Swagger Fine Spirits & Food closing on January 19

Next Sunday will be the last call for the five-year-old Swagger Fine Spirits & Food at 8431 Wornall, according to the employees working in the popular south Kansas City saloon. The bar and grill was opened by brothers Derek Boone and Dustin Craighead in 2008, although it has been operated, primarily, by Boone.

Bartender Jerry LaForce tells The Pitch that Swagger will continue to serve food and liquor for another week: “But we’ve been told it won’t stay open past next Sunday.”

The bar was featured on the Guy Fieri TV series, Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives in the summer of 2010.
