    If you like it spicy try the Cajun Mary. I always ask for extra pickled green beans. Oh this one you may need a full-sized beer and not just the complementary bud light shot that comes with all Marys.

    Voted Best Bloody Mary in RFT's Best of STL 2013. Order the Quail Mary. It contains all the qualities of the perfect bloody mary! http://bit.ly/16OBGb8

    The Famous Bar is a great little bar, often with great live music. But, it's unique for it's awesome bartenders. It's only on the menu as a shot, but you can get a Pomegranite Martini that is killer
