Description: Former St. Louis Cardinals third baseman and current Cardinals broadcaster Mike Shannon is one of the most colorful characters in the team’s rich history and the owner of this sports bar and restaurant, located just a couple of blocks from Busch Stadium. Shannon’s has an outstanding collection of sports memorabilia on display. Shannon himself can be found in the bar area after games, and he often does live radio broadcasts from the pub’s friendly confines. There are lots of TVs here as well, and all are tuned to local baseball, football, or hockey whenever a game is available. The restaurant and bar’s new location allowed the owners to expand “outdoors.” On Cardinals game days, the patio bar called “The Outfield” opens for business, and it’s a great place to meet before and after games.
