That organization needs leadership change. No one appears either to not care or just incompetent. What a hope for no delivery. I think some of the St.Louis news programs should do a deep dive into these guys. Ruining the Defiance commerce. No where to eat . Out of pizza, out of chicken, out of that. They should take as much time to work at their Defiance business as they do PUTTING SIGNS on their buildings. Fix it or go back to Florida.

If you're looking for the perfect spot for a date night, family outing, or just a relaxing…read moreafternoon, I can't recommend Good News Brewing in Defiance enough. It's hands down our favorite location! The wood-fired pizza is always delicious, and the beer selection is fantastic. My go-to is the Hazy 636, while my husband never passes up a Helias. We love bringing our boys (they love the mocktails), grabbing a pizza and a couple of beers, playing cards, and just slowing down together. The atmosphere is what keeps us coming back. There's a beautiful indoor space with garage doors that open up when the weather is nice, plus plenty of outdoor seating surrounded by the scenic beauty of Defiance. We've visited the St. Charles and Wildwood locations too, and they're both great, but there's just something special about the views and peaceful setting at the Defiance location that makes it our favorite. The service at all the locations have been top notch Whether you're stopping after a ride on the Katy Trail, planning a casual date, or spending time with family, this place never disappoints.

Good News Brewing in Defiance was a fun stop after the St. Patrick's Day parade. It was very busy,…read morebut we were still able to find a table and order food without too much trouble. The setup is casual--you order food and drinks at the register and then receive a text when your food is ready for pickup. When we went to grab our order, part of it was missing because someone else had accidentally taken it. The staff handled it well and quickly remade the missing items, which we appreciated. We ordered pizza, chicken wings, and a pretzel with cheese. Everything was pretty good and hit the spot after being out in the cold. The patio also had a live band playing, which created a really fun atmosphere. Overall it was a lively place with good food and a great vibe, especially on a busy event day.

The staff were all very friendly and welcoming--definitely looking forward to coming back.

Nice little bar attached to a meat market on the Katy Trail. I've only been on relatively slow days…read moreso not sure how it is when it's hopping. They have tvs to watch sports and food is ordered from the bar and picked up at a window nearby. I had wings which were a hot honey variety and I thought they were good. Just crispy enough and a good sized wing. The burger was also very good. Cooked with some pink inside still and I didn't even ask for it that way. The meat comes from their nearby farm says the bartender. Service is good. Met the owner lady who was very nice. All around good time for me.

Drinks are cheap and strong, just the way they should be! The bartenders and servers here are some of the most attentive I've seen--they're making drinks while serving tables, which is top-notch service you don't find at a lot of bars anymore. Karaoke on Friday nights is a thing, and they occasionally have live bands too. 4 stars because of the cigarette smoke. It's pretty heavy inside, and even after just a few minutes picking up takeout, you can end up smelling like smoke. It's the only place in Warrenton that still allows smoking, and with the building being so small, it can get overwhelming. That said, The Hideout is still a great spot for drinks, food, and fun!

Can a dive bar be cute? If so, The Lounge is a cute dive bar…read more It is simply decorated, compact in size and a welcoming atmosphere. I discovered, The Lounge because I arrived super early for a wine tasting at another business in the plaza. My friend and I were immediately won over, when we saw the bar dog. Her name is, Lucy. I liked that the front window is tinted so you cannot see in, but once inside you can clearly see the outside. If you like to play slots while you sip your inexpensive cocktail, The Lounge has about 4 or 6 machines for you to play. If you do, good luck. Best of all, the drinks are super affordable aka "cheap". The bartender was friendly to us being newcomers. Seeing the rest of the patrons at the bar and every stool was full, you could tell they were regulars at this neighborhood watering hole. If I'm ever back in the area, I'd definitely stop by for a cocktail.
