In that same vein, check out the Boulevared Beer Hall, as well as TikiCat in Westport. TikiCat is small so you need to make a reservation, but it's well worth it.

Park your car at Union Station and ride the streetcar to the River Market. Eat at either Brown & Loe, , KC Taco Company, or Il Lazzarone.

On your way back, get off at the stop next to BRGR. Hit up Insomnia cookies and maybe catch a flick at the Alamo Drafthouse. There's also a new Rally House here that has great team and KC apparel. Consider checking out No Other Pub, a Sporting KC bar with bowling, beer pong, and other games indoors.

Hit up local shops like Westside Storey, Normal Human, or the Charlie Hustle store on the plaza.

I think you'll be surprised at how much our fine city has changed in just five short years. These should all be things that weren't here during your last visit!

These are all things you and your son will enjoy...even if he can't have a beer at certain stops.

Well done! Thanks
