4 delicious STL deals for $10 or less to try now

1. Holy cannoli, has it been six years already? Piccione Pastry celebrates six years of Italian pastry goodness all week long with birthday deals. Now through Sunday, enjoy great specials, like $3 cannoli and new menu items, like birthday cake or breakfast cannoli or sign up for its annual all-you-can-eat cannoli contest. You’re only young once.

2. Pizza and beer reign supreme, and The Grove’s latest addition, Pie Guy Pizza, brings the two together. This weekend only, order any slice and get a free, 7-ounce pony bottle of 4 Hands Brewing Co. City Wide. If you’ve got the extra scratch, Pie Guy will take care of you; throw down on a whole pie and get a four-pack of 16-ounce City Wide free.

3. There are so many reasons reasons to hang in The Grove, and Atomic Cowboy wants to make sure you don’t go home hungry. Atomic has upped the ante on its already killer happy hour. Now, you can BOGO tacos during lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mondays and Fridays.

4. As if it wasn’t already on your calendar, National Pretzel Day is this Friday, and the quintessential St. Louis pretzel twister is showing the love. Gus’s Pretzels in Benton Park is offering free pretzels from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday – one for everyone who walks in the door while supplies last. Swing by during the lunch rush (11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.) and dance to traditional Bavarian music while sipping ice cold Fitz’s root beer. Prost!
