Throwback KC

"This place has so many reviews about how they put their hands on ppl. It’s true. Do not risk coming here. I have seen them pick up grown men and throw literally THROWN them on the ground outside. I told a bouncer to leave me alone and he wouldn’t so I told him to BACK OFF and he took it as some threat or something and tried grabbing me. I told him to stop and I will leave. Then he kept trying to grab me. No I wasn’t drunk and I had just got there. He left multiple bruises on my arm and the police said there wasn’t anything they could do. This place is disgusting and they hire disgusting disrespectful people. Please stop coming here!"

"This place has been my "go-to" when I first started exploring KC as I first moved to Kansas City, that was in 2019. It is now 2022, I do not have to constantly go there for the staff to recognize me, they will listen to you when it comes to ordering drinks, music requests, and my favorite NYE moment was at Throwback. Don't come early, don't come late! The best time to enjoy this place is 10pm-1am in my opinion. The staff does not throw you out, they make sure you have somewhere to go even though that should never be a concern for yourself. Go there if you'd like to have a fun, accepting, cool, and nonjudgemental environment in your corner!"

"Shooters were fun? Staff was nice! Just didn’t know any music. It’s not really a throw back. It’s kinda hipster? Or as my boyfriend said “new school?,” he wanted to leave ASAP! Everything else was perfect though! Wonderful staff! Cool setup. Fun lights! Cheap drinks! Karaoke is really fun to watch! It’s just this place is called throw back so if it weren’t for the music I’d rate it higher. We paid a cover fee on a Wednesday so in the very least I just wish the music could’ve been better we won’t be back any time soon :,) because we are from out of town haha. I would give higher if music was better because it is actually pretty cool looking!!"

"Do not go here if you want music older than 2020 we went waited almost 2 hours and they played stuff I have never heard before.... literally wasted our night I’m so bummed sweet bartenders sweet staff. But I did not know a single song! They don’t even take requests here! Everyone there kept leaving and coming back. People would try to dance but they weren’t playing anything you could dance to. Lots of bars with good music around town! Cool setup terrible music. Music is from 2020 maybe their personal mix? I have never heard a single song in my entire life. Seriously I would’ve been happy with 2000-2010. It’s called throw back but this ain’t it."
