“ Had the opportunity to view the kitchen of Pappos while speaking to the owner. I've been in numerous kitchens throughout Lee's Summit businesses and have to say this was one of the cleanest, most organized I've seen. Picked up a meat lovers pizza while there which tasted fantastic, with perfect crust. The owner was a very down to earth guy who takes pride in his business and ensures customer satisfaction. Will definitely return! ”
“ The pizza was delicious, but the standout was the service from our server, Mason. He was incredibly friendly and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. When an employee is that personable, it really makes a difference. We'll definitely be back! ”
“ Wow!! What a wonderful pizzeria! Great food, great beer, and great service make for a great time. Devin, the bartender, was great and was able to answer any questions we had. Also, let's not forget the amazing cookies they make. You have to try this place out!! ”
“ This is right next-door to the place where my wife gets her pedicures. I have never been here before, but she’s been in a couple of times and told me it was wonderful. I happened to be grabbing some supplies at the Ace Hardware nearby and saw Pappos was there and open for business. A large party had just exited and so I grabbed my umbrella after I parked my car and walked in the thunderstorm into the restaurant. At first, I thought it was pretty loud because of the concrete floor and the wooden tables, but as soon as the parents with the screaming baby left, it got much quieter. I was greeted at the bar by the general manager, Alex, who was covering one of her bartenders shifts tonight. She introduced herself immediately and asked my name. She was very kind and welcoming. I commented on the very impressive selection of beers they have. 32 taps on the wall and she is responsible for the selection. I can tell you, Alex has excellent taste! The beer list is voluminous and impressive. I don’t drink much beer any more, but I had two delicious ones. The house blonde ale is lovely. I didn’t have much room for a salad after a beer so I just went straight to an 8 inch pizza. My wife is currently out of the country and I didn’t want to have any leftovers and that was all I could eat. I nearly couldn’t finish that. I ordered a meat lovers pizza, and Alex was kind enough to swap out the bacon for mushrooms for me because I don’t enjoy bacon on pizzas, or much at all unless it’s cooked medium. Crispy bacon grosses me out. I think I’m a weirdo. At least that’s what my wife says about my bacon aversion. I got the hand tossed crust, and the pizza itself was very good! Probably top 5 in KC that I’ve had. Impressive for a chain, though I do not think there are any other locations in the metro. If you like pizza, you definitely need to give this place a shot. There were definitely some regular customers in there having a great time and we were all watching this sport called paddle ball on TV. Fascinating! Anyway, I will be headed back to Pappos for more pizza for sure and also at lunchtime for one of their tasty sandwiches. Five stars all the way! ”
“ Great pizza and homebrewed beers are the highlights of this cozy little spot, tucked away in the corner of a strip mall. May take you a little extra effort to find it but the time is definitely worth it. Huge menu of specialty pizzas, sandwiches and Italian dishes. Pizza was hot and fresh and the chocolate chip cookies, bakes while you enjoy your entrees, we're enough to bring me back. With 32 beers on tap, including eight of their own, this is a spot I definitely will be returning to sooner rather than later. ”
“ We went to Pappos at Ozarks and I have been wanting to get to one locally. Why you ask, it's because we all agreed that it was the best pizza we had at Ozarks. Anywho, the Lees Summit location had the same feel and atmosphere. Nice cozy feel with a ton of draft beers. So many so that I had to go with a flight. The pizza was absolutely delicious. Kids got the cheese pizza (ugh) and we got the Buffalo chicken pizza and they were both spot on. Tasted great. Done right. They have a ton of indoor and outdoor seating. The patio setup is pretty cool. Alli was a great waitress to top it all off. If you have a pizza hankering, this is the spot. ”
“ Outstanding! I tried this place for the first time a few days and I had to come back as soon as possible. Everything about this place exceeded my expectations. I wanted to try a new place on my way back home since I don't come this way much and it didn't disappoint. The pizza is fantastic. The ingredients are quality. The crust is light and crisp. The flavor is wonderful. The wings are exceptional as well. I love mango habanero and the sauce on these tasted fresh and actually made in house. You can taste real mango. The cookies we surprisingly great too. Fresh, meaty chocolate, soft but not too soft and topped with sea salt. On my second time here and sitting down on the inside while waiting for my pizza i was even more pleasantly surprised. The people that work here were so friendly and down to earth and just pleasant to be around. They also have plenty of screens to watch the game. This is definitely one of my new favorite spots. You should definitely try this place! ”
