The Bar at Old Town Smokehouse

Handcrafted cocktails made with real smoke and housemade syrups, a bourbon shelf that keeps the St. Charles Bourbon Society coming back, and cold beer for everybody else. Pull up a stool on Main Street.

You must be 21 or older with a valid ID to order alcohol.

The Smokehouse Old Fashion cocktail being smoked at the bar

Smokehouse Old Fashion

Pork belly-infused whiskey, orange-maple syrup and bitters, smoked to order. Smoky, savory and built for brisket.

Barrel Aged Manhattan

We rest our Manhattans in a barrel in-house until the edges round off and the whole thing turns silky. Stirred, never rushed.

House Cocktails

Housemade syrups — blackberry-honey, orange-maple, lemon-honey — go into crowd favorites like the Bourbon Buzz, Summer Kiss and Other Side of the Tracks.

21+ only. Prices and availability subject to change. Full beer and wine list on the menu.

The bourbon shelf

Pairing guide

What to drink with your BBQ
