This is a relatively new addition to our historic downtown area and it fits in quite nicely. There are three parts to this establishment.

The bar:

The whiskey distillery:

They have some mementos from the Prohibition era hanging on the wall. This one commemorates when our state voted to become "dry".

And this one commemorates when the Prohibition was repealed - an actual copy of the front page article of a major newspaper at the time - the St Louis Post Dispatch.

All in all, the atmosphere is very charming and historical.

Here is the menu:

Since we were here for lunch, we went with the lighter sandwiches. But I have eaten here in the past, and have ordered the Ribeye and the Bourbon Salmon. Both were delicious.

I had the grilled tenderloin with a side of garlic green beans. The tenderloin was moist and flavorful. The green beans were outstanding, just the right texture, and plenty of real garlic.

My husband had his usual hamburger, he's a hamburger connoisseur! He gave it 5 stars! And the fries were hot and crispy, seasoned with sea salt. You can also order them with garlic parmesan seasoning. He also was very pleased with the lemonade.

The price for lunch was very reasonable, less than $20 for the both of us. The dinner menu is a little more expensive, but definitely within reason.

Wonderful review!

Beautiful cozy environment... Burger looks delicious..

greetings, blueeyes

Excelent review of this restaurant.

I thought it was cool that he was old. I imagine that the food, drinks and service should be very good, to last so much.

In just over a decade, it will be 100 years old.

Thank you very much for sharing with us. Good Morning!
