50 Years of Good Times and Giving Back to Community
What began as a small Welsh pub on McPherson Avenue by Jack Brangle and Jon Dressel, Llywelyn’s has now grown into a regional institution currently boasting two locations across the St. Louis metro area and another in Kansas City. Webster Groves High School alums Chris Marshall, Brett Bennett and Scott Kemper took over ownership in 1997, evolving Llywelyn’s into a celebration of all things Celtic. Its menu is rich in Irish, Scottish and Welsh traditions, complemented by an extensive selection of over fifty beers, ales and spirits from around the world.
With its unique combination of historic charm, modern amenities and a welcoming atmosphere, Llywelyn’s remains the go-to destination for gatherings of all kinds. From the historic Webster Groves location with its soaring ceilings and fireside seating to the picturesque St. Charles patio overlooking the Missouri River, each Llywelyn’s offers a distinct experience while staying true to its Celtic roots.
Throughout its 50th year anniversary celebration, Llywelyn’s will be supporting Pedal the Cause, a local organization that raises funds to accelerate breakthrough cancer research at the Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s Hospital. Llywelyn’s hopes to raise $50,000 through a series of events and promotions April through June.
Llywelyn’s is deeply committed to the communities it serves. Over the past decade, the pub has sponsored or donated to multiple local charities and community organizations. Whether it’s hosting fundraisers, supporting schools or participating in local events like the Webster Groves Chilifest, Llywelyn’s remains dedicated to making a positive impact.

A Year of Celebration
To mark its 50-year anniversary, Llywelyn’s Pub will serve a special commemorative beerbrewed by St. Louis’ own Schlafly’s.

The celebration will feature exclusive promotions and activities for families, friends, and long-time patrons. Watch for more to come!
