A Wild West Bottoms Saloon
-
Description
-
Opening in September 2009, the R Bar is a modern saloon "inspired" by the numerous saloons that once occupied the West Bottoms. Owner Joy Jacobs discovered a large, lighted "R" at a local architectural salvage shop that once appeared on the exterior of the Rexall Drug building. She said, "The letter 'R' was just so unique that I couldn't pass it by . . . It spoke of history and paid homage to the tradition of the American Royal that made Kansas City and the West Bottoms so famous." The R Bar is in the building that was first a stockyard bank and later Sutera's Italian Restaurant.
