Downtown, Weston, MO

Scooter’s 1881st bar, first visited in 2026.

We knew about this as a restaurant but didn’t think it had a bar. We went in for some appetizers and the dining room was full but the hostess said “there might be seats at the bar” and we were like “whaaaat??”. She led us down a hallway and down a flight of stairs, where we found a cavernous basement bar behind the main building that looks out on the city park.

I switched back to beer and had an O’Malley’s Irish Stout.

Royal Deluxe

Downtown, Weston, MO

Scooter’s 1880th bar, first visited in 2026.

Another one that we never knew existed! We saw a placard outside saying “Craft Beer” so decided to go in and have a look.

The hotel is owned by the same people who own O’Malley’s, so the beer served is from Weston Brewing Company. I’d already had my fill, though, so opted for cocktails instead.

Walnut Creek of Weston

scooterj — Sat, 16 May 2026 17:10:00 +0000

Downtown, Weston, MO

Scooter’s 1878th bar, first visited in 2026.

A second location for the existing Walnut Creek Winery in Holt, serving all the same wines. Unlike the Holt location this will not serve their famous pizza, but a kitchen and outdoor smokers are in the works for a different type4 of menu in the near future.

There are two levels out outdoor seating, and future plans include expanding out on the green space in back right up to the boundary of the city park.

Weston Wine Company

scooterj — Sat, 18 Jun 2022 17:13:00 +0000

(Downtown, Weston, MO)

Scooter’s 1535th bar, first visited in 2022.

This place feels more like a wine bar than a winery, primarily because at least at the time of our visit they only had two of their own wines available and the rest were wines from around the world.

The building has a cutely-decorated indoor tasting room, and a patio wraps around the front at the southwest end of the building with a handful of tables covered and most of them out in the open.

I had a flight consisting of the two of their wines they had available (Missouri Moscato and Weston Red) plus a Chocolate Port by The Chocolatier (Australia).

RJ’s Bar

scooterj — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 17:13:00 +0000

(Downtown, Weston, MO)

Scooter’s 542nd bar, first visited in 2009.

This was a charming downtown dive. The main room was much smaller than I expected from the outside. Later I noticed an additional room, with games, located past a swinging door that I had mistaken for an employees-only area.
