The Cannonball Pale Ale, dry-hopped with centennial, citra, and cascade hops, offers a traditional yet refreshing taste that is a crowd favorite.

It was our first visit to this delightful spot, and I can confidently say it won't be our last! Our server, Jay, was exceptional--his attentiveness and warm demeanor made the experience all the more enjoyable. The barbecue here was nothing short of incredible, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. To complement our meal, we indulged in a flight of sour beers that were absolutely divine, each one crafted with a perfect balance of tartness and depth. It was a memorable dining experience that left us eager to return!

Came up here to Liberty and checked out 3 Halves BBQ. A cool little spot. There is plenty of seating, kind of crunched in but it's really not that bad...it's a cool set up. The workers are great and the service was enjoyable. The BBQ was pretty good. Not expected in a small town. I drove here to specifically try out their burnt ends. I will say their burnt ends are better than their brisket IMO. The prices were steep. I can't remember the exact prices but I know a 1/2lb of burnt ends was around $18 or more. That's an insane price hike! They're good but they are pricey. Great BBQ, great restaurant. If you're in Liberty and want BBQ I'd suggest going. It's not the best in the area but no where near the worst. It's above average and I'd be surprised if you left unhappy!

Checked out this spot with our pub pass. I was a bit disappointed they didn't have any seltzers since I'm gluten-free, and most places on the list have been able to swap my beer for a seltzer. I went with a lemon drop cocktail instead--it was decent. Our server was friendly and chatted with us a bit, which was nice. The vibe of the place was great, and I really enjoyed the music. Looking forward to coming back and trying the food next time!

So impressed with this place!! Wow everything was so great. The ribs had amazing flavor and the meat was so tender and juicy. Didn't even need bbq sauce! Burnt ends were amazing. Even the sides were great. The Mac and cheese was so good! The cheese curds had the perfect cheese pull. Wow. What a cute place! No bad things to say!

Reviewed this place back when it was "the jousting pigs" and found it to be a gross place with very bad meat but i wouldnt have ever called it bbq. What a relief to get to finally experience some of this amazing bbq that KC natives claim they have 'round these parts. (im from texas and always have high expectations) Husband and I had a bit of a wait when we came in the door. hostess was a little busy but once she caught a glimpse of us she visibly made efforts to get to us as quick as she could. Greeted with a smile and thats always nice. Enjoy seeing staff that are friendly and upbeat. There were families and couples so dont shy from bringing the kids. Not sure if they have high chairs so call first if you have a need. Our table was a really chilly and i understand the staff is rushing around and the kitchen is hot so they feel warm. but i have to say there were two families who both had a kid with a blanket. not sure if they were regulars and knew it was cold inside but they had the right idea. My husband's tenderloin was massive. and very tender. i tried some and it was wonderful. I asked our server which she recommended between the burnt ends, should i get beef or pork. She immediately insisted the pork was perfection and was she ever telling the truth. Hubs could not keep his hands off my burnt ends and helped me make quick work of them. Be warned they are filling. had to take my turkey home with me. Everything was delicious. They have alcohol for those that like and bar seating as well. table seating is low or high top tables. no booths. Couple of TVs Didnt use restrooms so cant report on those. Staff was great. and sweet tea was actually sweet and fresh as well. Place needed a little tidying up and seemed like it was half finished. the empty fridge case was an eye sore behind our table and since it was lit up it was super bright being empty in a darkly lit area of the restaurant. areas seemed crowded and our table was too small for all our food plus the table condiments and drink menu/paper towel. need larger tables even for two seater tables if you want all that stuff to fit. would not have been able to keep the chips and queso on the table with dinner had we decided to order it with the meal. Just something for owner to consider. Overall i really recommend. id love to see this place last and grow. That PORK. THOSE BURNT ENDS! thanks for dinner.

Was visiting Kansas City for work, and this was one of the breweries that I was told to check out. Swung by on a Monday evening, which just happened to be open mic night. Several good performers that played that night, definitely could tell it was a lot of locals and some repeat performers. Great ambience! I chose to have one of their IPAs, which was pretty tasty, and also had their pork nachos. The nachos were a huge for the full order, and they had ambled delicious, pulled pork on top, along with cheeses, scallions, hot jalapeños, and they all blended very well for a delicious taste would definitely come back here again

This was a nice chill vibe dispite them being fairly busy. We actually really Enjoyed this place. It was one of the better margaritas I've had in a while. normally don't drink all of my drinks but this one was easy. They brew some of their own beer. You can even ask about purchasing some to go. We got their spicy cheese curds for an appetizer & they were good & so spicy! Their ranch was good & helped dial it down a notch. I ordered ribs with wasabi slaw & ranch beans. The wasabi slaw had the most subtle wasabi flavor. I'm going to try to recreate it at home. It was Really unique. The beans weren't my style but they weren't bad. They had more of a tomato base chili style flavor where I prefer more of the bbq style. But other than that, no complaints. The ribs were fall off the bone & a nice introduction to Kansas City :) My husband really enjoyed his pulled pork sandwich & loved the Mac & cheese! We definitely recommend if you're in the area.
