The Riot Room
- What:
- Bar/Night Club
This scaled-down, cleaned-up spot at 4048 Broadway used to be the Hurricane, and is still a Westport rock-and-roll institution. Dimly lighted and loud, the Riot Room leads the the midtown music scene. Its claim to fame: bringing wasted back in style with a reverse happy hour at midnight. Call 816-442-8179 - Where:
