The Scene – Somewhere between the earthly paradise of the Botanical Gardens and the culinary one of the Hill (it's 4652 Shaw Avenue, actually) can be found a little bit of the old sod in O'Connell's Pub. The patina of the bar's paneling, dark as the Guinness that has brimmed glasses since proprietor Jack Parker took up residence after the demise of Gaslight Square, puts one in mind of the Dublin of Joyce and Yeats. – – The Food – Patrons come to order one of the best burgers in town, thick and flavorful.

Good Burger, but a great man behind the bar...

I'm a visitor to St. Louis, so I decided to give O'Connell's a try for their famous burgers and maybe complement that with an Irish spirit.
The burgers are truly very tasteful, but what made my experience is Mike - the man behind the bar and truly the best bartender I've come across in St. Louis. He knew how to treat a customer and what to suggest especially when it comes to drinks - if you're not sure what to try, just leave it to Mike.
The question now is "how will I know it's Mike?" Well, just look for the guy who looks like Sam Elliot with silver hair and mustache standing comfortably behind the bar.
- Pros: Good price and excellent service (just ask for Mike)
- Cons: Limited parking space

- Pros: Good food, great burgers
- Cons: Terrible service

Eat-N-Shop:
Climb the stairs to Jack Parker Antiques to see the finest in late 19th and early 20th century paintings, Mission furniture and American Indian artifacts.
Non-Smokers Beware:
It's all smoking all the time, so if you don't like the scent of Marlboros lingering around your food, you may want to find somewhere else to get dinner.
