According to OpenTable, Shawnee’s Wandering Vine at The Castle was named a top 100 Brunch Restaurant in America in 2024.

  • Best of the Brunch: OpenTable scanned over 14 million diner reviews to narrow down the Top 100 Brunch Restaurant list. Wandering Vine at The Castle was the only restaurant named in both Kansas and Missouri for 2024.

  • Keep ‘em Coming: It’s been an award-winning year for Wandering Vine at The Castle, as they were also recognized as a Distinguished Restaurant of North America (DiRōNA) for 2024. If the awards don’t entice you, maybe the chance to dine in a historic stone castle built in 1907 will?
