B.B.'s Lawnside BBQ runs as both a barbecue restaurant and a live music venue, with the two built to overlap rather than sit apart. Large garage doors connect the dining room to the stage and covered deck, so the band is visible and audible from inside as well as out. The deck itself functions as an extension of the venue, covered and heated for use beyond the warm months.
The format leans toward groups, with the deck in particular set up for larger parties gathered around the music rather than a quiet meal. Alongside dine-in service, the restaurant does catering for weddings, corporate events, and other gatherings.
Regulars in South KCMO keep coming back for the combination — solid barbecue, friendly service, and a live-music atmosphere that runs Tuesday through Sunday.
