Matt will take a look at the comments when he gets some time and working WiFi.

Chicago after or before??

Titus Hein

Holy shit. They weren’t lying when they said Matt was going on an expedition!

Stella Leicht

1. Toasted ravioli 2. (Controversial) Imo's Pizza 3. The arch.

Gungy

The zoo/art museum in Forest Park are free and both very worth it!

Daniel

Have some toasted ravioli, AKA t-rav, a dish St. Louis is famous for. Most Italian restaurants have it and there are a lot of good ones in STL: Trattoria Marcella, Anthonino's Taverna, Cafe Napoli are a few I can vouch for. The Hill neighborhood has a bunch of them. The Arch has a nice museum (renovated in 2018) and you can ride to the top. It's cool if you like engineering, history, architecture, and crowds (sometimes). Ted Drewes has good, inexpensive frozen custard and crowded parking. Not a St. Louisan so a proper St. Louisan can give better suggestions I'm sure...

Patsy Baloney

The Delmar Loop is an eclectic strip near Wash U that has a good variety of shops, restaurants, bars, and entertainment. Pappy's Smokehouse downtown for premier St. Louis style BBQ. Crown Candy for the BLT and milkshake.

Mike Hodgson

Side Project Brewing Cellar for fancy beer / whiskey

The City Museum of St. Louis is great if you’re looking for some offbeat fun and unusual artistic expression. Edit: just don’t get St. Louis pizza, lol.

If you're in the CBD, Three Sixty for a fancy drink and nice view of the city, Small Batch Whiskey and Fare nice place to visit, Schlafly Tap Room for a great beer. Salt n Smoke for a BBQ fix. Tick Busch Stadium and the Gateway Arch if you must. Lafayette Square is nice to visit. Yes the Italian restaurants on "The Hill" are a thing - perhaps a little overrated. Great craft beer culture everywhere though...

Nathan

I’d say definitely try some STL style pizza, if for nothing else because it is so controversial. Also a great spot for food and drinks is Polite Society Restaurant and Bar. I’ve seen it recommended already so I would second checking out the Delmar loop, among many other things suggested here!

My band Papadosio is playing at a venue called the Hawthorn on Friday the 15th. I'll put your name on the guest list +1 right now and if you feel like showing up go for it! If not all good no worries man. We're pretty psychedelic and have a wild light and video show, it's usually a good time. I get in on Thursday, hope you have a great time in STL

KBDaxio

Skip it?

We have an excellent city park called Forest Park that he should at least drive through. It has free Zoo and free art museum. He should check out one of the breweries, I second Schlafly Tap Room, or maybe the Anheiser Bucsh tour. He should try IMOs pizza. We are one of the only cities with our own pizza style. Salt + Smoke and Sugarfire are our main BBQ chains. Going up the arch would also be cool. Finally, he basically wants to avoid the entire northern half of the city. It's more complicated than that, but as a tourist, that's roughly the case.

Christy Kilgore

El Burro Loco for Mexican, Pappy's for BBQ, Small Batch for whiskey. And everyone needs to quit recommending STL-style pizza! The boys think little enough of the US already!

Mike

Jazz St. Louis is a good spot for music. Also BB's or Broadway Oyster Bar depending on who's playing. Missouri Botanical Garden is enjoyable. Forest Park has a lot to do. Soulard/Benton Park, Central West End, the Loop and the Hill are all good neighborhoods to visit. One of the breweries like Urban Chestnut, Rockwell, or 4 Hands might be a good spot for a meetup since they have lots of tables and you just order from the bar so no figuring out tabs.

Professor Matt

Hi all! Great to see we have some St Louis people in DTG-world! The place we’d booked and paid for turned out to have vanished in a puff of smoke! So booking.com gave us 50% off our emergency booking so we thought “screw it, let’s get the Hilton”. So I’m here decompressing after the long drive. Tomorrow night seems very promising for catching up for anyone who’s interested. I think we already have two takers — Mike and Pavlo. Christy also perhaps? Should I look at those suggestions and just make a captain’s call on the place and time? Just reply here to confirm if you’re in!

Absolutely recommend the City Museum!! Aussie here with StL husband. We have taken the kids here for many years and it's a must every time we visit. Just a few weeks ago I was with a group of teens who promptly disappeared into the crazy tunnels not to be seen till hours later. I wondered and explored with news eyes. “In 1993, artist Bob Cassilly purchased what would become City Museum, an eccentric, and inimitable, St. Louis gem. Originally, the Washington Avenue warehouse was home to the International Shoe Co. Later, Washington University used it. Cassilly saw potential in the 600,000-square-foot building and embarked on an ambitious plan: to build a museum that never stopped construction. He first opened its doors 25 years ago but continued to work with a team of 15 people known as the “Cassilly Crew” to bring his dream to life even as the museum’s reputation grew. Cassilly and his crew masterfully turned salvaged materials, like a vault from the former First National Bank and abandoned airplanes, into attractions for kids and adults alike to climb in, on and over. Over the years, Cassilly collected nearly 30,000 pieces of old machinery and other bits to include in the museum. The word “museum” sometimes throws people off, because City Museum more closely resembles a giant jungle gym. But, for former Cassilly crew member Dave Blum, it makes perfect sense. City Museum is like a house of inspiration made out of parts of a city — and that's the reason he called it a museum.” The place is crazy unsafe and that’s part of the appeal. Injuries and panic are part of the experience. The endless tunnels, crawling spaces and suspended metal tubes appear everywhere and disappear to levels and places unknown. They weave inside and out, go deep into dark places and soar stories above the ground. There are no safety nets. Children get lost. Adults get stuck. There are tears. There is pure joy and happiness. There is relief when you make it out of a tunnel. There’s a school bus suspended off the roof. It’s total chaos. Yet in the quiet corners there is still so much to discover. The seasoned visitors wear knee pads and headlight torches. There's erotic art hidden in dark spaces. I have no idea how this place is allowed to operate but I’m glad it does. We need more City Museums. And because we were lucky enough to visit close to Halloween, the City Museum totally took its macabre to even greater heights. Its open till 9pm Friday and Saturday (closed Monday and Tuesday) has a bar and is truly a one off experience. As for the rest of StL, It's sadly a city without a city. Most other worthwhile places have already been mentioned. CWE has awesome architecture, recommend just wandering. If you do find yourself in the CWE stop by the Cathedral Basilica. The mosaics are insane and rival any church in the world. I'm not religious but the art is testimony to man's creativity https://cathedralstl.org/about-basilica/museum-and-tours. Finally for a good pic of the Arch, I recommend crossing the river to East StL... Mississippi River Overlook in Malcolm W. Martin Memorial Park. Finally head to Cherokee St for good mexican. Seek out Birria taco's on the menu. Good luck

Professor Matt

OK so I’m confirming Jazz St Louis 6pm Friday night! Just look for the guy with the frizzy Gandalf hair

Professor Matt

So just seeing that Jazz St Louis *opens* at 6pm. So perhaps 6pm is an un-cool-y early time to go? In any case I won’t change the time because it might cause confusion

Professor Matt

Thanks for a great night everyone! What a cool live performance and an awesome venue. Hope everyone pulled up OK!

chuckboy

Please post when you hit Chicago! (I’m assuming that’s coming up soon)

Kerena

Let us know if you're still swinging through Pittsburgh!
