Espresso Martini
Nicole S.

This was the final stop we made for my birthday dinner plans on Thursday evening. The espresso martini was TO DIE FOR--the best I've ever had. They were out of several of their desserts, so I didn't get to try the chocolate orange cheesecake (the reason we went there in the first place). It was disappointing, but we settled on the banana split--ya definitely cant go wrong! I'm still dreaming about the layer of crunchy brûlée on the banana. Service was a bit slow but all of the staff were very friendly. It was moderately busy, more than I expected for a Thursday at 9pm--it's clearly a popular spot! The space feels super intimate, definitely a good option for a date. I'm planning to keep an eye on their seasonal offerings to plan another time to go. Although, I'd go for the martini alone!

The "Lover's Plate"
Ali L.

Went on an absolutely lovely date to this location! Very romantic atmosphere with low lighting and upscale aesthetic. The espresso martini was the best espresso martini I've ever had! We also ordered the lovers plate, which was very similar to that of a charcuterie board where there were multiple types of desserts to sample. We also had the most wonderful server, Jimmy. My partner is hard of hearing and he was very accommodating and friendly. The date was pretty cute too . Cannot recommend this place enough!

Lovers Plate - Aphrodisiacs - Taste For Two
Anna G.

Good service and great vibe. Came here with a friend and got cocktails and the sampler plate to split. Was a LOT of food for just two people, we ended up leaving a lot of the popcorn behind. Great place for a date night or a special event. Probably not somewhere I'll come to frequently because it has a limited menu. There was plenty of street parking. The desserts are pretty good but feels as though it's all premade or frozen. I wouldn't describe the food as ultra gourmet but was fun to try it out!

Lover's Plate
David S.

Has a great atmosphere and feel to it. Staff was great, attentive enough but not too much. Thr food itself we got the lover plate. Description itself seemed enticing and when when we got the plate very exciting. But it becomes a disappointment with thr popcorn. Taste and feel cheap and used to fill flare without giving you more. The chocolate balls are very rich. Thr banana brulee was great and so where thr brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I didn't get to taste the macrons. Contrary to thr previous pictures they gVe two not three. But I went there because I had read thry served amazing drinking chocolate. Thr plate itself had two small cups, but rather than drinking or sipping chocolate it was dipping chocolate. It wasn't hot wither but a bit cold not even warm temperature. I had to order a cup of hot chocolate, which didn't take like high percentage of cacao but almost regular hot chocalate but higher end quality. I don't drink so, I have nothing to say about that end of thr business.

Chocolate martinis
Erica S.

Baileys' exceeded my expectations, which were already high because I love chocolate and chocolate martinis! I love that they take reservations too. With the ambiance, it can be a cute romantic or friend date spot, and there is plenty of options for food and drinks. My friends and I focused on trying the drinks but one of them enjoyed the flatbread they ordered. When seated at our table, the server had given us these delicious small cookies for free - one for each person! The chocolate martinis were amazing - my favorite was the signature martini! Certainly want to come back and try more martinis and food in the future though (also heard from a friend that their desserts are great)!

What a lovely experience. Our server Astor was exceptionally good. He was so nice and has such a gentle manner. He made the evening so nice. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and very cozy. We started with drinks, an espresso martini and strawberry whiskey. Both were very good. Bailey's Chocolate Bar is mostly known for dessert but they have a few savory items. Flatbread, cheese and charcuterie, crab cakes. The cheese and charcuterie board was very good with some interesting cheeses. A Norwegian Gjetost was delicious. Crab cakes were great. Crispy and hot. We ended with the lovers plate. A lot of delicious sweets and drinking chocolate. The drinking chocolate was very good and the treats on the plate which were numerous were so good. We had a nice array to take home. I highly recommend Bailey's Chocolate Bar!

Bailey's is a longtime establishment in St. Louis. It is located in Lafyette Square which is an area of the city I have always enjoyed. It is a place I tend to go to other restaurants in the area, but stopped in one night after eating at the Polite Society. This is probably the biggest knock for the spot, I don't view it really as an option for food. They do have a modest food menu, but it is definitely thought of as a drinks and dessert place. That probably is inherently tied into the fact it is a chocolate bar! I don't think of that theme overlapping with many great main dishes. I've heard reasonable things about their dishes, but it isn't what anyone really talks about and I've never heard anyone say they went to Baily's for the food. The ambiance is pretty good but very dark. This gives it a romantic vibe. The place is always busy, typically a mixture of couples on dates and girls' nights. I think every time I've been in there was an all girls birthday celebration or bachelorette group. People tend to be dressed up, with this being one of many stops on a night out for many patrons. I think for these sort of activities it is a great spot. I mean my wife and I stopped in on a date night to get a dessert. That is the drawback though, it serves a bit of a niche role in the food/restaurant community in St. Louis. For that role it is great, but it limits it appeal to a degree. If you think a chocolate martini and a slice of indulgent cake sounds great stop in. If you want a porterhouse steak and craft beer go somewhere else.

Baileys' is a quaint little spot with a unique romantic vibe. We tried a variety of the dishes on the menu. They started us with some mini chocolate chip cookies. They were overcooked but tasty. The chocolate martini was delicious, and the old fashioned was very unique. We ordered the charcuterie board, which was very good with a great selection of cheeses. The fig jam was delicious. The crab cakes were good, but the roasted red pepper chutney was the Star....so good! The prosciutto flatbread was good, too. We ordered the chocolate inebriation and brownie for dessert. We were not impressed with either dessert. Unfortunately the dessert at a dessert restaurant was not the star. It was a fun experience but wouldn't eat there again.

Bailey's Brownie
Tess A.

We came back to try Baileys again and I can confidently say the individual desserts are much better than the Lovers Plate selection. The Bailey's Brownie was our favorite thing we ordered; it was so rich and delicious. The Hazelnut Torte was also really good. For drinks we ordered the Milk Chocolate Martini and the seasonal Dubai Chocolate drink. The drinks are pretty strong so keep that in mind. Service was good and attentive and we feel that the pricing is fair. The vibe in the restaurant is always excellent, it's the perfect date night spot!

Cookies!!

Friends night out this past Saturday... Stop #2- Bailey's Chocolate Bar We didn't get any normal desserts so we decided to drink ours!!!! Tiramisu Martini Original Chocolate Martini Grasshopper (and it was not Green) think of a Girl Scout Thin Mint!!! Salted Carmel Martini All were sooo good!!!! We didn't have a favorite because they were alll good They offered some chocolate chip cookies on our table and good news... you can buy them to go soooo that's what I did!!! Yum! The service was Top Notch and the restaurant has such a nice romantic vibe!!! Note: we made a reservation for 730 but was told that we needed to be out by 845??? But then was told that we didn't... Weird!!!

The sexual martini
Kim J.

Can I give this place 10 stars??? I came here on what was to be my 6 moths with my bf. He left me hanging so I happily went alone. ( chocolate yeah I'm not missing out) I arrived for my reservation, and the space was beautiful and quaint in all the right ways. This was July 2024, some updates In the best ways have occurred. I did two martinis, the flatbread and a dessert. Man oh man was it delicious!! The bartender was newer she was fabulous, with making small talk and her work ethic. I was beyond impressed with this place.

Flatbread caprese
Les D.

So much to like about Bailey's. It's such a quaint location and a cozy environment. I really like the menu. It's a creative hodge-podge of fun favorites. Edamame, garlic fries, and a host of sweets. Much of it is good, but some of the items are just a little off in their execution. For example, the flatbread is super crispy yet the toppings on the caprese are gooey and don't really meld with the bread. Just tastes rather flat than a tangy, spicy taste of tomato and/or basil. The chocolate brownie looks great, is a little on the crunchy side, but is cloyingly sweet. Sugar overpowers what should be a great, chocolaty treat. Could easily cut the sugar in half and probably have a better brownie. Tiramisu almost had the opposite issue. Thick, coarse bread rather than delicate layers really held the tiramisu back. These are just some of the examples. Regardless, we had a fun time here; the food is still good, but could be better with some minor changes to execution.

Came back again just a few months later with friends and shared this Lover's Plate- so so so good! Just wanted to add this photo for all to enjoy! Also got the Bailey's martini, rich and delicious!

No, this is a local family owned restaurant. They own several restaurants in the StL area.

So is it open yet? Are reservations required? Are there any covid protocols I need to know about?

Are they still closed due to water damage? Their website indicates that they are, but the hours here were update two weeks ago.

Hi Jessie! Baileys' is still temporarily closed but plans to reopen after the first of the year!

Do they still have complimentary chocolate chip cookies on the table when you're seated?

No when we went two months ago we did not get any

Do you have to be 21 to get deserts here?

Hi Madeline, No all ages are welcome here! Hope you visit us here soon!

The cocktail list is solid, and the beer selection is seriously impressive, packed with a great mix of local breweries and unique options.

One of the coolest touches is the large display of vinyl records, it adds a ton of character and gives the whole place a unique, almost nostalgic energy. We didn't try the food this time since we just stopped in for drinks, but it's definitely on the list for next visit.

It was a pretty serious drink. I'd probably get a weaker, sweeter drink next time, because that is my taste. The mac and cheese was pretty good. Quite hot! It came packed in this little bowl. I felt so cozy here... It made for one of my preferred eating out in the city in winter experiences.

This included a 4-course meal and a glass of wine. We arrived around 6:50pm to find many other couples standing, waiting to be sat down. We checked in and were told to stand and wait. Around 7:30 pm, several other couples became impatient and were told they may sit at the bar. At this point, many 7:30pm seating time couples had arrived. At 7:45 pm, I watched 2 couples from the bar get seated at tables. I had watched them arrive to the rooftop off the elevator after my husband and I, so I spoke to one of the servers expressing our desire to be seated given it was now almost an hour past our seating time and that couples who had arrived after us were already being seated. To their credit, they sat us quickly, but it continued to go downhill from here. We waited 15 minutes for water, which we only got when we flagged down a server. Our food came out relatively quickly. During our first course, I asked for napkins (every other table had red fabric napkins) and our server brought us like 20 paper cocktail napkins, not ideal for a nice dinner. Our entrees eventually came, although the server brought out two of the cod entrees. My husband ordered steak. He brought my husband's steak, which he ordered medium, however when he cut in it was obviously rare. It was sent back. The next steak was also rare. We spoke with who appeared to be running the event and he stated he agreed it was rare (bleeding on the plate.) Finally on the third try, we received a medium rare steak, not as ordered, but close enough and at this point we wanted out of there as it was past 10 pm. Mind you, at this point we could feel the anger and frustration radiating from all of the 8/8:30 pm seating people who were still waiting on tables. We left quickly when our meal was done. We had one refill of water the entire 2hrs we were eating our meal. We were not asked if we wanted anything else to drink. This was a small event, maybe 15 tables. I'm not sure if it was overbooked, underpowered, or if they simply were just unprepared, but I've never had such a poor experience at a restaurant.

Our particular visit, it was an extremely busy Saturday and it was obvious the wait and bar staff were at their limit. Took forever to get both food and drinks, but when they finally did come they were great. I highly recommended the hummus, lots of hummus to pita ratio beware. Drinks came garnished beautifully with oven dried lemon slices (southern Arnold Palmer). Mango cart was on draft so I was very pleased. The manager was kind and apologetic in regards to long waits. She kept our party posted throughout. The Bullock knows they have some kinks to work out. Beautiful location, a little over priced on food and drink, kind staff (subpar service).

We arrived a little after 11 and found a space in the back parking lot. The lot is convenient as it's pretty well-lit and is diagonal from the CF. We entered through the back where the deck is and walked right in. Upon first glance, you'll notice the hanging lights above the entrance and then after a few feet, the bar is immediately to the right. The tables are all along the left side as to make a walkway for the bar (super convenient). Due it being their anniversary, it was a bit crowded but not too bad where you couldn't get a drink or walk through. My usual go-to is a flavored vodka (three olives grape) and sprite. While they had a plethora of spirits, sadly this wasn't one of them. They had other flavored vodkas but I opted to get a simple Cosmo while my friend got a makers and coke. The Cosmo was just what I needed and might I add, well made!After we got our drinks, we did a quick walk through of the other side called The Oddities (coming soon), as well as the upstairs that overlooks the entire place. The stairs are steep, so it would behoove you to hold on to the railing. While I love trying new places, I was a bit apprehensive because I thought I'd stick out like a sore thumb. Turns out, everyone was friendly, the drinks are great, and the music wasn't bad! They had different acts going on for this particular evening (I'm not sure if this is the norm), but I know my friend is a regular on Tuesday's for karaoke. I do intend to come back and try out some more drinks and food and check out the other place once it officially opens.
