Adults ages 21 and up are invited to get in touch with their inner child at Up-Down KC. You'll find more than 50 arcade games from the '80s and '90s, pinball machines, classic skee-ball alleys, and more. Check your couch cushions and rental car floor for quarters; each game costs 25 cents! After you beat your friends in a game of life-size jenga, you can head over to the bar and order from their list of over 50 different beers as well as '80s and '90s inspired cocktails.

Did you know that Kansas City famously ignored prohibition in the 1920's, leading to the rise of boozy bars across the downtown area? Yep, the city that is famous for jazz clubs built its repution back then as a place where corruption ruled; the local political boss, Tom Pendergast, set the tone by thumbing his nose at the Volstead Act.  Today, visitors and locals know that DTKS offers plenty of options for those seeking adult refreshment after sunset. From movie theaters to arcades, we've rounded up some of the most interactive venues to enjoy drinks and entertainment!
