Dressel’s Public House on North Euclid Avenue in St. Louis’s Central West End has been a neighborhood pub institution since it opened, combining a serious Welsh-influenced pub food program with one of the most thoughtfully curated craft beer and whiskey selections in the city. It appeared in Season 15, Episode 12 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Pubs and Grub,” which aired November 5, 2012. Guy Fieri found a St. Louis pub kitchen doing scratch-made bar food with the Welsh and British influences that distinguish Dressel’s from standard American pub fare — Welsh rarebit, house-made pork pie, and the kind of food that makes a neighborhood pub worth returning to for the menu as much as the pint.

What to Eat
The Welsh Rarebit — a savory cheese sauce made with beer and mustard served over toasted bread — is the British pub classic that most Americans have never encountered and that Dressel’s does properly. The House-Made Pork Pie with seasoned pork in a hot water crust pastry is the British pub staple that earns its own devoted following among regulars who have discovered it. The Pub Burger on fresh-ground beef with house-made condiments is the American option that holds its own against the British specialties. The Whiskey and Beer Selection is as seriously curated as the food menu. Find a St. Louis hotel on Trivago.
