Why Nikki Glaser moved back home to Missouri, find out her favorite local spots!

Nikki Glaser made it big in Hollywood but she wanted to get back to her roots so she moved home to Missouri.

And now, she’s revealing some of her favorite and most frequented hot spots in the state and especially in her hometown of Kirkwood.

‘BYRD’ DESIGNER CONSIGNMENT

Whether it’s for a date or for a show, Nikki can be found hitting up ‘Byrd’ which offers “high quality designer labels not easily found in the Midwest,” according to their website. Open Tuesday through Saturday, Nikki is able to pop her head in and get ready to feel her best in for her comedy shows.

THE FACTORY

If you live in the Midwest, St. Louis to be exact, and have tickets to a Nikki Glaser show, most likely it’s going to be at ‘The Factory.’ It’s the “first built from-the-ground-up performance venue in the Midwest in over 20 years,” their website states.

‘THE PROMENADE AT BRENTWOOD’

This shopping center actually inspired one of Nikki’s stand-up routines, “One routine was about what high school you went to, shopping at the Brentwood Promenade, and barely finding a parking spot. There were even jokes about getting carjacked,” Nikki tells First Alert 4.

FRIDA’S AND BONITO BAR

Nikki likes to go to Frida’s for a date night with Chris, her on-and-off-again boyfriend. Nikki orders the brussels sprouts and can never leave the restaurant without having their signature avocado mousse. According to their website, Frida’s is a “plant-forward pescatarian restaurant serving vegan & seafood dishes, as well as creative cocktails.”

THE FABULOUS FOX THEATER

This is where Nikki Glaser famously brought her dad, E.J. Glaser on stage during her 2025 “Alive and Unwell” tour where she playfully referred to the moment as his “Make-A-Wish”. The Fox Theater, “is one of the most exquisite venues in the country to enjoy live touring Broadway shows, concerts and comedians. The Fabulous Fox strives to provide St. Louis audiences with the best in entertainment and something for everyone,” their website states.
