St. Louis-based Imo’s Pizza to Open Third KC Location

Imo’s Pizza

St. Louis-style pizza lovers, rejoice! Imo’s Pizza will open a third KC metro location in the Northland.

  • Three’s Company: According to a report from the KCBJ, Imo’s has filed a tenant finish/remodel application for 8526 N. Jefferson St in the Metro North Crossing development in the Northland. This location will join two existing KC metro locations: 4200 Rainbow Blvd. in KCK and 111552 W. 135th St. in Overland Park.

  • STL Style: Imo’s was established in 1964, and quickly defined “St. Louis-style” pizza. Imo’s serves thin & crispy crust, square cut pies, and topped with gooey Provel® cheese, which is a smoky blend of cheddar, Swiss, and provolone.

There is no timeline on the opening of Imo’s, but the buildout is reported to cost $140,000.

Help Us Update our Kansas City Brewery Guide!

BKS Artisan Ales

Exactly two years ago (July 10th, 2023), we released one of our first-ever KC Daily guides: Kansas City Brewery Guide. Hand up, we have not updated it since. 🤦

So, were asking you for help! Fill out this short form and let us know which local breweries we should add. The only requirement is that they are local to the Kansas City metro and brew their own beer.

You can view our current (and sparse) brewery guide HERE.
