Things To Do
Soulard
Home to Anheuser Busch, Soulard is the St. Louis neighborhood nearest and dearest to our hearts with it's beautiful houses and lively streets. Start your day by walking through the Historic Farmer's Market and having a coffee/Bloody Mary at Julia's and grab some beignets or other treats from the vendors. Take a tour of the AB brewery (with some free samples, of course) before exploring the rest of the neighborhood. Some of our favorite institutions are local Irish restaurant McGurks & The Woodshack or 9th Street Deli for a sandwich. Watch a Cardinals game and listen to some live music at 1860s or enjoy a large beer selection at ITap while grabbing some late night treats at Mission Taco Joint. Hop across to Layafette Square for a quieter scene with more upscale dining at Polite Society, Eleven Eleven Mississippi, Vin de Set and drinks at Planter's House or 33 Wine Bar.
General Recommendations
Known as a beer town with a baseball problem, St. Louis has many great craft brewery options. Some of our other favorites include: - Schlafly - Civil Life - Alpha Make sure to try some toasted ravioli, which are usually a hit, or be bold and see if you are one of the few out of towners that like St. Louis style pizza with Provel Cheese. Imo's is the most popular example, but there are plenty of spots in town to offer it. As you can. tell we love our hometown and think it has a lot of gems to offer so please let us know if you have any questions and we can help point you in the right direction!

One of the newer happening areas to pop up in town, The Grove is home to more delicious food and drinks as well. Some of our favorites include The Gramophone or Union Loafer for lunch, Urban Chestnut Bierhall for German brew and food, Nixta, Olio, Indo or Elaia for a delicious dinner, Handlebar for some ice cold Stag beer and Atomic Cowboy for some Lone Star beer
Broadway Oyster Bar
Grab an Abita Purple Haze on tap, listen to some great live music and try Mary's favorite dish, Crawfish Enchiladas.
Dogtown
Home to an annual St. Patrick's Day parade, Dogtown is another neighbor we frequent when in town. Neighboring Forrest Park, home of the St. Louis Zoo and many museums, it's a great place to have lunch and watch some sports.
