Zoo Bar Bar & Pub ·$

Zoo Bar has been plying drinks and laughs to the downtown K.C. area for over 25 years. It is a quintessential dive bar, there is graffiti on almost everything, PBR flows freely and there are no beer taps, just cans and bottles. The bar is always filled with regulars and sometimes its difficult to find a spot since it is such a small place. Nonetheless, if you are downtown and do not want to break the bank to have a few drinks, Zoo Bar is the spot.

Great for a dive bar! When going out in the power & light area, we love to start our night here. This bar is cash only, has darts & pool tables and has tvs for any games that are on. There's also...
