Located next door to the new St. Louis Police Department headquarters in downtown St. Louis, The Precinct is a welcoming neighborhood bar and grill with great food and drinks.  At The Precinct, we honor the men and women who protect and serve St. Louis - our police and first responders. Our menu items reflect a fun sense of style with dishes such as the ""Hot Pursuit Wing Challenge."" As a favorite local restaurant, we cater to both eclectic and American tastes, and of course we also have a wide selection of domestic and imported beers as well as cocktails.  And it never hurts when the top place in town to watch your sports teams on TV is owned by one of St. Louis' own sports legends - Jim Edmonds. Come share some wings and good times with all of us at The Precinct. We can't fix your traffic ticket, but we can fix terrific food and drinks.  St. Louis native, Chef Ben Welch, began his culinary career over 20 years ago as a dishwasher at Webster Groves' Two Nice Guys.
