Drastic Measures

✨ Drastic Measures & Wild Child: A Sanctuary for Great Drinks and Even Greater Energy ✨ Stepping into Drastic Measures & Wild Child feels like walking into a carefully blended cocktail of beauty, calm, and connection. The moment you enter, the zen atmosphere wraps around you like velvet—dim lighting, curated playlists, and a vibe that whispers chill, you’re welcome here. It’s a space where individuality isn’t just accepted—it’s celebrated! 🍸 The cocktails? Pure artistry. Unique, layered, and dangerously tasty. Whether you’re sipping a smoky mezcal creation or a vibrant, fruit-forward twist you didn’t know you needed, every drink tastes like intention. It’s clear the bar team isn’t just mixing—they’re composing. But what truly sets this place apart are the humans behind the bar. The bartenders radiate warmth and personality, making every customer feel like more than just a ticket. Max, in particular, elevated the experience for me and my twin sister in ways that went beyond the pour. As Black women, we felt genuinely seen and valued, not just welcomed but deeply appreciated. That level of attentiveness and respect isn’t common—and it matters. 👏 The manager, effortlessly chill, sets the tone for an environment that feels more like community than commerce. You can feel it in the way the team interacts—with each other and with the guests. It’s clear this place is led with care, and the vibe flows from the top down. Between the unforgettable drinks, the inclusive energy, and tunes that set the perfect mood, Drastic Measures & Wild Child is more than a cocktail bar—it’s an experience. I’ll continue to visit as the experience is always enjoyable.

One of Our Favorite places!!! They have so many cool drinks all of them so Yuummyy!!! Max helped us a lot, explained the drinks and each drinks was fantastic!!! We Love this place!!! Thank you and keep up with the amazing job!!!! You will keep seeing us and we will bring more friends to enjoy it!!!

Waited outside for 45 minutes. In that time we saw 4 women (3 together, and another ten minutes later getting dropped off by a Lyft) cut the line and walk right inside. They didn't come back out in those 45m so they must have been sat and served. Meanwhile we saw over the course of that 45 minute wait, 2 groups of two leave... And the line never moved. I get the impression these people got their James Beard and think they don't need to worry about service anymore.

Great experience every time! Nate was amazing and helped with drink suggestions. I always suggest Drastic Measures to anyone looking for a good time.

The first night I wandered in to Drastic Measures, I couldn’t believe I was in Shawnee, with the moody, yet somehow still easy going vibes (truly flawless). After trying the Kill Bill, I kept saying to my friend, “I can’t believe a bar of this caliber is HERE right in my hometown!” They always have something new in the works, so it’s easy to find an excuse for another return visit. The whole staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and will take the time to help you choose a cocktail that suits your personal tastes. The drinks are never boring, and I love the “give-back” philosophy of the owners as they often have events where sales are donated to local non-profits.

Stopped by on Saturday evening and was seated immediately. They have comfy seating and a great atmosphere. Our server checked on us several times and both of the drinks that I ordered came out super fast and were very tasty. Definitely check this place out if you are in the area.

Came here with a friend just to have a few drinks , and boy let me tell you!! This place is amazing , drinks were a 10/10. Ambiance was 10/10 and the service was amazing.. would definitely be come back here.. what are you waiting for , you better head over

Drastic Measures is a spectacular bar with a captivating speakeasy vibe. The entrance with an old-fashioned knock on the door if the light is green is a charming touch that sets the tone for a memorable experience. Inside, the dim lighting creates an intimate atmosphere that makes you forget about the outside world. The service throughout the visit was impeccable and made me feel like a valued guest. But the true standout at Drastic Measures is the creative and delicious drink menu. The mixologists have created fantastic cocktails that I've never tasted before. My personal favorite was the "College dropout," which tasted like a perfect mix of spices and alcohol. If you're looking for a sophisticated and enjoyable night out, Drastic Measures should be at the top of your list.

Every drink was exceptional: well worth the wait in the red-drenched holding room. Great service, too.

I really do not know what took me so long to get here! This little place is fantastic. A quick pop-in with a friend just to try it and see... Now that I am hooked I will be back again and again to try all the cocktails, which keep changing season after season! The place is Quaint and a great little area for quiet conversations. The setting while not intimate mimics it perfectly and you are in a full bar with seemingly no one else. It is a very nice vibe! Oh and lots of NA drinks for Katie! Check their website as that is where their menu lives even at the shop!

Stopped in with a friend last night & we had a great time. I got the Gravity's Rainbow and it was delicious. The staff were super nice & we enjoyed chatting with them & each other while sipping our drinks. The bar is clean & has a nice, dark vibe. Perfect for hanging out at the end of a long day.

While not the most hidden of speakeasies, Drastic Measures still offers a decent experience. The entrance has a light that will be either green or red to indicate if there is seating available. The staff was also super friendly and offered opinions on what cocktails to order. If you're looking for a cozy bar with nice people, Drastic Measures should totally be on your list. But if you're specifically looking for a great speakeasy experience around Kansas City, there are better options available. You can see more of our experience on our YouTube travel channel: https://youtu.be/A508y__Cka4

I had the Lil Easy and thought it was delicious. My husband got the Campfire, which neither of us loved... but the smoky taste is definitely a personal preference. Loved the simple, yet elegant delivery of the drinks. I really love Drastic Measures involvement and inclusivity of different communities within Kansas City. That said, I was disappointed in the service. It felt like customers were being churned. The servers were fine, they were moving people. That said, they were all a bit cold, and a bit of a cold atmosphere in turn. I'd try Drastic Measures again, for sure. But would hope for maybe some improved service and ambience.

Awesome little speakeasy cocktail bar located in the newly bustling downtown area of Shawnee. I'd been want to pop in to check it out for a while and was in the area with nothing to do so decided to stop in. You'll probably be waiting. I would honestly just expect it. They have instructions posted on the door but basically it's red light = wait, green light = knock and wait. But we didn't wait too long, maybe 20-30 minutes. They have a great selection of cocktails. Some smokey, some sweet, some more boozy than others. I feel like they have something for everyone. I tried the Thots N Prayers: curry infused mezcal, cacao, mango, and lime. It was smokey, smooth, and refreshingly fruity all at the same time. I'd definitely recommend it. I also tried a sip of the Campfire: bourbon, peated scotch, amaro averna, sfumato, and cane sugar. I don't know what half that stuff is but this was a boozy, smokey, and smooth cocktail that would be awesome with some bbq. The interior was small but they make good use of the space. You may share a spot with others but it's always fun meeting new people. The chairs are comfy and the decor is a bit dark and moody. The staff were all friendly and efficient. I will def be back because there's way more drinks that I want to try!

I live near here and wanted to check it out for my birthday. They were putting on a Jurassic world theme and all of the cocktails were dinosaur themed. This is a small cocktail bar so definitely arrive early if you'd like a seat without waiting. The servers were on top of it, very friendly and quick. All of the drinks were unique and well worth the money. Plus the ambiance couldn't be beat. I'll definitely be back to try their normal menu soon!

Really enjoyed the vibe of this place. Small menu of choices, but the drinks were good!

I don't know why it took me so long to visit Drastic Measures, but I was absolutely blown away by the experience. Dropped in on a cool Friday evening and only had a short line waiting inside by the front door. Love the usage of the chandelier to help communicate capacity. Chatted quite a bit with our server once seated and shared that I'm a whiskey/bourbon fan. He strongly recommended the Campfire or the Maricopa...so I ended up ordering both. Word to the wise - both drinks pack a punch in totally different ways. The Campfire truly tasted like a camp fire in your mouth, with a subtle smoky aftertaste. The Maricopa had hints of corn and green chile with a touch of sweetness. The service provided throughout the evening was phenomenal and I cannot wait to come back!

One of the managers at the Monarch Bar on the Plaza highly recommended this place, so of course we decided to go. I've been here a few times recently this summer, and always have a great experience. The drinks are unique but still approachable, and I love that they mix it up each quarter. Not all of the drinks have been my favorite, but still happy I ordered them. It's not on the same level as the Monarch, Verdigris, or Mercury Room, but it's a nice local neighborhood speakeasy. Sometimes it gets busy, especially Thursday - Saturday night. Wednesdays are a bit more slow. Servers have always been welcome and accommodating. Haven't experienced the crankiness or rushed feeling that others described- maybe those people are gone now or they've been retrained. I don't think there's anything polarizing or offensive at this speakeasy bar. It's a cool place to get a drink and get away from it all.

Drastic Measures is a great bar. They have a rotating menu of unique concoctions that are always delicious. The best cocktail I've ever had was here! They also host some cool events and give back to great local causes. The ambiance is really cool and the service is always fast and kind.

Great drinks and great vibe - we enjoyed the Hanukah pop up! We didn't have a long wait to get in either!

It's Friday night and we stop here to check out the place. Parking across the street. Upon arrival there was a red light, meaning there is a wait to get in, no seating available. The wait wasn't too long, about 10-15 minutes to get in. Inside are multiple lounge seating. I say capacity of 50 people at most. The bar is in the back. One person taking the drink orders and one person doing the clearing of table. Cocktail drinks are amazing. Pricing a little higher than other places. Light music playing in the background. Nice place to sit and talk with your friends.

Visited this James Beard nominee for Outstanding Bar. Every bar has limited seating, but this bar keeps its door locked from walk-in traffic. Staff allows entry based on adherence to strict occupancy. The locked door and red light are a clue to wait patiently. The bar serves gin-based drinks. The menu was only 5-6 items and all cost $15 each. I had a delicious coconut macaroon martini and two other cocktails. Staff was friendly and even tried to make a cocktail for a vodka lover. I have no plans to return, but I appreciated the experience. A fellow customer recommended sister bar Swordfish Tom's, which operates similarly. Up next.

It was our first time coming here and we thoroughly enjoyed it! When you enter, there's instructions saying if the light is red then you have to wait and the host will let you in but if it's green you can knock. It was red the whole night but the host let us know when there was a table. We sat down in our seats and our waiter got our drinks. I had the all pinks drink and I thought it was going to be pink but it turned out more yellow lol. Not a big deal but I really liked it! It didn't taste much like alcohol which I loved and it was a little sweet. The ambiance is really cool and dark. I liked the environment and how chill it was. Staff was nice and I would coke back!

Wayyy hype, low delivery. Expect a wait (30+min at 4:30 on a Wednesday). It's not packed inside, they just only have 1 bartender and 1 bar back for ~30 people at tables. The menu is unique (was Jewish themed when we went), but 2/3 of the drinks we ordered just tasted like anything at a halfway decent cocktail bar. Service is super slow too - we waited 30min after sitting down before we got our first round. This one's a skip for me.

My wife, who is our family's mixologist, had been wanting to go to Drastic Measures for some time. After learning last week they were a finalist for a James Beard Award in the Outstanding Bar category, we made a beeline to DM this past Saturday. I dropped my wife off at the curb right before 4pm when the doors open. She was lucky to snag two of the coveted bar seats that allows you to watch the magic right before your eyes. When you open the front door, you'll see a sign that references a light above the door to the bar. When it's green, there is room inside. Red means you wait until space is available. There are 13 drinks on the menu, each for $13. Other than serving water with your drinks, don't expect any bar snacks. Justin was mixing the drinks when we arrived and was super friendly and helpful in introducing us to the menu and explaining what makes their cocktails so amazing. Nate was serving the tables and was a man of constant motion during the entire two hours we spent savoring seven cocktails. My wife who is a bourbon fan, loved the Measured Approach and Little Easy, she was so-so on Manhattan Transfer. I ordered the Kill Bill, Substitute Teacher and the Deadeye Diaz. Kill Bill is the most popular cocktail, a true house signature. This tequila drink packs some heat. The Deadeye Diaz is a perfect complement, made with mezcal. The Substitute Teacher is described as tasting like a pb&j. We shared our last drink, the Duck & Cover, a Scandinavian-inspired drink with Aquavit for herbal notes and Aperol for its bittersweet flavor. A nice closer for the afternoon! We can't wait to return to taste the remaining six cocktails. Cheers!

Drastic Measures is certainly a unique cocktail destination in KS! When you walk in the initial door they use a light system, red = wait at the door, green = go & and the host will bring you in and seat you. The wait varies it could be 10-20 minutes or you can get in right away it really just depends! Now, the service was impeccable nothing to criticize or comment on. The server was so friendly and you can tell Drastic Measures run like a well oiled machine. The mood/vibe was absolutely epic. Picture stone walls, moody, ambient lighting, Thundercat playing in the background, and just a plethora of drinks. Now, I do think the drinks at drastic measures are good but I prefer the drinks at Wild Child more. Overall my experience here was wonderful and we had such a great time. Highly recommend especially if you like cognac, whiskey (dark liquor).

Lovely speakeasy bar with great tasting drinks. I loved how you have to read and follow directions to come in. The place is small so I wouldn't want to come with a big group. This time was just 2 of us and I thought that was perfect place to go for a few drinks. It's a nice treat because you'll have drinks that you won't necessarily make at home...so it's really nice.

Over the past year or so that Drastic Measures has been open they have really mustered up a ton of buzz around KC. For a while it seemed as if everyone I knew was posting about this little speakeasy-esque bar in Shawnee. It had this air of elegance and mystique about it. For my birthday, I thought it would make a perfect spot for a before dinner drink so we headed that way around 5 for happy hour. When we arrived there was already a wait and I should note that my husband was pretty annoyed that while they said "just a few minutes" it ended up being closer to a 30 minute wait. I wasn't so peeved though, it was the holidays and folks wanted to check out their hannukah themed pop up bar. Once we got in it was only bar seating - again, my husband wishes we could have told them we'd prefer a table, but I thought it was okay and enjoyed my drinks. Out of the few drinks we sampled one was a homerun, one was okay and the other (the everything bagel old fashioned) we both agreed was a miss. Overall the bartenders were a bit cold, and when you have this much hype we just felt it should have been a more perfect experience. Will I go back? Absolutely! I'd like to try their regular menu and see how it is when it's not a pop up. I'm glad there is a spot like this in Johnson County though, and hope they continue to grow and improve with time.

Drastic Measures will NOT disappoint if you are interested in fancy cocktails that come in combinations that you may not expect! I was so happy to finally get a chance to check out this place after a year of hearing about this from others. The cocktails were fabulous, and everyone there was friendly and super helpful! Ambiance was just what I needed after a long day at work! I stopped by on a Tuesday after work--around 4:30 pm, and it wasn't very busy, but I was told that this is unusual. When you get to the bar, you start in a sort of waiting area, and you are told to look at the chandelier above you --if it is green, you knock and wait to be let in, but if it is red, then the bar is full and you'll get let in when there is space! So I knocked and was let in, as the chandelier was green! After getting inside, I was welcomed warmly with conversation! I looked through the menu, which had a lot of different spirit options with a lot of interesting combinations of ingredients (goat cheese rinsed tequila? Yes, please!). I tried the Culture Club (goat cheese washed blanco tequila, macerated strawberry, lemon), and the Kill Bill (tequila, pineapple, ginger thai chile, lemon, salt)--both were AMAZING. Definitely recommend asking for suggestions from the bartenders because they know EXACTLY what they are doing back there! Thanks to everyone there, and so glad to find this little gem in Shawnee!

I'd like to keep this review short and sweet. I can be a hard critic which results in me not visiting establishments after one or more occasions. Honestly, if I have to wait for a drink like I did on this occasion outside in late December in Kansas then this must be something special. It's no surprise Drastic Measures is no longer a hidden gem in Shawnee. I've never been there without having to wait outside to snag a seat behind that heavy entrance door. The wait is always worth the experience, ambience, hospitality, rotating amazing drinks options, and the constant feel that you're in the right place at the right time. My fiancé and I went for Hanukkah menu and ordered the following mouth-watering, eccentric, and mind-blowing drinks...fyi I normally don't order more than 1 drink. Me: 1. Rugelach - raisin & fig infused rum, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon, almond & cream cheese foam 2. Sufganiyah - raspberry doughnut infused cognac, macerated raspberry, lemon juice, aquafaba Fiancé: 1. Everything Old Fashioned - bourbon, everything bagel spiced syrup, bitters 2. Rugelach - raisin & fig infused rum, brown sugar, cinnamon, lemon, almond & cream cheese foam

Such an honor to visit Drastic Measures while visiting the KC area. I met the co- owner Justin, five years ago and it was a joy to taste his award winning cocktails. I really love the space. It is sexy, sultry, and dark. The playlist was amazing, the staff is astute and I enjoyed everything about the unique craft cocktails. I will definitely be returning when I come back to the area.

We had a really lovely time at Drastic Measures. Love the vibe. The owner at the bar was so friendly - we were waiting and he offered us some drinks which was so kind of him! The drinks are so well crafted and I love the vibe and quirky bathroom decor! I never expected to see such cool patents - I'll let you discover for yourself what those patents are the daquiri was strong yet so refreshing, and we got a few other drinks that unfortunately I no longer recall - let's just say everything we tried was fantastic, so be adventurous! This is a great place to bring your close friends and enjoy the evening :) you may have to wait a little, but it's worth the wait!

Best cocktail bar in Kansas City. Their constantly rotating menu is always offering something new, and the seasonal pop ups also keep things interesting. The space is dark and small, so not the best for large groups but amazing for a date night. Their servers are friendly and so knowledgeable about the cocktails! We can't wait to go back!

Drastic measures is a great little cocktail bar located in downtown Shawnee. The staff is super kind and the menu is very spirit forward. The drinks were delicious but strong, so beware. I thought we may have a hard time getting in since this place does not take reservations, but we got in easily and got our drinks quick! The vibe is laid back and overall a great bar to have in the suburbs!

An absolutely incredible experience. The marriage of a groovy atmosphere and scrumptious cocktails make for an evening you never want to end. Not to mention, the outstanding staff...I'd love to be a member of the Zach and Nate fan club!

DM excels in creativity, and warm service, as well as providing a killer environment. Sage, Jay, Nate, Max, and Zach succeed in providing some of the most off-the-wall, tasty, and satisfying drinks. To me, this is a perfect 5/5.

I had no idea this place even existed, but I'm so glad I found it. Speakeasy vibes, you check the entrance chandelier to know whether they have openings or not. They have their own cocktail menu, but they also have a full bar and can make you whatever your heart desires. I went off menu and ordered my personal favorite, a perfect manhattan. Well mixed, perfect balance of sweet and dry. Service was good as well! Attentive, kind, and one of the waiters came by to ask us a personal question of who was the better actor: Brad Pitt or Bradley Cooper. Ha! This seems like a not very well known place, which is just fine!! Because it really made for an intimate setting. I live in Olathe, and my best friend lives downtown--I think we finally found our halfway place!

This little speakeasy has been on my list for over a year and today I finally got there. Love the hip cozy vibe and cool lights throughout. My favorite drink was the Roll up , which has a limit of 2 ( tasty but very powerful). We got there shortly after 4pm on a Thursday and got right in however things were picking up when we left around 5:45. Our server was also the bartender but by round 2 an actual server showed up. My only regret was it look me a year to get there!

Wow! How did I not know about this place?? What an awesome spot, off the beaten path, speakeasy vibes with hospitality and class. If you love a dark, cavey, perfect place for delicious craft cocktails, get your Drastic Measures on! We will be back!

Love drastic! Such a great bar with amazing drinks. It has gotten really popular. We stopped in around 4:15 on a Saturday and had to wait about 10 minutes before getting in. We got the last seats on the first round of people. Our drinks were incredible. I got the opc and my husband always orders the measured approach. The opc was balanced and delicious. Service is fantastic and I love that they don't allow it to get over crowded. I also love the way they support causes they believe in and raise money for them. Head to drastic for fantastic cocktails in a great environment.

Unique cocktails. Impeccable taste. Cool vibes. Advocate and donate to marginalized groups. This is my dream cocktail spot that we've been coming to for awhile now. I love what they have done for the Shawnee community being a Shawnee resident and cannot wait to see their next Project, Wild Child, come to fruition.

Fun atmosphere good unique drinks and nice service. I would go back for sure. You have to stand outside of the light is red. If it's green you can go in!

Neat spot! It's not big and they commit to the speak easy red light/green light trick to stay comfy inside. But I went right at 6 on a Thursday and got in just before the masses. The drink menu is so fun, top to bottom, and the drinks we ordered were all great. My favorite was the S'mores: actually not overly sweet! Great campfire flavor alongside the s'mores-y mix of flavors. Also really liked the cumin-coconut Mexicolada -- so interesting! The Antigone is the one I could have a few of (but 2 were boozy enough to have me feeling good :-D) Our server was attentive and helpful -- our group of 4 all came in at different times and he made sure we could all get in once the lights were red (thankfully!)

A cocktail bar with a cute twist. If the chandelier is red they are full but if it's green you can come on in. They have waiting areas if the light is red so you can wait to be allowed inside of you please. It's a hidden gem to the area and I wouldn't have known it was there if it wasn't for a friend giving me the information. The service is good and the employees are friendly. A fun place for before or after-dinner cocktails or drinks.

The cocktails here are always changing. Really great to have something unique and special in shawnee. Out of the two owners, one is always particularly nice and goes out of his way to greet our group, explain the drinks & latest trends. This is somewhere I love to take people who are from out of town.

Very cool speakeasy. I got the Kill Bill x2 because I enjoyed it so much. I don't think you can go wrong with a single drink though. My friend spilled his drink and they comped the next one, great notion. Service was great and they checked in frequently. The room is very open but it is spaced out enough to feel private with your group too. There are a couple larger booths in the back, I think all seating is first come first serve though so larger parties might want to plant ahead and get there early.

You walk into the waiting area and there is a light on the door. We went at a busy time so the light was red and there was one group of 3 in front of us but we didn't wait super long for a table. A server came and checked in with us intermittently and we waited around 15 minutes to be seated. We were seated directly across from the bar. It was dimly lit and moody. The servers were helpful in making recommendations and the drinks amazing! Bathrooms were clean and easily accessible.

Was excited to try this speak easy after being named a James Beard finalist. Can honestly say now, I don't understand the hype. Staff wasn't especially friendly or attentive. The cocktails had an arrogance to them and waiter wasn't open to answering questions but inpatient to have us order. The cocktails we had were good, but not amazing. Glad I tried it, but don't think I'll be a repeat customer; there are more interesting places to try.

This is an absolute hidden gem in Shawnee! I didn't even know it existed until some friends of ours took us there last year. I've now been twice and will absolutely go again. It's nestled on the side of the square behind the old hardware store... totally unassuming! When you get there, don't forget to knock on the door, it's a speakeasy after all, and they won't let you in if you're shady (jk, it's mostly a capacity thing--but don't be shady!) The menu is constantly rotating for seasonal specials but they also keep a few of their core menu items available all year. The drinks are absolutely fantastic and so is the service. Caveat, be prepared to Uber or have DD... the drinks are strong!

Loved this place. The owner and bartender were really nice and inviting. The entrance has a speakeasy feel where you have to knock then wait for the host to greet you. If the light is red, they are at capacity. If it's green, it means there is room for more. The drinks were delicious and I loved the vibe. Will definitely be back.

It's a cocktail bar, for starters, not a speakeasy (we were gently chastised), but whatever. What it is is a great place in my neighborhood to go have a fancy drinky drink and enjoy the low-key atmosphere and artisanal cocktails. You want a beer or a glass of vino? Bzzzt, thanks for playing, but no, it's just the bottle and zowie! does Drastic Measures turn out the phenomenal cocktails! Check the menu via QR and you will find bourbon-based cocktails, tequila drinks, vodkas, & more, dreamt up by Jay & Justin and delivered straight to you. A good old-fashioned is often the anchor of any cocktail menu and a skilled mixologist makes all the difference. Justin muddled up raw sugar and bitters, blending it with just the right amount of bourbon and adding rum, a new twist for me. Topped with a dried apple to emphasize the added apple tincture & this drink is smooth and easy, just like expected. I followed that with a classic Manhattan, bourbon and vermouth playing nicely together along with a raspberry splash to deliver a sensational cocktail. For you non-bourboners (read: my wife), there are plenty of options. She selected the Low Key Stunner, a sensational blend of vodka & apertif with a rhubarb kicker. Yeah, just your average drink...not! Refreshing and adult-y all at once, with an urban savoir faire reserved for comfortable lounge seating and quiet conversation. PSA: All of these drinks pack a stout stroke, so pace yourself and enjoy. Green lights in the vestibule mean knock to be allowed entry, while red lights may have you patiently wait. The drinks are totally worth any potential wait and Drastic Measures delivers as much, if not more, value to their cocktails as any place around. Cheers!

We are so fortunate to have this exceptional bar so close to home. It's always a highlight of the week to drop in.

Visited on a chill Wednesday evening. It was a little confusing to find, which i think adds to the secluded factor a bit. When you go in, if the chandelier color is green, use the knocker on the door and they will answer. If it is red, they are full. As a gin drinker, I Was very pleased to find some unique and hard to find gins on the bar. The ice is crafted clear, the drinks artful and delicious, and the service is knowledgeable and prompt. Expect to pay about $13 per drink. Compared to other artistic cocktail bars in the area, I'd definitely recommend a visit to Drastic Measures.

Unfortunately I haven't taken a pic because I'm always in the moment here! Speakeasy with seasonal or weekly menu of exotic cocktails. We love to go on a random date night or to take friends in town! Great vibes and fun service!

Drastic Measures is the spot to go to in Johnson County for a speakeasy like atmosphere. Serving up your favorite cocktails while also creating their own. A very cozy and relaxing atmosphere I went on a Thursday night and had very little wait time. The waiting area is very unique. There are ceiling lights that turn either red or green based on if the restaurant is full. They have bar seating and also some couches for larger parties. We got fantastic service the staff came around multiple times asking if we were doing ok and made sure we were taken care of. The drinks are very affordable everything on the menu is $13 and the quality of the drinks you are getting is top notch. I got an order of The Kill Bill (their most popular drink), Rock Melon fix, and the measured approach. The kill bill is a tequila based cocktail featuring pineapple, ginger, lemon, and a Thai Chile on top. There is a reason this is their most popular drink. It was very smooth and sweet as well. A great balance of flavors and ingredients. Next up is the Rock Melon Fix featuring apple brandy, scotch, Brazilian banana, and cantaloupe cordial. This was also another fantastic drink and a great drink for scotch and non scotch drinkers alike. Then the measured approach is their old fashioned. They hit it out of the park with this one. Another fantastic cocktail that was served and mixed the right way. It is great to see Johnson County get a cocktail bar you can go to that isn't in the city. A great spot for a group or a date spot as well. Go and give them a visit!

Had a horrible experience here got yelled at by the bartender and will never come back

The best, most inventive cocktail menu I've encountered. And I'm OBSESSED with the ethics of this place, giving away profits to local causes and profit sharing with employees. This is how you do cozy, warm interiors with intention.
