One of the things that I no longer take for granted living by Las Vegas is that it is so easy to buy a beer. Halfway across the continent in St. Louis Missouri only a few miles north of the Amhiezer Busch Brewery, one of the perks about living by Vegas was a luxury. As I have mentioned in numerous reviews, I greatly enjoy closing up the night with a bullet beer. If you are unfamiliar with a bullet beer, they are the 25 ounce can and 32 ounce bottle. It just relaxes me in the same way that watching TV, drinking hot cocoa, or whatever it is that relaxes other people. Where we stayed for seven nights in the 7th at Washington Street Embassy Suites next to America's Center there were no 7-Elevens or Walgreens that sells alcohol. The three options for beer were Schnuck's, Olive Market, and James Henry Pavillion. On account of the experience where customers harrased me for money in front of the useless cashier, I don't count Cupola, which by the way did not sell the bullet beer I like. James Henry Pavillion was the closest convenience and liquor store to the hotel. They were my beer hookup. I patronized this business two times. On each visit I'd buy a certain number of bullet cans that averaged out to one per night. I was impressed by their alcohol selection. By the way they also sell food that includes Boar's Head. At any rate, I was further impressed by the fact that the only true liquor and convenience store in downtown St. Louis sold the beer at competitive prices. For crying out loud, the bullet beer here is less expensive than a Walmart Supercenter. This is the first time that I ever saw a 32 ounce can of Miller Lite. For $2.06 after taxes it was a steel. Drinking it was an even greater steel. If you are like me, and appreciate ending the night with a 32 ounce cold one and your downtown hotel room has a refrigerator, I suggest walking (speedwalking at night) to James Henry Provisions and stocking up on the 32 ounce cold ones. The hard to find product that I brought here greatly added to my quality of night in St. Louis. read more

Sandwich shop, liquor store & convenience mart- if judged that way I could go easily 4-5 stars. The grocery selection & price are great for a convenient store... grocery store is more like 2 star. Two 20 oz sodas for $3 is convenient store pricing. Liquor store- nice selection of hard liquor, wine & even beer (descent selection of craft beer) & competitive pricing. Sandwich shop is in the back. Thick/stacked Boar's Head 6-7 inch for $5-6 bucks is a tasty deal. They also offer smaller snack sandwiches I've never tried. While offering "build your own", the actual menu is limited. I know I shop here often because it is convenient & sandwiches are good made to order values. read more

See all

Pretty cool place in the day/morning. They always close earlier than they advertise. It's great for locals but, if you say you're gonna be open until 9 but close at 850. You can just suck it. It's happened multiple times. Get your stuff together. If it's 850 and I'm just gonna grab a bag of chips but your doors are locked. I'm going to stop coming here, and just expect you to be closed and drive to a much nicer place like field's foods which is down the road and open until 10 daily. read more

Since we've moved into The Gentrys nearby we frequently shop here. Very stocked all your regular grocery and necessities including some fresh veggies in back corner of store. Frozen foods, drinks, liquor, etc.... They have it all. What we especially love is the customer service. Superior!!! Everyone. And! You must let Sam make you up a plate of nachos or BLTor other select items at her lil kitchen there!!! She's the best ! read more

Rude to customers and they are never open on time in the morning and always close earlier than it says they are open online. Selection and prices are fine but they don't value your patronage and are actively rude. Unless you live super close find somewhere else to go make this spot your last ditch effort read more

Do not go here. They will steal your credit card info. I came in there and spent $18 and after I left, they stole my info and these are the charges they put on my cqeThis is so pathetic. read more

James Henry Provisions - a list of items on a cell phone - Grocery Near Me - St Louis, Missouri

Well for starters they did not honor the yelp special so that was frustrating. The person was rude about it almost mocking. Poor selection

Even with Culinaria opening, the beautiful wife and I still go to James Henry when we need just one or two things (and admittedly, lots of times the one of two things ends up being booze and/or lotto). They actually have a pretty decent selection of beer and liquor (and it's not that much more price-wise than Culinaria). Their wine selection and prices aren't all that great though. Bonus points for having "airplane" bottles and other smaller sizes of booze, which has come in handy at times. In terms of safety, there's a way better vibe then when we first started going here -- they've put in more visible security cameras/monitors and the staff (especially A.J. and Mario) keep any potential problematic customers in line. Also, the panhandler/hustler types have moved further down the block and aren't in front of the store anymore. read more

It's a convenience store. End of story. Anyone who's looking for a nice corner store is in the wrong place...but it is NOT scary. the people that work there are all nice, including the ones that need a fresh start that one other reviewer talks about. Who cares where they came from? Jerk. Not gonna lie, their clientele is not the nicest, but it's not horrible either. Salt of the Earth. they're the kind of people that make the world go round - so get real and deal! This store is great for a quick grab. Need a soda? Done! Out of chips and salsa at your party? Got it! Out of toilet paper? Yep, got that too. It's great for a quick stop. Just take it for what it is - a convenience store. You're not in Ladue, don't expect it to be upscale. read more

James Henry Provisions strives to "Keep It Real" in an increasingly glamorous Downtown. It's contrasts with the more upscale City Grocer's and has been in existence a lot longer, providing Downtown-dwellers with much-needed emergency canned foods, like SPAM and random Chef Boyardee delicacies. I think I've seen a pickle in a clear plastic bag there. It's also an essential tailgating pit-stop for that assumed liquor/cigarette/paper plate runs that usually come hand-in-hand with tailgating scenarios. Sometimes, and I stress: SOMETIMES, you can get a hot dog or a slice of off-brand pizza for a buck or two. That's pretty handy for when you're low on cash. read more

James Henry Provisions is a great little convenience store. I go here whenever I am in the need for liquor or maybe a quick snack and some soda. Their prices are very reasonable and the staff is always friendly. I feel safe when I go here, even late at night. They now have security, and keep the rif-raft at bay. The store is always clean and well stocked, they always seem to have what I need or that which I'm in the mood to have. read more

I'm updating my review because I was contacted through Yelp by someone from James Henry couple of days after I wrote the review. The person who contacted me apologized for the bad experience and offered two free bottles of that same wine. I went back to the store and there was another guy who also apologized for what happened and gave me the 2 bottles. That shows that that the the business owner cares about his customers and I hope the cashier learned his lesson. Thanks! read more

This liquor store/convenience store offers a large selection of junk food to satisfy your every craving. They also have a decent liquor and wine selection. The beer options lean heavy on mass-produced domestics, which I find to be the biggest disappointment. Some local beers (mainly Schlafly) can be found here, but not nearly enough to make this a destination for real beer fans. read more

Dude gave me a hard time because my bill, a ten dollar bill, tore as I pulled it out of my pocket. I spent a minimum of 5 minutes convincing him to take the, still, legal tender. He insisted no one would take the torn bill as change and wanted me to tape it up!! Every once in a while, there are interactions that you think will go smoothly, like doing a little grocery shopping at a liquor store, that end up going off the rails. I'm hoping today inoculates me on that front for at least a good 12 months. Do you know what to do with s beat up bill? Give it to the bank. I hope it was worth the one star review. Yelp needs to start allowing people to give zero stars because some interactions are just that ridiculous. read more

I travel a lot and it is always nice to find a store like this that has a little bit of everything. Sometimes I just want to sit in my hotel room and have a light snack and a beer - these types of places in the downtown areas meet the need. Also, I live downtown Minneapolis and wish I had a store fully stocked like this one close to our condo. read more

There are not a lot of shopping choices in the area. This place is open and stocked with the basics. I was glad to find it.

This place saved my bacon. After arriving in the city, I realized I packed the wrong cable to charge my phone. The hotel suggested I check them out, which I gladly did. Not only did the guy at the register suggested I purchase a better quality cable, he was nice enough to make sure it worked before it was purchased. Best of all, it was less than $10. read more

I've lived downtown a year now and have grown extremely familiar with this store. Its a city convenience store: what do you expect? Other than the city's inflated prices and homeless problem that lingers outside, this store is pretty nice. I've grown to know the guys that work here and they're all pretty friendly. If you've got a problem with them you're probably a bum that got kicked out for begging or some thug that tried to steal something. read more

great place to pick up xoxo hummus, lentil & rice, pita. gluten free vegetarian vegan.
