McFadden’s Failing To Impress
The KC Beer Blog reviews a visit to McFadden’s and mostly only gives good marks for the look of the place.
If Kansas City’s Power & Light District ends up being a huge success then these first impressions downtown KC’s newest Sports Saloon makes may not matter.
It is of course still very early days, and it’s not uncommon for good pubs to take 3 months to find their place but McFadden’s needs to be careful because there are other places to watch the game. And in 3 months time Raglan Road will be open.
Head over to the KC Beer Blog - it’s a very detailed account from somebody who likes pubs. Here’s just a snippet:
My perception of the restaurant has now dropped from a “6″ to a “3,” although I should probably give a couple extra bonus points just for the cool look of the place. It has potential, but two out of three strikes on a first visit? We’ll just have to see how this place does… Others I’ve spoken with have said roughly the same things, giving McFadden’s lukewarm reviews at best, describing the venue as “too corporate.”
