Our local independent businesses provide much more than just good prices:

Better Service
Local owners and employees really know their businesses and their customers — and can offer you more personalized service and relevant advice.

Superior Quality
Many locally owned independents provide higher-quality products and services to you than the average national chain business.

Unique Choices
Independent local businesses bring their own creativity to their businesses — offering selections you won’t find elsewhere.

 

 

 

Our City and County local independents are just a click away.

Our members are local independents who’ve taken a stand to help spread the word about locals, by joining the BUILD St. Louis business alliance. Please patronize their businesses – and refer friends and family to them, as well.

Live Music

The Gramophone | TheGramophoneLive.com
314 531 5700 | 4243 Manchester Ave in The Grove neighborhood (63110) Map
We’re a fun and comfortable place to enjoy your favorite genres of music, along with music that’s new to you. Because we’ve designed a space that accommodates shows of any type – from laid-back jazz sessions to lively funk jams, and from St. Louis blues to garage-band rock – no two nights are ever the same at The Gramophone! What you can consistently expect, however, is great service, tasty beverages, and outstanding music. We offer a full bar, including draft, bottle and can beers; wines by the glass and bottle; and classic and signature cocktails. We’re a non-smoking 21+ venue with free parking on the street and nearby. Visit our website for our hours and show calendar. Let us know the music you’d us to feature! Follow us at http://Twitter.com/TheGramophone.

Neighborhood Movie Events

Frontyard Features | FYFoutdoormovies.com
314 664 4330 | 1922 Cherokee Street in the Cherokee-Lemp Historic District (63118) Map
We don’t show movies, we build communities! In the winter, spring, summer and fall, we offer perfect ways to bring a neighborhood together and for local businesses to meet new customers. When your group hosts a Frontyard Feature event, you aren't just paying for a movie – you’re getting something that neighbors will talk about for years to come. With our low prices and fundraising plans, we create traditions your neighbors will enjoy and look forward to. Advertising from local businesses helps us highlight part of what makes a neighborhood great. Besides showcasing local businesses to local residents, we show off those businesses to other people visiting the neighborhood to see the movie. Frontyard Feature helps bring neighbors together and provides more effective advertising venues for local businesses. Follow us at http://Twitter.com/FYFmissouri.
