ST. LOUIS – A new sports bar—dedicated to supporting women’s sports—will be opening its doors in St. Louis soon.

The Sports Bra, which is expanding its locations across the country, initially opened in Portland, Oregon, in 2022. 

Its founder and CEO, Jenny Nguyen, says the bar’s mission is to foster more visibility for women’s sports.

“Each new location will carry the same heart and mission as our original one in Portland—uplifting women-owned businesses, serving delicious food and creating a welcoming space for everyone who wants to belong to a community and be part of the movement,” Nguyen said in a blog post.

Although watching and supporting women’s sports is the primary focus, the bar has a unique food and drink catalog.

At the Sports Bra, locals can enjoy signature cocktails, beers and cider that were crafted by Freeland Spirits, a women-owned distillery.

The bar’s food options also cater to those who are vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free or dairy-free.

The Sports Bra will also expand to cities like Boston, Indianapolis (home to Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever) and Las Vegas. 

With women’s sports rising in popularity, St. Louisans will now have an opportunity to tune into the WNBA and support the growth of the game.
