We had an absolutely fantastic night out! The location was perfect, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Inside, the music was fantastic, creating an energetic and lively atmosphere. They kept things interesting by occasionally changing the music theme and type, with house music being the main highlight. The overall vibe was super fun, and everyone was dressed up nicely, adding to the excitement of the evening. It was a memorable experience that we would love to repeat!

In The Lowest Ferns is pure West Bottoms magic. The second you walk in, you feel it. Moody, industrial, plant-filled, low lighting that makes everyone look like they belong in an editorial shoot. The ambiance alone is worth the visit. The couches are ridiculously cozy, the space feels intimate without being cramped, and the whole place hums with intention. And the music. Obsessed is not dramatic. The sound system is crisp, immersive, and thoughtfully curated. It is the kind of place where you go for one drink and end up staying because the DJ set won’t let you leave. The cocktail menu is on the smaller side. I tried a few and personally was not blown away, but that did not ruin the experience for me. One thing to note, the incense is strong. If you are sensitive to scent, it might feel a little intense at first. That said, I love this place. The vibes are undeniable. I would absolutely go back for the music, the lighting, and those cozy couches alone. It feels like a hidden lounge you want to keep to yourself but also tell everyone about.

What a unique venue!!! This unassuming old building looks like it's seen better days from the outside. Once you enter, you're transported into a one of a kind bar/ club. The industrial feel is softened by an abundance of live plants, sky lights and comfy conversational seating areas with couches. The chain curtains, old motorcycle and vintage go-go dancer cage are surprisingly not out of place and just enhance the cool vibe. The custom drink menu had a nice selection and the bartender had a generous pour. Definitely a younger crowd, but good vibes. Worth checking them out.

Its very beautiful, no much variety for music! Enjoyed watching the little battle on the floor. The drink i had was awful and nothing like a real lemon drop like needs to be taken off the menu 😩 but the atmosphere and building was amazing the ambiance was spot on. I will be back when the drink menu changes!

Located in the west bottoms of Kansas City, this music venue offers a live DJ, craft cocktails, and a unique atmosphere for anyone looking to have a good night. They also offer mocktails and non-alcoholic beverages. Usually there is a food truck outside the venue to satisfy your late night cravings.

Absolutely horrible bartenders and staff. Don’t expect a drink unless you look like a heterosexual white person. I was ignored multiple times by bartenders when trying to get a drink. When leaving the club, we were met with very rude attitude being rushed out, while other people who fit the description were able to take their time and say their goodbyes. Do not recommend and would not go again!!
