Masterfully made cocktails. Friendly and professional bartenders and delicious food. All of that makes for a fun-filled afternoon of day drinking.
Unfortunately last week I had to send my diva dog over, The Rainbow Bridge. I was sad, but I wanted to celebrate her life. So, a friend and I decided to belly up to the bar at Brennan's. We lifted our glasses multiple times to her amazing life.
I am a drinker of classic cocktails, so my drinks of the afternoon were; Dirty Martini, Manhattan and Old Fashioned. They were all made superbly. I asked one of the bartenders how long he had been mastering his craft and he responded, one year. He's got a great career ahead of him, he made me some great cocktails.
When drinking, it's always good to have a little nosh, to mix with the alcohol. We munched on their Potato Chips and Caramelized French Onion Dip. The chips were house made and crispy. However, the dip was a disappointment for me. We also had the, Black Truffles Flatbread and it was excellent. On my return, I will definitely be ordering it again.
Brennan's is a great place to day drink. The atmosphere is classy and relaxing. I'm kinda glad I moved out of STL, because being retired and having a lot of free time, I'd be here doing a lot of day drinking. Now, I can treat myself to a cocktail when I'm in town running errands.
If you haven't been, you need to go experience Brennan's.
