As mentioned in a recent post, we did a quick drive down to Branson recently. On the way back home, we stopped in to Atlas9 in Kansas City (about half way home) to grab a bite to eat. Having the annual pass discount really helps.
Now that they have food in the Speakereasy, that has been where we have been eating. On our previous visit, they had added a new charcuterie plate, but it was unavailable during our visit. This time, they had it, and this is what it looks like:
It was far fancier than I expected, but fit well with the fanciness of the Speakereasy.
Unlike past visits, this one was very short. We walked in and went to the elevator. It existed into the Starbot room which connects to the Speakereasy. Other than the restroom, and a quick side mission to Film Storage, that is all we saw.
Changes since last October
…and even then, there were changes. In the lobby, we saw that the crane games that had been on the back wall had replaced a row of arcade games.
And where the crane games used to be was a popcorn chair. This may be one that was in the Concession Caverns – we did not make it there to see.
In the Speakereasy, we noticed they had a short extension counter with the credit card reader on it.
Perhaps this was for accessibility reasons.
They also had two standing tables in the room.
And then, on our way out, we noticed that the video booth they were using during the A9iversary event had been relocated. It was now set up to act as a photo booth, and took four color photos in sequence. Nifty.
It seems something changes every visit, and we wonder what else we might have missed due to not having any time to explore.
I did take a few photos (not very many) and have added them to the Atlas9 gallery:

Until next time..
