Best Day Brewing in Kansas City, MO

The Campground is an intimate aperitivo cocktail bar and restaurant in Kansas City's Historic West Bottoms, opened December 3, 2018 in the former Genessee Royale Bistro space. It grew from a 2012 backyard cocktail-party hangout into a brick-and-mortar known for woodsy, foraged-leaning craft cocktails, a natural-wine list, and seasonal small plates. Its zero-proof program is genuine and built into the printed menu: a dedicated "N/A Options" section mirrors the bar's spirit-forward style. The non-alcoholic Gimlet pairs an N/A blood-orange aperitif with wild mint, white sage, and lemon; the N/A Spritz layers that aperitif with non-alcoholic sparkling Pinot Noir and soda; and the N/A Margarita and Paloma are built on Strongwater (Denver) zero-proof spirits. Best Day Brewing NA lager, Topo Lupo hop water, and Casamara Club soda round out the lineup. The Campground was a 2024 James Beard Award semifinalist.
