This location feels a little hidden, but it's there if you're searing for it! There's a big parking lot with lots of space. I walked in and saw lots of specials on bottles and picked up a bottle of Pinot Grigio for myself ($4.99) and explored the rest of the store. It's super well organized and labeled to find what you're looking for. Whatever you need, I would assume they have it. I don't typically purchase mini bottles of champs or Prosecco because they can be pretty pricy, but I found 4 mini bottles for $8.99 which in my opinion is a steal. Staff was friendly and helpful, and I definitely plan on returning to do some wine exploring :)

St. Louis is lousy with these microbreweries--this part of town in particular, to the point where,…read moreas I ran the streets of the surrounding area, I was violently assaulted with what must be the smell of beer as it's being brewed. It's not altogether different from the smell of beer as it's coming back up, and it called to mind my illustrious, mostly-forgotten-at-this-point college years. I was suddenly compelled to listen to Cannibal Ox and watch certain videos that I'd pilfered from Kazaa, and it's probably for the best that I didn't have access to a circa 1998 Compaq Presario in that moment. The vibe in Bluewood Brewing is a lot classier. There's no "Iron Galaxy" over the PA. The lights are dimmed, which I imagine would be convenient if there was someone there you owed money to. I was particularly impressed with a long table on the patio. I remarked to a member of my running group that it almost certainly didn't come from IKEA. The wood was of too high a quality. The food menu is limited to a small selection of standard sports-bar fare, but this is not anywhere you'd go to watch the game. They might not have any TVs. Did they spend too much on the table? Also, they don't sell any beer in cans, that I'm aware of, which I generally prefer as someone who, as the evening progresses, is prone to dropping things. I went with something called Crush, which is an orange-flavored high-gravity IPA. It was the highest ABV selection on their regular beer menu, but it also costs a little bit more, so you're not really getting over on them--unless you thought to "pregame." I found it to be both less "stiff" than I was expecting and less orange-tasting, in a good way but also in a bad way, in that anything that fails to conform to expectation is at least somewhat disappointing. I was expecting paint thinner and orange juice. I got something that was balanced and flavorful. From the food menu, I got the daily special, which was a sort of elevated patty melt called the Stable Melt. It came with two all-beef patties, Swiss, caramelized onions and "Frisco" sauce on Union Loafers marbled rye, with your choice of chips or fries. It was $18, and as I was standing there a guy came out and changed the price to $19, presumably due to developments in the war with Iran. I was assured that I'd be "grandfathered in" at $18, but I'm not sure if he told the guy at the register and I didn't bother to check. It wasn't necessarily my kind of thing, but it was a great burger. The name-brand bread alone nearly justified the price increase. The meat was generously proportioned (no Diddy), but it didn't quite extend to the edges of the bread. Perhaps if it were one larger patty? The onions gave it a sophisticated Salisbury steak vibe, wholly superior to Hungry Man. The fries called to mind the fries at Wendy's. If only they offered a Frosty to dip them in. It wouldn't necessarily go with their beer. I'd suggest they put bourbon or something in it, but I shudder to think what they might charge.

Extremely crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. You can get them tossed in any of the house sauces, I love the garlic parmesan personally!

It's never too busy or crowded and the service is always super friendly and fun.

Oh Jujube, how I love you so. Such a fantastic environment. Like I want to tell the whole world…read moreabout it, but I also want to keep it all to myself. To my knowledge, their menu changes seasonally and I've had the pleasure of having their tempura asparagus, slippery wontons and the fusion slaw. The asparagus is so tender and fresh and has the best cloud like batter that is perfectly fried. It comes with the perfect pairing of a hollandaise sauce. I'm not generally big on hollandaise but my gosh this is so tangy and just has perfect umami. The fusion slaw has local roughage (I love roughage!) and topped with candied Missouri pecans. Such a nice candied flavor and not too sweet. The dressing is light and not too saturated where everything is wilted. Such a good bite and texture. Now, my favorite: the slippery wontons. So slippery but I just wanna shove them in my mouth. I'll start with the chili oil and black vinegar they come swimming in. Just grab a spoon and taste it, you will not regret it. It hits all the flavor profiles without it being overwhelming. And as intended, it's perfectly paired with the wontons! What makes them slippery is the light wrappers that just swim around the oil/vinegar. (You probably don't eat like me but I cut them in half to pour the sauce into). The filling has ozark mushrooms and fermented tofu - the literal perfect combination. Whatever sauce was left over, I poured it onto the slaw and it was still hitting. I haven't been this excited to crave their food in years and I'm so grateful that they exist. I wish I could just peek into that kitchen and thank each and every chef. The service and workers are always pleasant to interact with and very genuine. They make great cocktails and check on you the perfect amount. I think a great thing they do is include tips/gratuity into the bill. It took me time to get used to not tipping but perhaps this is why they seem to enjoy their roles. Everyone is knowledgeable and just provides excellent service. The bar is my favorite spot to sit and their seats are very comfortable for Big Plump! The other seats are also great and there is not a bad place to sit. Even the bathroom decorations are cute. The lighting is dim and romantic and fills the space with warmth. You can tell there's so much thought put into it all. I haven't been this thrilled to go somewhere in such a long time. I'm so happy this place exists. I wish I had better words to describe how it feels to be there, but for now, everyone should go.

If you don't try their Blue Plate Special, well, that's on you, but you're really missing out. You cannot beat the hospitality. I must say that again: it's simply impossible to beat the hospitality at Mainlander/Jujube. Tips are included (Saint Louis restaurants - pay attention - this is huge!!) The staff is so welcoming and friendly, and the atmosphere is dreamy. Between the music and decor, you feel like you are in a different and better era. We are so lucky to have such a magical restaurant in our city.

The beer was great, especially with the hot cheese curds. Ordered the Friday Fish Sando with no cheese. Came out in a timely manner, large and crispy! It was messy in the best way.
