The Ultimate Kansas City Girls Weekend
By Kathryn Greene
Whether you’re coming from near or far, you’ll discover quickly that between cocktail bars, shopping, nightlife, the art scene and more, Kansas City has everything girls need to have fun. So pack your bags and gather your closest girlfriends—it’s time for a getaway.
Here are some of the best recommendations for a memorable girls weekend in KC:
Shop ’Til You Drop
No girls weekend would be complete without some retail therapy. Wander the historic Country Club Plaza for unbeatable outdoor shopping with a view. Be sure to stop into Kansas City original stores like Baldwin KC for selections you won’t find anywhere else. When it’s time for a break, stop and recharge at T. Loft, which sells fresh-pressed juice and protein balls.
Brunch Time
As the weekend draws to a close, reminisce about the memories you made throughout the trip over brunch. Avenues Bistro, nestled in Kansas City's charming Brookside neighborhood, anchors a string of independent shops and art galleries. Try one of their signature bottomless breakfast cocktails like pomegranate punch or a "spritzzle me this." Each entree includes access to the brunch bar, which is stocked with homemade pastries, desserts, seasonal fresh fruit and assorted charcuterie and cheeses.
Take It Home
Looking for something to remember your girls’ getaway? Charlie Hustle on the Country Club Plaza sells the now-iconic Kansas City Heart Tee, a favorite among visitors and locals alike.
