Place was dead. There is also a $20 “cover” charge at the door per person as if they give something to the customer that other clubs don’t. Basically what I’m saying is there are other clubs in the city more lively and better yet free entry. Yeah there are other good reviews for this place but I’m starting to think the people making the reviews don’t understand what a good club is. Just because it looks nice doesn’t mean much.

At the end of the day, it’s night, and boy did I have one!I had such a lovely experience here. For my first night out in St. Louis my bartender Vesna made it memorable! Superb service, great atmosphere, I will be coming back.

The Pepper Lounge is amazing, a good mix of music and the drinks are top notch. Vesna is an amazing bartender !! 5 stars all around. The security guards are phenomenal making sure everyone is safe while enjoying a night out.

Food is a toss up. Go to Olive Garden if youre hungry, just saying. Love this place I cant get enough of it. It has different event nightly and depending on your vibe that day you can enjoy the patio, the back room where most of facing happens and in the front room where its more relaxed vibe. All rooms have a bar btw. Bring ya crew or find someone new! 😂🤣

What a great place for quality service and drinks accompanied by DJs ensuring the vibe is set. If you are able to enjoy a night at Pepper, make sure you have Vesna take care of you - she will provide the absolute best service and make sure you have the best night of your life.

For my brothers birthday we reversed bottle service and a booth. We had a blast and the DJ was playing good music. The vibe and energy was very live as well. I loved the bottle service girl Alicyia, she was funny, professional and she made sure we had everything we needed as well. That was the first time coming their and i would definitely come again, they also had a lot of sercurity which made me feel more comfortable. Their no seating unless you Reserve a table but, their are tables where you can put drinks on otherwise you will be standing up the whole time. So make reservations for a booth if you are going to be in heels!!!! It will be pricey though!!!!

Vesna rocks the bar scene like no other! Shes like the Energizer Bunny, always quick with a drink and a smile. Her friendly vibe makes you feel like youve known her forever. Whether youre a regular or a newbie, Vesnas got your back with top-notch service and a killer attitude. If happiness had a flavor, itd taste like Vesnas cocktails! Shes the kind of bartender that keeps you coming back for more. Cheers to Vesna, the MVP of bartenders!

If you are looking for THE place to go out with the girls while still feeling safe to mingle, The Pepper Lounge is where you need to be. From the bouncers to the DJ, drinks, and singles, there is nothing lacking here. I went out with some friends this past Saturday to celebrate my 21st, the bouncers we’re super polite and professional (good looking as well) and were also sure to make it known to the manager, Kelly, that the birthday girl was in the building. Kelly then ensured I had the best night with two complimentary birthday shots, a refund of my personal cover charge and a souvenir cup with a nightcap to keep my drinks safe for the remainder of the evening, as well as his contact card in case I had any problems. I was absolutely blown away by the hospitality here! Kelly frequently checked in on everyone throughout the night to be sure there were no issues and seemed to keep up with his staff too. The club didn’t start to get busy until around midnight, so it’s more of a late night lounge, but there was plenty of seating, staff, three bars and room to get out on the floor. Without a doubt, I will be returning for another night out.

I have been going to the Pepper Lounge for years. Granted in the past, it was nice, but management wasnt always on top of things. However, for the past several years, things have definitely changed. For the better. The bar tenders and wait staff are not only attractive, but friendly and respectful. I also like that they dont let in patrons who dress as if they are going to a real club. Pepper is indeed a true Lounge. Its inviting with elegant decor, with a bar and comfortable seating area in the front. The dance bar in the rear of the building is intimate enough for a smaller crowd, with a VIP section accommodating parties with great service. Outside is a perfect area for smokers, and those who want a bit more quiet to converse and enjoy the weather. I believe that the change in management has a lot to do with the improvements. They are seen running around and taking care of business, always dressed professionally and stylish. I give them a two thumbs up! There are plenty of bars and clubs in St. Louis.... but nothing has lasted as long as The Pepper Lounge has. That speaks volumes.

I have been going there for years. I love that they play top 40 instead of EDM. I can actually dance and sing along to the music. The drinks are pretty standard. The decor is nice. VIP service is good too! Definitely one of my favorite clubs to attend.

Not exactly sure what night I went but I had such a good time with friends. It was my first time there, the dj was on point that night. Not bad at all for a $10 cover. Slightly disappointed with my weak drinks but the djs connection with the crowd made it a great night. Will definitely see me coming back soon

Pepper Lounge hosted the second part of our holiday company event. Richard, Louisa and Hannah and of course the rest of the Pepper Crew made us feel welcome and the service was awesome. Definitely put the place on your list for a PARTY! Oh and the 2 DJs west absolutely the best, great fun!

Review №57

Having a pretty place is not the only thing that makes ppl want to come back. Their bottle service is outrageous in price, the bartenders are not friendly, nor the cocktail servers. But price is price, I understand that. But what I dont understand is how our entire group got scammed at the door by the bouncer. I called in 2 times that day asking about ticket sales and then again later about the price. I was told both times that I had to just pay at the door and it was a $10 cover. I was fine with that. But instead it was $20 once we got there, and even the DJ we knew playing that night said it should have been only $10. So from the front door problems, to the unfriendly staff, and price of a bottle we all felt like we will not being going back to this club again. There were 13 of us that night, and not one person wanted to come back, not just on industry night on Sunday bc of the bad experience, but also probably never again. And to top it off, I called back the next night and was told to call another time bc the weekends are you busy to take complaints. On a Saturday night at 6 I would have to take any complaints or calls at my bar. Poor employee skills all around.

Racial Discrimination at Pepper I had a very negative experience at Pepper Lounge. I am an American who went to Pepper Lounge with a group of my Indian friends, and, while we were there, my friends experienced racial discrimination.We had been at Pepper Lounge from about 10:30 or 11 and had been dancing in the bar. It was quite a nice atmosphere at that point, and the DJ even played some pretty famous Indian songs. When the dance floor opened up, we went in there. My friends are Indian, so they prefer to dance openly in a large group. We danced on the dance floor for a while, and then, while I was at the bar, a bouncer came up to some of them and told them they had to leave because they were too drunk. In fact, no one had more than one or two drinks the whole night. I went to speak to the GM, and he told me that there had been complaints of them bumping into people. Im not aware of them bumping into anyone, but its a club, so that happens. Then he said, that they were jumping and kicking and that its just not that kind of club. Thats when I became very sad and realized that my friends were being kicked out because they just werent like everyone else. I went and got my tab and told my friends that we should leave, because we dont want to be in a place like that. A very nice bouncer tried to speak up for us. He also had an accent, and I think he was acutely aware that my friends were being asked to leave because they were foreigners. It wouldnt have mattered to me. I wanted to leave then anyway. We went to Club 15, where we had no similar problems.

Always a staple for a good time without all the fuss of a trendy nightclubIll definitely popular with the trendy and In Crowd this place has a more comfortable feel with an awesome front bar its decorated in Mahogany wood has a lounge-type feel perhaps a 70s mood type atmosphere and then has a mini nightclub in the back often used to be reserved for VIP parties back in the day now is typically open after 11 on the weekends it goes from 0 to packed within a half hour before 11 nobody after 11:30 packed has bottle service and Reserve tables you can have a good time without do an either however youre looking to turn up with a group at the end crowd spot its kind of a local haunt this is definitely worth stopping byOne of my favorites to stop by in college and still to this day is adulting ordate night. Always a stop when people or friends from out of town come to visit. Its trendy its City its casually comfortable or dressy and moderately priced its not cheap but it aint super expensive

There are no rules on dress codes on any of their sites, nor social media. Be aware no athletic gear of any kind or you will be turned away. My only complaint is the lack of transparency that causes problems.

Review №62

Nice and chill but throw the whole DJ away. He plays too many old records. Its 2018 and people want to hear more current music. He plays a lot of early 2000s stuff. So I took a few stars away because of the DJ.

Literally the most genuine club in STL. I had a great time (a little too great) lost my phone, and coat. The owner himself kept them in a lock box and even offered to deliver them to me. I won’t be going anywhere else!

Review №64

We went there on a Saturday night with a group of friends and they were so crowded that they started to deny people entry. I was fine with that and ready to go home but later they decided it was okay to let people in. So we decided to go in since they werent charging a cover at the time (it was around 2am) and the place was so crowded that you literally could not move. They packed people in like sardines and if people did try to dance they ended up bumping into everyone around them. My wife and I go to many clubs in St. Louis, but this one was ridiculous.

Review №67

Not worth it. Early 20s- Went sunday night and was charged 20 bucks reading the reviews I was most likely overcharged but I thought it would be worth it at the time but it wasnt. 85% of the people were in the VIP lounge and some got in w/o a wristband most people on the floor were early 30s and up. There are other places that are free to get into or cost 5-10$ that are livelier than this place.
