Beers Of The World Pub & Grill

All in all a bad experience
The breakfast was scant and expensive 2 eggs 2 Rashers of bacon
A few fries and 1 pice of toast served on a nasty plastic plate with plastic cutlery
All for $ 11.49
Price would be ok if the breakfast was hearty but it wasn’t
Then for the sting, the coffee wasn’t included, so an extra $ 2.49 for the coffee
I will only ever be ripped off once by this chain
Never again.

Food is not good, service is OK.
Potato skins were microwaved. Appetizer came after the entrée (not sure if that was a kitchen or service issue). You have to pay extra to sub anything for fries. Chicken cordon bleu had no discernable bleu. The salad was pathetic: arugula, carrot, tomatoes, nothing else.
Overpriced, even for airport food.

I ordered eggs over easy, they showed up over medium and cold. Coffee tasted like luke warm dirty water. And they had Fox Ooz on the TV. Waitress was pleasant, though.

Good beer. Worst Christmas music imaginable blaring on the sound system. Obnoxious Holiday Boy Bands to Barf Beer by.

Employees are about as unenthused as I’ve ever seen. Service is slow and lazy. Sitting here now and they have CNN on. An older bartender, white hair with mustache, comes in for his shift and has the nerve to audibly and, very snarky, say «CNN…communist news network.» Dude​.STFU​.no one cares what you think. Now he’s telling «liberal» jokes to the other bartender still in earshot of everyone at the bar. Unreal. I suppose that’s why you’re 50+ years old and still bartend at the airport. No common sense or concern. This place sucks.

It was OK. Plain and simple. OK
Time: Went for lunch
Price for two: $ 25 (2 meals no drinks)
Food: Caesar was alright. Sandwich was okay.
Service: Okay.
Positive Points:
Quick service (from food order to table delivery)
It’s a place to sit and eat, rather than to eat your food near your gate.
Why the 3 out of 5?
Service was slow in the beginning, but once we ordered, she checked on us, took our plates away and drop the check.
Prices are high, but that can be expected since we’re in an airport.
The food could have been better for the price.
In the end, it’s a place in an airport after all. It was exactly what I expect. High price. Edible food. OK service.
***based on my use of OK in this review I feel my stars on on-​point***

Alright, I have to come to the defense of this place. In reality it’s probably more like three stars, but I’m going to go ahead and bump it up to four to make up for all the haters. No, it’s not fancy, and sometimes it’s a little slow, but if you’re in a rush you should pick up a pre-​made sandwich someplace else, or go to a fast food place. If you’re getting a sit-​down meal with table service, you should expect it to take longer than Burger King. As far as food goes, I’ve only had things like chicken tenders and fries here (for some reason that’s what I always want when I’m traveling, and there are fewer ways you can screw it up), but it’s always been decent. For drinks, I usually go for whiskey, and I do appreciate the double for $ 3 more.
As for the service /​atmosphere, it feels sort of like a truck stop diner that somehow landed in an airport. Sometimes the servers have a little attitude, but personally I like that better than the impersonal robots who work at some «nicer» airport restaurants (not that you’re going to find nice restaurants in Lambert anyway). This place actually has some character, which makes it different from most airport bars.
Short version: If you like dive bars and you have some time to spare, come here, if not, go somewhere else.

I’ll start by saying that I never got the opportunity to actually eat any of their food so this review is purely about their crappy service and the reason I am not writing this review about the food. I walked up to this joint with the intention of ordering a meal to go but there was no area that was clearly marked to go. I asked one of the severs running around the place what I needed to do for a to go order and she said I could either go to the bar or go to a podium type stand where there was supposed to be someone standing and taking orders. So since i didn’t see this ghost person, I went to the bar where I asked about placing a to go order and the lady said I needed to place the order with the ghost lady. I told her she wasn’t there and she said she’d get her. Well after waiting for 15min, she never came and I never got the chance to place the order with the ghost lady. Hopefully if you actually get the opportunity to order, it’s worth it but judging from the rating of this place, it’s not!

Worst service I’ve ever had. I had to ask twice where my food was and at least three times for a glass of water. Never got the water.

I wish i cud give less. Crappy buns on burgers, only 2 power plug points in the entire place. Wish they did not exist. Make room for someone else. The best thing here is the heinz ketchup

Enjoyed a lime chicken sandwich washed down with a Goose Island IPA. The service was decent and all things considered this was a pretty good experience, particularly considering it is in an airport.
Left in a hurry as as soon as we stepped outside we heard a final call for our names as I guess our flight was leaving earlier than predicted!

So… this place blows. Period. Unfortunately there isn’t another choice for a cold beverage before a flight. I have been there at least 10 times, and I even made the mistake of eating. It smells, the bartenders don’t really care because they know you are captive and for some reason people tip them. I really wish they would add some competition in the A wing to Lambert.
So jus order a beer (they cannot screw that up) and leave an appropriate tip… my .$.02 and my tip.
Safe travels

There is nothing worldly about this place. It’s a trap in a concourse very limited in restaurants and I believe this is the only one serving alcohol, forcing diners to this hot mess.
Arriving 45 minutes before my plane was to board, I thought I had time for a quick lunch. I sensed something was wrong when I saw many single dining looking around mystified. Several got up and left without ever ordering or receiving their food. In a situation like this, I expected to find one overworked server, but oddly there were three servers. My server was actually very attentive and kind. The others were nearly invisible to their tables. I ordered immediately, and then had to ask the server for a to go box since my food did not arrive in the 45 minutes I had before boarding. There is not a flight status screen nearby or else I would have been able to find out my flight was delayed 30 minutes. The layout of the restaurant was not conducive to carry on luggage storage while eating.
For lunch I had a beer and a chicken and waffles salad, totaling $ 27. At the gate, I opened my salad and immediately thought, YES fresh spring mix. Upon further review, the salad avalanched downhill. The fried chicken nuggets were more hard crusty batter than chicken and the peppercorn ranch dressing was pepper water. The waffle was broken pieces of a waffle cone. The Gouda was in surprisingly too big of chunks and of high quality. Too bad the flavor didn’t fit in the salad at all.
Nice try Budweiser. This is place is awful at all levels.

Beers of the World is located in the main terminal of the Lambert International Airport in St Louis. If you haven’t experienced Lambert it’s quite a treat with high modern design everywhere by Eero Saarinen. Too bad the food at this restaurant isn’t as spectacular as the airport architecture.
We had about an hour before boarding began on our flight back to Atlanta — looking for something to do, the Beers of the World looked interesting — it was also packed so the food must be good, right? Unfortunately like us the other patrons must have been captive of the system. It took us about 10 minutes to find a table — 3 adults around something designed for 2. After we were seated it was another 10 minutes before someone came by. We quickly ordered and while the beer hit the table fairly quickly we almost got up and left waiting on the food — it arrived about 10 minutes before boarding so we woofed it down. Honestly, it was little better than those sandwiches you can buy at stands along the concourse.
The menu actually doesn’t look that bad — many items that would seem very pub-like.The beer menu — ugh. Obviously this is an Anheuser-​Busch operation by all the crappy mainstream brews. Lucky for us Boddingtons and Goose Island were available on tap — I choose the Goose Island which is a fairly decent IPA.
Sangam ended up with a chicken sandwich with fries — he said the sandwich was OK but the fries were limp and with that mass-​produced quality we all enjoy so much.
Sid ordered the chicken and waffle salad, sans chicken — he didn’t each much of it.
I ended up with the Turkey Po Boy — it was OK but nothing special. Certainly not worth the long wait.
We finished up quickly and boarded our plane.

In an airport, you typically encounter bars where the food is mediocre and the service abysmal. This place could only hope to improve to such a level. The bartenders are inattentive, I got doused with dishwater as the bartender shook a glass to rid it of extra water and the dirty dishes pile up at the end of the bar amid the smell of garbage. And, to top it all off, because they have a captive audience, they pillage the wallets of their patrons, charging ridiculous amounts for a beer. Their table wait staff falls into two distinct categories: should-​be pensioners and haggard, inattentive ogres. It’s a pretty sad place and its a shame there’s not an alternate on this concourse at STL.

Had a decent burger here last week. They do to quite cook to order, even tho they ask how you want it, but the burger was still sizable and tasty, albeit a tad dry.

They served my Shock Top with the orange in the beer. Literally floating in head. It looked like they cracked a raw egg on top of the beer. For a place called «Beers of the World» you would think they would know that, if served with an orange, it should be served in the side. Not only is the presentation unappealing, it’s also incredibly unsanitary since you never know how clean that orange is. You also have to put your fingers in your beer if you want to dig it out.
I’d hate to know how they serve the Stella…

«What is that smell… Smells like a homeless person… OMG it’s their menu»
Tip: wash your hands after handling their menu
Got a shock top beer with fries and total was $ 13.22 (without tip)
Come on… Seriously?

Come on guys! It’s an airport restaurant bar. Cut them some slack.
My crab cakes were pretty decent. I also enjoyed the variety of beers on tap. Was it overpriced? Sure. But it’s airport food, what do you expect? The service was abysmal, but they were getting relatively good business (the place was packed! Had trouble finding a seat!)
But seriously, I think I had the same waitress as Evan L. She was relatively accommodating but no-​nonsense and SO SLOW. I mean she came take our orders after we were waiting about 5m. Our food came out maybe 30−40m afterwards? Then our beers after that. One of our party had to leave and just left some cash on the table because this woman was so slow with her service. How hard is it to give us our beers as we wait for our food?
Anyway, other than the brief rant about the service. This is a pretty normal pub joint. I hear it’s the best option for the terminal.

Eeeeeesh.
Believe me when I tell you that holding out for an in-​flight cheese plate is a MUCH better option than grabbing a pre-​flight bite at Beers of the World. Because it’s near impossible to screw up a quesadilla, I ordered that over the burger and sandwiches once I noticed their low Unilocal rating. I thought to myself, ‘how bad can it really be?‘
Really bad. The chicken tastes straight out of an Oscar Mayer ready-​made pouch… you know the kind, the one you find in your grocer’s refrigerated aisle? I carefully picked each chunk out and tried to make the best out of crunchy tortilla, cheese and tasteless salsa. Guys, don’t make the same mistake and pay $ 10.99 for a heap of glaring apathy.
As for the beers — with a title boasting ‘Beers of the World’, I’d expect much more than their weak international line-​up of Heineken, Beck’s, Leffe, and Hoegaarden. Though I will give them 2 nostalgic stars for carrying Leffe Blonde… not because it’s a particularly good beer, but it does remind me of good times in Croatia where it’s everywhere.
The too-​dim lighting and the grim service made for a depressing encounter. Hell, even this review is depressing. Onward!
