“ The sound is off the hook!!! Young, trendy crowd with a few older folks. Fun vibes. Great drinks! Loads of good pic spots! Go early to avoid the cover charge. ”
“ I went for the NYE event and my expectations were exceeded. The atmosphere is nice and clean and fun decor. The ticket included “small bites” and it turned out to be a beautifully set up table with labeled everything plus fresh pizza later. All the employees were super friendly. ”
“ Located in the west bottoms of Kansas City, this music venue offers a live DJ, craft cocktails, and a unique atmosphere for anyone looking to have a good night. They also offer mocktails and non-alcoholic beverages. Usually there is a food truck outside the venue to satisfy your late night cravings. ”
“ What a unique venue!!! This unassuming old building looks like it's seen better days from the outside. Once you enter, you're transported into a one of a kind bar/ club. The industrial feel is softened by an abundance of live plants, sky lights and comfy conversational seating areas with couches. The chain curtains, old motorcycle and vintage go-go dancer cage are surprisingly not out of place and just enhance the cool vibe. The custom drink menu had a nice selection and the bartender had a generous pour. Definitely a younger crowd, but good vibes. Worth checking them out. ”
“ Took a date here for clay by candlelight. Essentially we made pinch pottery in this wicked cool place. The music was on point, bilateral style, and the staff was clearly excited to be there. Atmosphere is second to none, at this place. ”
“ I CANNOT WAIT TO COME BACK! Never having been here before, my friend and I goofed up twice. Once was not understanding that the location looks weird so upon arrival we thought we were in the wrong spot and the second was coming too early. Don’t get us wrong! We LOVED the cocktails and the lack of line, and the decor is just absolutely perfect. However we didn’t realize it wouldn’t get bumping til 11 pm or so haha. Drinks were immaculate. So good my friend had 3 of the same one and I had 2 of mine. Definitely coming back to dance the night away :) ”
“ In The Lowest Ferns is a haven for dancing. The ambiance is impeccable. Each detail of this space was thoughtfully curated. The sound system set up so it doesn't hit the seating areas and you can sit and talk with friends or step into the center to dance. They are also always bringing in new international DJ's as well as highlighting local DJ's in a way that is refreshing. You pay for what you get, and there is a reason the cover is higher here, it's not a dive bar, it's an experience and Kansas City is fortunate to have this space. ”
“ Loved the vibes, added security, and seeing the Tesseract art installation was the highlight of the night. It’s a night club, but has a more intimate lounge feel with a dance floor that starts heating up around 9:00 when the DJ set begins. Good for drinks and convo before that. Will definitely be back for more. ”
