The Belfry Collective is Kansas City’s destination for award-winning dining, craft cocktails, whiskey, and private events. Founded by James Beard Award-winning chef Celina Tio, our four unique venues — The Belfry, Gerard’s Pool Hall, Ground Control, and Wolf Den — offer something for everyone, from intimate tastings to lively game nights.

Join Us for Our Next Tasting Event: Daisy Chain

Dishes inspired by other dishes from past tasting menus

Often when I'llm prepping a dish, I immediately start thinking of another way I might execute the idea, or perhaps a slight tweak. Well these inspired menus are the perfect outlet for those creations! Chef Steven will be doing two dishes, I'll be doing two dishes, and Darius will be making another sweet sensation! Curious to hear what inspired another iteration of a dish? Join us!

Our next Ground Control tasting event is on

October 3rd and 4th at 7PM

(Space open at 6:30 if you’d like

to get started with cocktails)

Reserve your space for this one of a kind event or our new theme night in Wolf Den!

Theme Nights Have Arrived at The Wolf Den!

Every Wednesday, we switch things up with a new theme night. Wolf Den’s mid-century vibe means we’re wine- and classic cocktail–focused, with small bites to match—plus a featured TV Dinner each night so you can stay focused on your game or book club chat.

We have many different “nooks” of varying sizes—if you know your group size, let us know so we can save you the perfect spot. Interested in hosting your own book club here? Shoot us a message and we’ll be happy to set aside a cozy area just for you.
