✨ GRATITUDE. COMMUNITY. GROWTH. ✨
Today, we want to take a moment to say something that can never be said enough:
Thank you.

Thank you to every customer who walks through our doors day after day. Whether you join us for lunch, dinner, drinks, a game, live music, or simply to spend time with friends, you are the reason we do what we do.
Thank you to our incredible team—our servers, bartenders, cooks, security staff, and every member of the Blueline and KC Taco family. Your hard work, dedication, and commitment are what make this place special every single day.
We also want to thank everyone who stood beside us and supported us when we spoke up for our community and local businesses. We believed that creating more opportunities for businesses, employees, customers, and visitors would benefit everyone, and we are proud to see that vision becoming a reality.
One thing this journey has taught us is that speaking up and making our voices heard matters—and it has shown. When business owners, employees, customers, and community members come together with respect, passion, and a shared vision, meaningful change can happen. The growth we are seeing today, the opportunities being created, and the energy throughout our community are proof of that.
Today, we are building new relationships, welcoming people from all over the world, meeting new faces from our local community, and creating experiences that bring people together. What we’re witnessing is not just growth for one business—it is growth for our entire community.
As many know, our lunch hours continue to present challenges, as they do for many small businesses. However, the opportunity to operate later into the evening has allowed us to reach new customers, create additional jobs, increase revenue, and continue investing in the experience we provide. The positive impact extends far beyond our walls and contributes to the growth and vitality of our local economy.
We are grateful to the City of Kansas City and its leadership for listening to local business owners and for giving us the opportunity to be part of positive change while remaining committed to the safety and well-being of our community.
At Blueline, our mission has never been only about serving food and drinks. It has always been about creating connections, friendships, memories, and a place where everyone feels welcome. We take pride in sharing our food, our hospitality, our culture, and the atmosphere that makes Blueline unique.
Blueline has a heart of gold because it is built on passion, dedication, honesty, hard work, and genuine care for people.
For Steve and me, this journey has always been bigger than business. We believe in supporting our community, supporting local businesses, and creating opportunities that help everyone grow together. We believe that when one business succeeds, the entire community benefits.
Success is never achieved alone. It is built through loyal customers, dedicated employees, supportive leaders, fellow business owners, and a community willing to stand together.
We are incredibly thankful for every person who has been part of this journey. Every meal shared, every drink served, every event attended, every recommendation made, and every word of encouragement has helped shape who we are today.
❤️ Thank you for believing in us.
❤️ Thank you for supporting local businesses.
❤️ Thank you for supporting our team.
❤️ Thank you for supporting our community.
❤️ Thank you for being part of the Blueline family.
Because at the end of the day, this is about more than business.
It’s about people. It’s about community. It’s about creating opportunities. It’s about Kansas City.
And most importantly, it is proof that when people care enough to speak up and carry their voices forward, positive change is possible.
We are just getting started.
With gratitude,
Steve & Letty ❤️
