KC LOCAL EATS

BBQ You Have To Try

Joe’s Kansas City Bar-B-Que
The classic. Yes, it’s in a gas station. Yes, it’s worth it. Get the Z-Man sandwich and burnt ends if they have them. KC locals still defend this place with their lives.

Q39 Midtown
More modern/chef-driven BBQ vibe. Great if you want something a little nicer but still very KC. The brisket and burnt ends get mentioned constantly.

Cool KC Dinner Spots

Grünauer
Austrian/German food in the Freight House district. Really cool atmosphere and consistently one of the most-loved non-BBQ restaurants in KC.

The Antler Room
Probably the biggest “foodie” recommendation in KC right now. Smaller, chef-driven menu that changes often. Great date night spot.

Chewology
Creative Asian comfort food.

Fox and Pearl
Cozy chef-driven spot.

Bay Boy
Incredible sandwiches.

A tray of Kansas City barbeque with sliced brisket, sausage, burnt ends, ribs, pickles, bread, coleslaw, baked beans, and a side of corn—just the kind of meal you’d savor while learning about Crossland in Kansas City BARBEQUE style.

A crispy chicken sandwich with fries, iced tea, and water sits on a table overlooking the city skyline and the iconic "KC" sign. A menu labeled "GranDun" hints at what’s special about Crossland dining in this historic setting.

Got Lunch??

The Russell
Awesome lunch stop with a really good steak sandwich and wood-fired food. Feels laid back but still cool and intentional.

DoubleTap KC – KID FRIENDLY
If your kids are a little older, this place is awesome. Retro arcade games, burgers, casual vibe, and right near River Market
