50 Best Bar & Grill near Olivette

“Fallon’s Bar and Grill in Olivette is truly a local gem! The food is always delicious—fresh, flavorful, and served with a smile. But what really sets Fallon’s apart is the wonderful staff and warm, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or settling in for a night out, you’ll feel right at home here. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great eats and even better company!“

“Everything is awesome! Food, atmosphere & drinks!“

“I’ve ignored this place over the decades, assuming it was a typical dive bar. A friend assured me the food was great and I should try it. Understatement! Believe it or not I’m a hypercritical person but I could find no fault at Michael’s. During both of my visits, everything everyone ordered was cooked and seasoned beautifully. So far I can highly recommend the Greek salad (standout among the large number of Greek salads I’ve tried), the rack of lamb and the galaktoboureko - a house-made dessert consisting mainly of a fluffy custard and phyllo dough. Even the side vegetables and rice were wonderful. The beer and wine selection was good as well and I wrote down my wine to look into buying a bottle. The many servers were extremely busy and professional and our server Amy did a helluva job. Large rack of lamb with sides, entree-sized Greek salad, two beers, wine and dessert for only $80 -which for the quality of our dinner was quite a bargain. Generic name belies quality cooking and serving! Pass it on!“

“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“

“Fantastic people! Great food.“

“Love this place!! Sarah is an amazing bartender, and it's nice to have a place to visit when I am in town. Makes my home away from home enjoyable!!“

“My first time here. The place is outstanding across the board ! Last time I had a steak this good, it cost me 3X as much. Clean, neat lil place with excellent service, Highly recommend this lil tavern.“

“This is the ultimate "Cheers" bar on the Northwest side of the STL. Cheers in the sense that patrons are friendly, and so is management. You feel safe, comfortable, and welcome. Drinks carefully poured and excellent bar food , make for a lively Happy Hour. Highly recommended for 35 and aboveTalking OGs and grownfolks. See you there.“

“Walking down Main St on a beautiful evening and the patio caught our eye. The "dungeon" basement is cool and the bartender was really sweet. Having a fire when it got a bit chilly was the icing on the cake. Will definitely be recommending to friends and coming back for dinner soon.“

“The best pizza in town.🥳“

“Drinks and food priced right. Plenty of tvs to watch the game and many dart boards to shoot on. That's about all I need... great place!!!!!“

“I drive past this place a lot and never paid it any attention. My friend and I wanted some frozen drinks and food. When I say this place was a pleasant surprise. From the security to the ladies working at the bar we felt cared for. Even the other patrons were really nice. You can tell they are regulars there and we enjoyed that. The drinks were A1 in taste and buzz level. The only “issue” I had was the menu I read about online wasn’t as extensive. I had my heart set on something I didn’t see in person but that’s not a dealbreaker. They will see us again.“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“The burgers are really good.“

“Neighborhood spot. Good Drinks. They have two bars. I have hosted political functions here and birthday parties. John and his wife have refreshed the decor and it's nice. Too much Sauce - chicken and etc. Restaurant connected to them. Eat Up!Check out their calendar, they have 2 step nights, poetry slams, karaoke. Etc.“

“Such a great, small, local, neighborhood bar! Very spacious, good vibes throughout. Too cold at this time but the patio looks cute. The food was delicious, I got the Avocado Ranch Wrap and my dad enjoyed his burger, he already said he wants to come back which is high praise from him. The service was swift and attentive from all staff members. Definitely check it out!“

“We went to Syberg's yesterday ... always our spot to meet up with our son and his girlfriend. Service was great, food was delicious..... and the lobster mac was AMAZING! Full of chunks of lobster! Syberg's on Dorsett is one of our favorites! We drive almost two hours to eat there 🙂“

“If you like liver and onions and don't want to cook it yourself the Locker Room has good liver and onions on Thurday.“

“great service, amazing atmosphere, and awesome food“

“For as crowded as this place is during live band nights, the owner and staff work very hard and successfully deliver great service!“

“One of the best bar's and grill in stl great food drinks and bartender“

“A hidden Gem. Great folks always Absolutely the best drink prices“

“Love this place! We are staying at the hotel next door and we eat here every day. Food is great! Never gotten anything bad. Only complaint is pizza was great but needed more sauce because it was dry“

“Nice“

“The place is not operating or even open, l arrived today June 5,2023 ....was hoping to enjoy the place.....as it was very good 20 years ago.....now that I am back in town to live, I do hope this special place will open soon.....as I just live about 12 doors away. Regards“

“We had not been here in a little while (couple years) so decided to stop in. It's a pretty popular spot and has a regular following so it was busy. It was a Saturday evening at prime dinner time so that was to be expected. Fortunately there was an open table for the two of us so we had no wait. Our waitress, Kasey, was excellent! We didn't feel the least bit rushed but our appetizer was out very quickly and soon after our entrees. Dishes were cleared as they came empty by any waitress or server that happened past the table. We got a burger & fries and the fish dinner with a side Ceasar salad. Everything was prepared perfectly and delivered fresh and hot.
The noise level was commensurate with a bar/restaurant which should be expected when dining at a bar/restaurant.
The menu offers plenty of options at reasonable prices and the bar can satisfy the full gamut of request.
In summary - I recommend Trueman's Place to anybody looking for a good dinner, light apps and/or drinks with friends.“

“The food is DELICIOUS and seasoned well.I love to call my order in and it's always ready when you walk in❤️👌“

“Great staff and great food!!!“

“Visiting the area and came by for a quick drink and snack. Jessie the bartender was amazing. The food was great! Def recommend this place!“

“I love dive bars! The food is pretty good and the staff super friendly. They have daily specials for food and drinks. One of my personal favorites are the mini tacos. The pizza is a thin crust St Louis style. Check it out. The crowd varies depending on what day of the week and time of day you go.“

“I wanted to leave a good review because it sounds like the mystery/holiday movie marathons get complaints sometimes and I just wanted to say how much fun I have every single time I go to either dismember the Alamo or seasons bleedings ( which I did today) like today I had previously seen 3 of the four films but I still had a lot of fun seeing them in a theater with an audience! I can’t wait for future ones! I will say the service can be meh ( I asked four times today for my iced tea to be refilled) but overall it was a fun time at the movies!“

“We went to Syberg's yesterday ... always our spot to meet up with our son and his girlfriend. Service was great, food was delicious..... and the lobster mac was AMAZING! Full of chunks of lobster! Syberg's on Dorsett is one of our favorites! We drive almost two hours to eat there 🙂“

“I had my birthday party here. It was awesome! Loved the patio and the owner let us Bluetooth MY playlist to the speakers!?Food was delicous. My guests ALL said they enjoyed everything! I most definitely WILL be returning.“

“Everyone was very nice and worked hard to make our group at home and the food was very good!“

“Everything is fantastic. Really enjoyed Onion Rings“

“Older bar and grill with good food and plenty of space. Pool, gaming and Foosball on site. Friendly wait staff and our party of 7 was quickly seated. Several tvs with different games going on. Ceiling fans made it a little drafty so bring a coat or sweat shirt in case you get cool.“

“The wings were perfect. Service was pretty crappy. We all have bad days but, we felt like an inconvenience.“

“Very comfortable atmosphere great food very friendly“

“Amazing service and really good food! Thank you so much!“

“Just a small issue with the food, still very good and you can tell it’s hand made. Onion ring had a bit of dry batter still in the middle. Smash burger patties are not as big as we’re used to but for the price are still good, didn’t quite fill the entire bun but had a good flavor. Brussel sprouts were amazing. Service was great and the bar pour taps/set up looks awesome.“

“I have been a long-time customer of St. louis Happy Hour since 2008 but the service I experienced yesterday was very disrespectful on 11/08/2025. I arrived there about 5:15 pm and ordered a steak sandwich and a long Island iced tea because they were out of the Heineken beer. Dion was my server. I sat at a table with a friend after 20 minutes had passed my friend paid her tab and left and I sat nursing my drink i received a call from a friend who wanted some food which I ordered from Dion which was a steak and potatoes no onions and a cheeseburger that was 20 minutes later and still no food, while sitting waiting watching customers come in and out, watching waitresses take orders and take people their food some people coming in 15 and 20 minutes after I have been there I'm looking like wow why is it taking so long for my food to come out just then the people sitting 2 tables from me who arrived about 15 minutes after me received their food which was the same thing I ordered so I asked Dion where is my food she replied I am not the cook 30 seconds later she bought out my food which was cold like it has been sitting for a while so I let her know my food was cold and she got upset and her voice elevated asking me did I want it remade. which now everyone is looking as she id talking " no music is playing " so now everyone is looking our way, so now it's about 6:20pm my friend that I ordered the food for ids standing looking in shock like why she is yelling like that and she wanted to cancel her food. so, I canceled my food, but I paid for all the food to keep the confusion down. Dion then bought the to go food and we left. I patronize at least 5 days a week sometimes twice a day I tip well and always spend nothing less than $50 on average. when it gets to the point that a paying customer is no longer important to the business, or you feel like you don't need their business than it's a problem. Happy Hour is a great establishment, great owners, great waitress, great customer It's like Cheers. I am very disappointed. when your hard-earned money doesn't mean anything and people think that you have to be disrespected and pay them is some different stuff. You know what they say good service goes a long way, but bad service goes further!“

“My wife and I had lunch there. reasonably priced, food was excellent, great atmosphere. Our waitress was awesome. Thanks Brynne for taking care of us.“

“Crazy awesome and fairly secretive spot - a former German restaurant turned Mexican restaurant turned 70's wood paneled rec room with some of the wildest experimental music shows in town. If they are serving food the street tacos are great but the Al Pastor burrito is a true hidden gem in St. Louis. Don't miss out on this spot when its open for its limited hours!“

“Always smiling faces from the staff and management!!“

“The food was good hot and presentation was nice.
It was hot as fire on the patio and finally manager did put N industrial fan out there.
Because of staff shortage expect a longer than usual wait for your order

Parking: Parking is not so good unless you come early“

“I have not noticed racial tensions there. (Any more than you might find anywhere in the StL)....There is a woman that frequents the bar who has color and appears to be well regarded. It IS a North side divey joint. They don't serve any food now outside of bar room pizza...But drink and beer prices are good and if you stay away from controversial conversation you'll get along with everyone in there. Which is probably true for let's say 75% of the corner bars in St. Louis.“

“Love this spot“

“Wife and I decided to hit the easy button after walking nine holes and grab lunch at Ruthie’s. Had been years since I’d eaten there, and certainly delivered! Sat on the patio overlooking the 9th hole, and bartender came to take our drink and food orders. Had the 2nd Shift Brooligan, which was a great IPA. We split a toasted ravioli app and the Crush Burger. Ravs we’re good, burger was absolute fire. Fries were hot and crispy, the way they should be!

Vegetarian options: They have a Black bean burger for the veggie in your life.“

“A great little Irish Pub. Bar tender is always friendly and fun! The crowd is diverse as well as the music. Taking turns and everyone pitching in it makes for a wonderful evening. Darts, pool tables, and even a little spot to slip of and dance if you'd like. Clean bathrooms!“

“Nice little joint off the strip in St Charles. We stopped on for a quick bite and received excellent service! The drinks were so good and the food was great quality. We were thinking it would level with bar food but it definitely exceeded our expectations. If you have not been do not sleep on this spot“
