Venice Cafe in Benton Park, St. Louis, is a cash-only gem that seamlessly blends a watering hole with a vibrant performance venue. The funky folk art and lively mosaics, both inside and outside, create an atmosphere that's as eclectic as it is welcoming. The wacky, goofy charm extends to the live music, playing from 9:00 pm to 1:00 am, Monday through Saturday. This vivid burst of color everywhere is everything I needed.
Venice Café is a unique artistic experience catering to all senses! You will love the Music which will get you up and dancing. We got to hear the Buttery Biscuit Band live enjoying some great blues covers. The mosaics will cater to sight and feel. Your choice in drink will get you smell and taste going too. This place is gem within all of St Louis!
Greatest bar ever. If you don't have fun here, book a therapist immediately. So fun. Art everywhere. If employees get sassy, reflect on yourself. It's you.
I don't drink but love hanging at this bar. That's a fun bar!
Awesome spot for live music! Great aesthetic inside and a nice outside area as well. It's cash only for the drinks, but they do have an ATM on-site. Will def frequent more often!
Love this place, if you’re visiting St Louis for the first time, this is DEFINITELY a go-to spot! It is CASH ONLY though, drinks are reasonably priced and it’s got such a unique ambiance. Super busy in the evening time over the weekend so if you want to get some cool pics with few people go around 4-5pm on a week day!
This is a cute cozy space with a very friendly staff and great vibe all around. We enjoyed sipping our drinks to the tune of a live band whilst enjoying the mosaic, art, funny captions. The patio was closed in Feb 2022, but must be amazing to sit there if it’s open in Summer. A definite go to place.
No food though but Cafe Piazza close by is good. Also this place is no card only cash, great prices too.
Great bar with live music. Everything is decorated in amazing mosaics. Check the live music schedule to see some great bands and bring cash - no cards accepted
Fantastic place. Always great service, great music, and plenty of awesome to look at.
A vibrant place with an eclectic array of quirky adornments, this bar is all about fun.
Some friends and I came here for the first time last weekend and I love this place. They had these $20 mystery boxes for sale at the bar and we bought them. They were full of just fun goodies that made no sense and I think that was the point. Great place to take some Instagram photos and just chill to have some drinks. We'll definitely be back.
