Lilico’s Taverna recently opened in the Crossroads, but the bar was a longtime passion project for owner Shawn McClenny. Previously owning One Block South in Overland Park, McClenny underwent a cancer battle two years ago. At the time, doctors estimated he had six months to live. He promised himself that he’d open Lilico’s if he went into remission. And here he is now, with alt-rock playing in the newly opened, colorful space formerly home to The Pairing wine grocer. “It’s just a casual Spanish café,” McClenny previously told The Star. “No reservations, it’s not upscale … if there’s an open table, you come in and have happy hour.” Read more on this new Crossroads bar at the link above. #KansasCity #KansasCityLocal #KansasCityBars #Entertainment #KansasCityFood
