Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in St. Charles

Great food choices. Great beer selection. Attentive and friendly staff. One of our favorite places in the area.

So glad the old Francesca’s menu is back! We took a two year hiatus due to the Mio Mota menu. Also the service was fantastic! Marybeth is the absolute best. So glad to be coming back to our old favorite restaurant!!

Food was great. Dawn, our server, was fun, friendly, and attentive. She was quick to make suggestions and took care of us at our pace. The place is good looking with a really nice bar as the centerpiece. We walked through the outdoor patio and bar area. Because of the time of year, it wasn’t set up, but looks like it’s a neat spot to hang out on warmer days. The tall ceilings, and hard surfaces, do bounce the noise around some. You definitely have to speak up when the place is full. All said, the food and service were great and the atmosphere is fun and vibrant. We will definitely be back!

Dined here before. A great spot for a meal and a cocktail before catching a show at the Arcada, it's only a block walk away.

We were seated right away. Our favorite appetizer is the meatballs. Sauce is excellent w some goat cheese. It comes w toasted bread and there’s plenty of bread and about 5 decently sized meatballs. My spouse ordered the grouper. He was very happy. Well prepared. I ordered the red wine braised short ribs which I recommend. They were tender, flavorful and not too fatty. Came w mashed potatoes. We had no room for dessert. Will eat at Coopers Hawk again soon.
