Downtown KC is filled with restaurants, micro breweries/distilleries, and much more. Hop onto the (free) street car and take a trip from downtown to crown center, or check out the Crossroads art district.
Take a stroll through the expansive art exhibit (free ticket online) and then hit the Plaza right next door for some shopping and dinner!
Boulevard Brewing is a favorite of ours and with two kinds of tour options (both better than AB ;) ) there's something for the rookie or the beer sommelier. Don't forget to try their seasonal sour (Kylie's fav) or the infamous Space Camper (always on deck at the Vande Ven bar). Post tour, hangout at their bar while trying drinks not currently out on the market.
On the weekends, the River Market (just north of downtown) is filled with vendors selling fresh fruit, pastries, and gorgeous flower bouquets. A wonderful Sunday activity before you leave town!
