The revitalization of Midtown Alley continues. Field House Sports Bar and Grill, located at Locust Street and North Theresa Avenue in the newly renovated PW Shoe Lofts, is the latest restaurant to make its home in the area formerly known as Auto Row.
Field House Sports Bar and Grill gets its name from its proximity to St. Louis University’s Chaifetz Arena. Billikens fans can come inside to cheer on the home team surrounded by the restaurant’s high-definition, eight-foot screens.
As far as the menu goes, expect a bit more upscale fare considering that the restaurant also hopes to attract diners heading for an evening at the Fox Theater, Powell Hall and other arts and entertainment venues in the Grand Center district. As far as beverages go, beer lovers in particular will be happy to raise a pint at Field House. The restaurant will have 20 taps dedicated to mostly craft brews including local and Missouri beers, as well as some obscure names. A delivery of porter from Six Row Brewing Co. was expected today, and watch for suds from nearby Urban Chestnut Brewing Co. to be on tap soon.
Field House will open tomorrow at 4 p.m. Regular hours are 11 a.m. to 1 a.m. (the kitchen closes at 11 p.m.) seven days a week.
