St.

Louis               is               a               pretty               literate               city.

It               ranked               high               on               a               recent               list               of               the               most               literate               cities               in               America.

It               has               been               the               home               of               such               notable               writers               as               Tennessee               Williams               and               T.S.

Elliot,               among               others.

We               also               have               two               major               universities,               Wash               U.

and               St.

Louis               University,               and               a               fair               number               of               independent               bookstores,               as               well               as               the               major               chains               like               Borders               and               Barnes               and               Noble.

And               we               have               our               fair               share               of               "literary               pubs"               too.

It's               hard               to               define               what               exactly               a               literary               pub               is               other               than               it's               where               the               intelligentsia               go               when               they               want               a               bite               to               eat               and               aren't               hanging               out               at               the               local               coffee               shops               or               bookstores.

Here               are               a               few               of               the               best               places               to               hang               out               in               St.

Louis               if               you               have               a               literary               bent.

If               you               don't,               then               go               there               anyway               as               you               might               just               walk               out               a               little               smarter               as               well               as               being               full.
               My               favorite               pub/restaurant               with               a               literary               bent               has               got               to               be               Dressel's               down               at               419               Euclid               Avenue               in               that               most               literate               section               of               the               city:               the               Central               West               End.

This               cozy               Welsh               pub               has               hundreds               of               pictures               of               famed               literati               hanging               on               the               walls               as               well               as               Mozart               playing               on               the               stereo               loop.

Regardless               of               your               IQ               you               can               swig               down               some               Double               Dragon               Ale               and               munch               on               some               of               the               best               potato               chips               in               the               city.

Try               them               with               the               malt               vinegar               and               a               light               sprinkling               of               Parmesan               cheese.

Delicious.

Other               items               on               the               menu               vary               but               the               stew               and               ribs               that               I've               gotten               there               were               very               good               also.
               A               few               years               back               I               had               an               occasion               to               meet               the               owner,               John               Dressel.

We               were               fortunate               enough               to               spend               part               of               New               Year's               Eve               at               the               pub               with               him               and               his               wife.

It               was               a               delightful               evening.

John               is               a               Bard               and               a               poet               who               spends               his               time               between               here               in               St.

Louis               and               Wales.

He               has               won               prizes               in               major               poetry               competitions               both               here               and               in               the               U.K.

Some               notable               works               include               "Out               of               Wales"               (1984),               "The               Road               to               Shiloh"               (1994),               and               "Hard               Love               and               Country"               (1977).

At               the               time               we               met               he               was               the               Director               of               Staff               for               the               Creative               Writing               program               at               Trinity               College               in               Carmarthen,               Wales.
               Although               it's               not               considered               a               literary               pub,               the               Schlafly               Tap               Room               becomes               the               place               to               be               once               a               year               in               January               when               they               host               Robert               Burn's               Night.

Celebrated               around               the               Bard's               birthday,               this               event               features               lots               of               Scotch               Ale               and               traditional               food               like               Cock-a-Leeky               Soup,               Scotch               Eggs,               and               Haggis,               sans               the               sheep's               belly,               of               course.

There               is               also               a               poetry               reading               by               one               of               the               owners,               Tom               Schlafly.
               Robert               Burns               lived               between               1759               and               1796.

He               was               the               national               poet               of               Scotland               and               is               probably               most               famous               for               his               little               ditty               that               is               sung               around               the               world               on               New               Year's               Eve,               Auld               Lang               Syne.
               And               the               latest               in               the               literary               pub               scene               in               St.

Louis               is               named               after               another               Bard,               or               maybe               "The               Bard."               William               Shakespeare               himself.
