50 Best Cocktail Bars near Richmond Heights

“We visited yesterday for the first time… from the service to the food, everything was exceptional! Our waitress was the best!“

“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!!!“

“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!“

“This is a bar. It's not a restaurant with drinks. The bartenders are good, and the drinks are excellent. You pay for good stuff, so it's not cheap. They have classes and flights on the menu. It gets crowded, so make reservations or go in before the crowd.“

“This was a wonderful cocktail bar. The mixologists were super personable and so much fun! The drinks were delicious and inventive. Thanks for a great night!“

“We went there with a large group. The atmosphere was great! Beautiful views and nice setup. Odd thing though, when we arrived early the waitress said we wouldn't get service until the start time. I understand maybe not having dedicated service but do you really want to not serve customers that are willing to drink? ?“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 ?“

“Wonderful experience all around. From their delicious unique cocktails at the bar with very knowledgeable staff, to the amazing food experiences we had for dinner. Fantastic wine list with a really unique experience!“

“It’s wonderful in relaxing“

“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!!“

“Fabulous Martinis and Kicking Bloody Marys“

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

“Great place for friends biker bothers to enjoy great tones and cold beer. Great food and great home hospitality“

“We had the 10 course tasting menu last night and every single one was a hit. Woke up today thinking about the flavors. Amazing service as well!!!“

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

“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.“

“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 place is a throwback to classic drinks and magnificent food offerings. The bartenders are knowledgeable and will help you find the right drink for you or make you what you like. The bourbon and whiskey offerings are vast, and some are unique. I recommend Purgatory and The Last Word classic pre prohibition drinks that are remarkable, to say the least. It's a good spot for a date or just a place to grab a drink and small bites alone. My bartender was Jeff, his knowledge and love for his craft go above and beyond epic. If you happen to go tell him, Lamont sent you.
Enjoy!“

“Great drinks and atmosphere“

“I don’t understand why this place doesn’t have 5 stars across the board. The place is perfect! Presentation, flavor, service, all is perfect! We had a variety of different plates tonight. I have never had a disappointment with anything here. However, when asked what my favorite tastes were, I have to say the scallops, which was a special, or the shrimp scampi, (an hors d’oeuvre) were at a tie. Both perfectly cooked and the scampi with the sauce and the bread is incredible! We also had Mac n cheese, onion rings and fries as a side. Normally I don’t get these items, as I never would at another restaurant, but here, you know it’s going to be great with our next few meals! The halibut and the vodka past were also both perfect! I really don’t know how else I can describe it. We ended it with a Tavern Sundae as well as espresso. The sundae was again, something I would never order, (I’m not a dessert person) but it was served with chocolate, vanilla, strawberry ice cream, homemade whip cream, hot fudge and a variety of toppings. Sounds basic, but with multiple people, it was the perfect way to end meal! Drinks, cocktails are great and creative (or classic) and the wine list is a perfect pairing to any meal you have. Service is always a plus for me and every time I have been, they always deliver! Well done!!“

“We love to go to the Fountain before going to the Fox. Always great food and service. We had exceptional service from Andrew H.“

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

“This is our favorite restaurant! Love the atmosphere. Love the creative and fabulous flavors on the menu. Love the service and love their personal mission. This is a place you must go in STL.“

“cool place great burger awesome service“

“Came here for the first time after reading numerous good reviews, and I'm so glad with the food and service Yellowbelly offers. Our order:
Brussel Sprouts - 3/5 - The Brussel sprouts were a little extra charred, so they were a bit dry, but the sauce was spot on
Cheddar biscuits - 4/5 - the portion size was too small, but they were flavourful, buttery, and melt in the mouth
Street style corn taquitos - 4.5/5 - Flavourful and a must try
Jerk chicken spicy burger - 4.5/5 - it wasn't as spicy as we thought it to be. It was kinda on a sweeter note. But I have to admit the chicken was juicy and super flavourful. I would definitely recommend this
Lion's share Cocktail - 4/5 - pretty nice bourbon cocktail
It's just a little expensive on the pocket, but overall, it was a great experience, and the servers were super friendly, too.“

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

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

“For years, every time I go in I beg whoever will listen to bring back the burgers. I used to love the Mr. Robinson with the mac & cheese and bacon bits. Finally they listened to me and brought them back, so of course I had to get one-and it's even better than I remember!! So good! Love everything else & the ambiance is always amazing, but even more now with the menu additions. Great place to stop by for drinks, fun times, & yummy food!“

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

“Great new spot in the Grove. Fun low key punk vibes with cool murals and art throughout the building. Really nice staff and several vegan options for food. Super Queer friendly with gender neutral bathrooms.“

“Simply a great experience. The relaxed, travel-like vibe of the interior, along with great service and great wines make this a gem for sure.“

“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!“

“The food was delicious (I had the vegan fried rice with shrimp and yard bird wing) as well as the service. The atmosphere was such a great vibe we had a small birthday gathering on the upper level it was so nice and the birthday song from the workers was the icing on the cake as the saying goes. I would definitely recommend“

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

“Love the ambiance there!!“

“Delicious dinner! friendly and speedy service!“

“Amazing food ! We can’t wait to try more very soon! Everything was so fresh and such robust flavors that blended perfectly together! Awesome place !“

“Great trendy small plate version of Yucatán style food. Loved the mackerel, scallops and dumplings!!“

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

“We’re regulars, but last night celebrated our wedding after party at Hummel’s. Dawn made sure we had some of our favorite beer and that she’d stocked up on what everyone would want. She started campfires, helped make our sparkler entrance happen, and even surprised us with fireworks. This is the kind of bar you trust with this special of a day.“

“Fantastic as always! Probably the best burger in St. Louis. These 2oz smash burgers are seared to perfection.The Louie was a nice choice with sautéed peppers and onions. Next time I’d add a third party.Pro tip, there’s a gated parking lot but it’s free!“

“If you're on the fence about where to grab coffee or breakfast with a friend or colleague look no further than Ivy Cafe. The food and coffee is excellent, the service is top notch and its a nice calming atmosphere to foster great conversations. The owners are pretty cool too.“
