Such story roots! Learned a lot in just 1 visit. Enjoyed the information and being surrounded by those who value keeping the memories alive.

The vibe was cool but nobody was upstairs listening to the Jazz band. Me and my girl went up there to and immediately got screamed at for dancing by some crakhed. Turns out it's the owner? First off no dancing to music is a stupid rule. Second off you need to conduct yourself more professionally instead of immediately screaming at your customers. No wonder the top floor is empty, they're avoiding you.

Been here about a half dozen times since 2003 and every time I am disappointed that they do not open the doors sooner…like days sooner 😜. LOVE IT!!! It has grown over the last 20 years and doubled the cover charge plus some as expected. I feel it is the best kept secret in Kansas City that will leave you feeling special, and part of the under-ground local music scene in KC! I find myself impressing visitors when I take them here and feeling proud of my city when they love it!!!
