This place is a hidden GEM! I think it may be my favorite place in KC. Definitely has a home town feel and a comfortable local atmosphere. The food was fantastic and the staff were top notch. Super friendly and didnt miss a beat. We will definitely be going again the next time were in KC.

This is one of my favorite bars in Kansas city! They always have great live music and a great bunch! They just redid their upstairs deck which is perfect for drinking some of their delicious cocktails by a fire. They also have multiple spaces for large parties. Ive always have had a blast at the Levee.

Food is good pricing too and the kitchen is open till midnight! Lots of places to sit and chill ans a place to dance if you want to. Lots and lots of different bar areas but only two are open rn

Amazing little pub and venue. Really enjoyed playing there. Look forward to going back there soon.

I love the new menu. The Levee under new management!

Food is much more filling than youd expect! Grand variety in beer and drinks, awesome/caring staff, comforting/chill environment.

STRONG DRINKS, Decent tacos and respectful Staff.

The Levee has been around for decades. Its under new(ish) ownership. First comment is on the happy hour. I had the BBQ and the pastrami sliders. The BBQ were just ok. The pastrami should NOT be on the menu. I havent had this bad of meat at any bar. I couldnt get past one bite, nor could my friend. The happy hour otherwise is good for the price point.The patio is enclosed with plastic for the winter and with only one or two smokers, it was intolerable in there.Levee has a live music venue downstairs, so expect a cover when theres a band. Upstairs they have bar games. Theres an event space next door under the same ownership. Its usually a very laid back crowd in there.

Loved it! Amazing food equally awesome service! Great Beer selection

Great place when s good band is there. A bit small dance floor but nices prices on food and drink. Parking quite good.

Always is a good time down at the Levee, one of the main go to bar on my list. Friendly bartenders and all type of people go here. Truly is a great place to have a good ole time !!

Great presence of music. Atmosphere was good. Great happy hours drinks. Great place. Great drinks selection. Staff were friendly .

Brunch was yummy! The brisket quesadilla is a great appetizer!

Dont let the dive bar appearance fool you! Good beer selection, huge menu with excellent food!! Great daily specials and friendly service!

You can dance,eat,drink, meet great people and enjoy the atmosphere. What a blast with the great bands. Party people.

The Levee feels like home. Lots of friends, great bands, the best and friendliest bartenders, servers, and doormen. It is number 1 on my list for fun

Good atmosphere .. live music is always good touch... Multiple room options for your vibe for the night.

Great music, buffalo chicken sliders were excellent, love the fire out in the enclosed patio. Win win!!!

Good food, live music and cold beer, what more could you ask for?

Fun Bar. It has a lot to offer. There are like 10 different spots to hang out in. Live music is always fun. There is also a dj in the back. Nice chill patio in the back back...so many spots, it just keeps going.

Caleb the bartender was good and Ben the Chef was amazing ..Nice vibe there had a gr8 time..

Great place for live music. Blues and rock bands rotating multiple members of the band. Great selection of beer

21 to 35 your good. Older than that you will feel your age@

Love this place. Super fun.. and so many different genres of music. Reggae night, 80s night... Just a fun place to hang out!

Great live music with quick bartenders. Not pretentious

Service was excellent, been ther sevral times for different bands and have never been dissapointed

Personable staff, great selection of music. Diverse crowd of 21 year old college students, all the way up to 65 year olds looking to dance. The live music doesnt just fit one generation specifically. Great patio spaces(there are 3 separate outdoor patios with tables, seating and even a couple outdoor bar games. Last, but surely not least this bar&grill serves food until 2am on weekends. Overall, you wont be disappointed with the endless options to meet your favorite bar needs. Whether its getting together with coworkers for a meeting, throwing a private party in the Carriage House(used for weddings and private events), going out with friends to do karaoke, watching a ball game with the boys or reconnecting with your spouse; on a date night to dance and let loose a little bit. The Levee has been a staple in Kansas City for 65+ years and will for sure meet your expectations and needs.

This place is a great place to kick back after a week of work and listen to some good music...

Favorite bar in the area!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!! STAFF, MUSIC AND FOOD WAS GREAT!! I HAD AN AMAZING TIME.

Met a beautiful human named Carol and heard one of the best guitarists on the planet.

They need to make the place bigger its too crowded you cant dance and you cant be comfortable cuz everybodys pushing you. Some of the peoples odor doesnt blend well with each other. Whats 2 of a small place to sit and enjoy yourself

Unique yet familiar this sweet spot of a dive bar is the kinda bar where you have drinks with friends that never end! Bartenders were friendly and the food came out fresh and delicious! The best part is the multi-room concept. Cant wait to come back

Brian the manager was the best!! Went on Friday night for hh and Brian spent time explaining the beers and food options they have. Great live music too

I live across the street and always observe whats going on here.. when I step in omg its full of loud noise and good place to hangout..entry is freeno better spot for parking

Nice and fun college location to meet up for drinks and just have a good time with friends

Good food, good service, friendly staff and good bands

Always a great time! Theres something for everyone: live music, karaoke night, trivia nights, a DJ for dancing. There are also multiple bar areas on multiple levels and patios for smokers or if you just like fresh air. They offer a variety of drinks at reasonable prices as well as tasty bar food.

This place is pretty nice. Good sized main level and upstairs bar with a patio on the 2nd level. We came when there was live music downstairs so went upstairs. Its not busy upstairs as there are a total of 7 people at the bar and a few patrons coming to get drinks from the band down stairs. We order our food and my wife orders a drink. Keep in mind my wife and I both have worked as bartenders before. He proceeds to pour a half shot of alcohol in her drink and fills the rest with juice. He then serves the other customers proceeding to pour 1.5-2.5 ounces of liquor per drink. Then our food comes out and is very visible anywhere in the room right next to the bar. He passes by our food 3x before grabbing it 5 minutes later. Nice bar with good food but terrible service.

I had a blast singing karaoke Wednesday night! Place was packed.NEED MORE THAN ONE BARTENDER!!!

Nice place but on nights of live bands playing, there isnt enough room and need more comfortable chairs but otherwise great bar and grill.

Great place to see live music. Cold beer, and good music. After the bands done you can stick around for a dj.

Pretty neat

Tasty burger and fries. Ice cold local beer. Jalapeno poppers just as good

The Levee has the best bands in KC and the nicest bartenders. This is my home away from home.

Great place ...wait staff and bartenders are awesome

It was my first time at the place,but I was very pleased

Went on a Monday night, so it was definitely slow. But even so, I could clearly see the potential for the weekends. They have live music three nights a week, Thursday through Saturday.The service was great as well. We also ate the loaded fries and I definitely would recommend them. Prices were solid, too!Well be back this weekend for the music and crowd. Definitely a nice dive bar that is way bigger than it looks from the outside!

Great drinks and food. Friendly attentive staff.

This is THE SPOT for hang outs. They have four bars. They have a deck, patio with a bar, covered smoking area with a bar, a dance floor on the main level with a bar where live bands are often playing or karaoke is typically happening, an upper bar where trivia is usually played and tvs are on for sports fans. This is a bar for everyone with solid food options as well. They are open every day until 3a, and the kitchen is open pretty late as well.I frequent this bar, and you should too.

Great music! Always a fun time there!

Bartender is very friendly and knowledgeable about beers and the selection is very good.

The staff is awesome and drinks are a great price!

Been a long time since last visit and did not disappoint.

Great hole in the wall bar. Their nachos are crazy good and so was their quesadilla. During non-peak times, they are running specials on these things so that is even better. Seems to be a smokers paradise as well as they have a good section outside away from everyone but still a covered area with good seating to drink, eat, and have a smoke.

Aware music. . Great drink prices.. a very good place for fun with friends

Didnt feel very welcome. Since its right up the street from St. Lukes, I found that odd. Place was empty, apparently their first foray in2 lunch. Service was good, but if a man cant get his CB med rare, theres something wrong.

Went for a private party in the back room and patio. Our bartender was amazing, and the space was a comfortable size. I think the bar manager (?) stopped by and looked pretty silky by not knowing what drinks they had behind the bar.

Great atmosphere... local.... pretty good food!

Nice bar with karaoke. The food was good too. There are lost of stairs so be aware.

Had a great time. At reggae night and salsa night

Was only here go a short time when doing a pub crawl for Saint Pattys day but it was a chill spot with live music. Could become a regular there as Ive been looking to a live music bar that has good seating. They also serve food but we didnt eat there so will update review after I try some food.

This is the place for my girlfriends, love coming here to chill. Its not overwhelming and Mark is a great bartender! They have darts and pinball machine and they often have live music downstairs. Well be trying out dollar tacos tonight!

Love this place! Great food, great service and we heard a wonderful band last Saturday! KC Aces put on a great show!

I was with work friends on a Wednesday night and we discovered it was karaoke night when we walked in.No food or snacks or anything; just a bar and karaoke. I dont typically visit places like this, but it was well organized and the vibe was fun.

Live music bar on the first floor. Second floor has more hip hop and the third floor has pool tables. 3 bars for the price of one. Great atmosphere decent prices.

Very young crowd, food not so great.Beer was good, bartender was friendly.

I had never been here before, but my friend wanted to go for her 26th birthday. I went with my husband and sister as well. They had a 5$ cover per person. We got there and live music was playing which was awesome. We got a beer from the bar and then sat down and wanted to order food. I went to the bar to order food and the bartender said theres a waitress for my section. So I sit down and wait about 15 minutes and no one comes by. I go back up to the bar to ask for the waitress and I see him tell some other guy so I assumed theyd be over shortly. Another 15 minutes go by and still no waitress. So I decide I dont want food anymore.. and then finally the waitress comes and asks if I was wanting to order food and I just said no thanks, Im fine. 5 minutes later the manager comes over and tells me I have to leave because I shoved a waitress!?? That I talked to for 5 seconds?? Dont support this horrible excuse for a business. I was falsely accused by them and kicked out. I couldnt finish my beer and didnt get my cover money back. Treated like a criminal..All because of a bold faced lie. They treat their customers terribly. DO NOT GO HERE!

Tonight was fabulous! Mix of people fantastic band - X-Parte. Friendly staff, great drinks. Best night ever! Just wish the dance floor was bigger.

Great place for live music and the best nachos in town

This is a place where I have to watch my manners because I embarrass my friend,but the large covered outdoor seating patio with personal fire pits,the exercise I get climbing the stairs to the top floor,the great mix of guests,wonderful happy hour,extensive menu,and Jameson on tap makes sure I say please and thank you,and dont curse,Much...

Bartenders were awesome. They need a little help with the waitresses. Too many mistakes!

Great bar that was close to my hotel. The bar tender was super nice and knowledgeable about everything going on. The food was good to and had a nice bite to eat late at night. I went to the upstairs bar to avoid the load mucus which was nice. Downstairs had live music being performed

Nice bar to have a drink and watch a band

Ryan the beardy bar tender was amazing! Provided new beers and mixed drink options. Delicious tots, wings and ecclectic music options.

I went in on around 8pm on Saturday night... The place was crowded.. The music was a live band... Playing 60 s music... The dance floor was packed.. I danced and enjoyed the good jibe of the atmosphere... It was an older crowd..not a bunch of kids..I liked that... The place reminds me of a big tree house that has many levels..it was peaceful upstairs... Music still ringed out.. It was crowded up above... I guess they have a wide variety of bands that play there... They offer normal type bar food... I enjoyed myself.. And give it a thumbs up...

Wonderful food and great service! Journeymen played! Amazing!

Drinks was good. Affordable prices.

Unique is not the word.Ive always had (knock on wood) a good time here. It has live music, upstairs - downstairs, a patio, and a mix of people from all around. Everytime I go it happens to be a torrential downpour night. Not sure what thats about.The staff is fine (again, knock on wood) it really depends on the night. But for the most part, their cool. If its crazy busy have your order ready. No harm no foul. Slower nights you get treated like the valuable regular that you are.Its in a good location and away from Westport ridiculousness which helps. Parking too. But use Uber anyway.

Love this place. Check it out.

Great bar, multiple levels, different vibes, friendly staff

What a great place to listen to live music . I wish they would book my favorite rock band. Full moon band

Great place to go hear live music!!

Hands down; My favorite bar in Kansas City, Missouri. The best half a pound hamburger for $10 I have ever had in my entire life! Everyday they have a tall boy beer special. The bartender, Danny, is a classy dude. TOPS in my book. A great dive bar!!!! ( hey Napoleon, can I have some of your tots?) BEST TOTS!!!!

Wonderful time I love the place

Great place to visit when youre in Kansas City. The band was fantastic, KC Aces, lots of good dance music.

Go to place for great local music. New ownership so some changes underway. Always new people as well as a steady fun crowd.

I love this place and the good vibes

The instamatics unbelievable bring back old time songs that have been lost forever in my memory everything from Beatles Bee Gees the Wonders amazing time. Cant wait to see them again in March

Karaoke 4 nights a week. You can be a Superstar every night.

Great service was a great place for 8 of us to have an after work meeting with cocktails and food.

We love going here for an extended evening of fun with friends when a band we enjoy watching is playing here. The place is easy to find. Parking is ample across the street and is free. Your can start your evening upstairs in the dining area with some great food and a full bar, then move downstairs when the band starts and have some fun out on the dance floor with plenty of other KC friends!

Great time with KC groove therapy

Nice music and staff.. One of the best spots in the area hands down.

Good food and friendly service at a good price.. Who could ask for anything more?

Great spot, amazing bands first floor, cool DJs on second floor and a great pool table/bar on third. Great crowd been many times always had a blast. Also, had the best quesadillas Ive ever had in my life but my judgement was probably impaired..

Enjoyed myself. Very relaxing evening. My first time at this establishment but most definitely not my last!!! Not a complaint but a suggestion, please add to your liquor cabinet Bombay Sapphire Gin or even Seagrams!!! And let the bartender know to keep those righteous cocktails coming with his sexy ass!!!

Good amount of draft beer options. Good staff. Nice little dive right outside westport.

Great Lunches, great food - owners are humble and nice. The place is always rocking. The staff is super helpful and friendly, and almost over attentive. Great place for late night dancing with great music. Cool outside deck. Fun place to just cruise with a beer and take in the scenes.

Love the bartenders and Live Music
