In Short
Famous Bar is an anomaly: half blue-collar, half silver spoon. This crusty hole-in-the-wall manages to attract an eclectic assortment of revelers each weekend. The long, dark bar opens up at the back to accommodate… Read Full Editorial
Classy by Bennett K via Insider Pages on 12/20/2008
This bar is not really famous -- but it should be. The drinks are terrific and even in this day and age, they are very generous with the alcohol. I enjoy drinking here a lot. I've never tried the food but some ofmy friends, who don't…
Wonderful local bar with delicious bloody mary's! by lindzei via Citysearch on 1/13/2008
This is one of my new favorite bars in St. Louis. It is kind of small but they have a new back room with couches and tables which is great. The Bloody Mary?s are amazing... best I've ever had. The atmosphere is relaxed, the people are…

Martini Lover's Paradise by mzamy via Citysearch on 5/19/2005
The best martini I ever had was at this bar. And all the bartenders & staff are so friendly. It's a great place to have drinks after work. So everyone must check this place out. And try the Slutty Girlscout Martini, it's a regular favorite.
great little diva dive by pawcatuckjen via Citysearch on 3/20/2003
Looks like a hole in the wall, but their chalkboard drink menus are out of this world. If you're a bloody mary or martini fan, you're in heaven. It can get very crowded on weekends, but I recommend going early and chatting with the cute…
