This review is long overdue. I’ve been enjoying Cliff’s Taphouse at least once a week for the last few months and every time the food is phenomenal, the beer is cold and the service is amazing. I’ve had just about everything on the menu at this point and every time I’m blown away by how good the food is.

If you’re looking for good old KC barbecue, look no further than Cliff’s Taphouse just south of downtown! Starting with service, it was very attentive and friendly. Food came out in an orderly fashion, and the food was incredible! I had the BBQ burger, and it was fantastic! All the different ingredients in the burger came together to form an amazing and delectable burger. Even the French fries were crunchy and so good! All this, in a rustic, urban environment. Very well done!

I have eaten here several times and the service is always excellent! Came for brunch today and enjoyed the bottomless mimosas. Because they have the best sweet potato fries I have ever tasted, we all got sandwiches. My buffalo chicken sand. was good, the salmon club was unique and excellent! Waffle fries were nice and crispy. The dark chocolate tart was a hit as well. I also love the fact that on Thursdays they contribute part of their earnings to a charity, which they rotate. The owner is very friendly and is out interacting with his guests. I’m considering using their spacious patio for my bridal shower. Nice to go somewhere you feel good about spending your hard earned money!

Grandma forgive me! This was the BEST gravy ever! Love my meals here but never tried the weekend brunch. Awesome! Also unique, an engaged owner and staff that works as a team to give you the best dining experience possible. The outside deck was protected from sun (or rain!) and the shaded breeze + ceiling fans meant 90 degree weather was not going to ruin the vibe. In an area often overlooked between the Plaza and Crown Center, this is a “don’t miss out” dining opportunity.

Ever since Cliff’s Taphouse opened, I’ve been wanting to go. Finally went yesterday and I am absolutely in love with this local gem. Atmosphere is nice, chill, and casual which I liked. The food exceeded my expectations. I was blown away. The wings were crispy and I liked how it was the whole wing rather than separated flats and drumsticks. The salmon BLT shook me to the core, it was a good sized grilled/charred salmon fillet with the perfect amount bacon enough to provide flavouring without overpowering the salmon. The flatbread was also delicious, we added chicken to the mushroom flatbread. Chocolate torte was perfect, creamy, not too soft, not too hard, not too sweet, and not too bitter. Overall, I had a great experience here and I would definitely recommend going!

We had an excellent time at Cliff’s. There was a group of eight and service was great. The restaurant was crowded. The food was very delicious, everyone enjoyed their meals. I had the buffalo chicken because their sauce is made in-house and I wanted to taste it – it was good! There is a dedicated parking lot as well as street parking available. This includes accessible parking, entrance and restrooms. Restrooms are gender-specific. There’s a patio on the side of the restaurant that has covering overhead. The seating inside is very comfortable.

I’ve been to Cliff’s before during the Zombie Crawl. oday My book club had to meet here at the last minute because our original venue closed early today without notice. I needed to find a place for a large party within a close distance and I am so glad I moved the party to Cliff’s because it was a great experience and I would recommend this venue for anybody looking for a place for book club. The wonderful staff at Cliff’s accommodated all of us, got us a great table, provided excellent service, with great drinks and food — I recommend the Gorgonzola potatoes. I am definitely coming back!

I arrived before the kitchen was officially open. I was seated promptly. My server, Brooke, brought me ☕ and ! As the kitchen opened I ordered the Sausage & Peppers Entree.
