Reserved a spot at Tinsel Tavern located in the Shark Bar for $5, now I know why it was so cheap. I…read morewas excited to try this pop up bar only to be disappointed. Staff were friendly and welcoming and it was decorated pretty , but that's where the compliments end. We were seated at a small high top table that was supposed to seat 4, but only two of us were comfortable. Stools were not sturdy. When asked for a food menu we were told food was not available. They had a charcuterie board we were told but the ingredients were not appealing at all. We were told we could not bring food in but they could save our seats while we eat somewhere and come back . That would make us miss the trivia time we were so excited to play. I'm sorry but this makes absolutely no sense. This is ballpark village. All these eateries in this facility and there is no contract in place to allow customers to bring in food from the restaurants. Are you kidding me. Looking at the drink menu , it's pricey and the one drink I decide to order is not available, the Fireside spiked cider. Ok so let me recap 1) no food 2) can't bring food in 3) drink of choice not available 4) missed trivia night. Yeah this was an epic fail for me! That's it that's all. Not impressed!! On to the next !

On Friday, May 15, 2026, I decided to stop for lunch even though I rarely eat out. Unfortunately, I…read morewas extremely disappointed with my order. I ordered the codfish sandwich with fries, and it came on two pieces of wheat bread instead of the hoagie roll it used to be served on. The cod was overcooked, the portion was very small, and the fries tasted like they were cooked in old grease. I haven't had Jack in over three or Four years, and the quality has definitely changed. For $16-$17, the meal was not worth it. I cannot recommend this location based on today's experience.

They have a large patio (like most places in Soulard) and it has ample seating. There's a bar inside for overflow. While they do serve food, we missed the cutoff and just went with water and cocktails. They have a nice assortment of spirits (rum, vodka, gin, etc) with plenty of mixers to accompany it. I went with my usual Three Olives Grape and sprite and it came in a plastic cup, which you could keep. I def. like the convenience of it because you can reuse it instead of having to toss it. The bartenders were friendly and upbeat, which makes a difference when it comes to service and overall experience. I wish I could have tried the food, so hopefully I'll get there earlier next time. Aside from that, I had a great time and can't wait to return.

What a fun place!…read more Since the previous place we went to was on last call, we came and spent the rest of the night here. I had heard from several friends that this was a great place to watch sports games and has a good crowd. While it was late when we came, there were still plenty of people. First off, this place is huge. I almost got lost for a second because it seemed like every turn I went I ended up in a new room. Like the last place, this has a whole section dedicated to darts and pool. There's ample space and TVs in the main part of the bar and throughout. Drink wise, I got my typical three olives grape and sprite and my friend got a beer. He loves this place for the food and the atmosphere. He got an order of wings, fries, and jalapeño Mac and cheese balls. While we were looking for a place to sit, he took me outside in their heated and covered outdoor area. Again, there was ample seating, but best of all, they have a pop-a-shot machine! He ate for a little bit and then we went to play. Overall, I loved the space and drinks and def see myself coming back when I'm in the area.

They have a lot of selection which was nice and the bartender was super friendly. It looks like they have a nice outside seating area, but I didn't go out there. They also have a QR code on the tables where you can order Mexican food from the Spot next-door. I got a street taco and it was delicious. I was able to eat it in Amsterdam. I would definitely come back. I hear it's really fun when there's a game. I just haven't made it out yet.

Don't waste your time!…read more We spent 15mins walking to this location after using Yelp to confirm the hours of operation.

I stopped by this place the other night for dinner. It's one of my go-to spots for food in Soulard…read more The friendly faces behind the bar and the great service always make me feel welcome. Their cheese curds are some of my favorites, and I always start my meal with them. I usually dip them in ranch dressing, and the squeakier they are when you bite into them, the better and it's that real Wisconsin cheese. I had been craving a juicy bacon cheeseburger, and they had just what I needed. It came with pepper jack cheese and two giant tomatoes that hit the spot. The burger was so satisfying that I couldn't resist getting some shoestring fries and another side of ranch dressing. It's my favorite, so I always order it. They also have a covered patio out back that's great for nights, and another bar upstairs on weekends, usually with a DJ getting people dancing.

The restaurants were open, some had lots of customers while others were vacant. We didn't get lunch today but the choices are endless, from pizza and burgers, to poke and Mexican food. The outside area is really nice, clean, with lots of photo op opportunities. Love the convenience of being so close to Busch Stadium. You can almost feel the joy of the fans, even on an away day. I visited the Hall of Fame (see pics) which was cool. The museum is there, too, if you want to pay for a tour. Visit any time.
