brewery Emperial -

We get asked about our name sometimes...

There are several layers to what we decided to call ourselves;

In the history of Kansas City, there were several breweries of note. The shell of a former great one worth remembering still sits along I-35 about 3 miles from where our location is... The Imperial Brewery building stands as a reminder of the days when bigger meant better. From the late 19th century until prohibition, Imperial Brewery had a foothold in Kansas City: brewery Emperial is a nod to the noble Kansas City brewing tradition.  

In addition to that homage, bE is named in the more European tradition of "brewery" first - this represents our intention to keep beers our main focus, we will serve Great bEer, that's what we want to do, first & foremost.  

Emperial: A combination of two words-

Empirical: as in     -   that's a fact, Jack!  

Imperial:   -    meaning majestic; of a demanding quality; worthy of royalty (Go Royals!); domineering 

  soooooo......    

Emperial  [em-peer-ee-uhl]  adj.     It's a fact, our food and beer is high quality, worthy of royalty and         you will bE treated as such.

Kansas City's Top 11 New Restaurants 2017

Where to eat now in Kansas City

 There’s so much to like about Brewery Emperial. The Crossroads brewery-restaurant is the brainchild of a group of longtime friends, who also happen to have substantial industry resumes: Keith Thompson, a former brewmaster at McCoy’s Public House, and his wife Julie; Ted Habiger, chef-owner at Room 39; and Rich Kasyjanski, a former bartender at McCoy’s. Brewery Emperial’s vibe is both kitschy and fun, with a great wood-fired oven in full view of the dining room and a beer garden that more than doubles the restaurant’s capacity. The beer alone is worth a visit: the Biscuit Ale blends an old-school English ESB with American Pale Ale, and the house Tripel is rich and satisfying. When it comes to grub, the menu is wide-ranging and approachable. Habiger has upgraded traditional pub food, and you can trust that kitchen ingredients are sourced as locally as possible: much like Room 39, Brewery Emperial is committed to supporting local farms and economy. Not only can you feel good about dining at this joint, your tummy will thank you.

   Must-try dishes: Duck confit Scotch egg, wood-fired half chicken, rabbit molé

Brewery Emperial is tucked into the Crossroads District on 18th and Oak. A mix of industrial and rustic decor, it has a warm inviting feel. With the open kitchen and hearth, you can sit and watch your food be prepared. Owners Keith Thompson, Room 39’s Ted Habiger, Richard Kasyjanski & Julie Thompson have put their all into this small but amazing space. They have 6 beers; Milk Stout, Porter, Biscuit, Pilsner, Kolsch & IPA, along with a full bar. It should also be noted that they do have food, while I didn’t try any, the menu looked delicious!
