Imagine a soda fountain and lunch counter tucked inside an art deco bar and you might have some idea what awaits you at this midtown joint. Located inside the former Stutz automobile showroom (a few sandwiches are named after models from the long-defunct carmaker), the Fountain on Locust offers soups, sandwiches and ice-cream treats for the kid inside all of us - as well as a few ice-cream martinis for the adults. Standout sandwiches include the "Prosperity Panini," with grilled zucchini and hummus; and the "Royal Grille," a grilled-cheese with slices of Fuji apple. Desserts include decadent sundaes. Ask for two spoons or surrender to your sweet tooth.
Update 11:59 a.m. Because of weather concerns, the Fountain's Burlesque Birthday Party will be postponed until Wednesday, February 27. Think back to the last birthday party for a five-year-old you a... More »

I love the Fountain!! Everything here is so delicious and cheap and the interior is outstanding. This is a must see for out-of-towners and a once-a-monther for St. Louis residents. Make sure you check out Burlesque Bingo on Thursday nights! So much fun!
Let's face it: Your basic indoor johns are just a step above your festival-weary portable potties -- and we're not talking about a big step here. Most times, having to utilize public restrooms is about as sanitary and fun as doing the backstroke in the ol' septic tank. After enduring mall messes, nightclub cesspools, department-store disasters, airport-terminal train wrecks and other similar nightmares, it's a dream to experience sweet relief in one of the loos at the Fountain on...

Step inside the Fountain on Locust and Norman Rockwell visions of happy families sipping ice-cream sodas in a simpler time come to mind. With its high ceilings, vibrant paint job and old-fashioned soda fountain, it could snag an award for Best Ice Cream Parlor Décor (if there were such a thing). If you order food off the menu, just be sure to leave room for ice cream. We're hooked on the Irish coffee flavor, but you won't go wrong with any of the dozen choices. Sodas are made... More »
