About Bogart’s Smokehouse

Choose it for casual barbecue, not a polished night out

The decision is simple: go during its posted daytime hours and treat it as a food-first stop. The current schedule runs Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30 am to 4 pm, with Monday and Sunday closed. That timing also means it is not the natural choice for an evening dinner where later hours are part of the plan.

A useful trust signal is external recognition: Opinionated About Dining listed it in its 2024 Cheap Eats in North America ranking. For readers scanning the full St Louis restaurants guide, this sits in the practical, barbecue-specific lane rather than the dressed-up dinner lane.

Compared with Polite Society, Bogart's Smokehouse is the more direct choice when barbecue is the priority. Compared with Broadway Oyster Bar, it is the more focused call for barbecue, while Broadway Oyster Bar is another St Louis option.

Make this a daytime barbecue anchor, not the whole occasion. For a broader stay, pair it with planning from the St Louis hotels guide, then use the St Louis bars guide or other St Louis planning resources to build the rest of the day.
