Gates and Sons Bar-B-Q
Restaurants
| Gates BBQ is a Kansas City staple.
Recently celebrating their 60th anniversary, Gates has become
Kansas City's most popular BBQ Restaurant. George and
Arzelia Gates, their three children, Winnifred, Gwendolyn and
Ollie, the cook, Arthur Pinkard and a waitress opened the
restaurant in October 1946. The Gates family now owns nine
restaurants and manufacturers barbecue sauce sold in grocery and
specialty stores. Business head, Ollie Gates is active in the
community serving on numerous boards and investing in properties
to rebuild the community. Perhaps one of the most memorable
things about Gates BBQ Restaurants is the greeting that you
receive when you walk through the door. "HI MAY I HELP
YOU!!!"

Gates Bar-B-Q Restaurant
Official Website
In 1946 Arthur Pinkard - who was a cook for Perry - joined
with George Gates to form
Gates and Sons Bar-B-Q. The restaurant was initially in
the same neighborhood.
More molasses was added to the Gates barbecue sauce to make
it sweeter. Gates also expanded its footprint in a more
conventional way, with restaurants all displaying certain
trademarks -- red-roofed buildings, a recognizable logo (a
strutting man clad in tuxedo and top hat) and the customary
"Hi, May I Help You?" greeting belted out by its employees as
patrons enter.
Gates has opened restaurants throughout the Kansas City
metropolitan area.
