A Sad Farewell
Sadly, the news is not all good for the Kansas City dining scene. We have received word of immediate closures of two well-loved establishments — Westport Ale House and misc. cocktail bar in North KC. It’s never a good day when we lose such enchanting places that treated us to memorable late-night delights.
Westport Ale House
The Westport Ale House announced its immediate and permanent closure yesterday, citing rising costs such as rent and food prices as the reason. Fans of the Ale House are bound to miss its unique offerings.
misc. Cocktail Bar and Event Space
Also in a rather saddening note, the misc. cocktail bar and events space brought up the tail end of this closure news cycle, citing a priority shift towards nurturing family time. The establishment, which was known for its themed months like Awkward Family Thanksgiving and 90’s Rom Com, left no trace of resuming operation or private rentals in the future.
