showed up wearing boots, definitely a mistake. Good grip athletic shoes are best since some challenges involve climbing and running. There's a reason they have you sign a waiver before you start! You're competing against other teams at the same time for the highest score, which adds to the excitement. Overall, it was fun and occasionally challenging. Some rooms were a bit boring, while others literally gave you a headache. The key is to relax and not overthink it, unless your friends and family are super competitive! I was a able to reserve the tickets online one day prior, and it's a great spot for team building, birthdays, or any kind of celebration.

On the day of, they were not prepared for our event. The tables and chairs were not set up, our decorator couldnt even start setting up when she got there. They did not take responsibility for this at all and were very rude when we asked why the room was not set up at the time they said it would be. The space was also not cleaned properly. I had to ask for floors to be mopped. The bridal suite had food on the floors and carpets. There were also a pair of dirty socks in one of the rooms. The bathroom did not have a doorknob, and they also did not stock and toilet paper in the bathroom. There were also many issues with communicating with staff. We asked that the a/c be turned up so it would he cool enough for our guests, and the owner made a rude comment about his electric bill. During our event, it got so hot, our guests were using napkins to fan themselves. There were many issues with the sound system and microphones. Guests couldnt hear the speeches. No help was offered from staff. To top it all off, they started setting up for another event during our reserved time. The worst part of it all is that they never to accountability. The only made excuses and further put the blame on us.

They even have a spiral slide from the restaurant down to the bottom floor. We enjoyed the tasting room and cocktails outside where we could hear music from Knuckleheads next door. We'd go again and bring more people. So much fun!!

We ordered from the RW menu and off the regular menu. The food was good. The portions were small. But the service continued to be poor. At one point, a server, not ours, walked by and grabbed my drink but I wasn't finished with it. Just those little things that add up that make the experience not great. It's a fun atmosphere and will try them again for hopefully a better experience.
