McFadden's Sports Saloon Reviews

My fiance and I went there for late night drinks and we get there and the waitress is asking us what we want and never handed a food or drink menu. Yet she was asking us for what we want to order and we had to finally ask for a menu . Then on the drink menu it said "You keep the GLASS." So when my fiance and I were done drinking our drink we left and as we were leaving the waitress said I couldnt keep the glass. So basically they lied, you CANT actually keep the glass. She said we can only keep plastic cups. If we couldnt keep the glass then they shouldn't write it on their menu in huge white letters "YOU CAN KEEP THE GLASS." Just saying. It's a lie and a scheme!

The DJ is horrible on weekend nights, but good food for lunch.

My friends and I were never served after trying to get the server's attention for 30 minutes. Go to the Dubliner, they are way better.

It was a fantastic experience. I took my girlfriend, and we both had a 40+ ounce of mixed drinks. The big drinks were actually reasonable and didn't break the bank. I do admit that the food was excellent. First time downtown in Kansas City not knowing what to expect, it was an excellent sports bar atmosphere, and the staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and enjoyable.

I won a happy hour from 11pm-2am and they closed almost an hour early. I also brought 8 people with me and I never got my gift card (not that I plan to go back anyway). There is not much to do inside the bar. No darts or pool tables.

Food not so good... ordered two Bloody marys, not the worst i have tasted but certainly not good..The tap beer, was flat...i mean PBR isn t the greatest but wow...Stella in bottle was warmish and flat...for the Power n Light district, would have expected much better....

Cool irish bar with lots of tvs a great place for an afternoon drink and some kc baseball.

Trivia was pretty good. Decent audio. Plenty to choose from to eat and drink. The Geeks Who Drink Quizmaster was very helpful.

Sat in a booth around 9:30/9:40 today (a slow Sunday). Waited and waited for out a waitress to serve us. We sat at a booth that hadn't been bussed so we tried to wave her over in case she didn't realize we hadn't been served. The lady never made eye contact and when we finally got her attention she bussed the table but never came back to serve us--even after more attempts at getting her attention. Finally at 10 we gave up and asked the bartender for menus--she told us the kitchen closed at 10. When we left they told us "thank you for coming" and we were literally never served.

I have had mixed experiences here. Some good, some not so good. It is a hot mess before Sprint Center events. But everything in P&L is the same at those times. I've been in on a Sunday to watch NFL football and asked for a game to be changed (Nobody was in there), and I got a lot of attitude from the bartender. I had to ask for the manager to get the game changed. I have also had some outstanding service there. Mixed bag.

Amazing place in the Power and Light District. Amazing food, excellent service, and so many tvs, it'll make your head spin. Had above and beyond service here with my wife and kids after a Sprint Center show. I will definitely be back.

Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the bartender was great. We did go during slow hours. We're not from the area and we asked for some food suggestions and he gave us a range of options with tid bits (if it was pricey, longer distance, if there are usually wait times, etc.). Both my boyfriend's phone and my own were dying and they had a charger we could use. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is, like many other reviewers mention, the prices were a bit high.

The food was way over priced. A group of 4 consisting of 2 kids and 2 adults for one meal and a drink each. The drinks were 2 sodas and 2 glasses of beer and the cost was $84.00. I would not recommend this place to take a family.

It's not exactly my style of bar because the music is very loud and it's quite crowded, but the first beer I bought came out of the tap completely flat and was more or less undrinkable. They did the right thing and refunded my money and made me a mixed drink for free that was good, though. If you like bars with more of a party atmosphere, you probably will like this place.

Service was great and our waitress was really nice. Drink specials for good. Food not so great. Stale chips and lukewarm dip. Guacamole was $2 but came in a teeny tiny dish. But then the waitress didn't charge us for it. So it's all good!

Always a great time. So much to do, alot of night life. Live bands during the summer

Chicken nachos were awesome! Don't order them alone they are HUGE!!!

Loud, good fish & chips, very nice wait staff, some customers were obnoxious, but hey it's a bar in the middle of a rap concert, what do you expect. Oh, decent Irish beer.

Great place to post up during sporting events to watch the games, enjoy great food and drinks!

Went here for Monday night football specials on beer and wings. Food was great and service was excellent.

Where to start... we were in KC for the college VB Championship and came here around 2pm on a Friday, so basically the place was half empty. It took a while to be noticed by the wait staff then 15 minutes to get the beer we ordered (which she proceeded to spill). 1 meal showed up, and we waited for the second while other food continued to be delivered around us. Waitress not to be found. Finally she stops over and notices we are missing half our food and apologizes. We wait another 10 minutes for it to come. They must have been in a hurry because it seemed like a whole cup of salt was on the fries. She didn't bother to ask if we wanted ketchup, which we had to get up and chase another waitress for. Thank god we weren't planning on paying with credit because she never came back after giving us the check. We might still be sitting there. Generally not impressed with the Power & Light District.

Service was excellent and the food was great. Everything came out in a timely manner. I would highly recommend going here for a date, party night or just to watch a good sporting game!

McFaddens is a fairly large venue with a large main bar and 2 smaller bars in the lower area. The food has always been good, appetizers, good selection of beer, good service and a lot of TV's to watch multiple games. The venue in Power and Light is directly across from the Sprint Center so it gets busy after concerts or events and for holidays. We have a good time everytime we go, it's a little loud at times but that is to be expected for a sports bar.

Your average sports bar. Tons of screens and a pleasant staff.

Not a place if you wanted an Irish pub experience. It is more of a club type of setting and have waited for almost an hour to receive any food ordered. Didn t even bother to ask what to drink. when the food came had nothing to eat with other then my fingers until requested utensils and demanded a drink. Food tasted like it was microwaved and not even warm what so ever. The DJ just kept the music so loud even though there was 10 people in the whole place you had to yell at each other to even order anything.

We had a delightful, efficient waitress. I had the turkey club and it was excellent! On the downside, the music was way too loud for me.

If the staff would get off their phone you can get a drink...
Do not order chili tots
Under cooked tots
Little chili n chz

Lively fun hang out for Big12 Tournament but will not go back. Many other fun places in Power and Light District not looking to completely gouge visitors going to the games. Ordered 4 tall draft beers and laid out a fifty; 50 cents change back. Done

Loved McFadden's! Had the best service and loved the atmosphere.

Always love coming here when in Kansas City. The power and light district is amazing. McFaddens is one of my favorite bars.

The beer selection seems a little small given the area and location? No Mojitos either?

We always have a great time at McFadden's! The bartenders are fast, friendly, & funny. The food is always great! They have autographs of Eric Hosmer from nights that he parties at McFadden's with other KC Royals players. Also, I've seen lots of KC Chiefs players parting at McFadden's too. I highly recommend for all and you never know who all you will see parting inside.

Horrible food. Fire the chef. Do a better job cleaning the tables.

It's an upscale sports bar. It is very overpriced for the quality. It only costs this much due to being in P&L. Also, when I went there prior to a College Basketball game at Sprint Center it was shoulder to shoulder throughout the establishment.

Definitely a fun hang out spot.. Music is good cuz they Mix it up for all generations

After taking about 30 minutes to get our drinks we decided not to order food because we could only imagine how long that would have taken

Oh my gosh the nachos wonderful. The drinks very good.

You can not dance in this place... it s ilegal .....base on what they said..... you are NOT ALLOW TO DANCE OK

Best time I've had watching a game in a long time. Great service with bar food done right.

Food isn't the best and while they have a lot of TVs I think there are better places to go that don't charge parking and are cleaner.

This is a great bar/restaurant and its directly across from the Sprint Center, making it the perfect place to grab a bite and some beers before the concert, and on 2/6/20 This place was hopping.

We are from our of town and came straight here after the Chiefs game because we heard many great things about it and our sever was HORRIBLE . We sit down and nobody greeted us, mind you they were not that busy, not busy enough to not see us Walk in , and when a sever finally came over she was rushed and gave me a bad vibe. I also asked to watch the Seahawks game and she never even bothered .. When we asked her what kinds of beer they had to offer she hesitantly mumbled and turned around to go grab a drink menu (making us feel like we were bothering her).. we than waited only a few minutes longer and decided to leave because we didn't feel welcomed there .... I have been a server for years and I know good customer service and that isn't what we got .. yes I know we all have our days but when pleasing people is your job you got to slap on a smile and do your job. When and if we ever come back to town I don't think we'll be returning .

Amazing venue to have drinks & food before a Sprint Center show. Very friendly staff, quick service and a all around great sports bar. Highly recommend.

Very nice place inside.. very spacey and had 3 different bars. Nice place. Didnt order food here. Reason for 3 stars is because their tap beer didnt taste right. Had a funny aftertaste and the bathroom was very messy.

Loved this place! You have to try the Reuben, it's one of the best I've ever had. I spent most of the day here for march madness opening weekend with some friends. The staff was great, fast, and friendly, and the atmosphere was top notch.

Food was good my biggest issue was the cost of a beer 14.00 for a large blue moon draft beer I asked server if that was,correct , she replied yes they raise the prices for the concert.

Great atmosphere, great music, watch the football game there. You need to get there super early to get a table during football games or events happening at KCPL district. Super packed.

you folks need to switch the bartender, literally, Then fire his pompas ass.

Shout out to this place for hosting cupids undie run for NF! Awesome bar, fair prices, and I had an absolute blast with friends and people I had never met before!

Took awhile for them to get the food out, but I got exactly what I ordered.

Service was incredible, really had so much fun here. The drinks and food both hit the spot.

Good food. Friendly staff. Great place to watch baseball.

Go here if you want to pay $10 for a 2-count of well liquor

I sat down and booed the Chiefs game with the waitress. It was fun.

Slow and inattentive wait staff during our lunch. Food was ok but was a long wait for basic food.

Had so fun much while vising this place. The staff is super nice and friendly. I would return & recommend it.

Horrible, I was treated very badly. I don't recommend it to anyone

The drinks were really good, but expensive. About $10 to $11 a drink. Hamburgers were average. Staff was really friendly and fast

It has good food, beautiful waitresses, and good entertainment

Called days in advance for reservations - was told they didn't take them and they weren't needed. Arrived at 5:30 p.m. - no seats to be had. Was told it might be hours until a table opened up due to a concert at the Sprint Center. Poor service. We left and went somewhere else to spend our money.

Attended a work event while visiting Kansas City and had a great time!

Friend won a party on a Friday night, went along for 1/2 priced drinks. DJ played fog horn during Adele songs along with other awful song choices. Not a quiet place. Stopped serving food WAY before closing time.
