Amazing Zero-Proof Cocktails + Whimsical Vibe…read more Goat & Rabbit is such a gem for anyone looking for thoughtful, creative zero-proof cocktails in Kansas City. Their NA drinks are intentional, well-balanced, and honestly some of the most unique I've tried. I ordered two drinks: * Smedley Gaze (9.5/10) Spicy, refreshing, citrusy -- SO good. If you like a spicy margarita or anything with a kick, this is the one. The Ritual tequila, cucumber, Thai chili, and lime work together beautifully. * Petal Talk (7.5/10) Fruity and slightly sweet with the most amazing lychee foam. It had a flavor reminiscent of really good berry jam -- such a fun and unique drink. They don't serve food, but they are outside food friendly which is a huge plus. The atmosphere is whimsical and cozy, especially right now with their Mad Hatter inspired "Very Merry Unbirthday" tea party theme. It gives the whole place such a fun, imaginative vibe. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're sober, sober-curious, or just want an elevated NA cocktail experience in KC! (Review by @sobersipskc on TikTok and Instagram)

The staff was warm and welcoming, and the vibe struck a perfect balance between stylish, lively, relaxed and welcoming. As someone who loves rum drinks, I was excited by how many options they had to choose from. One detail I really appreciated: the menu is scan-to-view and includes photos of the drinks along with the glassware they're served in, such a helpful and fun touch. Overall, this place is a gem. My experience was fantastic from start to finish. 10/10 -- I will definitely be back.

The former Mockingbird (aka The View for us "old-timers") has been reimagined into one of the highest quality tiki bars I have ever experienced. The outdoor patio has been tidied up and the interior is like The Little Mermaid meets Pirates of the Caribbean with New Orleans flair (think hanging lanterns, skulls and a Velvet John Wayne) and you will get the vibe. Roxy was delighful and crafted fabulous drinks and stories. The seasonal menu changes every few months and current highlights include the "Better to Sea You With" and "Chai and Mighty". The "Zombie " was potent and "Morning Wench" with rum creme, spiced rum, black coffee liquor and cinnamon is the BEST "espresso" without espresso martini I have ever had! Take a ride on over to Kansas City Kansas or better yet take a Lyft, because you won't be able to have just one of their delicious drinks.

I'd say no, but don't let that stop you. I like it better here than Kon Tiki and while I'm still really sad over the loss of Tiki Cat (RIP you unicorn gem of a bar), The Blue Palm is divine it's own unique way. I stopped in here for a springtime patio meet up with friends and was not let down. The cocktails are some of the best tiki inspired drinks in town, and they have a great happy hour to boot. Shout out to the servers here as they are fabulous. I'll be back!

I've driven past the Fern Bar countless times, but had never stopped in. Truthfully, I knew next to…read morenothing about it. That changed yesterday, when Diana Condori, the bar manager, was named a 2026 James Beard Outstanding Professional in Cocktail Service semifinalist. As we love supporting restaurants and bars that receive that kind of recognition, my wife and I headed to Fern Bar that evening. I was especially curious what exactly a "sugarcane and agave bar" meant. We arrived around 5:30pm and found only a handful of guests inside. After congratulating the bartender who first served us, he mentioned that Diana was working that night and would stop by to meet us. During our conversation, Diana shared that she didn't even know she had been nominated. She woke up Tuesday to a call from owner Bryan Arri, who said he had big news and was coming over. Her first thought was that something terrible had happened--like the bar had burned down. Instead, he showed up with coffee and told her she was a James Beard honoree. Diana is originally from Bolivia and has lived in Kansas City most of her life, with the exception of time spent in San Francisco during the pandemic. She further refined her cocktail craft through local pop-ups in Kansas City under the name Condor's Cove. When Bryan was preparing to open Fern Bar, he reached out to bring her onto the team. The printed cocktail menu immediately reminded me of the Monarch and the Mercury Room--not surprising given Bryan's background at Manifesto and the Monarch. Thoughtful, intentional, and clearly designed for people who appreciate serious cocktails. We planned on having one or two drinks but ended up staying for three, thanks to an outstanding lineup and a memorable conversation with Diana. We tasted: * No Fly Zone - Rum, agave, pineapple foam * Mr. Collage - Smooth, elegant, egg-white cocktail * Three Negroni Lunch - Bitter, boozy, and beautifully balanced * Pendergast No. 4 - Complex and spirit-driven * It's Bananas - Banana liqueur with bright tropical notes * Off the Rails - Creative and well-executed rum/agave cocktail One downside of many cocktail-forward bars is the lack of food, but Fern Bar offers two varieties of mini burritos for $4--just enough protein to keep things balanced while indulging. Great concept, exceptional service, and truly memorable drinks. Check it out--and be sure to say hello to Diana.
