The Hottest Hookup Bars in St. Louis [PHOTOS]

Westport Social
(910 West Port Plaza Drive, westportsocial-stl.com)

Come for the drinks and the games, stay for the casual hookup vibe. Westport Social offers a steady stream of people in and out all night — so you can easily find some "in and out" all night here, too.

Nick’s Pub
(6001 Manchester Avenue, nicksirishpub.com)

Nick’s is probably St. Louis’ hookup headquarters. People come here to drink and maybe pick up a little something extra. It’s a 3 a.m. bar so people start to pair off around 2 a.m.

Blueberry Hill
(6504 Delmar Boulevard, BlueberryHill.com)

This family-friendly joint might seem like a weird place to find a new special friend, but the bar is always crammed full of neighborhood locals who are hot to trot and have beds within blocks of the place.

John D. McGurk’s Irish Pub and Garden
(1200 Russell Boulevard, mcgurks.com)

All of Soulard is a meat market, but McGurk’s is the best place to go if you want to get slutty. Something about that big, beautiful courtyard just makes the romance flow.

Armory STL
(3660 Market Street, armorystl.com

Most young people prefer to find their next hookup on an app, where the selection is huge. But if you’re young and you like to see your next mate in person first, the Armory is the place to be.

Molly’s in Soulard
(816 Geyer Avenue, mollysinsoulard.com)

The fantastic back patio at Molly’s in Soulard is Hookup City in the summer when fun-seeking St. Louisans come out to get a taste of the neighborhood.

Just John Club
(4112 Manchester Avenue, justjohnclub.com)

The room is dark. The music is loud. The people are the perfect amount of sweaty. This LGBTQ+ bar is the perfect place to find Mr. Right For The Night.

Club Viva
(408 North Euclid Avenue, clubvivastl.com)

It’s easy to transition to horizontal dancing after you’ve been doing it vertically all night. People come to Club Viva to dance and then maybe do a little solo tango later in bed.

’ssippi
(2926 Cherokee Street, ssippi.xyz)

If you’re looking to hook up with a hipster, check out ‘ssippi. In addition to not using proper capitalization in its name, this place is a “Cherokee Street natural wine bar.” So hip.

Cinder House
(999 North 2nd Street, fourseasons.com)

Located on the rooftop of the Four Seasons by the Arch, the bar at Cinder House will serve you high end cocktails with a fabulous view that serves as an aphrodisiac. Strictly for the grown and sexy, this bar also has the advantage of being in a hotel, so there are always available beds nearby.

Rehab Bar and Grill
(4054 Chouteau Avenue, rehabstl.com)

Rehab is the perfect bar to visit if you’re feeling like a daytime hookup. Though open at night, this place is poppin’ all day long and often hosts drag shows and other entertainment.

Ballpark Village
(601 Clark Avenue, stlballparkvillage.com)

The drinks flow, the crowd is young and nobody has any issues here with having a full make out session in public. If you’re young and hot, you can clean up at Ballpark Village.

1 Nite Stand
(2800 Ohio Avenue, 314-776-0996)

The reason to visit is right there in the name of the bar. This seedy karaoke joint has a stripper pole on site and all manner of people ready to meet a new friend and get down.

Hacienda Mexican Restaurant
(9748 Manchester Road, haciendastl.com)

This bustling (and massive) Mexican restaurant has been a part of the St. Louis food scene for decades, but did you know that it’s also known as a place where older folks are always finding a hot hookup? Must be the margaritas.

Ameristar Casino
(1 Ameristar Boulevard, St. Charles; ameristarstcharles.com)

Divorced moms need love, too, and if you want to help out a newly single woman who is just finding her way out in the world again with a little lovin’, there’s always a selection to choose from in the bars at the Ameristar Casino in St. Charles.

Maggie O’Brien’s
(2000 Market Street, maggieobriens.com)

It’s nothing special, but this Irish bar is the perfect place to find a hookup downtown after a big hockey or baseball game. It’s crowded, the drinks are cheap for downtown and the guests are usually amped up and ready to get down.

Fortune Teller Bar
(2635 Cherokee Street, 314-776-2337)

This is the perfect place to find a person if you want to hook up but you aren’t very smooth. After you’ve bought your future hookup a drink, you can buy them a tarot reading, too, and ask the stars if you’ll wake up together.

Big Daddy’s
(1000 Sidney Street, bigdaddyssoulardbar.com)

Soulard is one of the best neighborhood in St. Louis for hookups and Big Daddy’s is one of the most classic hookup bars in town. Everybody is there for just one thing, and that’s oddly refreshing.

HandleBar
(4127 Manchester Avenue, handlebarstl.com)

Not a place for the old and not a place for the too young, HandleBar in the Grove is one of the best places to hit up if you’re 30 or so and you’re looking to mingle.

Bones French Quarter
(14766 Manchester Road, fqstl.com)

If you’re feeling thirsty out in West County, skip on in to Bones French Quarter where it’s always a party and the customers are pretty much universally DTF.
