Arthur Bryant's Barbeque

About this business
Kansas City is famous for its barbecue, and this restaurant is one of the reasons why. Arthur Bryant's has been serving up slabs of slow cooked pork and beef since the 1930's. The small building is nothing fancy and resides in a somewhat disreputable part of town, but diners do not necessarily come for the ambiance. Nevertheless, Mr. Bryant has a couple of other locations around town. Casual dining is an understatement here, where guests line up, sometimes waiting up to 30 minutes just to order at the counter. Be sure to ord... read more

Awesome beef sandwitch, only pork ribs, great sauce! – This is not a fancy joint, it's on a street with prett much no other stores around it. It's only a couple blocks away from the 18th and Vine Jazz scene which is nice. The place is quite honestly a little grungy but that's totally cool with me. You get in through this metal door and there are a bunch of square tables and people that eat there just seem down to earth. There are at all times 3 workers running around and cleaning up the place so the tabes are pretty clean an... read more
Awesome food and friendly people – I live in Florida, but at least once a year me and my parents go to KC and eat at Arthur Bryant's. Obviously not just for it, but our trip is incomplete without it. My entire family besides immediate live in KC, and me and my uncle and grandma and cousins LOVE to go there after we get out of the plane or to the house if we drive. I highly reccomend this. Its the absolute best BBQ I know. They give you all the bread, sauces, and pickles you want, and the meat is amazing. It is a little price... read more
didn't meet my expectations – It was good atmosphere, exactly what you would expect for a bbq joint. But I wasn't that impressed with the BBQ itself. I especially didn't like the original bbq sauce. I much prefer Danny Edward's.
Enough food to induce a coma. Tasty tasty TASTY!!! – Awesome awesome BBQ. I regularly drive 150 miles just to eat at AB's. Of course, 18th and Brooklyn is the only one to visit. The portions are absolutely ridiculous, you WILL be sick if you eat it all. I usually eat there just before leaving town, then enjoy cruise control all the way home. Then it's nap time. For the best and the most Q for your buck, I highly recommend AB's.
Tasty burnt ends and fries – hmmm, how can I convey my life long true love for arthur bryant's!? My tummy is getting grumbly just thinking about it. I go in and get my order to go. I'll get the burnt ends and fries which comes with the sweet sauce. They will throw it on the burgundy take out paper, add the wonderfully stark white wonder bread, yell out "pickles" and with a nod from me the drooling customer, toss on about 2 cups of them, and smush it all together and seal with a yellow bryants sticker. mmmm. Smuch the fries y... read more
Been to some of the best "Q" places in this country - There's nothing to compare to AB's – One diner gets in line...The other gets a table - It's pure joy on Brooklyn Ave ...Whatever the size of the line...Just wait! You won't be sorry. Incredible Beef Brisket and Ribs.....Legitimate fresh cut fries, too. Bring your appetite. Just an amazing BBQ experience. You'll see people dressed to the nine's standing in line with people barely dressed. They're all there for the same thing...To enjoy perhaps this Country's best "Q"
Bring Back the old sausage! – The sausage has changed in the last year, no longer like an italian style sausage, now some type of sliced sausage. I now have to go elsewhere when craving a bbq sausage sandwitch, The BBQ beef sandwich is still the best in KC, nice tender juicy meat and that gritty sauce that makes it unique. The old sausage was better!
In a city of great barbeque... – This place takes the cake, or the sauce as it were. Of all the amazing barbeque joints in KC this is the best. Nothing except meat that has been smoked for ages, fries that induce a heart attack on sight and sauce that is good enough to eat with nothing except the bread you grab from open bags in the cafeteria line. You haven't been to KC until you have eaten at the Original Arthur Bryant's at 18th and Brooklyn.
We need Arthur in California! – WOW! I have heard of barbeque my entire life but until I got to Arthur Bryant's I never knew what all the hype was about. The food was awesome! Great sauces..mouth watering generous portions of meat, and a relaxed atmosphere like you are sitting in someones kitchen. I can't wait til my next visit to Arthur Bryant's!
