Block & Company investment group acquires Chappell's Restaurant & Sports Museum in North Kansas City, MO

August 1, 2018

A local investment group, KC Chappell, LLC, headed by David M. Block and Alex Block of Block & Company, Inc., Realtors has recently acquired the iconic Chappell's Restaurant & Sports Museum in North Kansas City, Missouri. The 7,200 square foot building located at 323 Armour Road has been owned and operated by Jim Chappell for over 30 years and contains one of the nation's greatest collections of sports memorabilia with more than 10,000 items on display. "It was time to retire but I am still going to be around the restaurant connecting with customers," said Jim Chappell, "I am happy to have made a deal with these new operators and so pleased that their vision is to build on the established Chappell's tradition in the community."



Mr. Chappell will now hand over the reigns to his iconic restaurant and museum to Broseph's Restaurant Group (BRG). BRG, a California-based company formed by partners Justin Safier and Travis Lester in July 2010 has been brought in by Block & Company to operate Chappell's. BRG currently owns and operates three restaurants, two in the Los Angeles area and one in Mexico. Broseph's Restaurant Group (BRG) is represented by Phil Peck of Block & Company.



According to David M. Block, President of Block & Company, Inc., Realtors, "The menu will be upgraded and we are planning on interior and exterior building renovations. But the sports museum concept will remain and all the memorabilia will stay, we are hoping to expand the collection."

Block & Company, Inc., Realtors negotiated the sale transaction of the real estate and land and will be handling the property management of the Chappell's property.
