⛲️ Single or Double?

Single or Double?: Town Topic has called Kansas City home since 1937, when Claude Sparks started selling hamburgers for $0.05 at 2442 Broadway. The tiny diner has stood the test of time, with two Crossroads locations still open today: 2021 Broadway (24/7) and 1900 Baltimore Ave.

American History: Huckberry’s Journal offers guides to lifestyle content, food & drink, adventures, and wellness from across the globe. Although they mention that Town Topic has three locations when it actually has only two (the Mission location closed in 2020), it’s still fun to see an iconic piece of KC history named among the country’s best diners.

Bring the Heat: Rather than a one-temperature-fits-all approach, sessions are customized by pre-setting heat levels, red light therapy, and chromotherapy lighting to align with individual wellness goals—from pain relief and recovery to deep relaxation and mental clarity.

Let Me See Your Halo: Perspire guests leave feeling lighter, calmer, and deeply restored, often describing the experience as a full-body reset rather than just a sweat. The studio is also introducing Halo Therapy, a new add-on designed to support respiratory wellness and enhance overall relaxation.

Leawood-er: Brooksider will open at 5001 Town Center Drive in the former Hereford House space, which closed in 2024. The restaurant & bar has called Brookside home for 40 years, but will now expand operations to Kansas. It will serve the same food and drink as the original location.

We Like Sports: According to father-son owners Chuck and Jack Naylor, they are in the process of gutting the building. They will replace the steakhouse vibe with a sports bar vibe, with an event space upstairs. The menu features classic American fare like wings, pizza, sandwiches, burgers, draft beer, and cocktails.
