Food Scene

Directly across the street from the apartment. Great sandwiches and sides. They specialize in smoked meats but their creative take on sandwiches is unique and delicious. They close early (3pm, normally) but the patio is usually full of locals and visitors.

Arguably, the best barbecue in St. Louis. During lunch, the lines can be a bit long but worth the wait.

Good food and quintessential Soulard atmosphere. You can catch live music here day and night. They have 3 separate areas: Saloon, Hardshell Cafe and Game Room. Pick whichever suits your mood and enjoy!

Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Not fancy but definitely not a dive. Have a nice lunch or dinner and watch the game on their numerous TV's.

A short distance outside Soulard proper but if you're looking for a nicer dinner, this is a great place. Has the eclectic feel of Soulard but the chefs' creations are definitely several notches above the standard bar fare of the neighborhood.

Right down the street and a great place for coffee and a quick to-go breakfast or for a sit-down-and-relax breakfast. They also serve beer and mixed drinks if a mimosa or bloody mary is what you need. Great food and friendly staff.

Just what the name says...really tasty pizza, subs and other items you'd expect to find a this type of restaurant. It's a walk-up-and-order establishment but your options are to eat in their place, outside, or place your order and go next door to International Tap House (iTap) and they'll bring your food to you (what I recommend!).

Soulard's iconic steakhouse is low-key and very unpretentious. If you want a great meal at a very decent price, Tuckers will take care of your needs. It's not fancy but definitely not a dive, just a neighborhood restaurant that specializes in steak and other grilled food.

iTap, as locals call it, has the largest selection of craft beers in St. Louis. They don't serve food but they're connected to Epic Pizza & Subs and Mission Taco...both will deliver to your table or bar stool. Walking distance from the apartment.

Probably St. Louis' most well-known Irish pub. Inside, you'll find an authentic, Irish pub atmosphere with live music in the evenings (often bands from Ireland) and one of Soulard's largest patios. They serve good food and definitely have plenty of drinks. Slainte!

A micro brewery that's anything but small on taste or quality. The atmosphere is amazingly friendly. They tout their "session beers" as beers to be enjoyed socially but they're far from boring. Definitely worth visiting if you like good beer.

Sightseeing

It's the Arch...go see it! If you've never been, it's definitely a must-see. Whether standing beneath it to look up and marvel at it's size or taking a ride up to the top and looking over Missouri and Illinois, it's a great experience. If you like to jog or walk, it's definitely close enough to visit without a vehicle. Otherwise, grab a cab or Uber and check it out.

Technically a park, but filled with sculptures, fountains, pools and other things to climb on, walk through and enjoy very hands-on. Kids love climbing on things but adults enjoy sitting in the park and enjoying the view of St. Louis this location offers.

A huge and beautiful botanical garden, nestled within the city limits. There is an admission fee but there are lots of different gardens to see and trails to walk. My favorite is the peaceful Japanese garden and my daughter loves feeding the fish in the koi pond. http://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/

Entertainment & Activities

Indescribably cool place! It's kind of for children but not really. It's the brainchild of an adult artist who took a huge, multi-story warehouse building and turned it into a giant art installation/jungle gym/museum. You can climb on things and slide down slides and ride on things and go in tunnels, behind walls, from floor to floor. It's truly an amazing place...one of St. Louis' not-so-hidden gems! http://www.citymuseum.org/
