Schlafly Bottleworks

Schlafly Bottleworks in 2014 Bottleworks became the first brewery in St. Louis powered by 100% renewable energy. Schlafly is an institution of Maplewood’s walkable, bikeable, collaborative and fun Green Dining District. It’s a beautiful and unique dining and drinking experience, and an excellent place to take visiting friends and relatives to show off one of STL’s finest breweries.

They offer of vegan and vegetarian food options. The coffee and tea they serve comes from Fair Trade and Direct Trade sources. Of course, most people come for the beer, which is brewed onsite. Landscaping for the brewery and restaurant includes native plants to attract pollinators to their garden, providing habitat for migratory animals like butterflies. The spent grain, leftover from the brewing process, is given to local farmers to use as animal feed, preventing organic material from going to the landfill. 

Schlafly Bottleworks is a participant in GiftAMeal, a program that markets restaurants while feeding the hungry in St. Louis. On the GiftAMeal app, each time someone takes a photo at a partner restaurant, a meal is provided to someone in need through Operation Food Search.
