In a city with as rich an Irish heritage as Kansas City [2], you’re bound to find numerous Irish bars sprinkled throughout the metro area. O’Dowd’s Little Dublin captures an ethnic authenticity that’s made it a favorite bar since the ornately carved double doors swung open in 1996.

Favorite Irish beers and whiskeys are in plentiful supply, and for those who prefer sweeter libations O’Dowd’s offers a quarterly cocktail menu that captures the tastes of the season.

O’Dowd’s often hosts live music, and on New Year’s Eve bar patrons ring in the Irish New Year at 6 p.m. with free champagne. When you’re there, don’t forget an Irish toast: Slainte!
