Where to Enjoy a Local Picnic
It’s just not summer unless you eat a meal or two outdoors. Backyard barbecues and restaurant patios are great options, but we can’t forget the simpler pleasures. In honor of National Picnic Month, we’ve compiled some of the best places in St. Louis to spread a blanket and enjoy a lazy afternoon with food and friends. Grab Your Basket and Blanket THE BEST ST. LOUIS PICNIC SPOTS
Laumeier Sculpture Park Get a bit of culture by checking out the 70 large-scale outdoor art pieces spread throughout Laumeier Sculpture Park. It’s one of the oldest sculpture parks in the country and covers 105 acres in total. Pick a favorite piece of art to settle under with your picnic blanket, or pre-book one of the covered pavilions. After you eat, you can explore one of the several onsite hiking trails or embark on a self-guided tour of the sculptures. There is plenty to see and countless photo opportunities, but remember not to touch the art unless labeled otherwise.
Tower Grove Park Take in 1800s architecture while you enjoy your sandwiches at Tower Grove Park. This historic landmark features hundred-year-old buildings, statues, and architecture dotting the vast landscape. The park also serves as an arboretum with over 7,000 trees that house more than 200 bird species. Pavilions, tables, and barbecues are available for those who’d like to use them, and restaurants sit on either side of the park if you’d like to pick up a professionally prepared lunch before sitting back to enjoy the scenery.
Citygarden This downtown location offers
sculptures, scenery, and more. The relatively recent addition to St. Louis packs a lot into only two city blocks and has created a green oasis in the middle of the city. Visitors can enjoy hundreds of trees and thousands of flowers hand-picked to decorate the landscape, along with two dozen sculptures. Sit in a shady grove or spread out by one of the two fountains in the middle of the hustle and bustle. Note that barbecues are banned, so you’ll need to bring a ready-to-eat meal — but the experience is well worth packing your picnic basket.
