About None of the Above

Tucked beneath the industrial bones of City Foundry STL in Midtown St. Louis, None of the Above offers more than a drink—it’s a journey. Enter through an unmarked steel door with only a red light as identification, walk down a graffiti-lined tunnel and stairs into a subterranean lounge where Art Deco glam meets underground cooling.

Inside you’ll find rich velvet banquettes, brass and jewel-toned accents, wall murals, and an entrance into a hidden side-room called “The Library,” accessible through a floor-to-ceiling mirror. The ambience is intentionally intimate and thoughtful—developers describe it as a place where you’ll hear your companion’s voice and feel transported, not overwhelmed.

The bar is led by the team from Niche Food Group under chef-owner Gerard Craft, with bartender Fionna Gemzon curating inventive cocktails that respect classics but lean playful. Drinks include elevated takes like black-sesame rye-based old-fashioneds, chili-crisp fat-washed tequila creations, and other complex pours. Snacks are light but luxurious—charred‐onion dip, candied ham & white-cheddar popcorn, and even a peanut-butter-with-foie-gras mousse cookie.

The vibe is suited for a date night, a quiet celebration, or even just an escape from the everyday. Reservations aren’t always accepted for walk-ins, but you can secure space via wait-list. Parties of larger size can call ahead.
