Food & Drink
Local, independent favorites close to the house — plus a couple of Kansas City essentials worth a short drive. Drive times are approximate, measured from the house near 155th & Metcalf.
Local Coffee & Bakery
Independent, locally owned — no chains here.
McLain's Market — Stanley
~5 minA beloved Kansas City bakery (baking since 1945) at 151st & Metcalf — house-roasted coffee, espresso drinks, and a case full of fresh pastries, cookies, and breakfast. Open daily 7 AM–2:30 PM, with a drive-thru.
Te Amo Cafe
~4 minA family-owned café at Stanley Square (151st & US-69) with signature lattes, cold brews, and boba — a laid-back local spot for a morning coffee or afternoon pick-me-up.
Breakfast & Brunch
Of Course Kitchen & Company
~4 minA James Beard–nominated chef's New American spot in the BluHawk district (7753 W 159th) — creative brunch and lunch with an Asian-inflected twist. A local standout.
Red Door Woodfired Grill
~5 minWoodfired American cooking with a popular weekend brunch, also in BluHawk (8001 W 159th) — comfortable and family-friendly.
Mexican & Tex-Mex
Cactus Grill
~5 minFull-service Tex-Mex and Mexican in the BluHawk shopping center (7841 W 159th) — margaritas, sizzling fajitas, and the classics, minutes from the house.
Asian
Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ
~5 minCook-your-own Japanese tabletop BBQ (yakiniku) in BluHawk (7831 W 159th) — a fun, interactive dinner that's great for the whole group.
Pizza
Grimaldi's Pizzeria
~10 minLegendary New York–style pizza from a coal-fired brick oven at Prairiefire (5601 W 135th) — fresh hand-tossed dough with a crisp, smoky, charred crust. A local favorite.
Minsky's Pizza
~12 minA Kansas City original since 1976 serving gourmet specialty pizzas — the Overland Park location is at 12627 Metcalf. Easy dine-in, carryout, or delivery.
Kansas City BBQ (a KC must — several to choose from)
Kansas City is a barbecue capital — here's what makes each spot worth a stop.
Burnt End BBQ
~10 minThe closest BBQ to the house (11831 Metcalf). Named for KC's signature delicacy — caramelized, twice-smoked brisket burnt ends — served in a modern, polished setting. Come hungry and order the burnt ends.
Q39 South
~11 minChef-driven barbecue from an award-winning competition pitmaster (11051 Antioch). More refined than a typical joint, with craft cocktails and a full menu — the burnt ends and the pork ribs are the standouts.
Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que
~13 minA KC legend you shouldn't miss. The original opened in a working gas station and was famously named one of Anthony Bourdain's “13 places to eat before you die.” The Z-Man — brisket, smoked provolone, and onion rings on a kaiser roll — is the sandwich people drive across the country for. Nearest locations: Leawood (11723 Roe, ~13 min) and Olathe (~15 min).
Jack Stack Barbecue
~13 minKC's white-tablecloth barbecue institution (9520 Metcalf) — a proper sit-down dinner. Famous for hickory-smoked crown prime beef short ribs and the legendary cheesy corn bake side. A great choice for the whole group.
Slap's BBQ
~25 minRun by championship competition pitmasters in KCK's historic Strawberry Hill. Counter-service and no-frills, but many locals call it the best ribs and burnt ends in town — go early, they sell out. Worth the drive for serious BBQ fans.
Something Different (worth the trip)
Clay & Fire
~25 minA standout wood-fired Near Eastern & Persian restaurant on Kansas City's Westside (815 W 17th St, KCMO) — farm-sourced produce, house-ground spices, and clay-oven cooking in a warm, intimate dining room. A memorable, one-of-a-kind dinner; reservations recommended.
