Nice to come back to this place after 11 years. I was very impressed by the "new" expansion.

Best brewpub in St. Louis. Preferred their Pale Ale over the American Pale Ale, but both good. Haven't had a "bad" meal yet in a brewpub and this one certainly no exception.

I almost stayed in and had dinner in the hotel restaurant. But I'm very happy I made the effort to check out this place. They had a dozen beers on tap, whihc is more than many brewpubs around the country. I had the American Pale, Porter and Imperial Stout. All were very good.
The menu had some unusual choices - lamb and pot roast sandwiches. I'm very fond of pub grub, but it gets repetitive after a while. It was nice to see unusual choices. The lamb sandwich was excellent.

My wife and I went there on a Sunday evening. A musician was playing on a steel guitar, there were lots of tables, and we were seated at once. A very helpful and attentive waitress took our drink order (sixer sampler for me) and Grand Mariner for my wife. She ordered a Cesear Salad and I ordered a Steak and Mushroom Pie.
I was surprised when my "pie" turned out to be a bowl of stew with a big roll on the side. The salad was pretty mediocre. So the food gets a "so so".
But I was there for the beer. I finished the sampler and ordered a second, so I managed to taste all 12 beers currently on tap. There were three varieties of hefeweizen including a raspberry wheat. All were just average. The Pale Ale was decent as was the amber (#15). The Oatmeal Stout was good, and so were the Kolsch, Witbier, and Pilsner. The highlights of the evening were the Grand Cru (Belgian), India Brown, and Dry Hopped APA. All were above average.
So you go here for the beer, not the food. Combined with the excellent service, good music, and wide variety of beers this was a good visit.

Brought my family of five to the Tap Room for supper last week while visiting downtown St. Louis. It's not too far of a walk from the City Museum. The family was not very impressed. When the first thing the waitress says to you is, "I apologize in advance, it's very busy right now," you expect the worst but hope she strives to exceed her goal of poor service. Alas, she met her goal, it was poor. We had to flag her down anytime we needed anything, even twice to remind her, and never a stop to ask us how things tasted. Luckily, it was alright. The fish 'n' chips was pretty good. The grilled cheese for the kids left something to be desired. The six beers were all pretty good, not the best selection in the world but tasty and well made. I tried the sampler, including the signature pale ale, pilsner, 15 (at least I think it was 15), oatmeal stout, and both the American and German hefeweizens. The 15, brewed for their 15th anniversary, was complex and was my favorite. The pale ale was disappointingly in the English style. I was hoping for a whammo hoppy American style, but that's my problem not theirs. As an English, it was alright, nothing to write home about. The pilsner and oatmeal stout were both very nice. And I like hefeweizens, and these were good, but didn't knock my socks off.
All in all, if I was in the area, I'd come here again, alone, for the beer, but I wouldn't bring back my family or sit at a table due to the poor service and mediocre food. Simple as that.

The BEER is GREAT !! But the "tap room" completely SUCKS as a RESTURANT !! GO TO THE SCHLAFLY BOTTLEWORKS INSTEAD !! The food at the tap room is greatly overpriced, and is crappy... the service sucks, and they are pretty much in the middle of NOwhere (even though they are "downtown"). Not convient to anything... (in the middle of a bunch of warehouses) The Bottleworks however is AWESOME !! They have TOTALLY different (and much much better) food CHOICES !! Like I said don't get me wrong, I LOVE this brewery !! The beer is GREAT, the "taproom" just sucks... go to the "bottleworks" instead !!

I've been going to the Tap Room for over ten years. I really feel the place was better ten years ago but it's still pretty darn good today. Great seasonal beer selection so you always have something new or different to try. Very nice old renovated building in a quite somewhat rundown neighborhood. Cozy, quite and comfortable in some areas and you can party in other areas. Schlafly beers are very good and very consistent. You know when you get a glass or a bottle it's going to be just as good as the one you had someplace down the road. They usually have a cask which is always a plus. It's worth the stop when you're in town.

Stopped by before a Cardinals game and the place was very crowded for their Schlaffenfest. On their sampler they serve up the six year round beers. The oatmeal stout and pale ale were very good. The other four were good, but I prefer more flavor and aroma than these offered. We also tried the Grand Cru, Weiss, and Wit. All three were excellent. The fish and chips were outstanding as well. They are having a beer festival in September and are looking forward to returning to try their 40 styles of beers!

We stopped by after eleven hours in a car. Had the sampler. The Oatmeal stout was my favorite especially with the Sticky Toffee Pudding. Your stupid if you don't save room. Stay away from the hefe'. The barleywine will warm you right up! Why do they even make Budweiser?

The Hop Harvest was excellant; as was the Stout. I didn't see a list of what was available so I can't comment on the selection, but when I asked about seasonals, the waitperson just kept naming them off. Service was very good. They also have a full bar for non-beer-drinking tag-alongs.

MANY BEERS (APPROXIMATELY 10) DONE VERY WELL. APA ON CASK, HOP-N-RYE, AND HOP HARVEST ALL HIT THE SPOT. THEIR LIGHTER BEERS (HEFE, KOLSCH, PILS, AMERICAN LAGER) WILL SATISFY THE MASSES. THE BEST BREWERY IN ST. LOUIS AREA.

Eight or nine beers on tap. All I had were of great quality! The service is top notch and the food is always great. Not many place better than Schlafly's. If you are in St. Louis this is a must. Beer the way it should be!

Toatally great beer and a great selection as well. It is so enjoyable to walk into a brewpub that has nine beers on tap and two more on cask. I had the IPA and a stout, both were very well done.

It is hard to add to what others have already said. This is the best brewpub in St. Louis.
I visited on a saturday afternoon and by 5:30 the downstairs was packed. They had about eight beers on tap and two cask conditioned ales, a Pale Ale and a Stout. I had the cask Pale Ale and the normal Pale Ale and an APA. All were excellent. I introduced my friend to cask ale and he immediately picked up the difference--the cask ale has much more flavor. He had a Scotch Ale and really enjoyed it. If you are in St. Louis, a visit is a must.

Always a good selection of beer. They also have regular events: Cod and Cask Condition Ales Fest, Stout and Oysters Fest, etc. Without a doubt the best micro in the St Louis area.

I was at this location 8 or 9 years ago and swore I'd never go back. After reading the positive reveiws as of late, I thought I would give them another try while in Missouri for the holidays. I was there on 23 December 2004. The first thing I noticed was how knowledgeable the bartender was about their beer, the beer brewing process, and the difference in beer style--a nice thing to find at a brew pub!! I could overhear here discussions with the couple a few stools over and she spoke with wisdom and enthusiasm. That knowledge and the good service was a STARK change from my last visit there. I found the service to be attentive and pleasant (with the possible exception of the bartender on the bar side--in his defense he was doing the bar and the tables there). There were 12 beers on tap the day I was there: American Lager, hefewitzen, pilsner, pale ale, ESB, Belgian triple, schwartzbeir, porter, oatmeal stout (tap and cask, coffee stout, and Imperial stout. I found the porter to be especially nice. It had a very robust flavor yet was not sweet or particulary dry. The finish almost had a bourbon flavor.

All of their beers (I tried 8 of them) were at least solid. The pale ale seemed average, not enough hops, but the seasonal ESB was excellent...hoppier than the pale ale. I thought the tripel was exceptional, and my wife and I enjoyed lots and lots of the seasonal coffee stout and Imperial stout. Even the regular oatmeal stout was quite good. I'd have rated the beers as awesome if they'd have had a pale ale that was as memorable as their stouts. I really liked the atmosphere in the pub. I also thought the food was quite good, and they have a couple of imaginative selections that puts it a cut above the typical pub fare. I will definitely stop back here whenever I'm in St. Louis.

My favorite brewery in STL, hands down. Like the atmosphere at the taproom better than at Bottleworks, and the food is better here too. Schafly makes fantastic beer, always have. The only thing I would change is their distribution, I really wish I could by it in Cali- for now I just take as much back with me as I can carry.

Paul was excellent and full of info about the history and the beers. I had the sampler and the best two were the pale ale and the stout. The octoberfest was very different and i was told that it was due to the type of yeast. I then tried the Saison which by far was there best beer. The Wit and Hop harvest were also very good. I reccomend the cask conditioned Hop Harvest. The best brewery in St. Louis.

The beer was great, the food was great, and the service was efficient. The bartender wasn't a warm and fuzzy kind of guy, but he won't keep you waiting either. This is by far the best brewpub in St. Louis and the one you must go to if you're in town.

I had 4 beers: APA Cask-very smooth, hoppy, a little thin on the mouth. Overall very good.
Stout-very tasty, a little light and served too cold. Good beer
Barleywine-served at proper temp-sweet but drinkable. 16oz served for a high ABV beer-who's complaining? Very nice.
I had beef stew-great food on a cold night. This is a nice place with a great selection of brews.

Barleywine is a seasonal. It is long gone by May. Kolsch is the summer ale about that time of year. They're lucky enough to get their yeast from a brewer in Cologne. I like big beers too, but just because a place doesn't serve Barleywine year round...come on!

Seems like a great place to hang out to meet a group of people. I enjoyed the Stout and the Raspberry Hefeweizen. The Pale Ale could have been hoppier. Our food was nothing special, but this place was packed at lunch, so maybe we didn't make the best selections from the menu.
