5 star service, 3.5 star food and 4 star wings. Drinks are kinda lite on liquor. But back to the service. Had the sweetest server wanted to give him a shout out- a tall, bearded guy who was also great at making faces at the kids in our party . He definitely kept the drinks (and water!) flowing. read more

Recently came here to watch one of the world cup games when I flew to STL for the holidays. OB Clark's is such a wonderful little establishment. Unlike other bars I've been to in other cities (where the floors always seem wet or dirty), it's clean, the food is good, and the service is awesome. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly. Definitely a plus as I had my infant entail. I'd recommend the dirty wings, pizza, and Caesar salad. I'm sure they have other great items on the menu but I was too stuffed to even try. read more

This is the best "local" sports bar committed to St. Louis interest sporting events. Cards, blues, soccer and mizzou fb all rule. Great atmosphere. Excellent bar food and STL style pizza. Get there early, the monitored parking lot gets full quickly. Great location read more

Time tested fantastic bar food. I highly recommend the barbecue steak burger. This is a big hamburger grilled to perfection, dipped in barbecue sauce with a vinegar based coleslaw all slammed into a fantastic bun. The fried mushrooms are also great. The pizza is even good. The chicken wings are amazing. The beer is cold. The people watching is also pretty cool! read more

I was going to post a pic of our "Trash Wings", our sausage, onion, mushroom pizza, and our fried mushroom appetizers, but we ate them all before I got my camera out. This meal was fantastic!!! Good service, great food! read more

OB Clark's - What we ate - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

OB Clark's Restaurant is not only a great place to watch sports, it's also a great place to grab a lunch. We had been running errands and when we looked at the time, it was time to go to OB Clark's. They have specials every day during the week. We went on a Wednesday so the special of the day was pizza. He ordered a sausage pizza and it came with a side salad. I ordered the roast beef sandwich (dipped in gravy) and it came with a side salad. The salads were a good size and were very good. It actually had some shredded salami on top of it. I was able to try his pizza and that was good also. It has a very thin crust. My sandwich was outstanding and none of the fake roast beef. It was the real thing. He told me that on Thursdays the special was fried chicken. Hmm, I think I'll run my errands on Thursday the time. Would I come back here? Yes, I might try every day of the week. And that's the way it is. read more

The service is terrible. I don't want to amount it to race but my server yesterday afternoon started out the gate rude and acted like it was a chore to refill our cups or take anything off the table. The ONLY reason I come to this place is because my brother & his wife like to eat here. However the service yesterday is absolutely disgusting in 2023. Food is decent which is why my brother likes to come. However next time I go in there and I'm treated like a common peasant I WILL make sure it's handled right then and there. read more

Great bar with great service. No complaints here. When you walk in it's exactly what you would expect a bar with a decent menu. Drinks are cold and the wait staff make sure you are taken care of. Can't wait until I can sit out on the deck. read more

OB Clark's - Now that's a salad! - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

The absolute worst service EVER . Our server was Elise when asking what drinks she had she was rude and said what do you want and when when suggesting she said we don't have that then walked away. When asking for the check she was snobby and said no hold on. At the worst is that when asking how much a shot was she said if you're on a budget i can't help you. Just terrible service. She needs training on customer service read more

Clarks' puts on a show. Fast-paced, sports bar feel, with a hint of orange. All my visits have been jam-packed w/ quality people everywhere. Seasoned bartenders left and right. Sweet, outdoor patio, ready for action. Regulars take most of the crowd, but are not intimidating. DON'T stand at the door and wait to be seated. Please, FIND a spot, and they will take care of you promptly. The staff here has no sympathy for the passive type, so get some pep' in your step. The pizzas are square cut, very nicely. Cheese distribution holds the pie together. Wholesome & filling, side of ranch: EXCELLENT ! Chicken Wings are on point, and hold the right amount of sauce. You can order the wings "TRASHED", but apparently it takes 30-40min, so I will let someone take the splash for that experience. ***HUGE sports bar in the area. Looks like an office building, but serves as the rush-hour POWER. Take your friends, at no expense, and show them the Clarks' way*** read more

OB Clark's - WING PLAY - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

This place is amazing food is great and the service is great. Perfect place for a few friends to get together!

Such a great neighborhood bar! We love the wings but be prepared for a wait. They took about half an hour to prepare and were worth the wait. We also just tried the burger on our last visit and it was fantastic! Great place to watch a game! read more

Let me first start by acknowledging I've been coming here for over 10 years. I love everything about this place. From the pizza, wings, beers and the service. . Michelle, either the owner or manager, always makes us feel at home and welcomes the new regulars we constantly bring in. Our friend Sarah turned us onto the wings Extra sauced and tossed!! Hands down our favorite place to watch local Sports and meet new friends. This place has become our go to. Michelle even signed our tab after we mentioned we saw her on the local news station. 5STAR read more

OB Clark's - She even autographed my check when asked. - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

One of the best sports bars in town. Not a chain. Decent food. Casual vibe. No politics. Good enough for me.

Just what you want in a sports bar. Plenty of tv's, good food and cold beer. We were in on a Sunday to watch an NFL game. The bar area was already packed. Definitely a neighborhood feel. We seated ourselves and were approached right away. Mollie was attentive, checked back often and timely. We had lunch and beers. Two chef salads, chicken noodle soup and french onion soup. Salads were good, fresh and cold. Soups were tasty and hot. We will frequent this bar whenever we want to watch a sporting event. read more

Great food. Great bar only beat out by the staff and owners Great place to catch up with friends and co-workers. Just try it. read more

I like the vibe. Good wings. Drink beer . I'd like to leave a review on the bathroom: It was missing the mirror. How am I supposed to fix my iconic look with no mirror? In the end I prevailed and bashed my wings. Yum try it. read more

Wow, everyone was crabby, in here. Terrible attitudes from everyone working there. And well, yes, I'd be embarrassed to serve the food there, too. Our waitress was a total jerk the whole night. She slammed our drinks on the table. Carelessly slid plates and bowls across the table. Disappeared. The food was bad. I got chili and a side salad. The chili was flavorless, and it was less than warm, which is pretty gross. I asked if I could have hot chili, and I swear she was cussing as she walked away. The salad was brought out with cheese, when I asked for no cheese, also. My boyfriend got a Reuben and fries. The reuben was so salty! It was disgusting. He sent it back for a BBQ steak burger. That was way overcooked, but edible. I mean, really, I'm not sure why we stayed or tipped, but we endured it. Not going to be back. read more

The food is always good, especially pizza and taco salad. The staff is very friendly and service is great. I recommend after hockey and concerts! read more

I came in alone and was approached by a server who regularly helps me, she was shockingly rude and short with me and usually fairly nice (most likely due to tipping, I tip big as I used to be a server, like seriously on average 40-60%). My friend joined me and the server was so absolutely hateful to my friend, I was like whoa!!! I told my friend she must be having a bad day. It got worse, at least 3 more hateful incidents so bad that in my mind, I b-slapped her. My friend was paying and naturally only tipped her $5 instead of $10 because honestly she deserved NOTHING! Then this server came to our table and screamed, "This is it? $5 dollars? This is it? I wanted to tell her, she should have paid us for the terrible and demeaning experienc. This mentally unstable 20/30 year old does not need to work with humans. I will NEVER return! read more

Great food great service great ambiance makes this the best sports bar in STL. Get there early on game weekends because it fills up fast.

Been awhile but finally made it back here. Beers were cold, dirty wings were awesome but the service was terrible. The waitress was not inept, she was just lazy and more interested in sitting at the bar drinking her energy drink and looking at her phone rather than take care of her guests. It's not rocket science. Check on us every 10-15 minutes. Check back 2minutes after our food is delivered do you can check on food quality, additional requests and drink refills. I shouldn't have to go looking for you - it was ridiculous. read more

Stay away! Boring bar food and terrible service. Steak sandwich has too much fat and gristle. I spit a lot of that in my napkin. Wait staff was not attentive at all. I left a 10% tip out of obligation. I won't be back. Too many other options that are outstanding in this area. Good luck. read more

This is our go to spot - wings are INCREDIBLE - get the dirty wings extra crispy. Hockey bar - neighborhood bar - sports bar. It's a great spot to bring a family or watch a game with friends. The pizza is also notable. Beer is cold and servers are seasoned professionals read more

A cool, little, neighborhood sports bar that borders on "divey"....a little too dark for my taste, but who cares when they have excellent food. I tried the wings and roast beef dip. So good that I took more wings to go. To boot, the bartender's service was on point and that is something I seriously judge a place on, after spending almost 15 years in the food/beverage industry. She orchestrated that busy bar like a seasoned maestro. Even though it's a far trek from where I live, I will be back due to a great experience!!! read more

Went there yesterday afternoon. Wasn't crowded, and plenty of staff there. We sat for 10 minutes. Not a single staff person acknowledged us, but they kept looking at us so they knew we were there. We got up and left, and don't care to go back. Not sure what happened to this place but having staff ignore customers is not good practice! read more

I am a Cole slaw snob. Awesome Had wings here in the past, very good! Had Reuben tonight, also good Service is spot on Enjoy! read more

This pizza is so good definitely one of the best places to get St. Louis St. Louis style pizza in the service is amazing. They have really nice prices and a lot of beer apparently. I always get their pizza before I go to the gym have a few slices and then I come back and look forward to finishing the rest off. Sometimes even even bring the pizza to the gym in a Ziploc bag. I haven't dug my teeth into the salad yet but I just know that I'm gonna love it and the ranch looks spectacular I'm wondering if it's homemade. The crust is sweet which is a really good thing I think it taste delicious. It's also really fast order pick up from so if you don't wanna spend too much money you want some good classic food and you need it really fast for some reason I would definitely recommend going here because it usually takes less than 20 minutes for sure. I live in Brentwood forest and I could basically walk there on my hands and if I still have my moped before it got stolen I could also use that. If you see a red moped anywhere please respond to this post. It looks like there's a lot of Greek life activity there, A lot of young people and graduates. read more

I've been here a few times now but never got around to reviewing the place. This is an old-style sports bar. Smaller TVs above the bar, dark, a bit loud when full and indifferent service. I took a table full here for lunch and decided to follow the crowd when it came time to order. A waitress had just walked by with a steaming bacon cheeseburger for the table next to us and all but one of us asked for the same. I deviated slightly and went for the clam chowder instead of fries. My clam chowder was pretty good but a little thin and peppery. It really hit the spot given that I had been out in the weather for a few hours before lunch. Not sure I've ever seen large slices of onion in a clam chowder but it worked. My burger was very good. Juicy and well seared on the flat top. The bacon was crunchy but had that distinctive curliness that indicated it had been deep fried instead of cooked on the flat top. It added a great smokiness to the sandwich. They put American cheese on the burger. I'm an American through and through but that doesn't mean I like the cheese we feed to children to get them used to eating cheese. Had I know that was going to appear on my sandwich I would have asked for cheddar or something with more flavor. This is a STL favorite and has been for years. read more

OB Clark's - Friday fish! - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

The best sports bar in STL. Wayne Gretzky called it the best Hockey Bar. The staff and management are incredible. As a regular, love their Wings and Pizza. Congrats to the O'Brien's and wish them continued success. read more

Never understood why OB Clarks's is always crowded- the pizza is just OK (at best), it's smokey (even in the non-smoking section) and the d-bag factor is usually pretty high. Then again, this is one of the only restaurants in Brentwood that stays open past 9 pm and its proximity to Brentwood Forest automatically makes this place succeptable to douchebaggery. Last night was no exception. Our waitress was especially uninterested in taking our order or getting us our tab. She was more concerned with having a smoke with her friends at the table next to us. The pizza was fine- nothing fab but I like how it comes out in a square pan. We finished off a large (which costs $1 more than a small) in less than 10 minutes. It actually took longer to get our check! Meh, i don't know why I eat here because it's nothing special. read more

OB Clark's - Sports Bars Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Great place nearby my soon to be condo! Salads were fresh and big and wings are amazing! I had a chicken salad and dirty wings and it was a great lunch. Our waitress was nice and service was quick! I was in and out in no time. I enjoyed my time here and I can't wait to become a regular! read more

Good wings & $5 5 day O'fallon IPA pints were both very much apprecieated. The place is a big open room with a 4 foot (?) wall running down the center to seperate the bar & dining area. Smokers were crowding the back deck. Overall, weird dive/restaurant feel that makes me not sure what about the place. I think they are trying to be a "Dive Irish Sports Bar & Restaurant"... IDK. But, it is a bar with good wings, IPA and TVs and that means A-OK in my book. read more

I've been frequenting OB Clark's for many, many years. It's a great local joint with smiling faces, decent standard bar food, at decent prices. There's a dude that has been serving here for some time... I think his name is John. He easily keeps up with the drunken crowds, and offers no frills, yet attentive service. Kudo's to you John. It's typical to hear someone that gets drunk enough yell out "Let's walk to Double D's to sing"... DD's is a karaoke bar just down the street. But I find myself wanting to go to OB Clarks to watch Blues games. They promote themselves as a Blues hockey bar. In fact, KMOX does a postgame show here on Saturdays when the Blues are at home. Hell, I've even seen a Blue or two drinking here. But when we stopped in this past Saturday to watch the end of the game, the Blues game was on the two worst positioned TVs (they have tons of TVs now). We ponied up to a table towards one end. The other TV's were showing college football. I get it... there was a pretty important college game on... Notre Dame vs FSU. However, the sound and center TV was tuned to the Nevada vs. BYU game. Who the hell cares about this game? ...and how do you call yourself a Blues hockey bar but give the home team second billing to out of town teams. OB's... I'll be back. I appreciate your neighborhood feel. I enjoy the calamity that is the weekend crowds here. Your bar food is good... this past time I got the blackened grouper and loved it. But your draw is that you are one of the few hockey bars in STL. Don't forget who your are and why people are coming in the door. If I can't count on a good Blues hockey experience here, I'll probably head down to the Post in Maplewood. read more

Love this place! The beer is cold and the food is great and the staff is super friendly! Who could ask for more??

I've been here twice, but it was a really long time ago. October 5, I went with friends for a late-ish dinner. We'd all been at a book-signing at the Brentwood Forest Clubhouse -- nearby. There were four of us. The place was jam-packed, parking was challenging. And there were "guys" outside monitoring parking. So, I asked, "Big party going on inside?" Answer: "No. About 25 off-duty cops are havin' a meal." Works for me. Ambiance was festive and loud. I was the first to arrive, so I snagged the only available table in the "dining room." It was a round for 5-6 persons. We were four. Who cares? We had a good server. She was friendly, knowledgeable and knew about the food. #1 got the open-face roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. #2 got the open-face roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. #3 got a patty melt with fries. I got a Reuben without bread and opted out of the fries for cole slaw. I'm gonna say this ONE TIME ONLY -- the servings are MASSIVE!!! To wit: the open-face roast beef sandwich was on a platter. Four pieces of Texas toast under two mountains of roast beef. In the middle of these mountains was a volcano of mashed potatoes. Everything was covered with gravy. It was a beautiful presentation -- for a family of four. My Reuben was spectacular, and the chef had the insight to serve the sauce on the side, so things didn't get soggy -- there not being any bread. That worked perfectly. I cut and dunked and ate. The meat was so flavorful and tender, melted cheese, tangy sauerkraut. And the sauce was a good combo for a perfect Reuben. The cole slaw was vinegar-based, so tangy and delicious with crunchy cabbage and carrots. That's what cole slaw IS. BUT, THIS COLE SLAW dressing took it over the top with a little more tang and a little more sweet. #3 got the short end of the stick. Her patty melt was a lot greasy, and the fries were uninspired. She offered me a fry, and I declined. All throughout this meal, our server was attentive, refilling beverages, and asking about the meal. I took home two more meals with my Reuben, sauce and slaw. I got somebody else's slaw, too, though I don't know how that happened. #1 and #2 took home enough food for the neighborhood. We had a delightful time. read more

I used to hang out here in my 30's. I'm 50 now and decided to return. Bad service always wrecks a meal. The waitress (tall blonde) needs to not just be nice when the bill comes. You can cop a smile when I ask for a refill or some more napkins. You can even acknowledge I've asked for a refill by saying, "sure I'll be right back" instead of turning on your heels and making me wonder if you even heard me. To the owner/manager or whoever the guy was that was stopping at tables asking how everything was. If you're going to do that, do it to the entire restaurant, not just 2 tables. I would have had something constructive to say. To the kitchen I say: when I order well done wings and they are perfect, and the next time I order them again the exact same way, and they come out with slimy soft skin, it bugs a girl. Also, nothing is grosser than very less than fresh lettuce in a salad too. Watch for that please. I will try again. I will report back too, it's only fair. read more

The offer of curbside or indoor pick up made this a 5 star experience. The regular hot wings are always amazing! Thanks for still giving great service and food during Covid . I'll definitely recommend! read more

Hmmmm I really wanted to write a good review... This was my first time at OB Clark's. On a scale from 1 to 10 = 6 was as good as it got. Food was good, not great. Poppers were very bland and served with salsa? Our waiter had NO personality, he did the absolute minimum to get buy. TOO 'busy' to be nice. The staff were like the walking dead - never smiled or made eye contact. Doubt I'll go back. read more

Good place for some cheap buckets of beers and tons of view of the game. The salad was standard stuff, which is fine. Blackened fish was "OK" from my tablemates. OB Clark's "restaurant" really isn't the place I go for food, but its a nice little joint for sporting events and beers, that's certain... However, the Dirty Wings....or something to that effect.... were awesome. Spicy and flavorful - not dry. Very good bar fare. read more
