Uncle Joe's Bar & Grill - Outside Deck Facing the Mississippi
(Updated: October 25, 2021)

3.0
On the evening of our visit, we were looking for an outdoor deck overlooking the Mississippi River at the St. Charles riverfront and ended up at Uncle Joe's Bar & Grill. The main reason we tried here was that there was public parking right behind the deck on the backside of this bar.
It was a pleasant evening and we enjoyed the pitchers (seemed a bit on the small size) of a cheaper brand of Anheuser-Busch beer (you guess). Our server was nice and price-wise we did great staying to the A-B special of the night. So, overall, we had an enjoyable evening.
However, the bar is run down (not so much on the outside deck, but indoors) which is why I really can't recommend it unless you do stay to the deck.
I might note that the deck is not handicap accessible nor is the men's restroom which is down a flight of stairs. The women's restroom is inside the main floor of the bar. Also, we kept smelling a bad odor from time to time. I'm not sure if that was from trash containers in the back or from a sewer, but when the breeze blew the wrong way it wasn't all too nice.
