403 is my home away from home. What could I possibly say about this place? This wonderful place I’ve been maybe a thousand times in the last 10+ years.
The patrons are my friends; the bartender my therapist. Every time I come home from a work trip I head straight to the 403 Club for a quick PBR and a breath of fresh air before proceeding home.
403 hosts fun potlucks for the Chiefs games and it’s a great spot to catch a Royals game as well. Personally I love playing songs on the jukebox and hanging out on the back patio. I’m told they have a few pinball tables.
403 also hosts events for local organizations such as roller derby and Equality KC and participates in the Strawberry Hill Pub Crawl. It’s a wonderful place to meet people - nicest folks you’ll ever meet.

Oh, and the 2 Dolla Natty Light Strawberry Lemonades ain't half...

A very good selection of beers to choose from. We had a group of 20 gather and it was perfect. Good ventilation, doesn’t smell like smoke or any of the other negatives of a typical...
