The Ship

$$ · Kansas City, Missouri

A restored 1935 lounge in the weathered brick of the West Bottoms - cocktails on one side, a live-music room on the other, and history soaked into the walls like smoke into a pit. Free parking, local bands, and zero attitude. This is old KC still doing it right.

Try: A classic cocktail paired with a set of local live music in the 1935 room
