It was my first time visiting and driving on to the property was like entering a small city. It was the Phil Collins Experience and my brother The Black Diamond Real Illusionist at the Garage! The entire setup from the Parking on site, to the Fantastic Stage & Sound, nice Seating, and most importantly a Great Staff, made Knuckleheads the Best place for live music, and I highly recommend taking in a show when in KC!

I really enjoyed The Phil Collins experience at knucklehead. Great concert. People there were very friendly.

Awesome venue!! Great for concerts, every seat is a great seat..The venue is right next to the railroad tracks which makes the experience even better!! They do serve a little food and drinks are very reasonable.

Ive been a couple of times and loved it. We went on Halloween to see the M80s and Billy Idol. M80s was great! Idol on the other hand was a joke and awful. He was reading from a screen and not singing if you call it that with the music. We were also disappointed with the costume contest. There was no order in how it was done and I guess to be a finalist you needed to be a friends of the guy doing the mic/contest. There where a few amazing costumes and the ones he chose where just ok. Ill be back eventually it all kinda left a bad taste

Awsome place lots of history. Very nice venue for bands. Indoor outdoor stages in the summer they block off the streets to accommodate more in people.

My first time at this venue. I saw John 5 and Queensryche. They were great and this is an awesome live music venue! The food, drinks and environment were all 5 stars!Ill start with the drinks. $4 shots of Patron... Great Deal! A wide variety of beer at great prices. Awesome! The only thing was I always had to wait in a line to get a drink. Small thing which probably kept me from drinking too much.The food was pretty good. Not great but much better than average for a place that is focused on drinks and live music. The BBQ pork sandwich with chips was most awesome! I definitely recommend. Burgers and nachos were yummy as well.The venue was sold out so it was full! There are options for seating but it limited. The stage and sound system are great. Again, this was my first show and I drove in from Omaha. Ill be back for sure!The bands crushed it and sounded fantastic. This mix and acoustics were very good. Very well done!!!Im looking forward to my next show at Knuckleheads! Sooner is better!

What an awesome place to see live acts on multiple stages! So many ways to see your favorite acts. Such a unique experience with an incredible ability to be up close and personal with whomever you see here. Ample parking and plenty of room inside. A definite must see! Highly recommend!

Weve always loved Knuckleheads. Great music, food and cold beer that doesnt cost an arm and a leg. The venue is always clean too, doesnt matter how busy they are.

Id heard of Knuckleheads of course because they get a lot of great bands, but its quite a ways from my house in Overland Park. So we went to see Samantha Fish and had a fantastic time. Its a great room and you can see from everywhere. The drinks are strong and cheap and the sound was great. Ill definitely go back

Very unique place thats a blast to hang out and listen to great music

Great venue! Friendly staff. Bring cash its a cash bar there is an atm also

Amazing venue, great vibes and cost friendly. A must do in KC

We came to hear BOB JOVI and The Cars band/ JUST WHAT I NEEDED, they were amazing! Great outdoor concert space!

Great bar and atmosphere. Cash only so make sure you bring some. There are atms inside though!

Was my frist time and was a great experience. Recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good time.

A fantastic venue. Great staff and perfect for an evening of live music

Great music.. Friendly people...Terrific adult atmosphere to have a drink and chill

Knuckleheads is absolutely the best venue I ever experienced for live music!

Saw Samantha Fish 10/9/20...she was amazing & Knuckleheads is very cool unique vinue.

Awesome place, awesome music! Love the Gospel Lounge ️

Great music, cold beer, good food....its all there!

This place never disappoints. Good people, good music & fun!

Best live music joint in kc!

This joint has character - 4 different stages and is a great place to see live and local music!!

Great experience. Amazing Band

I love this place,always great bandd

Knuckleheads I think is best to go with people who have been there before and know the drill. They are a cash kind of place, but they have an ATM so dont worry. They have live jam type of music and its a lot of fun to go and just hang out and listen to some live music.

Fantastic and unique live music venue. A gem of Kansas City.

Simply the best venue for live music, beer and a good time in the Kansas City area. Several stages allow for the perfect setting for acts drawing small casual crowds to huge SRO headliners. They seem to make the beer lines move quickly and others have told me the bar food is good. The crowd is usually a mix of young to older with the concentration varying by the musical act on the stage. Just a must for live music lovers in the area.

This place is awesome. Live music on 3 stages. All genre. I am a Blues fan, had a great time every time!

Unbelievable amount of old memorabilia, lots of space, cold drinks, nice people and great tunes :) will definitely be going back to visit.

It is places like this that make the world a better place. Do yourself a favor and visit here as often as possible. I wish I lived closer.

Great place to see live music, many well known names play here. Plenty of parking in a secure gravel lot. Cash only bar, food options. Friendly crowd always, if your standing people usually invite you to sit with them. You can pay online to prepay for a show at a cheaper rate for some shows, but, its pretty much the same at the door after you get charged service fees and such.

The bands were great, and food was great!! I will be back

If youre ever in KC then you have to see a show at Knucks! There isnt a bad seat in the place. They have multiple stages, both inside and outdoors, that accommodate shows of all sizes. There is a bar near each stage so you dont have to go far for drinks. This isnt the bartenders first rodeo either they know whats up and they get the line moving quickly! They have a kitchen as well, Im not sure how late it is open but they had a food truck at the last show I went to. And unlike many bars they have plenty of stalls in the restroom so there is hardly ever a line!

Went to an event in the Knuckleheads Garage, which as far as I can tell is separate from the saloon and across from it.This is an interesting venue. Its pretty small and there is seating and large tables for most of the floor. Unfortunately, there isnt much elevation so if you are short and/or want a good view come early and get a good seat otherwise you will be dodging other peoples heads all night.This place draws in an interesting group of people. Overall, people were reasonably well-behaved.If you want something to drink, its cash only. Definitely keep that in mind.Overall a good local place trying to do something nice. There were big fans running in the summer but I dont believe it was air conditioned. I have doubts about how warm they can keep it during the winter because it doesnt seem like a well- insulated building. If youre going to be sitting, might want to bring a jacket or whatever as the seasons change to make sure youre comfortable.

Worlds best honky tonk

Took a trip to Knuckleheads with a VIP Larkin Poe package in hand. What an awesome experience!! Theyve made a major improvement to how VIP packages are managed now. Last time we met in another building then had to get in line for the actual concert/show. This time we met the band right in the stage area and remained there for the performance. That was so much appreciated by the attendees. Ill definitely do that again. And, the place it just really cool on top of that.

Great outdoor and indoor venue for concerts. Right by the train tracks adds an atmosphere you wont find anywhere else. Speakers were adequate for any position occupied during the performances. Outdoor Bar was cash only. Not sure about inside. Had your normal bar food options. Smells good. Didnt try it.

Awesome, as always! Very short stay this time, unfortunately (but just because beyond my control, & was still great). What I consider THE best venue around, with the best staff, owners & patrons anywhere, the BEST of the BEST talent, fair pricing, & always just an all around, no hassle, good folks, great time!!

The greatest live music venue youll ever go to! We always have so much fun and it wont break the bank. The staff are the best and all these years Ive never met a patron that wasnt somebody you couldnt sit down and immediately start talking to. Everybody is the friendliest here

Always a great time at Knucklehead.. Love the first Monday Honky Tonk good old country.

Good food, good music, good place

Coming back slowly. Tacos were good.Drinks are reasonably priced. Great music!

This is a very fun venue even to take your older kids, enjoyed the live music - very laid-back / easy-going

This was my first time to knuckleheads, I will be coming back! Was really impressed with the venue and layout. Dance floor, some tables for reserve, additional general seating. Comfortable atmosphere.They did an excellent job keeping the concert area cooled off. I had an excellent spot for general admission, was packed in with the crowd. Was hot for about 10 min out of 4 hr show.Location: If your not real familiar with the area or saloon, it would be easy to assume this may be a rough bar in a bad area but knowing who was performing and looking at Knuckleheads website, I knew that to be false. This is a great venue. Ill be visiting again.

Good food! Decent beer choices. Seemed to be mostly domestic. Fun venue. If you havent been before, when they tell you to go early, it means get your food and beer and then go find a seat in side the arena. Dont wait in the bar thinking there will be an announcement that the seating is now open. It does not happen. And when leaving, if possible, check the train schedule. Not uncommon to sit in line for a long time. Otherwise well worth a return visit. I can see how this would be a great place in the good weather with the party deck available.

Just saw my first show in the Garage. Its a cool venue. The seating is a little weird. Lots of tables down the middle. Head to the left side for a thin bar rail and stool seating. These spots are just past the 2 rows of theater seats.

They just doubled the space by adding The Garage music venue and bar across the street. The Garage is a large open venue that was formerly a semi garage so there is plenty of space to enjoy the concert with tables, theater type seating and a large bar. They serve food though 3rd party vendors near the bar area. In the center there is a large open dance floor but its usually crowded with people watching the show so there is not much dancing. Its CASH only do forget the credit cards and bring enough cash for the night. The food vendors do accept credit cards.

I always love going down to Knucks! The atmosphere is perfect, the staff is always so helpful and in great spirits. Probably my favorite music venue in Kansas City, because there are 4 venues rolled into one location. I know Ill be back to see a show soon!

Great Jam session today.

It was my first time going there. We saw Queensryche John 5 Eve and Adam. And it was a great concert. Couldnt ask for a better place to see great music. I will be back. I encourage everybody to go there.

Venue is awesome. Open air space to move and walk around. Lukas Nelson and the promise of the real were amazing. Highly suggest this place.

Great hang out place with live music.

Knuckleheads garage is the place to be! Very spacious and they have some really comfy seats on the side if youre a sitting down type. They also have nice dancing space! The employees are also so kind and give me smiles whenever I go in!

Fun atmosphere! Great food and wonderful live music!

The coolest! Retro bar and entertainment venue. So many bands and stars have been there. Autographed pictures of stars like Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, Elvis and Alabama. To many to mention. At least 5 stages. Great people! On Sundays they have an event where a lot people ride their bikes and they block off the street, Harleys thru to designer rides. Many other kinds of bikes. Contests and prizes. If you like music and fun, this is the place. They even have an old caboose next to one of the stages. Im going back on my next vacation. A gotta go to fun place. Holland...

The first thing in Kansas City that helped me settle in and love this city. A great mix of music. Tacos! Bring cash for the bar. Hard to find, but only the first time. Safe. And easy to come solo. Appreciate the courtesy and friendliness of the employees. Ty Knuckleheads.

My favorite place to see a live show! This place attracts top talent in the music industry and bands love playing here. Up close and personal. Definately recommend everyone catch a show here.

Fantastic venue for live music.

Great place! The staff was very helpful and other customers very friendly. Great place to go for afternoon Jam sessions. Looking forward to outdoor concerts during the summer.

Lots of history, good sound, clean, has seats and standing room. Lots of parking as well.

It was my first time here and there were 8 of us. Really good place to see a live show. We saw The Ben Miller Band and they did another great show.

It was my first time and I had a BLAST!

Funday Sunday! Great people watching, jam band and decently priced beers! Anyone can sign up to get on the stage and throw down. Now that we closed out the football season, this is a good place to hang on Sunday.

Great music venue! Food stand served delish food. Staff was friendly, efficient and pretty amazing as well. Plenty of parking. Will easily recommend and go back.

Great place to see some of the best Blues bands, both local and national acts.

Nice indoor/outdoor venue

Unique experience! Good food. Super concert venue...up close and personal. 4 stages. Fabulous cover bands!

I had a great time Mark and the sharks band they ROCK! The staff is wonderful. Will definitely go back!

A great venue! Plenty of bar space and room! Outdoor areas also very nice!

I love this venue. Its so intimate, the drinks are cheap, everyone who works here is great. 10/10.

Had a great show, but very limited parking. First time here went to see Samantha Fish after the show was moved to Knuckleheads Garage. Apparently they have 4 parking lots, who knew. Will know if we go again.

Had a blast! Great venue.

Awesome people Frank and employees great and Julie is the best person ever

Great venue. Went for a festival and the two stages are super close yet super isolated from each other so one band doesnt distract from another. The food is pretty standard bar fare but its really well done. Will definitely be back for another show soon. Any place in KC that serves food and has three of some of Kansas Citys finest BBQ sauces ready for your meal is pretty awesome in my book.

Fun place to go and hang out. Good acts but when I was there the security was lacking. Its sad that you cant go anywhere without the concern of some knucklehead (see what I did there) out to harm good folks, but they have big enough crowds that they should have some (or more) visible security.

The only downside is the location, when the train is stopped on 2 of the roads to get there. The venue is clean, safe and the drinks are good and priced right! I will definitely go more often...

Cool venue, saw tribute bands Bob-Jovi and Just What I Needed a tribute to Bob Jovi and The Cars! Both bands were made up of the same members and were amazing! Felt like I was seeing the real guys! Place was very clean!

Great place to hang for an afternoon or evening of music. Especially on a sunny day at the outdoor stage. Just about every beer from a to z and well executed fried foods

Still one of the very best music venues in the country, IMHO.

Great Music Venue...Best Club set up I have seen... No spot is a bad spot.

This place is a hidden gem. I love how open it is. There is seating on groundlevel or up on this cute balcony, that has restrooms. 2 bars one inside and one outside. I didnt try the food. But man it smelled so good. The bartenders know how to pour a drink. Very friendly and fast. Im so excited to find this place. Will be going more often.

I came here to do some volunteering for a radio station. So in my time of being there people were really nice. I will warn all that to bring cash for the bar and food, but overall it was a great experience.

Fun venue for live music!

Cool venue! Covid capable!

Went for live music. Got exactly what I paid for. Nice venue and respectful staff.

I was visiting from small town Oregon. My brother got us tickets and we went down and saw Sam Bush Band in the Garage. Had a great time, Great venue!

Mask required, great music, tacos were half sized and horrible.

Cool venue. The garage section was very nice and well run.

We just came from the Elvis show. Definitely worth it. He sings his guts out. Very entertaining. Complete entertainment you will not be disappointed. Go see the show.

Great music! Great atmosphere!

Went to a concert here. Its out in the middle of an industrial area and youll think youre heading into an abyss, but keep following your GPS and youll find it. Friendly event staff and never did see a line for drinks. Definitely recommend.

Every weekend Knuckleheads invites professional musicians to jam, just for the fun of it! Music starts at 1 pm and ends at 5:30 Saturdays and 6pm Sundays! The public is invited to listen, for free! Each musician plays a set and about every 20 minutes new musicians grace the stage. The music is great! You can buy beer from the bar and a pretty good variety of food from the grill. Every time Ive been there, the crowd has been friendly. Its a great place to meet up with your adult friends!

No other music venue on earth like Knuckleheads. Outdoor stage is the best! Tall beers and good eats too.

Not the most respectable venue but has a lot of open area. Not the most family friendly nor are there many big name artists clawing to get a gig there, but is roomy so its not too crowded for a bigger crowd.

Cool bar and live music venue across the tracks from another cool place, a distillery. Great outdoors music venue

Great music at a fantastic venue. Always enjoyable!

Very nice good vibes. Good music.. Good people.

Very good venue for live music. Cash only bar and plenty of seats were available. Come early for the best seating.
