We came by after the KU basketball game. Got to hang out with the college kids for a bit and got pizza and beers. Not many options to sit but it’s a college town bar so no need! Tons of people, great service and great food.
Was really surprised Ive never tried this place once I actually had a slice. Dough was superb, toppings fresh, and staff was amazing. I think people sleep on Wheel pizza cause the upstairs half gets most (all) of the attention. But NO MORE PEOPLE! I will shout from the rooftops!
Legendary KU haunt, a must-visit if you’re a first time visitor. The space, the feel, the style all exude what’s best about a campus icon.
I have been here plenty of times and never had a problem. However, tonight I came with a friend of asian origin who had never been to the “Triangle”. I tried to introduce him to all the bars. We waited for roughly 30 minutes until we got thru to the “Wheel.” The bouncer then quickly let me in and then denied my friend immediately saying his ID was fake. My friend is 3 years older then I am and was using a valid state issued ID. I then stated it was real and asked to speak to the manager but was met with people saying they wanted to fight me. This incident was extremely disrespectful and racist. I am disappointed with what this establishment has become.
Great college bar! Students and alumni are both regulars ! The inside is rustic with wagon wheels and flags for decor. There’s a few booths where you can sit. They also serve lunch and the veggie burger is great! Prices are fair. Make sure to bring a pen or sharpie to sign your name on the wall! Be careful when exiting the backstairs, they’re metal and sometimes get slick! (Photos are here on a Wednesday, so not the full crowd)
I love their pizza. There’s not that much to it. I am nitpicking but it could be a little cheaper per slice(3.00$ now), but people have to make a living. This pizza is a little bit similar to casy pizza. So if you don’t like greasy pizza, this is not the place for you.
Had the nicest time. Nephew and I both got the mighty Wang Burger and a bloody Mary and a beer. We got to meet the owner and congratulate him on 25 successful years. Never feel bad about having drinks in cans here because every night he lets a guy come and pick up all the empty cans and recycle them. We had a beautiful waitress with long blonde hair who looked like a princess but acted like a helpful nice person. It was the nicest outing we had had in a long time and we are so glad we chose KU's/Lawrence's one and only Wagon Wheel.
I love the wheel and have been a patron for many years. Tonight I came in and had the rudest,duchiest service I’ve ever received. The wheel does a good job of hiring but they didn’t do so with Tyler. He gave me the rudest attitude I’ve ever received at a bar, and I hope to never receive it again. So much for nice employees.

The Sandbar is one of those places that will always be iconic in Lawrence. Yes, every bar can be a lot of fun.. HOWEVER, Sandbar is an experience. It is a party every night.
They have fantastic drinks, with fun toys, and lights.
The music is loud! A
Come for the stiff drinks and great prices.
The good: generous pours on cocktails. Amazing prices. Other patrons seemed very social and nice, likely because of the two earlier sentences.
The meh: bartender seemed a bit unhelpful on understanding wh
