I swear some of the reviewers of this place must have honey bees nesting in their skull.On a recent trip to Saint Louis my family burned through $400+ at Union Station and the City Museum: both cacophonous petri dishes that stretch the definition of "aquarium" to its absolute limit. Rockwell Beer Garden was a welcomed respite.This is an establishment in which you can buy and drink beer, outdoors, within a large and pristine park with ample free parking and a giant playset to which you can send your kids off to in order to enjoy a fleeting moment of peace.Don't want to wait for pizza? Bring a picnic. IT'S IN A PUBLIC PARK. I am sorry that the generously priced beer doesn't immediately materialize in your glass as soon as you finish it. While you wait in a (short) line, perhaps gaze up at the sky and listen to the wind gently blowing through the trees, instead of contemplating the content of your single-star review.I challenge Google to add a sixth star.

We love to walk up and grab a beer after out pickleball games. I will say, the pizza can take a while to come out. so order right when you sit down, especially if you have little

Come here for the atmosphere and a decent beer, not to be wowed by their food options or service. That's how I give them 4⭐ even though they really fall short on a couple metrics.

Had the pretzel bites and they were like a ball park pretzel which was good. The line was rather long and only had one window so the wait was rather long so I only ended up getting 1 drink in the time I was there. It was like a concession stand. Very nice atmosphere and we sat by the fire pit and it was very nice. Also had live music which we enjoyed.

Not the best selection on draft but got some super tasty to-go beers! The dubbel with dates and bakers chocolate was delicious. They make a lot of foeder beers.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Rockwell Beer Garden, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. From their fantastic draft beer selection to delightful cocktails, they even offer coffee. But what truly won me over was their mouthwatering pizza.Rockwell's pizza is a standout, and I can confidently declare one of the best in town. It's Saint Louis style, crispy, and loaded with flavor. My personal favorite is their pepperoni pizza served with a side of ranch dressing, which takes the taste to a whole new level.It's a walk-up window so it can tend to get busy but the people working the window are always super nice! One thing I particularly appreciate about Rockwell Beer Garden is its location. Situated in a park, it offers a wonderful atmosphere, and the added bonus is the proximity to a playground. This makes it a perfect spot for families. Kids can have a great time on the playground after a delicious meal while parents unwind and enjoy the beverages.In summary, Rockwell Beer Garden is a gem for those who appreciate great beer, cocktails, coffee, and, of course, unbeatable pizza. The combination of excellent food, inviting ambiance, and family-friendly amenities make it a go-to spot for a memorable outing. I can't recommend it enough!

The staff was a bit grumpy and curt. Beer was tasty. Food was fine.

Rockwell is a go to spot for casual outdoors drinks. They are always hosting events like Trivia, Ladies Night and have partnerships with local businesses. Would recommend coming on Mondays to support Izumi and friends or on Thursday for their Market!

Lots of parking and fun outside seating in Francis Park. Rockwell beer is good as well.
