Questions about Bachelorette Party in STL

Laurie11

I am helping plan a bachelorette party in STL and need some input. The bride wants to go out to eat and attend a drag show at Hamburger Mary's. 

So my first question is what is a good recommendation for a nice sit down resturant (that is friendly for a bachelorette party--close to either the Landing or to Olive Street).

Second, what is your input on Hamburger Mary's--is there any other place in STL that offers a drag show.

Lastly, what are some good bars to hit up on the Landing. And does anyone recommend a hotel for us to stay in.

Any help would be appreciated. TIA

First of all: The Landing is honestly not somewhere I'd hang out.  I had a purse ripped off of my arm there on my 21st birthday.  It's amateur hour with a ton of hs and college kids with fake IDs and one of the only places in the city you'll pay a cover at every single bar.  

I think restaurant choice would depend on how rowdy you guys are going to be at dinner.  My favorite restaurant in that area is Copia, but it's not a super loud scene, it's a very nice restaurant.

There are tons of hotels in that area but I'd choose to stay walking distance to where you're going to go out.  The Lumiere is very close to the landing and has nice rooms, plus since there's a casino there will be a bar open very very late.

There are other bars in St. Louis that offer drag shows, but they are more of the gay bars in town that are in Midtown/ the Central West End.  I know for sure that Novaks has Drag Queens and Kings shows, it is on Manchester off of Kingshighway.

We went to the landing for Bachelorette party and it was soo much fun.  Big Daddy's and Morgan Street are my favorite as long as you like the club atmosphere.  As far as what the other post said I've been there alot and have never had any problems and ladies do not pay a cover.  Have fun and be safe.
