Lotawana Brewing, 9420 S. Shrout Road, Lake Lotawana actually is in Grain Valley, Mo. they're…read morespecial as they sit in a triangle of Grain Valley, Blue Springs and Lee's Summit. The holy trinity or mind, body, spirit connection! We stumbled upon the brewery by stopping by the Lota Bait store, which is also fun, and noticed their name listed. All we had to do was walk behind and sitting on a nice piece of land with shade trees, picnic tables, lots of chairs, fire pit and a stage for music was heaven. There's a pick up window for your beverage orders or you can go inside for their home brew, seltzers and cocktails made with Tom's Town Distilling spirits. That morning they were making homemade waffles, plain or with bananas and walnuts, one of each please, and their utensils came wrapped and are compostable. Can't wait to spend an evening there after having fun on Lake Lotawana or if you live close enough you're lucky. This place is sweet!

Perfectly sweet and light. The peach tee kolsch was good too- a nice balance of peach. The cherry limeade wheat was right on the edge of sour. It was good that it was served in a smaller glass so we didn't do too much of it. We also did a shot of the stonebreaker cinnamon whiskey, which was a really nice collab between fringe and another local distillery. Super smooth with an oaky flavor on the background. Absolutely love the dark carnival decor, especially the pinball machines, the giant skeleton and the patio with a garage door interior. Highly highly recommend on every level. You should go!

What an amazing brewer in the KC suburb of Lee's Summit…read more First off the art work is eclectic and many pieces pay homage to the beers on tap. There is a story for much of the art work which I will not do a disservice by trying put it in a review. Go there, see it and ask they'll gladly share the story. Second, INCREDIBLE beers are on tap. I tasted 10 during my visit and every single beer was worth trying. My faves were: Freshly Squeezed Blueberry Lemonade Wheat, Apple Pie Milkshake IPA and Calliope Caramel Cream Ale. Finally, the most important part of the operation is the people. Every single person that was present made me feel welcome and like I was already a part of their community. WOW, I was left feeling like I'd made new friends which I know I did. I travel to KC at least once per year and every year I will return to support this awesome brewery. Thank you for a memorable experience.

At first, I was having a difficult time hearing the music, so when a spot closer to the stage opened up, I moved. I later ordered a beer flight, and the bartender was great describing the different beers and checking in with me as I tasted each one. I enjoyed the musician despite the large crowd and the challenge of hearing him over the many conversations. Eventually, the crowd thinned out, and I was able to better enjoy the music. Overall, it's a nice brewery.

We went inside and it immediately opened up to a large bar which was nice because I could know exactly what they had available on tap. We chose for a table and saw some games like darts, karaoke, etc. We ordered some apps like the nachos and bacon wrapped jalapenos. They were large portions and definitely were flavor bombs. I also ordered wings with mojo sauce which I recommend. The sauce was like a sweet tangy taste with a little bit of heat. I also ordered a cold beer to wash it down. Overall it was a great experience and can't wait to spend more time here in the cooler weather

I mean soo good. I had a Mojito to drink and I wasn't a fan. It had some kind of coconut flavor in it and I don't like coconut. I've never had one that had coconut in it before. Hubs had some kind of punch and it was tasty. I ended up getting one of those too andnit was nice. For meals, we both got wings. Our waitstaff misheard me and gave me boneless wings I stead of traditional wings as I ordered. No biggie. I ate them but I'm here to tell you, I'm not a fan of boneless wings. It's hunks of meat in sauce. Hubs got traditional wings as he ordered and he liked them. Overall, decent place with decent food. It's close so we'll be back.

They seem to be a local hang out spot for those that know about this place. Business is hidden from main road. You probably won't know to come here unless someone told you about it. They do serve food and drinks here. We just came in for a drink tonight and ordered their old fashioned. Drink was decent and pricing reasonable than other places. They also have outdoor patio which would be nice in warmer weather. Location is also next to a man-made pond. TV screens for sport viewing and music playing in background.

Seamless lunch catering experience!…read more I worked with management to pull together a delivered, hot, boxed lunch for a 30 person client meeting. Communication was excellent and they were able to swap in some vegetarian options at the last minute. The food arrived right on time and was hot, labeled and ready to go! Everyone raved about the food and we had a room full of happy folks. I would definitely call upon them again!

We were hoping for a better experience, but unfortunately, it wasn't very good. When we entered the…read morerestaurant, the host avoided eye contact and quickly seated us at a small bistro table right by the door for no clear reason. It was cold, and most of the restaurant was empty. When my boyfriend asked if we could sit near the bar, where there were plenty of available tables, the host didn't even look at us and simply said, "Help yourself." I'm not sure why we were treated that way. When the food arrived, my boyfriend's burger was completely different from what he ordered. He ordered a BBQ burger with extra crispy bacon, but it came with no sauce and no bacon at all. My burger was very dry, and the fries were overcooked. I do like crispy fries, but these were far beyond that. I assume the food issues were a kitchen mistake. On a positive note, the ambiance was nice, and our server was kind and attentive. She checked on us more than three times. My boyfriend is so kind and he didn't want to send the burger back.

They do offer food and have non alcoholic options. I didn't try the food because I literally ate right before coming here but I definitely want to try it on a return trip. They are dog friendly and I was thrilled to see and get to pet a big puppy who was there being a very good girl. The bartenders have all been super nice. They have a lot of beer. Over 10. I know because we ordered two flights which consisted of five tasters each and we still didn't try everything. But I did enjoy what we did get. They had a really good smoked porter that would pair perfectly with some bbq. And they also had a blackberry lemonade seltzer that was refreshing and perfect for this summer heat wave. If you're in the area definitely stop in.

They also have a good amount of "limited" menu items to eat (loaded fries, pretzels, hotdogs...) They were going to have karaoke that night but I didn't stay that late.

This will be a place that I stop in more when I'm in the area.
