Scooter’s 1118th bar, first visited in 2015.

Whiplash, Topeka

This biker bar was rather tricky to get to due to road construction, but was worth the effort to figure it out.

Both the staff and the patrons were welcoming and friendly. We chatted with a few of the locals and admired the wicker bike.

The back room has two pool tables, video games, and what looked like a small stage area. We didn’t notice it during our visit, but my research later revealed a covered patio in the back that we somehow missed.

Scooter’s 1109th bar, first visited in 2015.

The Shack, Topeka

Our first stop on a birthday pub crawl for my youngest brother Kurt, we were going into this place completely blind. All we knew was there was a bar here, nothing else. Had we known they opened at 6am and served breakfast, we’d have arrived a lot sooner!

Food-wise, apart from breakfast, they seem to be mainly known for their burgers.

There’s pool tables, claw machines (where we won a purple hippo/dinosaur thing that is another story for another time), and pinball machines that we spent a lot of time at. There’s also a pretty good sized beer garden.

This is a 3.2 bar, so no hard alcohol and a midnight closing time.
