50 Best Cocktail Bars near Overland

“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 ?“

“Impromptu date night away from the kids lead us to this place! We arrived at peak dinner time- 7:30- and shockingly there was no wait! I can’t imagine this will last for long, because the service is fabulous, and the food is delicious! We have really enjoyed the other restaurants by these guys- and Press does not disappoint! I loved the Lavender cocktail, Husb enjoyed the sweet take on the old fashioned. I also had the beet salad to start- but ate it too fast to get a photo! The smash pizzas have a delicate combination of flavors, are easy to eat and heat up the next day to continue the culinary enjoyment!“

“Cocktails. Food. Service. Music. Vibe. Everything was top tier. Had a lovely time and we will be back again. We made a reservation on Google, it was simple and we got sat right away. Can’t wait to go back!“

“A cool little spot that you'd never know was there... bourbon selection is perfect, they had some different drink recipes on menu, but can make whatever obviously. Check it out if you're into small, semi quiet top shelf liquor establishments. Service only got 4 due to waitress seeming like she wasn't really into being there at all.“

“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“

“Amazing people, a spectacular Benton Park gem for those located nearby. No fake fancery or pompous attitude, just some awesome people, both bartenders and customers. Also- you can BYO food. And there is a Rallys a block away. So, in essence, they serve rally’s. If that’s your thing.“

“Shout out to Al’s Lounge for donating school supplies to deserving children in the community! We appreciate the support for our youth!“

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

“Honestly, some of the best and most creative drinks in all of STL. The atmosphere is also amazing. The orange creamsicle drink is probably one of the best things I have ever tasted. Great bar right in central west end next to the chess museum.“

“Great place to connect with friends and family.“

“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.“

“NBC was a really nice place to go and hang out and socialize. It was pretty crowded but the people it was crowded with was pretty cool and laid-back. The drinks was good they weren't to water down and the prices were Fair. My overall experience at NBC was great.“

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

“My fiancé and I always have such a great time when we visit. We LOVE viewing the latest art being displayed and the Dj/Dance atmosphere. The staff is kind and eclectic and professional. We highly recommend this spot!!“

“Awesome place!!! they make ANY type of drink, anyway you want it!!! Plus, the main bartender there is amazing!!! 💯“

“I had an amazing experience at Tschuss! The atmosphere is vibrant, and the drinks are top-notch. A special shoutout to bartender Kellen, who was incredibly friendly and made some of the best cocktails I've ever tasted. Also, big thanks to bar back Alex for ensuring everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. Their teamwork really made the night enjoyable! I can't wait to come back. Highly recommend this spot!“

“4 stars for fingerling potatoes. 5 stars for Sleigh Bells “Rill Rill”.“

“So..... this place is a hidden gem in Clayton. You gotta check out the High Bar up on the 11th floor of the AC Hotel, operated by Marriott. Everyone from the GM and manager to the wait staff and bartenders were extremely helpful, professional and on their 'A' game for the entire evening. They have a great bar with nice spacious booths, tables and a lounge area with leather sofas for seating. The entire hotel staff was amazing, including the front desk clerks and valet. Highly recommend.“

“This place was AMAZING!! The food was so thoughtfully creative and prepared with obvious talent and love. We enjoyed meeting owner brothers and hearing their story of bringing their Yucatan culture and roots to the St. Louis food scene. Everything we tried was beyond delicious. This is a must-try for authentic Mexican food inspired by the Yucatan region.“

“My only comment for improvement is regarding the unfriendly hostess on August 14.“

“I absolutely love The Fountain on Locust! It is by far one of my favorite restaurants in St. Louis! The food is amazing and the dessert is always the perfect way to end the meal! Every time I have been to The Fountain on Locust, I have left happier than when I came in! The staff is very welcoming and they always do a great job, providing top-tier service!“

“Stayed up late and made a reservation a month in advance for my hubby‘s birthday and it was well worth it. Wright’s has a romantic & moody vibe, perfect for a date night. We started off with the crab cake which was by far the most delectable bite we had. An absolute must have! For our entrees, we chose the potato-crusted halibut and 14oz New York strip. The halibut was delicate in flavor, but the lemon beurre blanc sauce packed richness. Unfortunately the NY strip was disappointing. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare, however the steak & crust itself was dry & tough. We would recommend future guests just stick with the seafood entree options, as they were absolutely delicious. The onions rings were good as is, but the tavern aioli made them great. The service we received was impeccable. Overall, we still had a 5 star experience at Wright’s and will be back!“

“Great drinks. Sting so worth the price“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere, & great vibes!!!“

“We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere can’t wait to come back!!! My husband had the salmon, rich and broccoli this was cooked to perfection! I had the fish tacos they were so good. Our desert was carrot cake & raspberry lemon cake they melted in our mouths. This restaurant gets 10 stars we absolutely love it!!!“

“Enjoyed the food, wine , and atmosphere. We stopped for lunch today and we will sure to be back.“

“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!“

“While I did not eat there myself, I called in from 600 miles away to surprise my son and his girlfriend! They were there to celebrate his birthday and the news that he had just passed the Bar exam! The staff were just as excited to be in on the plan as I was - they asked all the right questions to make sure it went down exactly as I envisioned and even called me afterwards to let me know it was a success! This South Carolina Mom really appreciated how the restaurant took the extra time on a busy Friday night (Halloween no less) to make patrons feel special! THANK YOU!“

“order from here once & had it delivered whilst on the job. food was top notch. loved the names of the dishes. If you don't order from here, you're all washed up.“

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

“Timothy’s by far surpassed my expectations in every aspect! The service was exceptional. The food was to die for, so much flavor. The drinks were fun and balanced. The atmosphere was intimate and moody. I will be telling everyone I see on the sidewalk about this restaurant! I can’t wait to go back!“

“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.“

“The food is amazing. The location is great. The service is impeccable. This is THE place to be!“

“Lydia’s did my wedding cake and it was so stunning and beyond delicious. I was able to sit down and share my vision along with trying all kinds of flavors and fillings and icings! My husband still to this day hears me say “I just can’t believe a cake that pretty was so delicious!” Like look at these pictures. It was so beautiful.“

“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!“

“Fabulous food. So glad they have re-opened“

“We had a great dinner. Kids had the steak and unlike many places, they were willing to go as rare as my 8 year old wanted for her child size steak which was nice. Service was also great, excellent timing and attention. …and bit off topic but if the hostess with the curly red hair sees this, I hope you know that your natural runway walk doesn’t need to be ignored.. if you aren’t modeling, you should be! ✨💃🏼“

“Great dining experience. Attentive and engaging wait staff. From the opening cocktails to the meal finish, all selections were uniquely and well prepared. Created one of those memorable meals that will be discussed many times in the future.“

“One of our favorite bars! So friendly and fun! Best music and great friendly bartenders!“

“Wow this place was amazing, I cannot wait to go back next time I’m in town!!! The menu was a unique take on brunch familiar brunch items. Everything sounded so good it was tough to decide what to get. We all got different meals to share and all of it was delicious! And pretty big portions, oh it was SO good. I had a medicinal mushroom coffee tasted great and had me feeling great all day.“

“My partner and I were impressed with the friendliness of service and amazing food. We will definitely go back. 5-star place, for sure.“

“Amazing owners and staff, with a really well curated shop!“

“I love this restaurant. The menu is eclectic and the food is fantastic and the cocktails are really good. Great atmosphere inside and on the patio. I've been there for both lunch and dinner and the staff is very attentive and super nice. The Chicken Phad Thai Nachos are awesome!“

“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.“

“Great place to hang with and meet new friends. Owners are great!!“

“great people awesome music“

“My wife and I went to Nixta last light for her birthday. We cannot say enough rave reviews! The atmosphere was romantic, chic and cozy. The food was EXCELLENT considering that I normally do not like Mexican food. The fish tacos and chicken tacos were superb. The tortilla chips were so good and the flan was the topping to a great night.“

“Great time, wonderful owner“

“Incredible food, cocktails and service. Their French onion soup is to die for. Lovely place with great atmosphere, highly recommend!“
