Things to Do
Boulevard Brewing Company
Taste KC's local beers, sit outside, play games and have snacks. Tour tickets are $10 on weekdays and include four 5 oz samples. Tickets are $15 on weekends and holidays and include five 5oz samples to be enjoyed during and after the tour.
Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que
A trip to Kansas City wouldn't be complete without BBQ. This local favorite is located in a converted gas station. Order Jocelyn's favorite and get the Z-Man Sandwich (featuring sliced smoked brisket, smoked provolone cheese, a couple of onion rings, a bit of barbecue sauce, all on top of a Kaiser roll).
J. Rieger & Co.
Head to J. Rieger & Co., Kansas City’s iconic distillery, located in the historic Electric Park neighborhood (Walt Disney’s inspiration for the Disney theme parks). Founded when Kansas City boasted “the wettest block in the world”, to its demise at the dawn of Prohibition, and eventual revival in 2014, nearly a century later. Tour tickets are $20 and includes a spirits tasting of Premium Wheat Vodka, Midwestern Dry Gin, Kansas City Whiskey and Caffè Amaro
Chicken N Pickle - Kansas City
Try your hand at pickleball or come by for yoga, lawn games, and food. Keep a lookout for Jocelyn's mom - she can usually be found here for early morning pickleball.
Farina
Phenomenal Italian food from James Beard Award chef, Michael Smith. Another great option is Michael Smith's other restaurant, Extra Virgin, which is located a few blocks away and serves tapas (https://www.extravirginkc.com/).
Christopher Elbow Chocolates
Chocolates and sweets so picturesque that you'll think it is almost too pretty to eat.
National WWI Museum and Memorial
America's official World War I museum and memorial. Home to the most comprehensive collection of WWI objects in the world.
The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art
Kansas City's art museum, located just off of the Country Club Plaza - an outdoor shopping center spanning 15 blocks.
