Fitz's Delmar

Fitz’s Delmar is known for its root beer, floats, and bottling facility in University City.

Fitz’s Delmar is one of the historical restaurant locations in the St. Louis region. It is a destination visited by thousands of visitors each year.

Initially opened in Richmond Heights in 1947 and survived until 1976. Fifteen years later, the root beer was rediscovered and popularized using its original recipe in the early 90s with the new location where old-style bottling equipment was installed for viewing by the visitors to enhance their experience.

In previous years, the new location was a bank, home to the two-story restaurant and root beer brewery that offers seating at the bar, tables, or outdoor patio. The room used for bottling was once the bank vault, which was designed for privacy and security, but now it is used to display the vintage bottling equipment.

Fitz’s is known for its root beer and is recognized on Wikipedia with a dedicated page describing the historical significance of this establishment.
