About this restaurant

Innovative
Romantic
Neighborhood gem

Blvd Tavern is a modern American Tavern focused on delivering warm hospitality, delicious food and great drinks in a comfortable neighborhood setting in the heart of the Kansas City Crossroads Art District.
Our menu changes frequently and focuses on seasonal ingredients. We prepare everything on our menu from scratch, from the buttermilk biscuits at brunch to the hand cut fries on our daily grind burger. We offer dinner five nights a week, lunch Wed-Fri and Brunch on Sat and Sun mornings.
Our dining room is a mix of brick and reclaimed wood (we even have wood from a barn the owner's great-grandfather built on the family farm in 1902). Our quaint patio is one of Kansas City's best kept secrets.

Amazing staff. We were a rowdy bachelor party brunch and the staff met the vibe. Food was delicious too. Their Bloody Mary is top tier.

It was my second visit to BLVD Tavern & it was fabulous again! The staff is so nice, attentive and helpful. The food is great and the drinks are fabulous. I love that with it just being me and a girlfriend they say us in a quieter area.

Really enjoyed the prime rib sandwich, tender and flavorful and enough for two small eaters. Outdoor space is very urban and quaint. Wait staff was friendly and engaging.

Small menu but quality food. Boulevard Burger was outstanding, as were the hand cut fries. The Boulevard Old Fashioned was fantastic. We sat at the bar. All of the staff was friendly and kind. Great food though a little pricey. The burger was $20 but we thought it was worth it.
