Shawnee's Bates City Bbq - Shawnee

Awesome KC Style BBQ!! Some Of The Best KC Has To Offer!!

Awesome ribs and fries. And of course, the boys are smokin' hot. They are so friendly, anything you need

On our way from Wisconsin to Tucson and came across Bates BBQ. What a treat. Good food and service. Loved it. Try it.

Great food and friendly staff. Love stepping inside with the jokes on the walls and seeing their license plates…Enjoy

How does this place have ANY positive reviews? Does this place know was KC BBQ is suppose to look and taste like? I had the burnt ends… which came out looking like cat food covered in nasty bbq sauce (to hide dry meat). Seriously....tiny flaky beef that looked like bbq beef from a crock pot. No smoke flavor. I ate 2 bites. Fries are good and homemade… slaw was fresh…tasted okay but kinda bland. I will stick with LCs burnt ends on the KC Mo side. Maybe the owner of this store should try L … – show
