Oak Street Inn & Lounge coming to Cottleville Fall 2023

5512 Oak St Historic Building

We’re thrilled to give you a sneak peek at one of the most exciting new developments in Old Town Cottleville.

5521 Oak Street is a historic building, originally established in 1862 as a general store. But this year it will open as a whole new operation!

Now under new ownership since January 2022, the building is undergoing a massive transformation to offer a brand new experience in Cottleville: Oak Street Inn & Lounge.

This historic site previously operated as a post office, hotel, and antique store over the years.

Once completed, the Oak Street Renovation will have 4 main components:

  • The Inn
  • The Lounge restaurant & bar
  • Pink Willow café
  • An underground speakeasy bar

Currently, renovations are finishing up to restore this beautiful building.

The project is being developed by the owners of Public School House, right down the street. The family has reportedly invested over $1 million to make this dream a reality.

After lifting the building and pouring a new foundation, they built a new basement, which will become a fun speakeasy bar.

 

Prime Location and Exciting Neighbors

Located in the heart of Old Town Cottleville, Oak Street Inn’s prime location offers guests easy access to local attractions, boutiques, and restaurants.

It’s right next to local Cottleville favorites like:

  • Upshot Coffee
  • Cottleville Wine Seller
  • Cookies & Cream

Unparalleled Accommodations: The Inn and Lounge

The final plans for Oak Street Inn include the lounge on the main floor and four guest rooms plus a large suite on the 3rd floor.

With welcoming rooms, cozy furnishings, and all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay, you’ll feel right at home in this historic yet modern space.

When you walk in, Oak Street Lounge will offer an upscale European atmosphere as a cocktail bar and restaurant. You can grab a craft cocktail, a bite to eat, and unwind.

And the café will serve delicious breakfast bowls and drinks, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal in the morning.

Plus, above the café you’ll find a new rooftop patio. It’ll be available to rent out for events and get togethers.
