• Comfort Food • Downtown

BB's Jazz, Blues & Soups, a cherished St. Louis landmark, is preparing for a vibrant return to its historic home at 700 South Broadway. Originally founded in 1976 by Bob Burkhardt and Mark O'Shaughnessy, this iconic venue is nestled in the heart of downtown, within an area once known as "Frenchtown" and part of the city's famed "Blues Triangle." After a temporary closure, BB's is set to reopen in November 2026 under the new stewardship of Steve Sullivan and Mark Goldenberg, owners of the nearby Broadway Oyster Bar. Guests can anticipate an authentic experience, blending live blues, jazz, and soul music with a menu of comforting, Southern-inspired fare. The building itself, dating back to 1848, boasts a rich and colorful history, adding to the establishment's unique charm and character.

Great option for a dinner out before the Fox. The staff are friendly, approachable, and offer great service. Great menu options for everyone in your party — apps, salads, pasta, seafood, chicken, and steaks. One of my regular restaurant spots during the Fox season!

Sat on the patio. Server, Bobby V, was attentive, friendly and helpful. There were 3 in our party. Ordered the filet, the sea bass, and the tuna entrees. Each was great!

Everything was perfect as usual. I’m so happy that my favorite, Black and Blue pasta is back on the menu. And it’s just as great as I remembered.

Always a great experience. Food is good, service amazing. Friendly and accommodating. We usually have a large group, and it doesn’t bother the staff at all. A great place to go!
