ST. LOUIS — The B-Side, a burger joint and bar that's been a staple on Cherokee Street in Benton Park West for seven years, will shutter its doors at the end of business Sunday.
The closing will come after the restaurant holds "the best funeral ever," according to a social media post Wednesday night. No reason was given for the closing.
"Welp... sorry but Sunday Nov. 5th will be our last day of business," the restaurant said in an Instagram post. "Thanks for the 7 years of new friends, old friends, good times and memories. A heartfelt thanks to all of you. Come celebrate with us the next few days as we intend on having the best funeral ever. Big love and thanks for everything."
The B-Side was opened in October 2016 at 2709 Cherokee St. by co-owners Francis Rodriguez, Beckie Lewis and Joe Timm. The building is owned by Brannon Real Estate LLC, whose registered agent is Patrick Brannon of St. Louis, according to city and state records.
