    The first time I tried this bar out I was running to the Crown Center Ice Rink, and needed a shot before ice skating. At the bar I asked for the weirdest shot they have, so they immediately reached for the Bacon Whiskey. You want that bacon whiskey. Oh yes. Happy hours for organizations I like are always happening here, and I think it's for the awesome live music. Dancing is bound to break out sooner or later. Kegs and Eggs for the Buzz in the mornings never start soon enough to actually get to work on time. Somehow the most often drink special I run into here is cheap Tank 7. There is no way to complain about that!

    Pretty hipstery, but good vibe and chill people. The bartenders were friendly and didn't mind getting us waters (I was DD and other friend was sobering up). They do charge a cover if a band is playing, $5. Other than that they have a good menu of beer on tap and were knowledgeable about the menu.

    Pretty good dive bar. It was stand up comedy night which made for an interesting evening. The comedians were first timers or pretty rough, but the atmosphere was still good. Very nice bartender. Good beer selection.

    Fun spot. We went early evening and caught the tail end of a smoking' blues duo and happy hour. Plenty of tap beers, homemade tables, funky art and a coloring book. We headed out to get something to eat but would go back.

    I started coming here after the Czar Bar closed down last fall. I admit, I'd never checked it out previously. It's a pretty comparable venue. The music is loud, they have live bands or DJs on the weekends. This is, of course, where for the past couple years, the alternative radio station The Buzz does their morning concerts (Kegs and Eggs). The drink specials are amazing. A shot of whiskey and a PBR for $5? Tank 7 for $3. It's a pretty standard bar with a very cool vibe. There's not much else to say that hasn't been said below. The service is fast. The music is good. The alcohol is cheap. There isn't any food.

    I'll be upfront. I love this East Crossroads bar/concert venue. Although I've never been to a show, as a neighborhood bar it excels. I only live a few blocks away and this is my go-to. I mean where else can you find $3 Tank 7s during Happy Hour (which lasts until 8pm)? Their beer selection is generally excellent - a lot of Mother's on tap. Oh, and you have to try their Bacon-infused Rye Whiskey if it's available. The Tank Room is comfortable, woody, and bespeckled with local-style art. Of course, the caribou head is the focal point. There's an indie rock/90s-era alternative vibe going on in the music being played overhead - fitting the mood seamlessly. Last but not least, the bartenders are some of the most genuine and good-humored in the area. I rarely have two-hour conversations with perfect strangers. This place gets me.

    The Tank room is a no-nonsense booze and music emporium and I love it so hard it hurts. There's been some definite momentum as of late in the East Crossroads, and The Tank Room is a stellar compliment to the neighborhood. A basic stage in front, a deceptively simple bar in the back, with a bilevel floor in between. Elemental in nature, there's not much decor beyond the slate walls and the sturdy hardwood tables. Instead, they fill up their space with quality drinks, talented musicians and a crowd that is pretty damn hip, indeed! Let's talk about the bar. So, it has a moose head and whiskey barrels, which are both cool yet understated. They have (I think) about a dozen taps, pouring beers ranging from AWESOME (Boulevard Imperial Stout comes to mind) to WTF WERE YOU THINKING? (whatever douchey hard cider with the commercials where they pelt bros with apples). But sit down for what I'm about to tell you.... WHISKEY ON TAP!!!!! Oh yes, it's true. We enjoyed shots of Bulleit Rye infused with bacon. The shots were a decent price, massive in size, and dang tasty! For entertainment, I was there on the night Brody Buster performed, and he just killed it! Harmonica driven blues rock? Yes please. Their entertainment calendar is pretty impressive, and they're looking to compliment next door's Green Lady Lounge, already one of my favorite spots in town. They're a bit all-over-the-place with genre, but that's fine by me. Personally, I think the space might be a touch stark when there's not a band on stage, but I don't know how often that'll happen. Plus, they were playing great music in between sets (think Arcade Fire and similar), so I trust that the people in charge know what they're doing. And I also trust that I'll be back, and often.

    I really like the Tank Room. My party of 5 arrived around 9:30 on a Saturday night and were able to snag the last table (and tables are limited!). Within an hour, the place was seriously packed and a 3 member Reggae group was jamming away. I was surprised at how quickly this place filled up, and the Green Lady next door was also full. A food truck parked in front of both establishments, and actually had customers. I felt like I was... in the city! I loved it! The music was good, the bartenders were cool, and prices were reasonable. I will definitely be back to the Tank Room!

    I LOVE this place! I was there on a cold Saturday night, but the place was hopping, with an awesome reggae cover band and super friendly bar tenders. The music was loud, but that is ok, since my group was able to grab table and sit close enough together to chat as well. The place was pretty busy, with no empty tables and tons of people standing around, but there was still enough room for a very small dance floor, right in front of the band. Combined with the music, very entertaining. The beer selection was decent, and they have several whiskeys /bourbons on tap. Yep, on tap. I highly recommend the bacon one. I am totally going back, and will maybe sample more of the delicious spirits on tap.

    I like Tank Room. It's small, but the layout maximizes their space better than similar-sized bars. They could spare a little room with that weird island on the way to the bar, but it's still not bad. Lots of good parking nearby without having to rely on those pricey lots.

    This one is going to focus around music again. Shocker. I went to Tank Room to attend Kegs and Eggs and, I must say, I really like this place. From a musical standpoint, the stage is right up front and the sound is great. Much better than other small venues I've been at around Kansas City. That's kudos number one. Being there at 6AM, I didn't really partake in many of the beverage options, but did notice they have quite the selection. They even serve some of the beers in mason jars. I like that quirk for some odd reason. The one thing I did not like was paying $7 for a draft of Santa Fe Java Stout. Yes, it's a great beer, but it shouldn't cost the same amount as a Tank 7. Shame on you, Tank Room. Other quirks I noticed were some infused whisky flavors (again 6AM, so I didn't give it a try). Overall, I need to go back to this place and give it a thorough test. But, for now, I approve.

    Great Happy Hour specials. Tank 7 for $3! Uh...YEAH! It's a bar only; no food. Great place to listen to live music in downtown KC.

    Went for happy hour (which goes until 8!) with a group of lady friends. Being GF, I could really only have the Angry Orchard on tap for $4.50. It was fine. Still, AO isn't my favorite cider. The whole place is pretty minimalist. They had a band coming in at 9 or 10 that night and that probably would have been fun. If you like beer, this is probably a great place, but as a GF peep, maybe not. Still a decent atmosphere though.

    Usually pretty good live music. The whiskys are good too.
