Tara P. Van Loenen, B&BC Marketing Director, defines the gastropub as "not solely a bar and not just a restaurant, the gastropub is a hybrid, offering a casual-meets-refined atmosphere that welcomes beer drinkers and wine snobs, open-minded eaters and foodies alike."
Gram & Dun is the first restaurant at 600 Ward Parkway for quite some time without '600' in the name (the space was formerly Park 600 and Baja 600), as Charles Ferruzza reported back in August when he talked to Alan Gaylin, one of the principals with Bread & Butter Concepts.
"We saw a need for a locally owned venue that would appeal to patrons between the ages of 35 and 65 looking for a culinary-driven restaurant that served cool comfort food," Gaylin told Ferruzza.
The menu reflects that with starters ranging from wild boar & bison meatballs to blue cheese English peas. The entrees are separated into sandwiches (beer-can chicken and a wild-boar sloppy joe) and plates (chicken-fried quail and Korean short ribs). The drink menu is dotted with craft beers (Founders Breakfast Stout and Bells Two Hearted Ale will be part of the 12 beers on tap) and specialty cocktails like the Ginger Rogers made with mint leaves, ginger syrup, gin and ginger ale.
Bread & Butter Concepts also operates BRGR and Urban Table, which opened this summer in the Corinth Square Shopping Center in Prairie Village. Gram & Dun is open from 11 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. daily. The full menu will be available until 10 p.m. (Sunday through Thursday) and 11 p.m. (Friday and Saturday). Happy-hour specials are from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. The number is 816-389-2900.
