38 Best Cocktail Bars near Des Peres

“My boyfriend and I ate here before our concert. The food was so good, and I’d never had coconut rice before going here, I absolutely loved it. Our server was so sweet, our drinks were never empty and she took great care of us. If I’m ever in the area again, I’d definitely come back here ☺️“

“My wife and I went out for a date night and had the best time at 360. Really cool atmosphere and vibe. We had Phil as our bartender who was excellent really made the experience fun for us. He was able to make us standard cocktails off the menu as well as a custom cocktail for my wife based off her requests. He was attentive when needed without being in the way. The burger we had was really good as well. If you go to 360 ask for Phil as your bartender 10/10“

“It is small, all the chairs are bar height and so are the tables. There was no place for us to sit in front of the band so we had to sit off to the side at the bar. Not really an issue for us but it was not very comfortable. It was quite Smoky and they left the doors closed. I believe it would have been better to leave the door open so some of the smoke could filter out. The owner was also the bartender and I like her a lot! If you are a smoker this would probably be a great place for you. If you don't mind sitting on bar height stools then this is the place for you. The bathrooms are extremely tiny after you get into the stall... So it's not big girlfriend friendly.
I just don't think this was the place for us but by the amount of people that were there it is definitely the place for a lot of other people!
I definitely think that you should go here at least once ?“

“Always a fun place to go to have a relaxing time!!“

“friendly. neighborhood bar vibe. a place where you can drink and think or laugh and talk. oh, you can smoke in here! small stage for karaoke/live music. no darts or pool table but there is golden tee! smokers can be free here (they have a cig machine.) super friendly service. 5/5 will be coming back here for sure“

“This little dive bar is so adorable. There were a couple of pups there which i loved. But im not sure if dogs are allowed so they might have been service dogs. The bartender was very nice and i even got "gonged" for being a first timer. It sucks they dont serve food. But the regulars there were very nice and welcoming. There is a touch tunes juke box available. Only down side is that there is smoking allowed inside. But i will definitely be back because it was a great experience.“

“Pretty nasty hole in the wall. Thank God it's shut down.“

“I got lucky and nabbed a last minute reservation for my birthday. This is truly my favorite restaurant! The food as always was exceptional. The only thing that was lacking was our waitress seemed a little put off being there. She was timely and attentive, but really not very friendly. This has not been the case on any other visit to your restaurant.“

“Stuffed squash blossom, delicious!! Did not get the margarita had a different cheese pizza with garlic can’t remember the name. It was great except 2 slices had no cheese. Will definitely be back but need more cheese!!“

“10/10 highly recommend The food, customer service was great! Enjoyed every moment“

“It was a rare out of town date night for us and we chose Olive and Oak for a couple reasons. They were open late on Sunday and the menu looked amazing. From start to finish, this was a wonderful dining experience. The NA mocktails were amazing. The atmosphere is stunning. We tried several different things on the menu and were not disappointed by any of them. Our server, Jordan, was fantastic. My boyfriend is a restaurant owner/chef in Columbia and to watch him truly enjoy every bit of that meal made my heart happy as well. We will absolutely be back. Many times:)“

“Had this on the want to go list for some time. Finally made it.
Neat little restaurant that’s a bit of a hidden gem.
Small location. Quiet with a great seasonal menu. Wait staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable of the menu.
We ordered wine and entrees. The serving size was appropriate and not too much.
We asked for a special dessert. The waitress worked with the kitchen to accommodate our request. It was wonderful. (See pics for ice cream. Caramel and scotch)
Would definitely recommend!!!“

“If you’re looking for a great cafe in Clayton, for a girls get together or birthday gathering or just want a night out for dinner. This restaurant was fabulous. The foods were delicious and the cocktails were great as well. Even the coffees they offer are amazing. The waitresses and waiters are always cheerful and on top of their presence. We always look forward to coming here. They never disappoint. Can’t wait for the music series to open back up come fall.“

“Last night’s visit to Farmhaus for my birthday celebration was truly exceptional. From the moment we stepped into this delightful farm-to-table establishment, we were enveloped in an ambiance of enticing aromas, cozy warmth, and genuine authenticity. The food, a harmonious blend of flavors and freshness, left us utterly speechless. Opting to share our selections among the three of us, each dish we sampled proved to be a culinary masterpiece. It was evident with each plate’s arrival that they were crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a dedication to using only the finest ingredients. From the irresistible appetizers to the delectable entrees and divine desserts, every bite was sheer perfection. We found it impossible to choose a favorite, as each dish offered a sublime combination of simplicity and flavor. The service was equally impressive, with the staff effortlessly balancing fine dining attentiveness with a laid-back charm. The impeccable timing of each dish’s delivery, coupled with the staff’s friendly yet professional demeanor, made us feel genuinely cherished and attended to throughout the evening. If I had to highlight one dish that stole the spotlight, it would undoubtedly be the wahoo fish with asparagus cream sauce. Caught fresh by the chef himself just days before, it stands as a true testament to Farmhaus’s unwavering commitment to sourcing the freshest ingredients. Truly, each dish we enjoyed was a culinary revelation, from the irresistible beef carpaccio with its luscious ancho spiced whipped cream to the rich and savory osso bucco, and the remarkably tender and flavorful beef skewers. And let’s not forget the delicately sweet strawberry tarte, a perfect ending to an exquisite meal. As a Taurus foodie who savors the nuances of fine flavors and a welcoming ambiance, I can wholeheartedly attest that Farmhaus has secured a permanent place in my heart. I hope to make dinner at Farmhaus an annual birthday tradition for many years to come!“

“We had our company holiday party here and they did an amazing job. the ambience was PERFECT, food was amazing, drinks were awesome and the staff was delightful. The evening was a huge hit with everyone, I'm certain many of us will be back for a dinner or group event, can't go wrong.“

“Always a friendly staff, always friendly customers… it is my new favorite bar thanks to the HUGE improvements the new owners have made!“

“The atmosphere is amazing, and the flavor of the food was outstanding! My only complaint is there were too many yummy looking things to choose from, and I didn't have enough money to order the whole menu. 😭❤️😂“

“Very nice place, great staff.“

“What a wonderful end to our day. fast friendly clean and the food was AMAZING... not to mention the drinks, stout and made right. 10/10 Love this spot.“

“I drove down to the Boind’ry last night ( June 10, 2022 ) for drinks and dinner and a great time because it’s not only an after work businessman v bar but a mix of wealthy and not so wealthy clientele and sadly it was closed with 4 or 5 guys sitting in the bar talking who I am assuming we’re the owners.Come on guys do NOT shut Boundry down forever because I can tell you better that anyone what made your restaurant / bar the “it spot” for so many years and standing room only most nights in the bar….it was the super cool bartenders like Bruce doing magic tricks and all the other cool bartenders and attractive wait staff that poured great drinks and bartenders were all very entertaining!A bartender can either make or break a bar environment!Any problems of lost customers can be directly attributed to losing colorful charismatic bartenders so hire some great bartenders and open again and word will spread like wildfire and the line of crowds will be down the block again waiting to get in!Some restaurants have free hors d’oeuvres or shrimp or taco bar but none of that matters! What does matter is your bartenders!Years ago at TGI Friday on Ellison Place they had the best bartenders in town doing juggling tricks with bottles the bartenders nickname was Psycho! LolWonderful memories … same for Boundry!So stop obsessing over the menu and get the best bartenders and friendliest and funny and attractive bartenders possible and the Biundry will be the now “it spot” again for another 20 years!“

If your looking for a great enviourment with some tasty eats ide recommend dropping by!!“

“My husband and I came here for our anniversary. I made reservations online and in the comments added that we would be celebrating our anniversary. The restaurant went above and beyond with an anniversary card at the table to sparklers in our dessert! It was so special, a dinner to really remember! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great! We will be back!“

“An FYI for St Louis area friends. We had brunch at Eclipse (Moonrise Hotel) and the food prep was excellent! It's a shame that we were the first people they had today; they opened at 9am and we arrived at noon. 😬 Give them a try!“

“Had a great experience from beginning to end. Cocktails were a twist on classics and were fun and delicious. We tried the crab cakes and to my delight they were not all filler. The surf and turf frankfurter was awesome as well as the salmon. I didn't try the steak but my friend said it was delicious. Service was very friendly and had great suggestions. Will definitely be back“

“We had my niece’s 25th birthday here and I was a fabulous party. We asked for Becky to serve us which she always does with exuberant smiles and attention. Matt, Satchmo’s owner, was here and mingled with us like any bar/restaurant should. As a chef, this tells me volumes of how he runs his establishment. I religiously order the pork green chili(which is phenomenal) and the fish and chips were to die for, exactly how I like it. This place is the quintessential neighborhood bar!“

“One of the best happy hour menus in town. Highly recommend.“

“Thank you so much for making our first experience at Red Robin a great one Our son has some food allergies and you all made it easy for him to have a great meal!!! Thank you all again!!!“

“When I walked in, I realized the place was packed, but we were hoping the wait wasn't too long, they quoted 45 minutes, which was a little too long for us. There was 5 of us and we decided to sit at the bar. And I'm sure glad we did. We had a bartender, I forgot her name, but she had purple hair, she was the absolute best. Not only did she make amazing drinks, she made sure our food came out right and hot. She also entertained us the whole time we were there, by engaging in conversations. You don't see that very much these days. If there was a word better than perfect, that's how I would describe it. I'll definitely be sitting at the bar more often.“
