Two Plumbers Brewery & Arcade

About Two Plumbers Brewery & Arcade
Two Plumbers Brewery & Arcade is an indie brewpub and retro arcade tucked into a strip mall just off 1st Capitol Drive in St. Charles, Missouri. Founded in 2017 by two childhood friends — a microbiologist and an animator — the spot blends small-batch craft beer with a wall of classic arcade cabinets, giving it a laid-back, nostalgic feel. The name? A nod to a certain pair of digital plumbers, not any actual pipe work.

Beer and Arcade Highlights
The house beer list rotates often but always includes approachable, well-balanced options. Pauline Blonde Ale is a fan favorite — crisp, light, and perfect for long gaming sessions. You’ll also find occasional experimental brews and guest taps from around Missouri. IPAs, stouts, and sours rotate in and out depending on the season. No in-house ciders or seltzers, but non-alcoholic drinks are available.

Look for their limited-run IPAs on draft — a customer favorite, especially when paired with a round of NBA Jam.

The arcade has dozens of old-school machines like Galaga, Street Fighter, and pinball, plus board games for table groups. “Best barcade in the state,” one regular wrote. The combo of beer, games, and relaxed staff makes it easy to lose track of time.

Food and Drink
Dan O’s wood-fired pizza is served on-site — hot, chewy, and exactly what you want with a pint. Try the pepperoni or white pie. You can also bring your own food, which is a rare perk. No full kitchen, no kids menu, but the space is casual and flexible. They sometimes partner with local food vendors. Vegetarian options depend on the pizza menu; call ahead for allergy info.

The space doesn’t offer takeout or delivery for beer or food.

Atmosphere and Experience
The vibe is youthful but low-key. Expect 80s music, the whirr of arcade machines, and rows of tap handles behind the bar. Indoor only, mostly high-top seating and standing space. Not ideal for big groups with kids unless you go during the weekend family hours. Staff is consistently reviewed as upbeat and helpful.

Noise level is medium to loud, depending on the night. Trivia and other events happen occasionally — check social media for the latest.
