(South Waldo, Kansas City, MO)
Formerly Deangelo’s Lounge

Now “Patrick’s Bar No Grill”

Scooter’s 57th bar, first visited in 2006.

This place has a cool split-level bar, with a big screen in one corner and a pool table in another.

When we first visited it was DeAngelo’s:

Now it’s Patrick’s, and other than the name it seems pretty much the same.

(South Waldo, Kansas City, MO)

Closed, but a new bar has opened in the same location.
Now called Murphy’s Pub and Grill. It’s still the same people. Just a new name and expanded menu.

Scooter’s 56th bar, first visited in 2006.

I can’t remember if we went here with the intention of eating or just to check to see if they had any beer. Well, we didn’t eat. Instead we partook of some Guinness.

Grand Saloon

(South Waldo, Kansas City, MO)

Scooter’s 53rd bar, first visited in 2006.

Located south-southeast of Waldo, this bar almost seems out of place in the neighborhood. (Though BB’s being located a few blocks east helps it not seem quite so isolated.)

I’d classify the Grand Saloon as somewhere halfway between a restaurant-bar and a low-key lounge. It’s a bar that doesn’t seem to be very well known, but is a lot of fun for those who know about it. The bartender on my last visit was pretty funny and we chatted with him for quite a while.

The kitchen is open until 11pm nightly, and there’s also karaoke every Saturday night. I don’t know if they still do this, but on the day of my first visit (in a July while back) they were having a free BBQ that evening.
