The $20: Lush Ladies blog on the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Web site weighs in about the Cruisin' Rte 66 bar at 7895 Watson Road (old Route 66). It used to be known as George's Route 66 Bar and Grill, but it's best-known for the big neon martini glass at the front of the building (which, regrettably, I can't seem to find any photos of it).
Maybe Fred Friction and his dearly departed Frederick's Music Lounge can find a new home here.
My wife and I, along with my mother in law are the new owners of Cruisin’ Rte 66. I can email you a pic of the martini glass if you would like. Our website will be up in about a week.
