The Gin Room
The Gin Room was opened in 2014 on South Grand by Natasha Bahrami, the Gin Girl, who returned from Washington to build a bar around gin flights, house-made tonics, classics with the gin specified and a back bar that runs into genever and navy strength. The James Beard Foundation named it an Outstanding Bar semifinalist in 2023 and Bahrami a semifinalist for Outstanding Professional in Beverage Service in 2025, and she runs The Gin World event series from here.

Lazy Tiger
Lazy Tiger pairs cocktails with a dinner menu at 210 North Euclid Avenue in St. Louis, and its sister restaurants are Yellowbelly and Extra Wavy. The current cocktail list is called Bust-A-Move. The namesake Lazy Tiger is a mezcal margarita with orange shrub, serrano hot honey and Tajín. Hungry Eyes crosses a dirty martini with a stirred gimlet, using Ford's gin, blanc vermouth, cantaloupe and kombu, while Sunset Strip builds a paloma on reposado tequila and orange bell pepper. Italian Disco meets a clarified pornstar martini halfway to a vodka soda, with passionfruit boba. On the stirred side, Drum Circle is a pine-scented old fashioned of rye and cognac, and Cold Sweats is a chile-driven mezcal Manhattan.
