The Broadway Oyster Bar is a locally owned and operated establishment and has been for over 35 years. The Oyster Bar is widely regarded as the premier New Orleans' style restaurant, bar and music venue in the Midwest. BOB, as it is affectionately known by its many fans and friends, is housed in a building that was built in the mid 1840's and is one of the oldest buildings still in daily use within the city of St. Louis. During its colorful history, our building has had many functions including a family home, a boarding house, a Chinese laundry, a record store and a bordello to name a few. These walls have heard and seen it all. Some people feel that the building is haunted by spirits who, occasionally late at night, play good hearted jokes on the staff such as doors suddenly opening or closing or lights going on or off as if by magic. Then again, it just could be because the building is over 170 years old. However, our historic building has just gone through a renovation so we now have two outdoor patios that are covered and heated during cold or rainy weather and an expanded kitchen to better serve you. Our food has won numerous awards and readers' polls for excellence and features some of the most sustainable seafood available such as fresh Gulf and Blue Point oysters, Louisiana crawfish and shrimp, Prince Edward Island mussels, scallops and crabs. Our Cajun and Creole dishes are our versions of many of the traditional Louisiana favorites. If you love New Orleans, you will feel right at home at BOB. BOB offers live music twice a day every night of the week except on Friday when we feature one act for the evening. We present the best local and national touring acts representing a variety of musical genres such as rock, reggae, bluegrass, blues, funk, R&B, roots, and jam, and weshowcase a wide variety of bands visiting from New Orleans. The live music is free up to 8 times per a week. However, for some of the more popular and well known acts, we do charge a cover which typically goes to the bands in order to keep attracting them to the BOB. Broadway Oyster Bar has been referred to by many as a staple of St. Louis and was recently honored by the St. Louis Chapter of the Missouri Restaurant Association as the 2015 Restaurant of the Year. BOB is a great choice for a relaxing dinner, a celebratory party or an opportunity to dance to a great band. As well known food writer, the late Joe Pollack, once wrote, "There is, quite simply, nothing in St. Louis quite like the Broadway Oyster Bar". That line was written over 30 years ago, but it is as true today as it was then. Welcome to the Broadway Oyster Bar Family.

    Proposed to my girlfriend in one of the chalets and it was the most romantic dining we’ve ever had. The food was absolutely incredible and our server Joe was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable and fun! The Ameretto Cream Pie was the best dessert we’ve ever had!!! Absolutely recommend this place to anyone and everyone!!!

    Let me just say, I was very anxious about this brunch meal because I could not find a menu. However It was not needed. While I may not have chosen the dishes on a traditional menu, Rated TK doesn’t give you a chance to decide. And I like that. They sit you down and take your worries away. Best brunch I have ever had. 4 courses and every portion felt like full size. I did forgot names (I’m a week late) but the staff was very nice and worked very well together. Thank you!! Not pictured Brioche bread pudding. 2nd best dish.

    Invited a group out during a conference. We intentionally had plenty of time. The bartender/server was solo on a quiet Tuesday dinner service; she was quick with drinks attentive. The chef was accommodating of an allergy in our group.
