Things To Do
Sportsmans Park Restaurant & Bar
FRIDAY OR SATURDAY AFTERNOON One of Ian's favorite spots for a casual lunch and a beer! Quick Uber from the Ritz. Lots of cute shopping within walking distance after lunch - Mister Guy, Sallie Home, Outdoors, Service Bureau, Giddyup Jane, and Vie.
The Hill
FRIDAY OR SATURDAY AFTERNOON Historic Italian neighborhood with family-owned delis, sandwich shops and bakeries. Our favorites: -Adriana's on the Hill (try the Mary's Special!) -Milo's Bocce Garden (make sure to look for Joe Ciapciak's name on the list of hooligans who "Drank the Wall" in the 1980s!) -Missouri Baking Company
Forest Park
SATURDAY MORNING 1300 acre urban park - one of the largest in the nation! Great for a morning run, round of golf on the public course, or afternoon stroll. We pick up coffee and walk Forest Park every time we are in St. Louis!
