to Bacchus? Outside Food and Drink Policy
We are often asked, "Can I bring my own food to Bacchus?" While we pride ourselves on creating a premier experience, our policy does not permit outside food or beverages inside our lounge. This policy helps us maintain a clean, comfortable, and consistent atmosphere for all our guests to enjoy. Instead of focusing on a kitchen, we pour all of our energy into curating an exceptional drink menu and providing a sophisticated and relaxed environment. We invite you to explore our wide selection of beverages, from ice-cold domestic beers and popular imports to fine wines and expertly crafted mixed drinks. Our focus is on providing the perfect refreshment to complement your time with us, whether you are trying your luck on our state-of-the-art video gaming terminals, or simply unwinding in our comfortable lounge. Our goal is to be the best upscale video gaming lounge in the Metro East, and that starts with creating the perfect environment.
While our policy restricts bringing in your own meals, we have a fantastic alternative that offers you unlimited culinary choice: food delivery! We fully encourage our guests to order from their favorite local Shiloh and O'Fallon restaurants and have their meals delivered directly to Bacchus. This unique approach allows you to pair your preferred cuisine with our amazing drink selection. Furthermore, we do make exceptions for special celebratory desserts. If you are planning a birthday party or group event with us, you are welcome to bring a cake or cupcakes to share with your group.

At Bacchus, our mission is to provide a clean, safe, and enjoyable upscale environment for adults. A key part of maintaining this standard involves our policies regarding outside food and drinks. We have designed our establishment to be a premier destination for video gaming, relaxing with friends, and enjoying a perfectly prepared beverage. This guide will walk you through our policies, the reasons behind them, and how you can still enjoy a delicious meal during your visit.
To put it simply, we do not allow outside food or beverages to be brought into and consumed at Bacchus. This includes everything from fast food and leftovers to snacks and personal water bottles. The only exception to this rule is for celebratory desserts like a birthday cake when you are hosting an event with us, which we ask you to coordinate with our team in advance. Likewise, state and local liquor licensing laws strictly prohibit any outside alcohol from being brought onto our premises. Our entire bar menu is available to ensure you have plenty of delicious beverage options.
Our rules are not in place to inconvenience you, but rather to enhance the experience for every single guest who walks through our doors. There are several important reasons for our policy:
