John's Big Deck

John's Big Deck, Rooftop bar and terrace in downtown Kansas City, United States.

John's Big Deck is a multi-story establishment with a restaurant, a private event space, and a large outdoor deck on the top floor. The rooftop terrace overlooks downtown's skyline and surrounding buildings.

The establishment opened in 1983 as the downtown area was beginning to transform and attract more visitors and businesses. It has since become part of the area's dining and entertainment landscape.

The place functions as a social gathering spot where visitors from across the city come together to connect in a relaxed setting. It reflects Kansas City's open character by bringing people of different backgrounds into a shared space.

The venue is open throughout the day and into the late evening hours, making it accessible for both early visitors and night owls. Multiple dining and drink options are available to suit different preferences and budgets.

The kitchen prepares dishes from scratch and serves seasonal specialties found nowhere else. The place is also one of the few downtown spots where you can eat and drink deep into the early morning hours.
