Additional Information
"THE BEST LITTLE PARTY PLACE IN KANSAS"
"A hidden treasure" as quoted by the Manhattan Mercury. Black Jack Hills is almost hidden. Just off Hwy. 24 between Manhattan and Wamego, the banquet facility-entertainment venue is nestled in the Flint Hills that surround what was once the Fields of Fair Winery vineyards. Many patrons of the venue say the atmosphere is what draws them to Black Jack Hills.

The inside of Black Jack Hills is open and spacious with mammoth cottonwood bench tables resting upon the brick flooring. The planked walls are oak and cottonwood. The ceiling and sidewalls are dotten with remnants of domesticity.

People have said it reminds them of a Wyoming lodge plopped in the middle of Kansas. One almost expects to look out the large picture windows and stare into the shear face of the Rocky Mountains.

This heated/air-conditioned facility can be adapted to formal or informal settings with your decorations. The indoor area can seat 250+ offering full service bar, stage and dance floor. With your event being catered by Black Jack Hills which is known for having the "best darn down home cookin' in Rural America."
