"Hit the brakes halfway through the Grove and head into The Handlebar for a relaxing speed check. Right off the bat, you’ll likely be asked “Inside or out?” Feel free to curb slide up to the large bar surfaced with bike gears and get a load of the cycling memorabilia hanging above. Need a bit of vitamin D? Then chill out on their large sunny patio. Either way, you’ll enjoy a menu offering a variety of cocktails and local brew options to pair with authentic but approachable Russian cuisine. Special gems like braised pork and Ukranian blinchikis are a win. While many hit this spot for lunch or dinner, if you’re looking to switch speeds, cruise in on a weekend to enjoy a host of DJs and energetic dance parties. Have a good time, gutter bunnies!" - Manifest

Great staff and service, personality’s make the place, love the feel and the look of it. Food was good, exactly the kind of bar selection you would expect at a little local bar. It was comfortable. Funky place in a great way, funky smell not so great but worth tolerating for the people and experience. That moldy water smell old buildings get, nothing awful. I will be going again! Go have a handle pie and some pretzels, enjoy some music and take in the scene. Inclusivity reigns here and it’s beautiful.

What a charming bar with a friendly atmosphere! I love the cycling memorabilia and I feel very safe with the pride flags hanging around the space. Our bartender was very cordial and was able to accommodate changes in our drinks without scorn. Food was decent! Love the garlic cheese bread and the T-Ravs were not gamey either. I enjoyed my Moscow Mule. There's even a rooftop patio that has a gorgeous view of Tower Grove. Perfect for a midsummer night. Delicious.

Really like this place! Fun vibe and good drinks. During Halloween time, a drunk dude grabbed my friends drink and the bartender was happy to replace it just in case and asked who the encounter was with. We aren't sure anything got put in it, but it's nice to know the staff doesn't hesitate to make folks feel safe no matter what

I've been coming to this place off and on for about 8 months. Erin and Sophia are fantastic and always are kind to me and my business associates. The decor is great. The location is convenient, and the drinks are delicious. I'll keep coming here for sure.

What a cool find. We discovered, as owner hosted kids New Year event. But now I know that there is cozy bar in STL that serves tasty food and offers variety of drinks. And it looks like there is something new going here every day. Definitely, on the list to come back again…without kids :)

Coming here is like coming to loving family and friends. I enjoy being here, and it is a great place to hang out at, enjoy your preferred drink, dance, or just even people-watch. Love it here, and recommend this bar to anyone visiting St. Louis, or even if you've lived here your whole life! 👍🏻

Went here with friends for the first time the other day. We went on trivia night and had a great time! We will definitely be back for trivia. The service and atmosphere were good. Two of my friends got the pretzels and enjoyed them so much they got a second order. My girlfriend and I got a pizza. It was a good size for the price but I didn't care for the crust or sauce. I hope to try the handlepie next time, they were out. The ripstix also looked good.
