Book NowAbout Willie the Boatman Brewery & Taproom
Tucked down an industrial St Peters alleyway, this backstreet brewery pours honest craft beer behind roller garage doors. No polished taproom pretense here—just cozy booths, well-priced pints, and rows of vintage arcade cabinets where you can burn through rounds of classic games with a cold glass in hand. Locals treat it as an easygoing hideaway to shed the week's noise or host an unstuffy milestone bash, with the crew running floor logistics and vendor setups without breaking a sweat. You grab a pour, trade coins for joystick turns, and settle into the hum of a proper neighborhood warehouse.
