Visited May 23. Decent vibe: bar inside with brick and wood, traditional Biergarten outside, we opted for inside given it was warm. Beer selection is mostly German styles: helles, zwickel, pils, doppelbock and the like. Excellent beers all around, but narrow focus on styles - despite being my fav styles- does obviously limit selection score. Service was good, very helpful and accommodating for us out of towners. A great visit to a great brewery.

Great food if you like pizza. Great German beers. Communal tables for that biergarden feel. Staff are helpful and fun, but no table service.
Loud, especially with crowds, but that's what they are going for.
Cab it, because parking is an issue.

Vibe is awesome. Nice brick walls, exposed ceilings, cool space with a nice bar. Smallish insides seating area, but lots of room outside in the beer garden. Beer Garden is lovely. Awesome space to spend an evening drinking beer with friends.

Qaulity is great - they have full pours and tasting flights for reasonable prices. Food is also reasonably priced.

Bartenders/staff is friendly and helpful. If its slow they are happy to chat about beer.

Selection is great, They have roughly 15 of their beers on tap at any time. Also have a pretty expansive selection of their beers in bottles/sampler packs.

Food is awesome. Seriously everything I've had there was really good and paired beautifully with their beers. Their cuban sandwich is excellent.

Overall a must stop place in St. Louis. Urban Chestnut definitely has the best brick and mortar locations of any of the major craft brewers in St. Louis. I'll be stopping in here pretty often.

I visited this brewery with my family on a rainy and cold Saturday afternoon. The bar was crowded due to a beer bus tour, but the staff was friendly and there was plenty of seating. Unfortunately, the heat was not working, which made for a 'cold' environment. Still, the food was exceptional...German inspired foods. I loved the pork, liverwurst, pickled vegetable and cucumber salad. It was truly interesting and tasty. The beer from this brewery is absolutely remarkable. I had a Dusseldorf Alt that was outstanding. Small, but worth a visit.

Went for lunch on a Thursday, so didn't get to sit outside in the garden (it would have been too hot anyway), but the interior is a very nice space with probably 15 UCBC beers on tap. The warm pretzel is incredible and the cheese plate is huge.

This is a must stop place if you are in St Louis. The beer is German-style and authentic. I enjoyed the best German Pilsner that I have ever had in my life at this place. The vibe is cool and laid back and there is plenty of seating. Plenty of parking out. Biergarten in the back with lots of seating. Every beer that I tried was amazing at this place. The food is excellent and German based as well. The next time I am in St Louis, I will make sure that this is my first stop.
