Visiting Edwardsville Best LFS's?

[robthorn]

Hey guys, I grew up in Edwardsville and now live in Florida. We are pretty lucky to have some great stores here in the Tampa area.
I haven't been to a store in the St. Louis area in about 18 years but was thinking if I was near some during my visit I would stop in just to check them out.
I am mainly into acro's with a few lps mixed in.
Any exceptional must see stores? Unfortunately I don't have a lot of time so no hole in the walls with no stock please.

I can't wait to get some Pantera's pizza and toasted beef ravioli. Count your blessings because you can't get either in any other part of the country. Visits home are all about family and food these days.

Corner Reef is a personal favorite but, that is in Columbia Illinois not Edwardsville.

My grandmother lives in Columbia and I will be there before going to Milstadt Tavern I think it is for fish to eat.

Thank you

If youre going to columbia you should maybe stop by Gateway Aquatics. It's right across the bridge in Oakville,10 min drive tops.

Aquatic Treasures off 159/I55 is pretty nice.

I'll second a vote for The Corner Reef, I was in there yesterday. Great selection and great prices.

I will have to make sure I bring my shipping account number with me just in case. Not sure St. Louis can beat Florida prices but its worth a shot.

When I was down in Florida I didnt see the prices being better TBH.

You do have a point Kego if you went to the east coast for sure. Those guys are friends but crazy on prices. Tampa area is cheaper from what I have seen.

I used to go to a place in Clayton that was pretty decent and another place I am trying to remember in St.Charles somewhere. Right off the highway by an Ark sounds familiar for some reason. Google search shows it was a restaurant.

Clayton pet emporium closed and Marine solutions moved. Check sticky at top of page for all stores in area!
