Happy hour specials were a great deal but the rubbed wings could have had a little more flavor as well as the T-Ravs could have used a bit more seasoning. But everything was hot and service was decent, even though the bartender seemed to keep forgetting us a bit. My only complaint was that the smoke from the outdoor side drifts in so there is always a bit of cigarette smoke in the air and could be a touch warmer as well, but we would go back again. read more

Arrived around 5:00 for a beer and some food. They had so many beers on tap! If you can't find something you like, you are not trying hard enough. The food was good for traditional bar food. We had the dry rubbed wings and toasted raviolis. We sat at the bar and was a bit disappointed that the service was a little slow at first. At times she would be gone somewhere for a good while before taking our drink order and then again to order food. It did get better after the second bartender arrived. read more

Stopped in after being guided their direction by the staff at FELIX PIZZA - since everyone was closed or closing in the area and we were looking for dinner. Nick's stays open until 0100, so we had plenty of time to not force the kitchen staff to rush. A neat corner pub on the edge of Dogtown. There were only a few patrons there, the staff were helpful and friendly. The walls are decorated with sports paraphernalia. The sign on the wall says they have karaoke on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Outdoor patio seating available, along with a game room. Started off with an order of toasted ravioli - beef. Great flavor. I opted for the cheese quesadilla off the appetizer menu with the added chicken. It was packed with chicken. Made for a great meal. The other option at the table was a burger with chips. Thumbs up all round. They have coke products an added bonus for those of us who do not drink. Coke is the only soda option, IMO. The food was good and worth a visit. I was there in an off night after 9:00, so cannot speak to the crowd or noise level. read more

Why did we just pay a cover for noone to talk and ir take our order? we left after 30 minutes of noone acknowledging us

Now we found this place because we were tired of our usual spots. Tucked off behind some tracks and off a side street it seemed, we found this awesome location. With a dimly lit bar area and a party area you can reserve for events this place was busy. We ended up sitting in the dining room by the bar. Our Waiter was awesome and the food was even better now I love a good burger the they didn't disappoint. Everything as hot and fresh and seasoned to perfection. Some of the best fries I've ever had. Food was so good we even decided to get a pizza to go read more

Visited on Wednesday, November 5th from 6-7pm. This place used to offer a fair level of "service", but not anymore. The drinks were half pour, for starters. And the food? Waaaay overcooked. We were hungry and couldn't eat the burned mozzarella sticks, threw them in the trash. There were two ladies bartending, and both were very rude. One particularly. No eye contact, no smiles. I say thank you when they pour me a drink, no response. They don't care. Maybe because they were more occupied with eating, drinking, and checking their phones. THESE WOMEN ARE A CANCER TO A BAR. Had to chase them down for a drink, and mind you, the bar wasn't busy. Finally ordered two drinks (not mixed), it took 7 minutes to pour 2 whiskey on the rocks. My friends and I will not return, ever. My friend had to ask for every drink he had. When he met me at the bar it took 15 min before we finally waved at one of the girls at the bar that was staring at her phone for several minutes. Why does your food suck? Why are your employees so rude!?! read more

I was gifted a pub pass for Christmas and have been making my way around STL trying new breweries and restaurants, so next on the list was Nick's Pub. I had been here back in 2019 during the Stanley Cup and it was PACKED. Great environment but I didn't get the chance to try any food at that time and I think we shared a bucket of domestic beer. I was excited to go back after realizing they have over 100 beers on tap and a BIG food menu. I ordered a 4 Hands IPA (can't remember the name) which was ok but had a watery finish which was odd. My husband enjoyed his beer (can't remember which one). For food, we ordered the fried pickles for an appetizer and while the flavor was good the breading lacked and we were disappointed. I ordered the "that's what she said" with tots (tots were so good) the sandwich was really good but WAY too messy. One of my biggest irritations is when a sandwich is so messy that you have to disassemble it in order to eat it or it falls apart while eating. I enjoyed the spicy aioli a lot but doubt I would get this sandwich again due to the messiness. My husband ordered the Frisco melt and he thought it was very good. Overall we will be back! Excited to try more of their beers and some of the other food options. read more

We came into Nick's at 6pm. They had one table with folks leaving. We set down and after 10 minutes got up and left. 3 girls were behind the bar but no one acknowledged us. The one girl got the ticket from the folks leaving. They left. That server picked up her own order on the bar and left through the back. The other 2 were up behind the bar and the one never got off her phone the entire time we were in the place, the other server went upstairs. We got up and left!! What's up with Nick's ? They had no one in the entire place but we couldn't get anyone to come over for an order!! No acknowledgement we even entered the place. Terrible and very sad because we have came to Nick's for years! read more

Lilly is the sweetest person! Foods great, service is fast and personalized. Great vibes

If you have the 2025 Pub Pass, you are limited to 3 beers even though there are 100+ on the menu. Bud Light, Bud Select, and Kona. Most of the food listed on the Pub Pass page is also not served anymore. It sounds like they've changed management or ownership recently. The waitress that served us was fantastic, but the bathrooms are questionable at best with weirdly large, brand new advertising screens. One toilet even had a trash bag over the tank of it where it was cracked. Bring a flashlight or your cell phone if you want to see the menu. Update in reply to the owner's comment: We were literally there last night, so the toilet was fixed overnight?? You should probably tell whoever was working the bar that it is 30 beers, because they informed us it was only 3 - bud light, bud select, and Kona. After seeing the Teddy's poppers on your website, I was actually looking forward to trying them, but the kitchen just so happened to be out of them. Hmm read more

Nick's Pub has seen its best years. Soap dispensers not working in all restrooms and smell like something died. The new staff all congregate on the "smoking side" away from the door, so good luck with consistent service. Also, it took about four attempts to find a beer tap that was not out. The food tastes worse than a freezer section dinner at double their previous prices. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the man who walked into the bar and immediately threw up. The bartender tried to ignore the vomit until my friend and I said something. Instead of sanitizing the floor and cutting the man off, the bartender handed him bar napkins to barely pick it up and allowed him to continue drinking. Save yourself and your money. This ain't the same Nick's. read more

The food was good. We ordered a stuffed potato appetizer which was very good. We also ordered a double cheeseburger and a southwest chicken wrap, both with fries. The double cheeseburger came with something called "grilled ketchup." I was intrigued as I have never tried that. It was a bit of a disappointment though as it just seemed like it was warmed ketchup. I was hoping for something with more caramelization of the sugars in the ketchup from the grill. The chicken wrap was very tasty and a large portion. My husband needed a to-go container for half of it. The fries were good. I asked for them well done, and they were nicely brown and did not disappoint. The beverages arrived in large tumblers with crushed ice which was a pleasant surprise. Only Pepsi products are available for soda. There is a funky smell in this place. The waitress was rather short with us today as well. The bathroom was out of toilet paper. The floor and stairs to the second floor are uneven. read more

Ordered take out and it said ready in 10 but took about 25 minutes. No sweat as I can't believe a fresh meal could be whipped up in that time. I got the blackened mahi sandwich with chips. Sandwich was good and the lime mayo on it was amazing. The chips were super salty but I still was able to eat them. For the price, great portion size and quality was what I expected. read more

I didn't catch his name, but bartender was amazing. Ordered fried pickles, Even tho Tyler said they were spears but they weren't, they were chips and the best chips. They were like crunchy on the outside and on the inside if that makes sense. Told me before I started touch tunes was upstairs and not down (we were downstairs) Saved me a few nickels on that one. read more

Pickles were basically cooked to absolute perfection. Felt like chips from the heavens above. The mini Tacos looked so good I burnt half of my face off! (All of the ice tea you could ask for. The server was cool.... He deserves a 10 percent raise and an xmass bonus. read more

Over 100 beers on tap! Fun dive bar with lots of TVs. Fairly standard bar food. Crowded and lively.

It is a fun place except for being pretty old and run down. It gets too crowded late, like super crowded I. A way that would never pass fire code. They only have one door they partially block with a register to collect a cover charge. Drinks are expensive and sometimes hard to get because they never seem to have enough staff on hand, or the bartenders don't want to work quickly. This place can be fun, just understand you will have to deal with crowds, long wait items and expensive, underwhelming drinks. They have many beers taps but only half are actually working. read more

The customer service isn't good here. I end up here sometimes at the end of the night on the rare occasion that I go out and I always end up regretting it. The bartenders are dismissive and rude. Even some of my friends who use to frequent this place have stopped going. read more

I really hate to be leaving a bad review on this place. I have so many great memories here. I'm giving it 2 stars because at least the fries were still good. Although they are an upcharge with burgers now. New ownership is absolutely ruining this place. I'd been coming here since I turned 21. Tonight was the most dead I have ever seen it. Menu was gutted, prices went way up, and food quality has gone way down. This place used to be where you came when you wanted good food at a decent price and you'd stay to drink until all hours of the night. Now it's just another mediocre dark lit bar in south city. It's a damned shame what they did to this place. Burger was painfully bland and when fries are an additional charge 13 dollars is not a reasonable price point for it. For real. Jack in the box does better and that's sad. Also don't ask about substitutions on anything on the new comparatively limited menu or for an iced tea. You're going to get a blunt no from a staff that seems eager to tell you no. If you've been a long time customer and haven't been in a while it's not worth the return. This place isn't what it used to be and unless ownership pulls their head from where it's firmly been placed in their rear end probably never will be again. read more

Wonderful food, burgers were tasty and the fries were hot!!!! Fried pickles good!!! Cold beer!!! Mic Ultra was out on tap.

Went to Nick's last weekend to check it out now that it's under new ownership and WOW, it's painfully obvious these new people don't have a clue about this establishment AT ALL. For one, the clientele and vibe that night was very different than usual and not in a good way at all. It felt like a fist fight could break out at any minute. Very weird, very uncomfortable. In my 18 years of frequenting Nick's, I've never really had any complaints about their live music choices. It's usually an acoustic solo or duo act that sounds great with great song selections and they were superb at working the crowd (shouts to Noah Glenn, Jeff Nations and Eric Nelson, especially on this!). The night I went in, I was worried to see they had a DJ set up. As expected, we were treated to a smattering of awful rap, pop, and hip-hop that was played WAY too loud for the small size of the room. The DJ wasn't even that skilled and the soundsystem was terrible. We eventually left because we came to hear music, not a guy pushing buttons on a laptop. The whole experience at Nick's that night was a complete letdown and I don't plan on going back anytime soon. Bottom line is if you're coming to Nick's for the great live music and fun, casual vibe that it's been known for for the last 20 years, don't bother. It's clearly long gone. I was talking with a friend this week who informed me that the new owner, Bob, had his errand boy talk to the stable of bands that have been regularly playing for the last 10 years and told them all that if they wanted to keep playing at Nick's, their pay would be cut in half or they'd be fired. My buddy found out that they're paying the DJs almost triple what they were paying the musicians. WHAT A LOWLIFE MOVE. Knowing that is enough to keep me away from Nick's forever which is a bummer because that place really has been amazing up until these last couple weeks. Bob's gonna have some hard pills to swallow these next few months (if Nick's is even able to stay in business that long...) read more

Nick's Pub - Just a small portion of all of their taps - Pubs Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Went to Nick's Pub to meet some friends we are a veterans organization and wearing our veterans vests. We were told to leave because of our vests. Vests are not allowed. Explained to the bar tender we are a veterans group. They told us absolutely not and we had to take our vests off. Our vests were earned and we were not there to cause problems but having drinks and food. I would NOT recommend that no motorcycle riders or veterans spend any money in this establishment. My husband and I will never patronize this business again. We believe in small family owned businesses HOWEVER when you can't support the veterans or a veterans group you've lost our business. Trust me I'll spread the word. PS we live in the neighborhood also. read more

Bar with lots of TV's and an awesome large covered area outside. I wouldn't really call the outside seating area a patio because there are walls and a ceiling and you can't see outside. The outdoor portion has it's own bar, and has 8 TV's put together to make one huge TV however. Their is a server who waits on tables there as well 101 beer options and a food menu with casual bar food. I tried a Southwest wrap with a side of house veggies. I didn't have high hopes, but they were actually delicious. Have regular live music and karaoke. read more

We visited on 12/10/24 and the menu has made significant changes since September. Food was ok... prices went up. Sandwiches and burgers no longer come w/ fries so you're paying 12-16 for a sandwich/burger. Bartender added a couple bucks to his tip that I put down. Only a few dollars but was not what I gave. Not calling to complain as it's not worth the energy but I will not be back and it's sad cuz Nick's used to be a staple for us. read more

Best wings & daily specials. The service is ideal when its not super busy at night. But its also super fun spot to grab cheap drinks here late night. For sure my favorite dive bar in the area. read more

New ownership is ruining the place. Prices on nearly everything have increased especially on their lackluster food. Was only ever good for how cheap it was now I would never even think to eat there. Bartender is also a giant ass that will be either extremely rude or just not get you a drink. Real shame to see how far they've fallen. read more

Y'all need to fire Teddy. When you ask him for something he doesn't respond at all. No head nod, no thumbs up, no eye contact, nothing. So you have no idea if he even heard you since it's a busy, noisy bar. And then if you ask twice he literally screams at you "I heard you!!!!" and the whole bar goes silent. Way to treat your patrons like s***. He obviously cannot handle this job and needs to go to therapy and get his toxic masculinity in check. Even after doing that to someone in my group, another person went out of their way to say thank you and sorry and he made zero eye contact, no response, nothing and then threatened to throw my friend out of the bar just for asking for something twice. He's just a jerk who needs to find another job where people aren't asking him for anything because that obviously TRIGGERS him. God forbid anyone ask for anything from a BARTENDER at a BAR. read more

A little neighborhood pub that now charges stadium prices on drinks. Nutrls are $9. 12oz Nutrls $9. I could not believe it. The new ownership is going to price this place out of style. Seems like they are trying to turn it into a nightclub and that's not going to fly with the Nicks Pub loyalists and locals. Also, they have always charged $5 for cover but the "live music" is now just a DJ who plays club music. I'll pay $5 for live music but not for a DJ. New ownership taking advantage of people at this point. Same owners as Tamm Ave Bar which also charges too much for drinks. read more

Good bar, food not the same since new owners came aboard.. Mike is very rude and treat his employees unfair , my boyfriend worked there and half the kitchen staff jobs have lost because they hired all Mexican I say NO DONT EAT THERE !! read more

The beer selection is out of control! They have 101 beers on tap and you can even get your name on the wall if you fill your card of beers. The bartenders and staff is always great and a good time with conversation or back and forth banter. The bar for me is a hidden gem. It has 3 different setting types. The inside is one type of vibe in itself then you have the outside and of course the upstairs with many choices of games! It has something for everyone! read more

The food was good, and the service was freindly. The prices were terrific. We ordered from the lunch menu and had plenty to eat. Lillie was an excellent bartender/server, who made us feel right at home. This was an Irish pub, but the food and staff make it worth a repeat visit. The value was another plus! read more

Happy hour goes until 7pm and includes food! There is a smoking side of the bar. Upstairs you'll find games like darts and pool. The food...during happy hour apps are half priced. They don't skimp on the portions during happy hour, and everything is tasty. The bartenders are kind and very attentive. The ladies bathroom on the first floor is small, you've been warned. read more

Nick's pub is sort of a dive bar, sort of a college bar, sort of...something else entirely. There is a downstairs, upstairs, and covered patio. Lots of space, bar games to play upstairs, giant screen in the patio area. The environment is fun, very casual. Dark lighting. Major downside: this is a smoking bar. I would go much more frequently if it weren't for this. On a busy night, you will leave smelling like smoke. SO MANY DRINKS on tap. I really appreciate that Nick's has non-beer beverages on tap, too - ciders, shandies, framboise. It's very fun to look at the extensive list and try things you had not before or just did not want to buy a 6-pack of without trying first. Food at Nick's is pretty good. It's all bar food, but it's good quality bar food. That said, it's a little pricey for bar food. They have specials but the wording on the menu can be confusing regarding what the specials do or do not include. Happy hour specials are awesome. They are almost always open - cool to have a go-to bar when others are closed. read more

I feel I can't give this place a fair review since I haven't spent time here. Every time I've been, my friend has been turned away. Yes, he's of age. No, he's never acted out. He just isn't from the US. He doesn't have a US ID to show the bouncer, only the one from his home country. A real, government ID. I really hope this is a change that this place can make so he and I can visit together read more

Nope. I went here because a friend always wants to meet there. Bad neighborhood that kinda smells bad. The wings were burnt and kinda bad. This place has always been just what it is. Crap. read more

Dropped by Nick's last night around 1am. The main bar was packed so i decided to go to the other bar in the next room and tried to grab a drink. As i was waiting, i met a girl who was sitting at the end of that bar and we started chatting for a bit while the bartender was doing her thing. There was a female bartender making the drinks and when she finally turned my way i asked her for a crown on the rocks and a can of sugar-free redbull. She came back with a tinny glass overflowing with ice and no more than 1 inch of crown on the bottom. I asked how much it was and she told me that it was $18. I was shocked of the price being so high and hardly any liquor in it and asked why so expensive for a glass with mostly ice and a redbull. The female bartender started to yell at me with great disrespect and tried to pressure me into just giving up the money but I told her that i would not pay for it and then said "fuck off" "get the fuck out of here" "piece of shit" to which then i replied "i'll go to the other bar". So, I went to the main bar and asked for a pint of a red lager, tipped the two men working at that bar and went back to the previous room to continue talking with a girl i had just met who was also sitting at that bar. As soon as I went back to continue chatting with her, the female bartender got close and yelled more insults and said that i should apologize to her to which i replied that "I was not interested in talking to her and that i didn't owe her anything". This bartender was on some power trip because right after i said those exact words she flipped and became very hostile and threaten me and that i should do as she says or she'll get security and have me beat up or thrown out unless i did as she wanted. I told this little person to leave alone and she immediately went to the other bar in the main room and soon after a heavy set guy with a pink Floyd shirt came running in my direction. I had just gotten the pint of the Red Lager beer and this guy comes in my face, grabs by beer from my hand and puts on the bar, yells at me to leave the drink down and go talk with him. I thought that he was going to say smth like, "oh, her cat just died after she accidentally ran over with her car and she's in a bad mood" but no, this pathetic looser just slammed the door in my face after i stepped out to speak with him. I tried to explain to him that not only that i did not do any thing wrong nor used any profanity or insults but that i had just paid for my beer. Whoever owns Nick should understand that this is no way to ever treat your clients and that i shall never pay when i think i'm being extorted and that if your staff threatens customers with impunity, there's no telling how it might end. Both of those individuals have zero class or any people's skills, they are disrespectful and won't hesitate to use profanity to insult customers and attempt to shame them into accepting their shitty attitude as if it is the norm, especially men who won't put up with such disrespect. This is not the 1st time this has happen but never had some little chick go and tell lies on clients and then convince some idiot who doesn't question anything who acted like he wanted to get into a fight. If this guys would've tried to put hands on me the rest of his night was going to be unfavorable. His aggressive body language that was telling me that i might have to use violence to protect myself. So, to recap this detailed memo, here are a few major points to consider: 1. Nick's overcharges for liquor 2. Nick's charges customers for ice 3. Nick's employees have zero customer skills nor do they care to, at minimum be nice and curious to their own clients 4. Nick's forced me to leave the beer i paid inside due to a wrongfully kicking me out 5. Nick's employee insulted me and attempted to intimidate me in hopes of extorting a false amount of money (she failed) 6. Nick's employee, (in my opinion as someone who has been in the service industry as a bartender, line cook and server, for more than 15yrs) have smth shady going on with the prices and drink portions. Moreover, i saw the review regarding the disrespect your staff showed towards our veterans and i have to say that what happen to me and them and many others over the years, (other things i have overlooked there, such charging my friend 2023 Saint Pats for ice) Nick's should be ashamed and i would strongly recommend that Nick's needs to reform their business culture and treat their customers with dignity and respect and not treat them like carp. Lastly, not only I will boycott Nick's but will also encourage everyone i know to do the same unless Nick's Pub employees treat their customers decently with respect, kindness, dignity and fair prices to portions. read more

Great food and drink specials. Monday night trivia is so much fun! Love karaoke and the live music on Friday nights!!!! Service is great!
