50 Best Bars near Fenton

“This is such a great place to hang out with friends. Great food and friendly service. We always enjoy karaoke on Friday nights with Beth the KJ. Love that it’s non smoking!“

“Chili’s has become mine and my kids’ favorite sit down restaurant, and there’s a reason we keep coming back! The atmosphere is always laid-back and comfortable, but the service is consistently quick and attentive.We’ve been here plenty of times and genuinely have never had a bad experience.

Today was no different. My son wanted to treat me to lunch and Jennifer took great care of us. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed.

Also, do yourself a favor and get the cheese sticks 🤤 And the Monterey Chicken from the secret menu is SO good. IYKYK“

“Vangel’s is the most exceptional meal out we have had in a long time. Soft music, soft lighting, great choices for drinks and hearty menu items make for a memorable night out. Louie the owner made us feel at home on our first, but not last visit to Vangels. Thank you for the hospitality and great experience all around. Tracy“

“Stopped by for a chill night and was pleasantly surprised. The pizza was actually pretty decent—crispy crust, good flavor, and hit the spot. The pool tables were a nice bonus and kept things fun without feeling too crowded.
Big shoutout to Billy W. behind the bar—super friendly, quick with drinks, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely the kind of bartender that keeps you coming back.“

“My wife and I are visiting the St. Louis area and my wife found this gem. This was a great experience. Stephen and Zach were fantastic hosts. Tasting all the whiskeys and finding a blend that matched our taste was so much fun! We picked our bottle style and came up with the name for our blend. You do need to budget at least two hours to pace yourself and even partake in some of their food offerings. At the end of the night, we took home a bottle of “The Year of Steph”. Whether you are a seasoned whiskey drinker or new to the spirit, you will have a great time. They also have a selection of cocktails, but we did not sample any (next time!).“

“My family and I have been going here weekly for years. The staff is awesome and kind. The selection of beer and Liqour is amazing and the food is delicious.“

“Awesome place!! So much fun, friendly atmosphere!“

“A great old school bar to hang out in“

“Cute and cozy! The old world charm makes this the place to be!“

“I love that there's a total dive bar in uptight, old money Clayton. Staff is down to earth, the patrons don't get too drunk. Drinks are reasonably priced. If you're in Clayton and want a drink without worrying about who is listening to your conversation, this is the place to go.“

“Always a wonderful time! Good drinks, good people, good atmosphere!“

“Great homemade food. Staff are wonderful. Great place to go.“

“This is an excellent spot. Craft beer lovers should check it out.“

“Had a blast with Amy Sampo and Jake!“

“I LOOOOVEEE THE STAFFF , with the exception of MEG from my experience is racist x100! I sat here today and my other black friend had to go to the owner about their owner than explaining the issue, bc he know like I, it’s start a mental race issue WITH MEG AS ALWAYS AND KNOW.N BY MANY BLACK PATRON! THEY ARE WILLING TO NOW SPEAK AFTER TONIGHT!I reported her issues in 2022 and it hasn’t changed. i come here to relax and listen to the available music. Meg tells me a black woman, Beyonce, if played multiple times will make her upset and she will project that to customers. She never has asked anyone else this EVVER! In discussing further of no tip, she advised me not to come back in if I’m not playing the music that makes HER happy if not expecting for it to be turned off or for anger to go to other patrons which made me feel discriminated and responsible for others bad times. In drinking my drink in an almost empty bar, NOW, I’m taking seats up and mich as before amassing people around her to bully. This isn’t right and MEG SHOULD BE FIRED but at the very least a case is coming as she informed me her and the owner talk often and hertreatment is of the bar. As Meg stated if I want different treatment don’t come on her shift vs trying to make things right. My biggest fear is retaliation for speaking out CONTINUALLY on the same issue and we are still here and I AM BANNNED. So another reason this is public bc of the fear she put in me that her and the owner are so close that my claims will mean nothing!“

“Stopped in for a couple drinks while we waited for our pizza from pizza a go go. This place is neat! Friendly atmosphere and drinks were made perfect! If ever in the area again we will be back“

“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“

“Great pinball bar!! The selection of pinball games is excellent. Bartender was a little to boisterous, but still nice. We went on a Saturday night, it was dead... let me tell you why. Karaoke, and it was HORRIBLE. Not that having karaoke is horrible, it's the few people that were there that couldn't sing. You could tell it was a few regulars and that's what is keeping more people from coming. We left because it was so bad. Will definitely be back though when no karaoke is going on“

“We came here with our Boston fan group to watch the Celtics for their title clinching game and had a great experience. The staff was super accommodating and the food was great. We look forward to mixing Ice & Fuel into our game watch rotation in the future!“

“Awesome food!! Best in west county!“

“the Monday- Friday bartender for sure! Best in Soco! Go do some day drinking with Lisa!“

“I have been messaging back and forth with the owner for over a month to plan my daughters graduation party. We did a Sunday, so we had the entire place for just our private event. There was a heat index of 118+ that day so the AC had some trouble keeping up and I do know other restaurants in the area had to close down because of AC issues. Even with all that, the team had reached out to an HVAC company right away. The amazing staff immediately brought out large fans and had ice waters poured and ready to go for when guests arrived. Patti, Amy, and Parker all asked me several times if they could help me set up my own decorations- the restaurant itself already was set up for my party and looked amazing. There was excellent communication throughout the event. The food was delicious, and the service was top notch. Most of all, my daughter loved it. We come in about 2X a month usually so I was comfortable hosting the party here. I am glad I did. We will definitely do this again for other events. Huge thanks to Amy, Patti, Parker, and Colleen! Also worth noting, for a catered event, the price was extremely fair! Sorry no pics of the food...but the sandwiches, pretzels, wings especially, T Ravs, and salad were ALL delicious!“

“I noticed some inaccuracies in the Dec 2024 M reeves review I'd like to point out. Tony's beer is cold & it doesn't cost $7 The only hot food available for purchase is pizza however the owner & her daughter (Pat & Diane) provide FREE food for numerous celebrations throughout the year. They also sell chips. Tony's has a lot of regular customers. I've been going there once or twice a month for years & if there's a secret handshake that's a well kept secret! Tony's is & has been a family owned bar a long time. Their prices are on the low end of the spectrum & if you get in a fight you're banned. Usually for life. Newcomers are always welcome, attitudes are not.“

“Always a good time at this old school bar. Cash Only... I love that

The bartenders are fun and the beers are always cold. The outdoor area is much larger than I expected which works great when I have a larger group meeting. Always a fun place to grab a beer with a buddy.“

“Who did your masonry? It is marvelous!“

“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.“

“Best tavern on the south side. Always making friends at Babe’s.“

“It is great. People are wonderful. Great burger“

“Great food. Great sauces as well. Authentic. Try them out!!“

“Everything!!!Great dinner, drinks and atmosphere! Bartenders are on point!“

“Excellent selection in both draft and bottle. Super cool open air venue in the summer.“

“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 ❤️“

“THIS IS THE WORSE PLACE IN THE WORLD, WE HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS SHIT OF PLAYING MUSIC ALL DAY LONG IF NOT A BAND THE OVER HEAD SPEAKERS, MY DECIBEL METER READ 109 AND IM ONLY 30 YARDS FROM THIS. WE NEED TO BAN TOGETHER TO GET THIS FIXED. ITS HORRIBLE“

“This was my first time here and can I tell you what a great time I had listening to the greatest play-list of all. The whole Bar, including Larry, was singing.. The greatest bartender Karen made me feel like I was from Kirkwood, MO and I can't wait to come back.“

“Easily one of the top restaurants to try in STL. The dishes were well executed and the service timed everything perfectly. I would love to see the chef have a bit more creative license and split a some more from the upscale American tradition. Also... may need some more acoustic treatment for the space. But overall, it was a fun experience.“

“The food is phenomenal! We've ordered about 10 different items (steaks, burgers, lamb, appetizers, sides, desserts, etc) on two visits and loved all of it! Top notch!“

“A little dead for a Friday night with only 3 food trucks,, but it could be that they're elsewhere as a lot of festivals are going on. The entertainment is so-so tonight with a mellow , but good solo performer. Not many people, so watching them is blah. Lol“

“The best all around staff in Kirkwood. Thank you for helping to make a wonderful birthday dinner for my daughter! Can’t wait to see you all again!“

“DELICIOUS 🤤 we will be back in town next month and SO excited to dine here again!!“

“Great food and staff! Very attentive“

“It was such a great time! Food excellent, wine even better and the atmosphere was so awesome. Low lighting just a great vibe“

“Came here to see my friends show. Parking lot was pretty jammed, there’s an Irish pub? Right next door.
The exterior is pretty impressive walking up to it.
The inside, there’s an antiquated ATM if you’re attending a cash only show. And once you get inside inside. The vibe to me was like a basement or maybe a living room. Which I loved. Comfy, feel right at home. Very loud sound system. Bartender came and found us, like sought us out. Even though we didn’t want anything, props for that. Really good service.“

“Really great food, cold beer and a barmaid named Jordan that made me feel right at home. Thank you Jordan! Maybe see you on Saturday or Wednesday. Danny“

“Mi Lupita's is our favorite authentic Mexican restaurant. We love the fresh squeezed Margaritas, Chicken Mole Poblano, El Pastor Tacos of pork and pineapple. Great service, atmosphere and everyone is o friendly. Best of luck on your new location.“

“Delicious food, attentive service, and cozy ambiance. Highly recommended for a delightful mea“

“It is great to have a hotel restaurant in the middle of Clayton. I find the lighting too bright and the chairs too simple to be this highly rated. But generally speaking, the food is good. I’ve had slow and mediocre service so I don’t understand.“

“It was actually a pretty cool & relaxed place to wind down & just chill, play pool, watch the game or play darts. The pizza was good, but not made to order. Its frozen & baked for you. No complaints. You're allowed to get food from next door & bring it in. As far as the drinks, I knew what I ordered was not what it is was🤔 a shot of 1800 silver is smooth & strong. This wasn't that. So I was disappointed. But overall, I would go again! They are some really nice ppl and a good time was had!!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pictured below is the Gonzo calzone- Salami, dates, spinach, garlic herb cheese, mozzarella, mascarpone-ricotta blend, and garlic oil with garlic butter on the side. My husband looked at me like I was crazy when I read off dates but the slight sweetness against all of that savory is what made it!! We also tried the Fatty B, Meat me in St Louie, Magic Carpet Ride, and the Gyro. They were all amazing but the Gonzo and the Gyro were my favorites. The Magic Carpet Ride is also a must try if you're into mushrooms.“

“I went for a birthday dinner and it was fairly empty when we arrived but filled up about 90 mins later. And this was on a Wednesday evening around 5pm, not a weekend. Anyway, I ordered the Quesabirria which was pretty good. The beans (refried) and rice that comes with it works better as an additional ingredient to an entre but not as a side dish (in my opinion) so I took a bite and that's it. The food was pretty decent. Not yummy yummy 🤤😋 but decent. I'm not a huge fan of Mexican food so take that into consideration. The bathroom was clean. The staff was friendly, I didn't encounter anyone that was rude or anything so that's a plus. The parking is a little tricky and I only say that because it's fairly small but it's because they share it with a hotel and an apartment complex so be careful where you park. You don't wanna come out after your meal to a ticket on your windshield. There is a parking garage that has plenty of parking but it's a bit of a walk depending on where you find your parking spot so keep that in mind. Maybe drop off your group at the door and then have someone volunteer as sacrifice for that lengthy walk after they park in the parking garage. Maybe 🤷🏾 Just a thought. 4/5 only because a 5/5 would be considered perfect and I don't think that my overall experience reflects that. However, I would recommend it to anyone that is a fan of Mexican food. They might like it.“

“Most expensive dinner I have ever splurged for but it was WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! It really felt special. All of it. We really loved our server too , Martin (Marteen). Just wish we had not waited so long to go!“
