Only a short ride from some of downtown St Louis’ most notable attractions, the Wine Press wine bar and café is the ideal place to relax, enjoy a glass of wine, and exceptional appetizers and entrees. While we take what we do seriously, first and foremost, we believe drinking wine should be enjoyed by all, novices and connoisseurs alike. With over 50+ wines by the glass, 30+ fine beers and spirits, the Wine Press is the perfect setting for a romantic meal before the theater at the Fox, or an event in Grand Center, or just to indulge in a casual evening out with friends and family.

Our talented staff has gone to great lengths to ensure a sensory experience unlike any other in Saint Louis. Fresh ingredients and special attention to presentation is what makes the food at The Wine Press so unique. During the summer months, the patio is open, and during the fall and winter, the fire pit is lit, providing a great spot to enjoy a glass of wine.

We invite you to read Sauce Magazine’s review of the Wine Press written by Matt Berkley or listed to a Sauce Magazine podcast review (review starts at the 7 min mark).

The Wine Press, St Louis, MO, is a Non-Smoking establishment.

This is how we see it…

De Gustibus Non Disputandum Est.
Or, in English: In matters of taste, one should not argue.

The culture of being a more educated wine drinker has reached mass appeal.  De Gustibus Non Disputandum Est makes for a good credo. It invites everyone to the table; snobs, slobs, sloven and sophisticate. There is a lot to discover about the world of wine and each other. Expanding our knowledge of wine offers a common interest, and a lubricant to exercise conversation.

Our History

Located on the edge of the Central West End, and the fringe of the Gas Light district; the Wine Press opened in 2008 at 4436 Olive Street. After months of renovations in an effort to maintain the charm of this historic structure (circa 1904). The Wine Press is the outcome of a desire and commitment by the owner, Greg Stevens, to create an environment where people can share a casual evening with friends enhanced by fine wines in a comfortable ambiance. We are excited to announce on May 2010 Greg was presented Landmarks Association Honors Award for one of the top 10 Building Renovations in Saint Louis. Greg is also the owner of Peace Institute Printing, located in the same building, offering printing services to the greater St. Louis area.
