Woody’s KC

Boyfriend and I were dancing and he picked me up and we fell accidentally. They kicked us out when we barely made a scene, there was barely anyone down where we were dancing together. It was an honest mistake, we weren't drunk just enjoying each other. I get it if we were stumbling and being loud and causing fights, etc, understandable. But we were doing NONE of the above. We were not drunk at all, we were just having fun. To be kicked out for that reason and to be asked to not come back was excessive and was unacceptable. I get there are certain rules that must followed, but when talking to said people, if we do not showcase stuttering, slurred speech, hunched over and unresponsive are all reasons to kivk someone out. We didn't meet any of the above requirements to actually kick anyone out for ill behavior. We are not not loud, we were just having a moment together. Rules of an establishment should be where you walk in and can read it upon entering. If there are specific rules then they should be showcased. Other than him picking me up and we fell there was not actually any reason to kick us out, a notification to not do that would have been acceptable. My boyfriend had just told me loved me tonight and we were in the rose colored glasses moment, we are sorry if we did cause a "scene." The excitement was real and we were not too drunk to be "handled" by the rude bartender. It was a wholesome moment and this bar does not accept that apparently. We drove home and made it safely because WE WERE NOT DRUNK!!! Just enjoying the moment together. I get they have a lot of those types of customers but based on the characteristics of said drunk person, we did not meet those requirements. The environment was acceptable.

It's a fun cozy little gay bar in Kansas City. The drink prices are reasonable and the workers have always been friendly to me. I just wish the place could be bigger because it does sometimes feel cramped.

went on brat night and while it was extremely crowded so the line to the bar took a while all of the staff i interacted with was really nice even though i’m sure they were exhausted! will definitely be coming back!

Checked out this bar Saturday night. There was a good crowd. The DJ was playing some great 80's remix and some current tunes too. Bartenders were busy but pretty quick with the drink orders. People were very friendly. The layout is on several different levels, none of the rooms are just real big but it didn't feel cramped. We stayed till the bar closed and will definitely go back on our next trip home to KC.

Best gay bar in town

Woody’s is one of my all-time favorite LGBTQ+ establishments! From the friendly staff, to the value they place on finding great entertainment, and right down to the welcoming patio; Woody’s is my go-to place when it comes to catching up with old friends and making new ones! I’ve appreciated the measures they’ve taken to ensure a fun, safe, and affirming atmosphere throughout the past year.

on a Sunday afternoon, the bartender asked to see my ID. shortly thereafter there was a patron making ageist comments. I am 50 years old. the atmosphere was not chill or relaxing, imho. this is mid America, there was no style or openness or kindness. it did smell like a bathroom.

Fun place for sharing drinks and good times!
