Things to do in Kansas at night
Hi All,
I will have a couple of nights in Kansas at the start of March. I will have a couple of clients with me. Could anyone suggest things to do in the evening? The days will be tied up in meetings.
We are staying downtown so if anyone has suggestions for nice places to eat or a few good bars I would be grateful to hear them.
thanks in advance.

Kansas night time activities
I presume you are referring to Kansas City? If so, you can check out the Westport area for bars and KC is certainly quite famous for a variety of Barbeque places. Crown Plaza area is also quite nice as well.

Downtown has some nightlife.
Crown Center (near downtown, about 10 blocks due south around 20th and Grand) is an option -- 1970s urban renewal courtesy of the Hall and Pritzker families.
The Plaza (aka Country Club Plaza) is 35 blocks due south of downtown around 47th and Wornall, in the Brush Creek valley. Built in the 1920s it is an established shopping/ entertainment district courtesy of the Nichols family.

If you want some live jazz music (blues some nights), the Phoenix can help you out. It's on 8th & Central downtown, walkable from most hotels right downtown and P&L. Weekday happy hours 4-7pm are a deal.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your advice.
We stayed on Westport, Wouldnt reccommend bit of a dicey area it seemed.
We eat the first night in an area not far from the airport it was fine.
The second night we went to the capital grill. It was fine too, perhaps slightly over priced.
the big 12s were on so we caught a couple of games.
Thanks for your help.
