    Stumbled upon Hammerstone's and was not disappointed with the Saturday live music. Chill atmosphere, great drinks, and food! The band was friendly and engaged with the audience.

    Hubby and I were doing a historical walking tour of Soulard and stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday around 11am. And, we were pleasantly surprised. The food was delicious and everything on the menu was so affordably priced. I ordered the vegetarian 3-egg omelet filled with spinach and Swiss cheese and Irish potatoes and rye toast as my sides. Our server was great. The inside is definitely bar atmosphere. I'd like to try sitting out on their nice patio area next time.

    This is a fantastic boozy, bluesy, divey and overall fun bar. Drinks are stiff, the bars are great, patrons are friendly.

    This is a cozy little bar with a nice outdoor patio. We went to hear the band, Soulard Blues Band so we stayed inside. It has a lot of atmosphere, kind of divey, but good, with quite a few people who looked like regulars at the bar. The food was very good and the music was great!

    Went hike this morning. Friend picked Hammerstones for Brunch. Nice day and real crowded. I ordered 2 eggs breakfast with Irish potatoes, bacons and toasted wheat breads. They were very good. Bacons smoked tasty and it was good. I'd come back again. Thank you

    Hammerstone's is located in historic Soulard in St. Louis. Established in 1997, Hammerstone's occupies a building that dates back to the late 19th century, originally serving as a tavern. Hammerstone's is a fun brunch spot that's definitely worth a visit. The omelets are fantastic, packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The hash browns are equally impressive, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Loved this brunch on the patio.

    Hammerstone's Famous Chicken Tenders and Fries & German Wedding Soup
    Michelle L.

    I had not been in here in years but was here on a recent weeknight to meet a friend for an early dinner. The server sold me on their soup special, German Wedding Soup. It was like Italian Wedding Soup but with bratwurst instead of meatballs. I was intrigued. I ordered that and the 1/2 order of chicken tenders and fries which turned out to be a $5 happy hour special. Everything got delivered at once. I enjoyed the soup but felt like it was overly salty. The chicken tenders are hand breaded with a tempura batter and tossed in corn flakes. I really liked the texture of the batter and these would have been great except they had no seasoning at all. The fries were a basic crinkle cut but fried crispy the way I like them. The honey mustard was a good one. My dinner date enjoyed the same soup and a burger. Service was friendly but definitely different than the regulars at the bar were getting. Excellent value on the happy hour menu! I'm sure you're here for the music and the atmosphere rather than the food. I'll be back!

    Yummy uncarbonated peach tea. They also have mango and watermelon

    Who knew Hammerstones had breakfast? I didn't either, until my daughter suggested it. We sat down right upon arrival at a bar table and were quickly greeted by our waitress. I ordered a bloody Mary and thought it was perfectly seasoned and flavorful, not too spicy, but just the right flavor. Everyone got something different, so we could try a variety of items. Breakfast pizza, French toast, two egg breakfast, and the chicken and biscuit sandwich. The inside was not too loud for how crowded it was, but they also had patio seating available. I could have hung out there all day on the patio, but my teenage kids had other plans for the day, lol! If you are looking for a good brunch spot in Soulard or a place to start your day drinking, go visit Hammerstones. You'll be glad you did!

    The owners are super fabulous! I came for an event during the 12 hours of charity and the owners are on site and really encouraging customers to donate to charity without pressuring them. The staff was so friendly and outgoing. I never had an empty drink in my hand. The bartenders are constantly checking on us, as well as other staff members coming around. It was definitely different than what I'm used to, usually you have to get the bartenders attention to be able to get a drink this is not the case here everyone was very Attentive. The band was great they played every music, and I will definitely be returning to this far in the future! The pricing was very reasonable. I would say below what I typically spend at a bar, and they offered great food as well.

Whether this was intended as a joke or not, it reflects a serious failure in professionalism, food safety, customer service, and leadership. Guests should never have to question whether their food has been handled safely or whether their special moments will be respected by the people serving them. What is equally disappointing is the apparent effort to limit public discussion by turning off comments rather than addressing the concerns directly. Restricting the conversation does not erase what people saw. A responsible business should respond with transparency, accountability, staff retraining, and a clear explanation of how this type of behavior will be prevented moving forward. Customers are being extremely intentional about where they spend their money right now. Businesses cannot afford to treat guests carelessly and expect continued support. When customers no longer feel respected, safe, or valued, they will take their money elsewhere. Without customers, businesses lose revenue, employees lose opportunities, and establishments eventually close. I expect better from management, better from the service staff, and better from the overall leadership of 360 Rooftop Bar. This situation deserves more than silence. It deserves accountability, corrective action, and a sincere public response.

Everything tasted delicious, and the staff remained very attentive throughout our visit. I was also impressed by the cleanliness and the interior design.

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.

We arrived right on time for our reservation, stood for quite a few minutes in a half-empty house before being seated, then waited a very long time between visits from our apparently over-stretched waitstaff. The first cocktail I chose wasn't available; nor was the first entree. I settled on the "red wine flight", and it arrived in three glasses. The server recited their names, but I didn't catch them. Food was middle of the road. A smoked sirloin sandwich was tasty, though rather well-done. And the order of "salmon cakes", which the menu says is made of "smoked salmon, roast corn, tomato, cucumber, creme fraiche, and capers" was in fact just one cake (not cakes!), smaller than a hockey puck (about 1/2" thick max) and seemed to be made of canned fish, not the bright orange of smoked salmon. It was accompanied by five thin slices of cucumber and three or four halved grape tomatoes. No corn, no capers. It was so boring, and an overpriced disappointment at $23. If this Bridge is actually closing and focusing on the event space, they've gone out with a whimper. And if they're actually continuing service, I hope they get the food a little closer to the menu descriptions. Our drinks and water glasses were empty for long stretches.
