    CLOSED ON SUNDAY AT NOON

    THIS PLACE IS NOT OPEN ANYMORE. As many people stated we came on a Sunday at Noon and the place was completely shut down. Apparently they do this every Sunday. Be in mind it's the middle of the NFL playoffs and why they would decide to close during peak hours is beyond me.

    Bar with chiefs playing

    Friendly people working there, reasonable prices. My wife loves that they've become a Chiefs bar too. Good selection of beer with some ciders, seltzer, and a non alcoholic beer. I recommend against the cocktails - clearly not an emphasis here.

    Had a great time at Buzzworks when watching the Chiefs game this weekend. This is a KC bar through and through, so if you come during Gameday, expect some loud and rowdy guests. But it's all in good fun. It wasn't actually too busy when we were there, but I assume it does get busier for more important games. We were able to easily find plenty of seating for everyone. They have KC specialty beers that you can't get anywhere else, which is a very pleasant surprise for KC natives. However I have to say I was a little disappointed when I ordered a diet coke and it was a can instead of a refillable glass. My only true critique of the place is the lack of any type of food. When you sit there for four hours, you are bound to get hungry, and although they allow outside food, there aren't many places around to get any. If it did have some snacks, it would be the perfect Gameday bar.

    This review is for all fans of Real Madrid. Madridista Asi Asi Asi gana el madrid. Love it. As a Real Madrid fan, I loved the atmosphere here, what an absolute game to watch here at buzzworks, it was spectacular game and the crowd were amazing here. Real sport fan bar club. The roofs were on the go when the Madrid won the game and the crowd were amazing. Get your light drinks before you get in and grab the seats and top floor has the best viewing of the game. Even if you stand and watch its still the best view from the top floor. Watching a soccer game, stay put because you never know. Cheers to all the Buzz Works crew, did a great job and handled the crowd very well. Hala Madrid! Champions

    Was in town for the playoff game between the Chiefs and Jags and didn't want to miss the game. My cousin, who lives in the area said that Buzzworks was the official Chiefs bar in the Bay. Headed in about halftime while the 49ers were playing. It was completely full of 49er fans and a few people with KC attire. It was standing room only. As soon as that game was over it started clearing out and all the Chiefs decor went up. It was a blast! It felt like being in KC! Buzzworks only serves drinks but there is a pizza stand outside and you can bring food in which is great. I just wish I knew that before hand! The service was friendly but you had to go to the bar to get your drinks. Fortunately the Chiefs won so it was a big celebration!

    a sports bar with a large screen

    Great place to watch sports! The best part is that they play the sound!! I hate watching sports with no sound. This bar gets it. There are two levels and one main bar area. Decent selection of craft beers. You are also allowed to bring outside food. They also have arcade games. Overall great place to hang with friends. Would recommend.

    Niners win :)

    Nice huge screens and great bartenders, but they need to add hooks to put our bags and coats underneath the countertop. Any decent pub should have these hooks to hang our purses on, so we don't have to place them on top of the bar in the way of everything. I suggested that they add these hooks last year when the Niners were in the playoffs, and this year they still haven't added any. Adding these hooks to hang stuff up would change my rating from 2 to four (4) stars.

There was a cup flipping event which was super fun to spectate, along side the rotating pictures of the bar's beloved pooches . We ordered 2 western burgers, 12 count bone-in wings (half bbq, half Hawaiian), and an appetizer of corn dogs, tater tots, bacon Mac & cheese bites, and mozzarella sticks. Later we also added boneless buffalo wings which were so tangy, well-seasoned, and HOT. The western bacon burgers were so delicious, crispy bacon, crispy onion rings, and some bomb.com bbq sauce. The wings were drowned in sauce (just how we like them) , the bbq was to die for and the Hawaiian had the perfect little kick of spice for our picky eaters. The appetizer platter was also fried to perfection, with the perfect crunch on the tater tots & corn dogs. The Mac & cheese bites & mozzarella sticks were perfectly cheesed, with an amazing cheese pull on the mozzarella sticks. Along with the food, my boyfriend and I ordered some drinks. I got a margarita and he got a Guinness. Both drinks were good, very standard and well served. The couple behind the bar were very funny and super kind to us being dazed after all the walking.
