It only LOOKS expensive!
STILL only $2.00 to stay ($1.00 for students), and NO NIGHTLY FEE if this is your first visit to the club.

The Westport Flea Market, located at 817 Westport Rd., Kansas City, MO 64111, is a pretty cool, casual bar & grill near downtown Kansas City, Missouri. We play chess in one of their rooms. They give us food and drink specials! Did you know they've been rated best burger in KC since 1987? They also have more than 40 beers on tap.

Casual (non-tournament) chess nights are FUN!! Come see old and new friends! Give yourself some much needed stress relief!
