Description

Specialties

We are locally owned and operated featuring the best beer St. Louis and surrounding cities have to offer; six local craft beers on draft and an abundant variety of local, domestic, imports in bottles. As well as a large selection of liquor. Featuring locally owned Dan O’s Pizza and we now have pure cane sugar soda (used in all our mixed drinks or by the bottle in a variety of flavors) from Excel Bottling Company located in Breese, Illinois.

Our place is obscure and definitely not what you think it will be judging from its location. We promise you will enjoy your stay. The bartenders and guests are friendly and always welcoming to first-​timers.

Our crowd is an eclectic mix of artists, musicians, bikers, beer lovers, techies, business travelers, laborers, and all around good folks.

Non-​smoking (Vaping welcome). Outside patio. Free wifi. Pool table. Darts. Pinball.

Voted three years in a row for Best Neighborhood Bar in North County — Reader’s Choice Riverfront Times.

Nice bar. We were visiting from out of town and found this place close to the motel. The woodwork alone is worth a stop. good selection of local craft beers. Also a good selection of liquors for those who like mixed drinks. Owner is a nice guy, spoke with him a little bit. Worth a stop if you are passing through. pinball games and pool table.

Great place friendly staff. Here on business and thought I would find something not in the hotel bar. I knew I would like this place as soon as I sat down, ordered a local craft beer and immediately fell into a discussion about The Walking Dead. This place is heavy on character, do not let the exterior fool you. For my money I like a place where they treat you like a regular even when you are in from out of town.
Good beer, friendly barkeeps, and nice crowd.

Great craft beers, knowledgeable bartenders, friendly atmosphere and best of all… PINBALL (which is what we came for)! Came over the river from St. Charles and we will be back!

Pinball, Pool & now an old school video game machine!
This is our favorite bar, ever. For the beer lovers, you’ll be in heaven. There is always a crazy good assortment, a ton of local options, draft & bottles. In addition, they do an awesome beer league on Thursday nights. A different beer every week, stamps that equal a free beer.
All the bartenders & owners are amazing, friendly and spectacular. Drinks are never empty and always poured perfectly.
They make you feel like home and always know what you’re drinking, or are offering you something new & creative that they’ll know you’ll love.

Ok, now that’s I’ve been here twice, time for a review. Super friendly bartenders! Excellent beer and liquor selection, think local quality. The Dan O pizzas are REALLY good, for any pizza, not just for a bar pizza. And the local Excel pure cane sodas are also really good. If you’re in the area, check it out. You won’t be disappointed, especially if you like pool and pinball.

Great place! Killing some time waiting for a co-​worker on a flight. Great bar, local people. Much better than hanging at the airport. Good small selection of local micro brews to choose from. Highly recommend this place.

This is my «Cheers!» I love this bar and the people in it. The owners are great a long with the wonderfully friendly bar staff. They change their beers all the time and all their taps are local (not anheuser though). They have a beer league each Thursday where you can try a different beer from all over! They now have 4 great pinball machines, a pool table and dart board. AND IT’S NON-​SMOKING! If you do smoke they have a great back patio and fire pits!

Great atmosphere. Little small but everyone there was really cool. Had a lot of fun at this small little hole in the wall bar.

Found the bar on Unilocal when I was in St. Louis for a night and met a friend here. Immediately upon walking in I was greeted by the bartender, he was incredibly friendly. His knowledge of the beer they have and all the micro breweries in the area was awesome. If you are looking for great beer at great prices I would highly recommend this place. I will be back the next time I’m in the area again.

I stopped in while waiting for someone to land at STL. The owner is friendly — great venue. If I lived in STL, I’d be a regular.

Had a few hours to kill before a flight so I decided to check this place out. Awesome beer selection and Jimmy will definitely help steer you towards the right one. Constantly rotating taps depending on the season. Great music and vibe, I’ll def be stopping back in next time I fly in/​out of STL

This place is pretty awesome. My only gripes are that they are hard as all hell to find and that they still allow smoking. Other than that they have an amazing beer selection and soft pretzels with cheese!

Went here late on a Friday night for a drink and some nosh before heading to bed. The bartender was attentive, knew the selection of (good) beers that they had well, and was quite personable. The music selection was primarily 80s rock, loud enough to hear, but not so loud that you couldn’t easily carry on a conversation.
The food selection is limited to pizza and hot pretzels. My companion and I had a pizza, which certainly met our expectations.
The patio space out back is a nice addition, especially since they can get a fire going back there on colder days.
Overall, this was a good place to have a good beer, a snack, and a conversation.

Great bar with great music! It is cozy and dark, like a bar should be. The staff is always friendly and attentive. They have pool, darts and a patio out back. There seems to be an interesting beer selection (but beer is not really my thing).

The owner of this place is really nice. They are always passing out food here it seems. It’s pretty close to my house as well. If I was a little younger and less burnt out on the bar scene this would probably have become a regular hang out. The bartender was really funny too.
