Moxie Bar and Grill

If this bar was transplanted to central Missouri or Kansas, it would fit in perfectly.  It is definitely a quintessential Midwest bar complete with cheap beer and friendly, interesting clientele.  We enjoyed the three pool tables near the back, and a DJ comes in on the weekends.  22oz premium beers are $4 til 10pm every night, which was a great deal but the cheap Long Island Tea pitchers were tart rather than tasty.  

The food is typical bar food with an emphasis on frying.  The Buffalo Chicken Wrap was tasty, and unfortunately the BBQ is no longer an option.  The owner said he will start offering pizzas this summer, which might be a nice addition.

Overall, I likely wouldn't come here on my own, but the cheap beers and interesting people watching made for an enjoyable evening.

Three reasons why you should go to Moxie Bar and Grill
1. Cheap drinks
2. Pool Tables
3. Excellent BBQ
Need I say more? Well if you insist..

I stumbled upon this place when I was planning my boyfriend's surprise party. We decided to go out and take a look before committing to any particular location, and I couldn't be happier that we did
I admit I was little concerned when we arrived to an empty parking lot at 8pm on a Saturday night.  Those concerns were soon laid to rest once we stepped inside.  Moxie is a throw back to what a good neighborhood "dive" bar is supposed to be.  
Cheap drinks, which include 22oz glasses of beer for $4 and some of the best drink specials I've seen anywhere in the Metro, including Daily Happy hour specials.
Friendly environment with very attentive staff
Decent pool tables set apart from the rest of the bar providing a nice flow for those there to do more than just drink.
If all of these things weren't enough,  we discovered Moxie's has something most "dive" bars only dream of, - a really good food menu and some of the best BBQ in KC.  I really cant say enough about the BBQ at Moxie, tender juicy meat brought to you w/ a carousel of sauces to ensure you get just the flavor you want; delicious baked beans; good fries and the potato salad and coleslaw, seemingly unimpressive sides, were anything but.
Friday and Saturday night women get three (3) free drinks between 10-12 when they pay a $2 cover.
Located a mere 6 minutes from Downtown KC, right across the river on Hwy. 9.

What is not to love about Moxie's? Nothing!

Great little neighborhood bar.  Its under a new owner so it has a new menu and drink specials.  I come here often during the week as that is when you get the best service.  The weekend nights get a litte bit out of control but if your in for people watching you won't beat it here!  The drink prices are super cheap and the new food menu is pretty good.  If your looking for great bartenders and cheap drinks give Moxie a try.
