Dining Longtime fans of Parker’s Table (7118 Oakland) will soon have a new place to sit and stay awhile: The Yale Bar (7120 Oakland) “I’ve always liked the idea of creating a neighborhood place where people can drop in and come and go as they please,” says owner Jonathan Parker Louis Dining In and Dining Out newsletters to stay up-to-date on the local restaurant and culinary scene The idea of adding a wine bar has been a long time in the making “This was always the plan,” says Parker The space was a legal office for the past 11 years the 800-square-foot space had been used to assemble holiday gift baskets for Parker’s Table renovation and construction began in earnest The interior now features an off-white color scheme chosen by Parker to create a clean and fresh look that highlights the original artwork displayed on the walls “I have artist friends who need wall space and this place is already set up for it,” he previously told SLM “Guests can enjoy the art while they’re here—and buy it if they like it.” Each piece includes a QR code linking to information about the artist and the artwork Most of the displayed works are whimsical pieces by local artist Sam Melendez many with ties to the neighborhood—including depictions of the nearby AMOCO sign One notable image shows a senior with a handwritten caption: “I’m here for a good time not a long time.” Parker says the quote could serve as the unofficial motto of The Yale Bar.A self-proclaimed scrounger Parker has a story for nearly every item in the place The bar top was crafted by renowned woodworker Dave Stine from an ash tree Parker had cut down in Illinois The copper sheets on the front of the bar came from a roofer’s supply house “They weren’t oxidized like that when I got them,” Parker says with a smile The eclectic furnishings include ladder-back chairs from a Pentecostal church in Tennessee and rustic wood-and-leather bucket chairs that Parker sourced from Facebook Marketplace The burled English walnut-topped tables once sat in the rathskeller of a Ritz-Carlton before making their way to a local coffee shop—then Other salvaged details abound: leftover slate from a chalkboard next door off-white tile rescued from a bathroom in Compton Heights… The list goes on with additional tables on the sidewalk in good weather It will serve wine and a small selection of beer but no hard liquor guests can choose from a rotating list of about a dozen wines Parker plans to feature limited-quantity selections—“a few bottles here a few cases there”—to help keep prices affordable Half a dozen hot and cold snacks will be prepped in the Parker’s Table kitchen and finished on-site at the wine bar dishes will be moving from one back door to the other,” says Parker plus other favorites that are typically found in Parker’s Table’s grab-and-go case who describes The Yale Bar experience as an apericena—a blend of Italy’s traditional aperitivo and a light dinner (cena) Parking should not be an issue: In addition to street parking Parker’s has access to the garage next door at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital beginning at 5 p.m.The opening date has yet to be determined pending the selection of a wine-savvy general manager “Four nights a week for a few hours a night,” Parker says Those who know Parker might describe him as the consummate shopkeeper. As SLM contributor Jenny Agnew once put it punctuated by long pauses that were never awkward Parker is like that favorite college professor who stays well after class because students want to hear more After an ill-fated attempt to open Delmar Farm & Food (which included a farmers’ market he purchased a building in Richmond Heights that had been a post office in the late 1920s The reimagined Parker’s Table in Richmond Heights became a mecca for wine Renowned chef Steven Caravelli (an alum of Chez Leon and Euclid Hospitality Group) operates the kitchen which serves up charcuterie and lunch items In 2022, Yelp named Parker’s Table “the best cheese shop in Missouri,” an accolade based on user ratings. “We really do pride ourselves on a high level of individual customer service,” cheesemonger Phil Billingsley told the Riverfront Times at the time It’s a sentiment that Parker still echoes: “A lot of the credit has to go to the staff who feel empowered enough to take ownership in this place.” Now, The Yale Bar completes Jonathan Parker’s revitalization plan. “You have Parker’s Table at the corner of Oakland and Yale, where you can pick up a large selection of food and drink to take home,” he says. “You have The Oakland Room, where you can invite all your friends to a party in your own private room, and now The Yale Bar, where you can grab a glass or two of wine and a snack. I’ve always thought that those should be the three legs of the stool.” Listen Here Listen Here Listen Here Listen Here DINING NEWSLETTERS Subscribe to the St. Louis Dining In and Dining Out newsletters to stay up-to-date on the local restaurant and culinary scene.
