Would You Eat at a Place called the FLEA?
Westport Flea Market 817 Westport Rd Kansas City MO 64111
This is the Side View of the Flea Market.. some people call it the "Flea". I call it LOVE. It’s my favorite place to get a cheeseburger. For those of you that have never been there, it’s part eatery-bar-pub type place and the other part is a Flea Market. (a chubby eBayer’s dream) I just wish the flea market part of it was open at other times beside Saturday and Sunday. I never seem to get down there on Saturday or Sunday. OH.. and it’s a cash only establishment..
Here’s my chef.. Look at those burgers… I’ve NEVER eaten anything else but a Flea Market Burger, Fries and Cheese Dip. NEVER… I have no idea if the other food is good. I only know that if you don’t have a cheeseburger there, I can not guarantee how happy the rest of your life will be.
The Flea Market has an interesting history: The infamous Kansas City serial killer Bob Berdella had a booth in the flea market part of the building. He was a real freak show.. (as serial killers are).. I would tell my mother I had a "Berdella Burger" just to freak her out.
I also bought a pair of 6" clear heel shoes there for a 1.00 and sold them for 30.00 on eBay!
I prefer to have some of their orange sauce (Thousand Island Dressing) and a tomato on my burger. How much does this bad boy cost? about 6.95.. but how can you put a price on L O V E ?
OOOH.. don’t forget their cheese sauce. So good with some fries..
Tuesday is 2 for 1 night on the burgers..
MMM… Heaven… I love this place so much, I’ve asked the man to take me there for Mother’s Day..
