    Our group had reservations on Monday evening and the place was not packed. The cocktails were really good. I enjoyed the two that I had and tried several others at our table. Good drinks and the appetizers were just okay. I was glad to see that they had more choices than just Chex mix and cookies that some of the other bars offer. The ambiance was cute but was lacking that lit feeling of all Christmas lights sparkling. Disappointment that at our 2hr mark they wanted to shuttle us out for the next set of reservations. We would have kept drinking but we would have had to move to the bar when clearly, they had plenty of room with empty tables. Other than that it was nice to visit a NEW pop up bar this Holiday season.

    Nothing was great about Tinsel Tavern. The $10/pp admission price was so silly for this. The decor was no more than you'd see in a normal restaurant, our table was dirty, was the drinks were just ok. I'd been a few years ago when it was at Budweiser Brewhouse and this was a major let down. Service was fine but definitely didn't make up for what was missing.

    Ballpark Village is a very fun very happy drinking partying music food all the good stuff in life is here at the ballpark Village. They are located right next to the Busch Stadium which is the stadium or the St. Louis Cardinals plane. So when it's game day and there's a party going down at the ballpark Village it's a lot of fun for sure

    I attended a conference in St. Louis this summer and our opening night reception was at Ballpark Village. So, my experience isn't "typical" considering the Cardinals weren't playing but this was a fantastic venue! Ballpark Village is very spacious which made it perfect for the 1,000 or so conference attendees. There were open bars and food buffets everywhere, and it was really good food - sushi, salads, tacos, you name it. Service was prompt and friendly. Bonus - they had the Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum open and we got to explore that, too. I imagine it's exciting to watch a game on the big screen here!

    Cool atmosphere, literally. A little oasis on a hot day. Walkable from the arch if you're looking for a place to cool down.

    I was visiting St. Louis and wanted to to do something "touristy" and landed here. Cool place to people watch and take pictures. Went indoors and played ski ball which was fun. Drinks were pretty weak, but that's to be expected.

    This was a great restuarant, Super huge and super fun especially when the home team is winning. Great food and several bars.

    Sports bar on steroids that obviously caters to St Louis teams specifically the Cardinals MLB team. The Cardinals were playing out of town but the games was televised on the hugest TV I've seen in a double-decker sports bar. I noticed several places to eat with various cuisines available. Ordered a beer and found that they only serve Budweiser products but being the home brewery in town was not surprized. It appears to be a family place and kids are welcomed. I can not imagine what a pre or post game would be like if the Cardinal were in town. One thing I did notice was the metal detectors at the entrances and the security staff at every entrance. Not sure if that is a good thing or bad thing. Either way I would definitely go back.

    Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks... Ballpark Village is the best vantage point for pregame and post game libations. Try the two hotdogs and side for $11 and a 20 oz draft for $7. Not bad for ballpark prices! Go Cards!

    I've never seen anything like this anywhere. Right next to Busch Stadium, you'll find Ballpark Village - a huge sports themed dining and entertainment complex where Cardinal fans and dining customers flock to before, during and after the ball game. Check out this lineup of food and drink options - Budweiser Brew House, Cardinals Nation Souvenir Store, Drunken Fish (Sushi and Japanese), El Birdos Cantina (fast food Tex Mex), FOX Sports Midwest Live!, The Fudgery, Howl at the Moon (think high energy and dueling pianos), PBR St. Louis, Tengo Sed (Mexican themed bar restaurant), The Barn at PBR, The Lounge, and The Skybox. Incredible, isn't it? It's like a food court with alcohol on steroids

    Ballpark Village is the perfect spot to start your baseball experience. Great food and atmosphere for the entire family can enjoy. The MC got the crowd excited for the game and also gave out prizes. If you're looking for a place to grab food before a Cards game this is a must. I'm not even a Cards fan and still loved it!

    C'mon Cards.

    What a great place to watch a game (be it baseball, football, etc) especially when the Cardinals are playing out of town. I have only walked through here when there was a game in town (packed) and last night was my first time coming to watch a game. The service was great, the food was good(nachos) and the atmosphere was outstanding. When it got a little stuffy in there, the roof was opened. It doesn't matter where you look, there is a television. Even though the Cards lost, I would definitely come back. I can't wait to try some of the restaurants connected with it.

The main interior is huge and open with a stage, several bar and seating areas and large-screen TVs all around. Our special event package included all you could drink. There are a lot of drink options. The wine was not great but my boyfriend enjoyed the hard seltzers and we both enjoyed mixed drinks with Tito's and Deep Eddy's vodka. The people watching was very good. The live music was loud with room for dancing. I think if you came here to watch a baseball game on the big screens it would be a lot of fun.

We were told 25 minute wait but watched another party walk in and ask about the the tables outside that they were able to just sit down at. We asked about the other table and were told we could sit after waiting thirty minutes, not sure why they weren't using those tables to begin with and weren't asking if people wanted to sit inside our outside. Our waitress was just terrible. Took her forever to come to our table, we were ready when she finally showed up but would only take our drink orders. We heard her tell the other table as well who was ready to order they'd have to wait until she came back with the drinks. She also didn't come around to check on us and only offered the table next to us refills. A bus boy also passed our table asked to remove empty plates but left ours.
