If you're just beginning to plan your event, you might be overwhelmed by all the necessary steps to make it happen.

First things first, contact us! We'd be happy to walk you through the process and timeline requirements. In the meantime, feel free to browse through the packages and menus on our website.

Wondering how far out you should book your event venue? The simple answer is "as soon as you've chosen your date". This is especially true during peak seasons like spring, fall, and the holidays. A good rule of thumb is 12-18 months in advance.

Coming Soon to City Foundry STL

Butler’s Pantry, St. Louis’ premier caterer for more than 50 years, is excited to unveil renderings for 18Rails | The Venue @ CityFoundrySTL—its brand new event space set to open in 2021.

18Rails | The Venue @ CityFoundrySTL will explore event experiences like never before with unrivaled innovation—transforming the former factory into a chic-industrial space. Ideal for any size gathering, guests will enjoy the multi-functional space directly off of the highly-anticipated Food Hall with five-star innovative menus from Chef Vince Bommarito, Jr., Chief Executive Officer at Butler’s Pantry. A James Beard Award finalist, Chef Vince will combine his experience, expertise and love for creating the impossible into the culinary offerings at 18Rails with never before seen stations and a la carte offerings.

18Rails | The Venue @ CityFoundrySTL, conveniently located in the heart of the City Foundry development in Midtown, will offer ample, free parking, state-of-the-art technology and many modern conveniences. Its origin was once the center of industrial activity, sitting near a hub where 18 rail lines connected St. Louis to the rest of the country.

Opening in 2020, City Foundry STL is the adaptive reuse of the 15-acre former Federal-Mogul Midtown St. Louis foundry site into a 21st century mixed use development that celebrates creative concepts in food, commerce and entrepreneurship.
