If you are looking for a fun atmosphere and good food, The Ship is a great spot! It used to be so hard to get a table on First Friday weekends, but the expansion has really opened it up. I prefer to sit in the old part that feels like your dining in a shop, but the new bar side is open and leaves lots of space for social distancing. The smoked chicken salad is my favorite menu item, but I’ve honestly never had a meal I didn’t enjoy. The staff is always friendly. I would highly recommend.

The ship always has good food & tasty drinks! Couldn’t tell u the name of the drinks except….they are tasty!
Two diff experiences from sitting at the table & the serve there vs the bar. Either way, your needs are provided!
Haven’t ever been there late enough to hear a band so can’t comment on the entertainment. Cool ambience tho and any time I’m in the bottoms, I will at least stop for a cocktail!
Plenty of room for social distance.

Had a great lunch with the family. This place has a very awesome feel to it. The food was awesome and the staff was very helpful. Definitely will stop in the next time we're in the area.

This place has it all. True Kansas City vibe. Run and supported by local artists. Connections, support, & respect with local jazz district and underground music and creative community. I've also seen a variety of bands mixed with cultural/worldly, local/non-local, and KC specialty talent. The music vibe is always super awesome and full of feel-good energy.
There is a great dancing space in expanded area on busy nights, both small stage and large stage areas for those touring music curiousities.
I've spent many late nights, Mardi Gras celebrations, lunch gatherings, and celebrations here. The staff is friendly but ain'tno fools (arrive respectfully). People are usually smiling, vibing, and comfortable within this inclusive venue. It's the full package for entertainment and food. You can dress casual or dress up. They are all there. Saints always welcome.

They never disappoint. Whenever I’m in the area I absolutely have to stop by and grab something.
*Update
The sausage is super spicy! You will get full because you will have to take plenty of water after taking one bite of the sandwich. But it’s still good. I don’t think I would ever get it again because of the spicy level but again, it was good. My belly is NOT going to like me later.

I really like this place. Especially when it isn't super packed and you have room to move. Great drinks, love sitting at the bar. Bartenders are cool. Awesome atmosphere. Good menu with tasty food. Just a fun place to be with friends.
I like going in the back entrance, even though that parking lot can be pretty treacherous.

Have you been to "The Ship"? Go, just go! Try the Blackberry jalapeños margarita, it is one of the best cocktails I've ever had. The Cubano was great! The live music is worth whatever cover! Want a night out in KC, "The Ship" is it!...and the no bake cookie...Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, but the sevice is three stars thus my rating. (It was really 1 star but I loved everything else) especially the saxophone which raised to a 4 star...

We normally love this place so I will give 4 stars, the Restaurant week was a huge bummer.
We are lunch regulars and love the Shrimp Po Boy. It was not offered, we were never offered a drink other than water, and the place was very cold. We were also told there was not even firecracker sauce to offer us but when I asked another lady for a dipping sauce she listed firecracker sauce and we got it at the table. We will be back but $20 for a sandwich, fries and a cookie (that we didn't want) with a water is far from a good deal, especially for lunch. Wish the regular menu was offered.
I wouldn't that suggest people avoid the place, it is good food, just avoid restaurant week, rip off.
Edit: not sure how else you want me to elaborate. I wish you left the normal menu for regular customers. Your restaurant week lunch menu was a huge rip off. I think it cost more than it would have on a regular day. I was polite and left the 4 stars because of last experiences, this experience was a 1 star experience and had it been my first time I certainly never would return. $20 for a thin chicken sandwich and fries with a cookie. Ridiculous!
