    We had a fabulous time at this place . My husband did the tasting and creating his own blend. Stephen , the owner was so fun and helpful through the whole process . Great experience!!! Highly recommend.

    We have been wanting to venture in for a long time. Finally got the chance to. We did a barrel and bottle tasting experience and it was awesome. Very neat experience. Staff is extremely kind and well versed. We tasted 22 barrels. Wheat, Rye, Barley and Bourbon barrels. We were able to take notes and decide what we wanted to create our own bottle. Really fun, learned a lot and this would be a great gift for the Whiskey lover! They have alternate drink choices for those who don't want to do the tastings and some small eats including pizza, charcuterie boards and Bavarian soft pretzels. They have live music multiple nights each month. It's a comfy, homey and masculine vibe. If you are looking for a unique experience this is a wonderful option.

    Monte Carlo!

    I just had to come back and write about Barrel House! My husband and I love this place! We frequent it often and always enjoy it. The drinks are really good. I don't like whiskey but they offer some drinks that are not "whiskey forward "and they're very tasty. My husband almost always has their barrel aged Manhattan. It feels like you're welcomed into someone's home. The owners, Denise and Stephen, are warm and inviting. The couches and chairs are comfy. It's like being in a living room. There's often live music on the weekends. We've met some fun people while hanging out there. It's truly a great place to spend some time!

    Such a unique find thanks to Yelp! Had the chance to chat with the owner Steve about the story (and he used to be a haberdasher too!). Service was excellent, the selection of brown spirits was unique and tasty and the ambiance was friendly and relaxed. Whether you're just having a cocktail with a friend or doing one of their special tastings or bottles I highly recommend.

    We stopped in to check out this new business about a year ago and we were instantly, and warmly, welcomed by the proprietors Denise and Stephen. We have since spent many wonderful hours listening to music as we enjoyed our delicious bevs. We made our special "blend" bottle last fall as we celebrated our anniversary and will do it again, soon! What a great opportunity to create something uniquely our own! If you haven't already been to The Barrel House StL, you need to get there. Have fun!!

    Barrels of whiskeys to taste!

    In a strip center but don't let it fool you. Amazing selection of whiskeys. Owners are very knowledgeable and friendly. Drinks were well made and delicious. Limited menu but the pretzel was large and good.

    Blend flight, live music, cool people. What more could you ask for?

    Such a cool place! I got the blend flight and it was a really cool experience! Got to chill in vibey environment, sip some whiskey, and listen to some good live music. If that's also your kinda thing, this is the place for you.

    From start to finish, for flights, cocktails, or the bottle experience, if you love whiskey this is the place for you. I've described it before as a speakeasy but brighter and with windows. Live music on most Fridays and Saturdays can be fun, or just have a quiet sit and sip on a Wed, Thur, or Sun. There are a bunch of special events, too. This has become my home away from home mostly because Stephen, Denise, and the rest of the staff are so welcoming and helpful.

    What a unique place I just stumbled upon! A super relaxed atmosphere, where all things whiskey and bourbon are truly celebrated. Family owned and locally sourced. There is nothing not like about the wonderful people that own this place and what they are starting here! I am so excited to have something like this not only in STL, but also out in the county!

    Was visiting St. Louis and went here with friends. Enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. Food and drinks were delicious and beautifully presented. Hosts Steve and Denise were friendly and knowledgeable. Am looking forward to going back the next time I'm in town.

    We celebrated my boyfriend's birthday at The Barrel House STL, and it exceeded all expectations. Stephen, the owner, was great to us and made sure we had everything we needed while we were there! Opting for the Barrel Experience, my boyfriend curated his own bourbon blend from an impressive selection of rye, wheat, barley, and bourbon barrels. Stephen guided us through every step, from choosing a bottle shape to crafting a custom label and naming the bourbon. While my boyfriend sampled the barrels, I enjoyed their creative bourbon cocktails - delicious! The atmosphere was inviting, perfect for a special celebration. Stephen's hospitality made the experience even more memorable. Whether you're a whiskey enthusiast or looking for a unique outing, The Barrel House STL offers an exceptional experience that I highly recommend.

    Nice spot in newer E'ville location. Arrived around 4:30 on Wednesday. Had to ask waiter for…read morehappy hour menu. Only presented with drink menu. Coconut shrimp was delicious. Hubbys steak was great. Drinks were potent! Started getting busier around 5pm.

    The cocktails here are masterfully made. I've enjoyed an, Old Fashioned, Manhattan and…read moreBoulavardier. Each one of them was superbly made. Each of my visits, I have sat at the bar. I think it is the proper place to sit when dining alone. No need to tie up a larger table for just me. Let the server have a larger party and make a bigger tip. Once I had, The HOB Chop with Truffle Fries and a Caesar Salad. My salad was typical fare, Truffle Fries were crisp on the outside and the inside was hot and fluffy. The star definitely was the chop. It was super tender, juicy and seasoned well. I'd order again. I have also stopped by a couple of times, just for a cocktail and appetizer. Once I ordered the, Prince Edwards Island Mussels with Garlic Bread. I was shocked to see the mussels were prepared out of their shells. It was a nice switch and the side garlic bread was perfect for dipping and scooping up the mussels. The last time I stopped for a Boulavardier, OMG it was delicious and refreshing. I've learned to ask a bartender if they know how to make one, because so many of the young ones do not. This bartender told me it was the owners favorite cocktail, so it definitely knew how to make one. He nailed it. As my appetizer this evening I choose, Calamari. I have never seen such large pieces of Calamari. I breading was light and crisp. I'm not a dipper, so I really didn't try the sauce. I just simply enjoyed the Calamari. The service is attentive as you'd expect at an upscale steakhouse.
