Category 23 Brewing - St. Louis

This place has the best wing specials every day! The service is great, especially when it’s not too crowded in the evenings. It’s also a really fun spot to grab affordable drinks late at night. Definitely my favorite dive bar in the area!

I ordered takeout and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes, but it actually took around 25. That’s okay, though—I wouldn’t expect a fresh meal to be prepared that quickly. I got the blackened mahi sandwich with chips. The sandwich was tasty, and the lime mayo was fantastic. The chips were quite salty, but I still enjoyed them. Considering the price, the portion size and quality met my expectations.

The drinks were served in large tumblers filled with crushed ice, which was a nice touch, although the only soda options available were Pepsi products. There was a peculiar odor in the restaurant, and our waitress seemed a bit curt with us today. Additionally, the bathroom was out of toilet paper, and I noticed that both the floor and stairs leading to the second level were uneven.

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!

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.
