50 Best Bars near East Saint Louis

“Great place for friends and good times..“

“Food was bomb AF, bartender was on point, DJ had great tunes, owner was super friendly, everyone just made me and my friend feel like we were home. Y'all made me feel l was back home in Philly. I'd definitely stop again next time I'm in town. Thank you for a great night.“

“Great atmosphere for a player to be able to relax and have a great time. The ladies to men ratio 3;1 the kitchen is open for appetizers while the music keeps you grooving with a fine mix of R&B Hip hop and Blues. The drinks are always happy hour prices. The whole decor and construction of the ultra-bar is a upscale scenario where as the price is not heavy on that wallet. Perfect balance the owner has pulled off. I highly recommend it. Im on my way back to take photos.“

“I really liked it!!! Lots of good food and a great atmosphere!!😁🤩☺️🤩😁“

“A little too small for me, but I always still find myself going there ... ? The food has been famous for years, if you are down for a challenge, go there and order the big mama burger , it is the most massive thing that I have ever encountered, and it's always good! The atmosphere around the bar side , is always a dope vibe, if you are looking for a nostalgic good time, I suggest you go and place a visit.“

“Food was excellent, service was great! Our bartender was awesome!“

“The espresso martini flight is AH-mazing!“

“Great drinks. Sting so worth the price“

“Pizza! Kind of pricey about $7/slice with the cash discount. It’s good, not great but yknow.

Been here a couple times, 10 cent token Thursday is bomb. Drinks are eh. I don’t drink a whole lot.

The games, they’re cheap they’re fun. Some are broken. Quite a few are out of order. Many never heard of. But again a fun space to burn some time“

“A cool little dive bar with pinball machines. On a Sunday night they seem to have some league whereby people play them all night so normal patrons can’t use them. It’s a pretty cool place though, and if you can find a night where you can play pinball or just listen to the jukebox, I’d definitely recommend it. Tiny chef is excellent also and they sell food at a window inside the bar.“

“Had some excellent beer and the atmosphere was great!!!“

“a great place for friends to game, professional team building, you name it. loved it there. the art deco interior is beautiful.“

“This is without a doubt the best food in St. Louis. The value you get for your money is unparalleled as they hand prep everything. No short cuts! The staff is very friendly. The location is fun because it's a pinball bar so you can play pinball or get drinks while you wait. The food comes fast. They always have vegan variants on everything so it's a great spot to go for carnivores, omnivores, and all the veggiesauruses out there. The jukebox is all punk rock. I cannot recommend this place enough. Definitely try everything on the menu but the specials are always the best thing there. My fav specials are anything with Tteokbokki, Garlic Chillicrisp Mandu, and Kimchi Pancakes. Last night I ate a "Korean Crunchwrap" and each bite felt like God telling me I was his most cherished creation. I told my friend about this place a few years back for a first date recommendation and now he's engaged. Coincidence? Definitely eat here!“

“Found this place through Pub Pass and glad we did! Food and service very good. Originally opened in late 1800s and is still owned by the Beffa family, which I find very cool. And it’s nice that you can make a reservation.“

“Great atmosphere and service. They have a limited but diverse beer and beverage selection. The cocktails are made with attention. And if you're hungry (or even if you aren't), the food is not too be missed. Creative top notch selection of bay snacks and sandwiches. It's very laid back with live music almost every night and lots of recreational fun - pool, darts, games, etc. And then they also have a comfortable outdoor patio in the back, where you can bring your dog.“

“Great little place with a great atmosphere.“

“Great wine, place to lounge and relax with friends . Best bartender and server“

“Fantastic vibe. Welcoming cozy atmosphere. Very much a place where you can let your hair down and be yourself. It has a separate area that is a diner & art place where you can buy local artwork that is phenomenal, as well get your tarot read. I cannot wait to go back. Very awesome! 100\100!“

“Uniquely decorated inside, and it's beautiful. Outside patio is awesome, loved the music, We had amazing service as well♥️ and great food!“

“As a person with Celiac visiting your town I felt so welcome and safe- and it was a huge treat to eat an entire plate of yummy fried goodness that was safely prepared for someone like me. But the awesomeness didn’t stop there- the friendly bartender shared more Celiac safe local hotspots with us as well!“

“Over the past three years I have frequented this bar, and I have to say it’s one of the hidden gems of our city. Stan’s is a slice of south city and has cemented itself as an iconic establishment. No two nights are the same, but you feel at home when you walk through the door. Love this place. The staff are top shelf.“

“My second visit and Julie & Steve were awesome….had drinks ready for us with a smile and took great care of us while there, I would highly recommend for a Friday night fun outing, Fun Bar!!“

“I knew the owners of this place. Rose and Tony. My grandma took me down there when I was two. She ran a run down apt complex right next to there. I can’t believe it is still there. Rose and Tony would come to my house for holidays. I will be visiting there soon. It was a nice little dive bar the last time I was there. I worked at the west and cafe. I think rose and Tony were still alive at that point. Like 30 years ago. Love them and I loved this little bar.“

“Whether you partake in social drinks, or only choose to be served a NA beverage, you should ABSOLUTELY drop in and enjoy this fabulous establishment!

Good vibes, great prices, and even greater types of folks who put on nothing but a warm welcome and hospitable environment for any and all who may be searching for such things!

“nice little tavern. great place to have a beer or two and even better place to eat at.“

“I’ve been coming to grizzly bear for years with friends and family. I love the atmosphere inside and outside. The historical building is absolutely gorgeous. Marie was mine and my sisters bartender and she was so sweet and attentive. Absolutely love her! 10/10 definitely recommend. The wings are delicious and I love playing darts in the front room. Never a dull moment at the grizzly bear.“

“All around great evening. Beers world class and food was excellent.“
