Plan a day out on the town with your galentines

Pick Your Kind of Galentine's Day 

Urban Egg A Day Time Eatery | Spend time catching up over a yummy brunch! I highly recommend the Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes and the Breakfast Tacos paired with either the Espresso Martini or a Maui Waui Mimosa | urbaneggeatery.com

The Babe Standard | Friends who shop together stay together! Design a new hat or charm necklace for each other. Maybe you want a new friendship bracelet built to last? You can also get fitted with some permanent jewelry during your visit. | thebabestandard.com

The Elms Hotel & Spa | Head an hour north to Excelsior Springs for the perfect day of rest and relaxation. Grab a day pass for their grotto, which is filled with amenities like saunas, a hot tub, and an exfoliation bar. You can also treat yourselves with one of their many services like a massage, facial, or manicure. | hyatt.com/en-US/hotel/missouri/the-elms-hotel-and-spa/mcidh?src=corp_lclb_gmb_seo_mcidh

The Primrose | This cocktail bar has a classy cozy feel to it, the perfect backdrop to girls’ night! During my visit, I really enjoyed the Dragon’s House cocktail. They also have non-alcoholic cocktails that are just as delicious and picture-worthy. | theprimrosemission.square.site/

Painting with a Twist | Bring in your favorite bottle of bubbly or whatever beverage you prefer and get to painting. Attend one of their in-studio events (they actually have a few girly Valentine’s themed ones coming up) or you can book a private party and host your favorite group of ladies. | paintingwithatwist.com/

I’m a gal in her 20s, born and raised in Kansas City and boppin’ around figuring out life! I started The Bop Around account because I had returned to Kansas City after college and rediscovered the city as an adult and found so many amazing spots. My favorite thing about sharing different places and events around Kansas City is the passion I see in these KC business owners. I love to explore our growing city, travel, and plenty of self-care. Oh, and I am personally on a mission to find the best ranch dressing the city has to offer!
