I love this little distillery north of the river. They offer vodka, a variety of gin, and lots of different whiskey. I don't get to the distillery too often but when I'm able to, I like to get a cocktail. They have a lot of different options featuring the different spirits. I'm a fan of their gin so I gravitate towards those. On my last visit I tried a gin old fashioned. It was light and summery. You can make it smoked and in the future I'd definitely try it especially during the fall. If cocktails aren't your thing, they also offer flights-whiskey, 5 spirits, or 7 spirits. Service is always friendly. The distillery is quite large and there's lots of seating. It's super open and they have large windows that allow you to see more of the distillery. They do offer tours, I haven't been on one but I'd be interested. Give them a look and buy a few bottles!

Went on a distillery tour earlier this month with a group of friends. The guide was extremely knowledgable and walked us through the distilling process and the company's history. There's a tasting after but you can also grab a drink to take on the tour - I tried the Spicy Builders Margarita which was actually made with gin and quite tasty. Overall, it was a fun way to spend a few hours with friends, and I'd recommend it if you're looking for something low-key to do.

Restless needs to be a "must visit" place for everyone in town and out of town! I love their back story and being a woman-owned business. The space is cool and not too big. I've been for a handful of events and they staff is always so nice and informative of what they're serving. We love their spirits and have totally bought bottles to have at home. I love this spot and it's so perfect being next to Chicken N' Pickle in NKC. If you haven't been to Restless, put it on your to-do list!

I'd read about this distillery and was impressed by the woman-owned aspect. The experience exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly good-natured. Friendly, helpful and proud of their place! We came with a group and everyone got something different. There were just a few snack options- keep that in mind if you're not a big drinker. I had the queen B and it was delicious! I moved on to the pink fizzy and it was also very refreshing. My date got a margarita- great, not too sweet! We'll be back for a tour sometime - and look forward to trying their other drinks. There is also a small retail space with bottles to go, shirts, etc.

We came here with another couple for a distillery tour to celebrate my husband's and our friend's birthdays. Before the tour, we ordered a few cocktails to take with us. The staff were all very friendly. The tour was interesting and the tour guide was knowledgeable. He answered every question we had. After the tour, we were given several generous tastings of their whiskey, vodka, and gin. I am not a big whiskey drinker, so I only tried a sip of the vodka and gin. My husband enjoyed all of the tastings. This is a fun place to go for a night out with friends or a date night!

Stopped here Saturday evening with some out of town friends while we bar hopped around the great little suburb of North Kansas City; or as it so wants to be referred to - River North. Restless Spirits is a great vibe with a loose yet sophisticated Irish air and really great people behind the bar. The four of us each had 2 drinks and sampled 5 different cocktails. I stuck with two whiskey "forward" drinks (thanks for building my vocabulary) A potent Old Fashioned; made from their Gullytown single malt and then a Stone Sour using their Stone Breaker blended American/Irish whiskey with citrus. Both delicious although next time I would reverse the order in which I consumed them. I'm eager to return for the tour sometime soon and learn more about their story and products and hopefully some new terminology to use in Yelp reviews moving "forward". A great place to start any NKC- sorry...River North cocktail crawl in an area that has many great options.

Stopped by restless spirits for some cocktails on a Saturday afternoon. The service was attentive and kind and answered all of our questions. I got the queen bee and old fashioned. Both were strong and tasty. I would definitely go back for another round!

Best distillery in KC and a wonderful representation of the city - great products, great people, great ownership. Stop for a visit and grab some bottles to take on your way home. Builders gin made me fall in love with gin, and the barrel aged whiskeys are complex sippers for a night on the patio.
