A Secret Door Will Take You To An Underground Restaurant In Missouri That Was Built In 1899

A good, homecooked meal very rarely fails to fill us up and leave us savoring every single bite. While we can find plenty of eateries that dish up homecooked meals all over the state, we probably won't find one as unique as this underground restaurant in Missouri. The delightful eatery features a scrumptious menu of home-cooked goodness and a one-of-a-kind ambiance.

Sat directly across from the Historic Truman Courthouse in Independence, Courthouse Exchange promises a one-of-a-kind dining experience.

Look for the staircase that leads to this charming restaurant that's tucked below street level.

Don't worry if you have difficulty navigating stairs. Drive to the back of the building, where you'll find parking and a level way to walk into the restaurant.

The restaurant, which dates back to 1899, offers ample seating and a cozy atmosphere. It might just become your new go-to favorite when you're craving burgers or an old-fashioned home-cooked meal.

Sit at one of the tables or grab a seat at the bar. Online ordering is also available if you want to take your meal with you.

During the warmer months, you can sit outdoors on the patio.

Courthouse Exchange is famous for its burgers, so if that's what you're craving...you've come to the right place.

Or go for a sandwich. Both burgers and sandwiches come with fries, sweet potato fries, or mac and cheese.

Courthouse Exchange earns glowing reviews for its food - including the fried chicken meal. Choose two of your favorite sides - green beans and coleslaw, for example - to pair with your fried chicken.

The kiddos have their own menu, brimming with such classics as burgers and chicken tenders.

Head over to the official website of Courthouse Exchange for days, hours, and a menu. Or, keep up with them on Facebook.
