We travel a lot, but that doesn't mean we skip out on exploring our own town. Please take some time to visit some or all of these establishments over our wedding weekend.
Alma Mader Brewing
2635 Southwest Boulevard, Kansas City, MO 64108
The best brewery in town. Period. Every beer is fantastic and we can't say enough great things about this place. I guess while you are there you can walk around the block to Boulevard, but you'd be making a mistake.
Poi-O
1000 West 25th Street, Kansas City, MO 64108, (816) 809-1900
Wood-fired rotisserie chicken and ribs. Absolutely delicious and the sides are AMAZING. A perfect place to grab some takeout and head on over to Alma Mader.
