"This is a Jazz bar... that night we were there to see a new singer named Nya, look out for her, she was very good! I live in KC, all my life so my family visits the Blue Room at least once, twice a year! But since Covid not as much as before. They do not serve food, parking is on the street or nearby parking lots and they sell bar liquor/sodas only. The atmosphere is fun, and "jazz-y" so anyone would enjoy going there. Don't go hungry! Lol Good local musicians and sometimes world renowned musicians play there... the cover charge depends on who is playing that night, from free to $30 . I recommend the Blue Room ! Should have taken pictures that night but didn't unfortunately...you won't be disappointed if you go!"
"Great place. The service was awesome. The band was talented and interactive. Loved it."
"The music was incredible! Kansas City's First Family of Jazz, The James Ward Band featuring the amazingly gifted jazz flautist, Jazzy Jazz ♥ Holiday Jazz Hour!"
"We really enjoyed our time there at The American Jazz Museum particularly the Blue Room where they had some Live Jazz. It was great!! We were visiting from El Paso Texas. We were there for the Thursday Night Football game at Arrowhead but got to experience a lot of the nice places Kansas City has to offer."
"First time visiting The Blue Room for a show. This happened to be the 5 o'clock Friday night free jazz show. It was a real treat seeing (hearing) Lady D and her band! Great ambience, a wonderful mix of people in a really welcoming space. Had previously visited the museum, a "don't miss!" and was just as thrilled with this experience. Highly recommend!"
