SO I am embarrassed to say I have NEVER tried Westport Flea market hamburger before. So now that I am in walking distance and tomorrow is supposed to be gorgeous. I wan to try them finally.

So everyone please tell me your favorite hamburger on the menu!!!

I cant wait for a good KC hamburger, warm weather and a beer.

It's a great hamburger, probably my favorite in town. The mini is probably enough for you -- it's still pretty big.

Just remember, it's cash only!

Great burgers, can’t go wrong with any of them! It was and probably still is a cash only place. Enjoy!

Best burger in town.
My fav is the "Flea"
And I load it with my fav toppings.
They get their meat from McGonigles, one of the top butchers in town.
And, they have a full service bar with maybe 2 dozen beer taps

Hold rw business discussions there on occasion. Only place other than rotating amongst hotel bars.

And for the westport/plaza area, easy road access, easy decent parking, and a discrete side entrance that can be used, etc.

And yes, they only accept the discrete non-traceable dead president trading coupons.
In my 30+ years in the KC area, I’ve never been there! Sounds like a lunchtime road trip...

Asked for a small amount of suet/fat to go with a piece of flank steak that calls for the flank steak to be wrapped around the pieces of flank steak. They went back and got a hunk of fat and threw it on the scale and wanted to charge flank steak prices for the fat...they used to give it to me. Doubt I will ever go back...

Yeah, good point. I’ll avoid the busy time.

Tuesdays they do two-for-one mini burgers with fries. It's a great deal.

Steve's meat market in Desoto.

Used to be in old town Lenexa in the 80s, sold out and worked for Mcgonigles for several years and then opened in Desoto. Excellent butcher.
