Eating in St. Louis can be brutal on Mondays. After enduring the first day of the work week, it can be hard to rustle up the necessary spirit to do more work, meaning stand in the kitchen and make dinner. But finding somewhere to go out to dinner or order in from can be just as hard since Monday tends to be the day restaurants take off.

Hey, everyone deserves the day off. We support that. But we also support being able to eat restaurant food on a day you could really use a break from drudgery. So, with that in mind, we compiled this list of where you can grab a bite on Monday. There are a surprisingly great number of great options — all in the City of St. Louis. (Keep an eye out for an upcoming list of county destinations.)
