Pop, fizz, and celebrate as Blanc Champagne Bar brings bubbly vibes to Kansas City
Raise your glasses, Kansas City—Blanc Champagne Bar is popping into town, ready to make a splash! Founded by Jordin Johnson, Blanc Champagne Bar, is located at 3835 Main Street in KCMO. This multi-level spot is set to bring a bubbly experience like no other, with a focus on champagne, community, and good times.
Johnson’s inspiration for Blanc came from a transformative trip to Italy, where she fell in love with the casual, everyday integration of wine and champagne into European life. “In Europe, champagne isn’t just for grand occasions,” Johnson explains. “It’s part of daily life, and I wanted to bring that spirit of celebration and gratitude to Kansas City.”
After leaving a decade-long corporate career and meticulously planning the concept, Johnson turned her dream into reality—creating a chic, community-centered space where guests can toast to both life’s big milestones and small joys.
Her mission is clear: to make champagne fun, accessible, and something that isn’t reserved just for weddings or promotions. “Champagne is the drink of celebration,” she shares. “We pop bottles when we buy a house, get a job, or celebrate love. Why not bring that into everyday life?”
To bring her vision to life, Johnson has assembled an impressive team, including Head Chef Chad Tilman, who has created a menu that pairs beautifully with the bubbles. Blanc offers an impressive selection of over 100 sparkling wines and champagnes from around the world. From iconic vintage Champagnes to more affordable and equally delicious options like Cava, Prosecco, and Crémant, there’s something for every palate and price point.
But what really sets Blanc apart is the inviting atmosphere. Whether you’re dressed to the nines for a date night or casually hopping off the nearby streetcar, the space is designed to feel elevated yet approachable.
The food? Think elevated comfort. With dishes like fried chicken paired with champagne, or caviar-topped warm pomme purée, every bite is designed to enhance the bubbly experience. There’s something for everyone, including gluten-free and vegetarian options. Everything is meant to be shared, mirroring the social nature of champagne itself.
In addition to its stylish main floor, Blanc boasts a stunning rooftop patio with sweeping city views. Perfect for a sunset toast or a glamorous evening under the stars, this space is sure to be one of the hottest spots in Midtown.
Blanc isn’t just a bar—it aims to be an experience. “We want people to come in, feel like VIPs, and leave in a better mood than when they arrived,” says Johnson. This vibe is echoed in the service philosophy—there’s no script for staff here. Everyone is encouraged to be themselves and help guests celebrate life’s small and big moments. Blanc will also host a range of community events and offer private event packages for those looking to celebrate in style.
And for those who want to enjoy bubbles at home, Blanc offers the exclusive Bubble Club, where members can access rare bottles and special events, curated by their in-house sommelier.
Blanc Champagne Bar officially opens to the public on October 23, in perfect timing with National Champagne Day. Whether you’re a seasoned champagne lover or new to the sparkling wine game, Blanc is poised to be Kansas City’s most exciting new spot to sip, share, and celebrate. Here’s to popping bottles in style!
