There is no such thing as a bad bar — only a bar that isn’t right for you at a particular time or place. When you feel like tying one on, you’d be a fool to pay $14 a drink. And when you’re feeling fancy, you don’t want to trip over the local drunks crying into their whiskey. There are excellent St. Louis bars catering to both moods, and many, many more. Choose wisely!
After extensive field research, we’ve compiled a list of 25 bars that are perfect in key situations. From Brentwood to Downtown, your first date to your third date, from drowning your sorrows to celebrating your bachelorette party, these bars won’t just get you what you want — they’ll get you what you need.
