Third Place Lounge opened in January 2024 on Broadway Boulevard, in the former Coda music venue, as a socializing-first hangout where drinking is optional. Owner Amanda Blancarte, a Kansas City West Side native who worked at Crossroads bars Grinders, Nara, and The Cashew, built the room around inclusive, low-pressure gathering: midcentury chairs, upcycled couches, and rope swings hung from the ceiling. The bar runs a full cocktail program alongside a dedicated zero-ABV menu given equal billing, plus seven rotating non-alcoholic beers and coffee. The Pitch's "Drink This Now" column spotlighted its zero-proof cocktails, including the "No'groni, No Problems," the espresso-martini-style "Death Before Decaf," and the "First-time Crush" (non-alcoholic PBR and grapefruit syrup). Named for the sociological "third place" concept, it caters to a mix of sober, sober-curious, and drinking guests.
