50 Best Bars near Earth City

“I came to the area for business and ate here twice at the restaurant for lunch and happy hour. The restaurant was recently renovated and has a very cool modern look and feel. It was a really comfortable place to entertain my business guests for a quick and lunch and then again during early afternoon the next day for a huddle. The food was fresh and very tasty. There was classic fare and then some fun specials. I really liked the Firecracker Shrimp. There were also some good vegetarian options, a really nice stir fry and a stuffed Portabella dish. It wasn't too busy when I was there, everything came out pretty quick, less then ten minutes and warm and well presented. I noticed there were quite a few draft and craft beers on tap at the bar. I didn't get to try any this time, but there was some interesting beers I will try next time I am in town. I would definitely recommend for lunch, quick, tasty and good variety without spending too much. I will try dinner next time I come to town.“

“This place is so good. Relaxing atmosphere, great service, and the drinks are to die for. My husband and I aren’t big drinkers but we will be back for sure.“

“Although it’s true that I was at the Rec Hall the reason that I was there was for the Zero Latency VR activity. Basically I got to be a marine fighting zombies on the holodec with 3D glasses. It was an absolute blast and I will definitely do it again.“

“We moved in across the street and heard good things about the place. They’re often busy and it always smells amazing so we grabbed a couple burgers for lunch today. The pine room burger and the patty melt were both 10/10. We will definitely be visiting more often!“

“Awesome place! Visiting from WA for our friends wedding. The food was amazing especially the wings. I was blown away by the level of customer service, they absolutely rock. Sucks I gotta go back to WA 🤣“

“Saw a friend's band play here on a Saturday night. Place was hopping. Drunk girls dancing and falling over. Lol. They had KENO, 2 pool tables, pinball and a separate room where there was a private birthday party. Didn't order food, so can't comment on that.“

“This place is a hidden gem and absolutely great. Worth the trip to the strip mall. Bartenders are great. Beer selection and food options are also surprisingly awesome. Pinball and punk rawk for the win.

Parking: Bruh, it's in a strip mall

Kid-friendliness: Not a good spot for the kiddos

Wheelchair accessibility: You could pop a wheelie here. Wheelchair accessible“

“Great pizza and friendly atmosphere!“

“Great food and service! Pizza, burgers, and steak night are my favorites! Great service and friendly atmosphere. Music, trivia, and other fun activities!“

“Arch Nemesis Brewing is a hidden gem that should be on everyone’s list to visit. This modern yet cozy spot has a welcoming “hole-in-the-wall” charm. Whether you settle into a stool at the bar, sink into a couch, or claim a table, you’ll feel right at home. Grab a board game from the shelf and dive into some of the best hand-crafted libations around. Not sure where to start? Go for a flight to sample the unique creations brewed right on-site – it’s the perfect way to experience the variety they have to offer.“

“J McGraugh’s is hands-down one of my favorite spots, and it’s all thanks to the amazing team that makes every visit unforgettable! I have to give a huge shoutout to Sarah and Katie, the absolute rockstars behind the bar. They’re not just bartenders—they’re mixology geniuses with incredible personalities. Whether it’s a classic cocktail or something custom, they always get it perfect. Plus, their friendly, upbeat energy makes you feel like part of the family the moment you walk in.

And let’s not forget about Troy in the kitchen! The food here is next-level, and Troy deserves all the credit. Every dish is cooked to perfection, packed with flavor, and served piping hot. It’s the kind of food that keeps you coming back for more.

If you’re looking for great drinks, mouthwatering food, and a team that makes your night unforgettable, J McGraugh’s is the place to be. Huge thanks to Sarah, Katie, and Troy for making it such a special spot—I’ll definitely be back (probably sooner than I should)!“

“I have heard about this place for years! It is as awesome as everyone said!!!“

“I love their food. And iv always been treated very well. My babies love to come here and eat and so far iv not had anything I didn’t like off their menu.“

“Bunker's is a nice corner pub with a outdoor covered patio. The price of drinks was much lower than I anticipated, meant more to tip the bartender. Friendly patrons at least the few I met. They were open promptly at the listed hours. Only thing that was missing was music(no ambient music in the background).“

“You guys rock! Thank you for everything you all did for us on Saturday!!💜 You all went above and beyond 💜 Top notch ladies 💜“

“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 ?“

“the bartenders are amazing and everyone is friendly“

“Great food and drinks. Good prices. Excellent servers. Great food and drinks. Good prices. Excellent servers.“

“My mom is hood friends with the owner. My dad who has passed from als, was always up there... I got on Tuesdays nights which is bingo Wednesday are darts my mom calls for bingo and helps with darts so needless to say I k own this bar. It's a cheers type place if u are known or a regular or a person of the street. They r professional. I love this bar as thr song goes if I dnt know an answer I can find out very quick like“

“Coming in there was no one in here. To find they opened late today. Only had wings and fries. Ordered garlic Parmesan, sweet hot, and buffalo. Chicken cooked to perfection. Some of the selections were a little salty to me but overall the food is great and the staff is friendly. Will definitely make this a spot to visit in the future. You can rent out the whole place for a reasonable fee. Don’t sleep on this establishment. Did I mention it’s black owned.“

“They like to turn the volume up on the jukebox.🥳“

“I’ve been here twice. First time was for my bachelorette party. This boat was perfect! We were put up in the karaoke room right away and our server came up frequently to make sure we had enough drinks and everything was good. It was the perfect night! Then we went again yesterday for my birthday. The drinks were fantastic and there was plenty to keep us entertained while waiting for our turn in the karaoke room. The only flaw in the night was fixed right away by the amazing security staff and the manager! I would only suggest a better system for the karaoke waitlist. We were called for our room and went up only to be told by the waitress (who did not check the waitlist) that someone else had the room and even though they booked after us we needed to leave. I wish I had gotten the names of the security staff and manger because when we brought this issue to them they resolved it right away and we were able to enjoy some karaoke to end the night. Thank you to all the security staff and the manager (those 5 stars for you) for helping end our night on a good note! I will alway recommend this place to people and will gladly go here for any birthday in the future! ❤️ Also we did not eat here but we saw Nachos coming out that looked absolutely 🔥 and if the kitchen had still been open we would have ordered some!“

“Shoutout to my friends for taking me to fancy places. I’m not a member of the cigar bar in the Ritz Carlton in St. Louis, but I have a friend who is and wow, what a vibe. If you get the chance to check it out, absolutely do. The shrimp cocktail and octopus? Fantastic. And yes, we got the flatbread too — a little guilty pleasure moment. Just don’t show up in fur unless you want to go to the dry cleaners a few rounds.“

“Great bar, great atmosphere, friendly staff! Great local bar and good drinks! I’ll be back!“

“Absolute finest dining in all of the Midwest. The escargot is to die for. On Sundays they have a falafel bar that is out of this world. Completely unexpected, but they do have over 100 flavors of ice cream. I would highly recommend this establishment. But make sure you bring cash because they are cash only!“

“We have been to this bar for years. It's very much a part of our lives. It's a small, unassuming place with a pool table, few games, and a jukebox. The narrow setup can make it feel crowded at times but most of the time it's comfortable. The people are friendly. The drinks are inexpensive. The vibe is always fun! Fyi they do allow smoking like a lot of bars in the area.“

“good food nice place...and tv with sports“

“My first time there yesterday to celebrate my brother's birthday and when I say we had a blast I truly enjoyed the atmosphere laid back and great for pool darts great drinks and the bartender Shay was a Doll we will be back and soon“

“I was here the other night for my birthday! it is a fun, cozy atmosphere! Dustin the bartender was very friendly!“

“Tina's awesome! This cash only bar is ready to serve those dedicated souls from early in the am until the law says the day is done. The clientele are low-key fun and not judgemental... The crowd skewed younger than me tonight... Made me feel old. Still good fun!“

“Great bartender!!! Fun place!! Chelsea is awesome :)“

“This is an awesome bar! If you hate cigarette smoke, it is not for you. You walk in, and you're automatically taken back in time to the good days. This place has great food, good prices, and great service! They have a homemade ranch that is amazing!!“

“Great environment! Great people“

“amazing fun loving place to hang out an chill“

“Wonderful spot! The bar tender was super sweet and attentive, and the patrons were all very nice. Very clean and welcoming, but still maintaining the small town bar atmosphere we were looking for. We were made to feel at home from the beginning. If we are ever here again, we will be sure to stop by. :)“

“Jamie,Kelly and Kelsie are hands down the best behind the bar! Their energy is infectious, their drinks are top-notch, and their service is unbeatable. Kelly crafts perfect cocktails with skill, while Kelsie keeps the crowd engaged and the vibes high. They work seamlessly together, making every night at the bar an experience.

And let’s not forget Carol, the amazing owner who makes it all possible! She’s created a fantastic spot with a great atmosphere and top-tier staff. If Kelly and Kelsie are on shift, and Carol’s running the place, you’re in for an unforgettable night!“

“Traveling from NW Indiana my wife and I stayed a couple nights here and made it to the bar for a couple night caps after our days of enjoying the town. Each evening Jennie K was our bartender and needless to say she’s AMAZING! Her drink knowledge and bubbly personality is a quality trait hard to find these days. She’ll dazzle you with her knowledge of Triple Sec! Highly recommend you stop in here if you’re in the area. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Super friendly. Eclectic. Great live bands. Fun. Comfortable. Good mixed drinks. Historic. Local shops nearby.“

“Super friendly. Great service. Fun place to relax and enjoy!“

“Fantastic food!! Server was great but she definitely needed some help keeping up. She did a phenomenal job though running things on her own. Women's bathroom trash can comes with a side of rust so recommend making sure you're up to date on your tetanus booster.“

“The server Jelani was very nice and made my time coming back home from boot camp amazing enjoyed the drinks and watching football it was a good time“

“Went to the Ritz last night for their New Years Celebration. My shoe strap broke when walking in and I didn’t know what to do. But the staff there saved the day. I’ve never experienced such amazing hospitality. They saw me struggling and came to my rescue. Shoutout to Kenna for helping me. She not only offered a solution, but she sat on the floor and took 10 minutes to fix my shoe herself. All of the staff are so amazing and kind. My shoe stayed on all night and I was able to fully enjoy their amazing party. Thank you guys again ❤️“

“Fantastic people! Great food.“
