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!

Love this brewery! The space is inviting and so cute inside…read more I didn't have any beer because I'm on a no-drinking kick at the moment, but they do have kombucha, which makes one feel like they aren't missing out! They offer board games, food, and live music on weekends. I ordered the charcuterie, and it was a generous portion for the price. Came with three different meats and cheeses, dried apricots, which I love, and this amazing goat cheese dip, along with marinated olives and plenty of crackers. Loved it, and I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more things. The staff is always friendly and seems like they have a lot of fun while they're working!

They have a cute little private room you can request that seats about 8-12. Service was quick and kind. We will definitely stop in again. The menu looked good, but we only sampled the beer this trip. Several Sundays they have jazz music, it was ending as we arrived. Don't hesitate to try them out!

Tall Trellis is an awesome family friendly brewery. They're frequently busy but they have a large…read morespace and a big parking lot. They have a large patio area where dogs and kids can play and run around (leased dogs, not the kids ). They have a stage outside and lots of individual seating and picnic tables. They have one of the best brewery patios in KC. The indoor space is also fairly large and they do have a room that can be rented for private events. And this year, they added an outdoor tent so you don't have to freeze but can still be outside. They have a few TVs for sports ball watching. Service is always fanatic. Despite being busy, they're always clean. They do offer food-tacos, pizzas, kids menu. I've not tried any but I always see people ordering so it must be pretty good. It's a brewery so obviously they have beer, but they also have nonalcoholic beverages and wine. I stick to the beer. My favorites are alway the stouts. They remind me of simpler old school stouts that aren't sweet and heavy. They have live music and other events so make sure to follow their social media and definitely check them out!

If you like ciders, you will love their variety options: traditional, blackberry, strawberry, peach, and pineapple. You can also buy them bottled at 5.5% to take home. Strawberry was great without being overly sweet; I mixed blackberry and strawberry for a fun twist. Pineapple was fun and tropical. Food truck is outside, but you can take the food indoors to eat. The 3-meat flatbread pizza was super flavorful and extra meaty! Elote corn dip is thick and creamy, yet tasty with tortilla chips. The salty Bavarian pretzel is HUGE and comes with ballpark nacho cheese. All go well with cider! They have wine and other mixed drinks as well. Parking is ample, and bathrooms with some AC are outdoors as well. I highly recommend visiting as soon as they open to beat any crowds. Fun time!

We enjoyed quesabirria tacos from a food truck for the first portion of our evening, then got wine slushies for the second part. She got the white sangria flavor and I got the peach. Each came with a little candy on top. Both were sweet and delicious, perfect for us since we don't loveeee wine. Every corner of KC Wine is intentionally designed for you to be able to relax, grab a drink, and chat. There is ample parking, but in a grass lot so be emotionally ready, as well as plenty of seating in a wide variety of choices! They have games like corn hole and giant chess. To celebrate the birthday they had complementary s'mores! I grew up in this area and have since moved away but I wish I still lived here so I could be a regular at this wonderful spot!

Growing up with a wiry, dusty, artificial tree stoked the desire to get a fresh one someday. Over…read morethe years my wife and I have cut our own, gone to various tree farms, and now with a toddler we wanted to keep it rolling. We saw Cedar Valley Forest and were stoked to try a new spot to get a fresh tree this year; their website shows hayrides, Santa, food trucks, cut-your-own local trees or pre-cut Frasier Firs, cookies, hot cocoa, a tree maze, pretty much the works if you ask me. Now the day we gutted out was just plain crappy weather. It was really cold, drizzly, and really just not pleasant, so maybe that factors in a bit here... but we were left a bit disappointed. There was no Santa which has me reliving some childhood trauma here. There were no food trucks. The tree maze didn't appear open for business. The walk from the parking lot to the forest was a muddy mess, and the grass connecting was basically a mini-river. :::At this point I think it's also safe to admit we might've been forcing the experience a bit::: We had to seek someone out to get some guidance on what we were doing, and they really couldn't have been nicer. Informative, warm and friendly all around. We walked the forest through some beautiful trees, although they were much too tall for our little house. Ended up with a pre-cut Frasier Fir from Michigan, and the crew told us they'd take care of everything, shake it, bag it, bring it up which was nice. I love the tree we picked, but it was about $10-$12 higher than the place we usually go to. We set up the tree which is a reliable way to have a Clark Griswold type of breakdown. We watered it with a gallon of water, but after 24 hours the water hadn't moved a millimeter. Reading about it, the tree needs a fresh cut to take in water and that is something the crew should've done when prepping our tree. So we had to take the whole freakin' thing down, go buy a bow saw, cut an inch off and re-do the process. Pretty frustrating. So if you go here, I hope your experience is better than mine, but it was pretty anti-climactic and I think I would've been better off popping over to a tree lot this year.

They have two separate venues to rent, one is fully outside and the other is meant for a smaller crowd but it has an indoor and outdoor venue. Overall, the lady was VERY helpful when it came to the rehearsal and times that we all needed to be there. And from what I understand, it was very affordable. Downfall is that it was WAY out there. Depending on what you're looking for and where you live, this would be a great place to plan an outdoor wedding.

Lysa was real quick to answer my inquiry about renting the facility though. Very expensive venue for what you get. Made even more expensive by never returning my $250 damage deposit with no explanation. Warning as many people as possible! As we do not have a lot of money so $250 is a lot for us to lose.
