Wichita

Wichita, Kansas's largest city and long known as the 'Air Capital of the World' for its aircraft manufacturing history (Cessna, Beechcraft, and Learjet all got their start here), has a bar scene to match its size - BarFinder lists 235 venues, led by sports bars and classic bars with a real craft brewery and cocktail bar presence behind them. Downtown's Old Town district anchors much of the nightlife, with spots like The Brass Taproom and Central Standard Brewing alongside longtime favorites like Harry's Uptown and Mulligan's Pub. From brewery taprooms to neighborhood sports bars, Wichita's scene covers a lot of ground for a Midwest city its size.
