HelloKansasCity.com has named Kelly's as one of Kansas City's top 5 bars! Check out the article below.  

By: Christopher Lloyd

An irish family pub with a rich history dating back to 1947, Kelly's Westport Inn is a nostalgic bar with a healthy influx of young partiers on the weekends. Located in a 160 year-old historic landmark building, this bar has changed with the times while remaining a lovable throwback to Emerald Isle pubs of yore. In March 2010, the bar opened a roof patio overlooking Westport that quickly became a party destination -- arrive early if you want a rooftop spot. It's got ceiling fans for Kansas City's balmy summers and heat lamps come out when things turn cold.
