Gluten Free KC
These are not ALL dedicated GF facilities - but they are ALL familiar with GF and celiac requirements. They ALL also have delicious and addicting GF options.
While not entirely gf, this restaurant has AMAZING options for breakfast, lunch, dinner, desert, snacks, and more. I haven't been able to have a delicious cinnamon roll in years, until Billie's. They offer gf, df, vegan, and other options as well!

They have the BEST gf mac & cheese with popcorn chicken + gf fried pickles. There are also tons of other options, including gf brews!

Local favs of our family - most are family owned, or just lesser known options in the area. While some may seem obvious, they aren't always - unless you know the area!
The best burnt ends & cheesy corn you could ever ask for. Truly the BEST bbq in town. AND it's a small family business. I cannot say enough good things about them - in fact now I am craving it... brb going to get the burnt ends & cheesy corn!
Roscoe's BBQ | 9711 Kaw Dr, Edwardsville, KS 66111
Housemade fresh tortillas, delicious margs, drinkable queso, family atmosphere. What more could you ask for?! They catered our wedding + we eat here at least once a week, if not more.
Sombrero's Mexican Cantina | 22702 Midland Dr, Shawnee, KS 66226
Delicious street tacos with a food-truck vibe, but in a building. There is an ordering window for you to order "on the go" and an indoor area for you to sit & enjoy your tacos & margs!

These will typically booze related, but I may also throw in some fav coffee shops and other sips in the area!
I love their cocktails, specifically their butterbeer (it's not beer, it's a cocktail). Highly recommend going, any time that they are open! I am not a coffee person, but my husband and friends love their espresso. They also have car shows sometimes ...

Up-Down KC · 101 Southwest Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64108
A distillery tour at Tom's Town Distilling Co. is a great experience for anyone, especially when you have family or friends in town! A group tour makes it even more lively, and doing a tasting after is top tier!
Distillery Tour - Tom's Town Distilling Co.
As a non-beer drinker (thanks celiac) I still found this tour neat! Walking through everything and learning about their process was very interesting. I also have attended weddings here and they have been so fun!
