Chappell's
Restaurant and Sports Museum
About us
Chappell’s first opened in 1986 as a political and sports-themed bar & grill. It was an immediate success and it soon became evident that because of the excellent food, the emphasis needed to be changed from a bar & grill to an upscale casual family dining establishment.
Chappell's Restaurant & Sports Museum has since become one of Kansas City's most iconic restaurant establishments for its astounding display of sports memorabilia. People from all over the Midwest and as far as California, New York, and countries worldwide visit Chappell's because of the astounding collection of memorabilia on display in the restaurant.
'People visit Chappell's to see the sports memorabilia, but always come back for the food,' Jim Chappell often states.
One of the most frequently asked questions around Chappell's is how did Jim collect all of this "stuff"? A true passion for collecting sports artifacts that dates back to Jim's early childhood. Many items have also been donated to Chappell's throughout the years with it being identified more so as a museum rather than a sports bar
