I live about 30mins south of downtown St. Louis and the arch. Have lived there my entire life (36yrs) it is not as dangerous as you think. Stay away from north county and you will be fine. The city is beautiful, arch, zoo, forest park, union station are all great places to see and visit in the city. As others have said you would probably be best meeting somewhere west of the city in St Charles. Ameristar casino is right in the heart of historic st charles and on the riverfront of the Missouri River. You could meet there the parking lot is plenty big. Lots of restaurants in the casino or very nearby and a bass pro shop and west marine right across the street.

In St Charles...Tony's on main for dinner...Filet, pasta w/alfredo sauce, Caesar salad for dinner...Drinks...you can walk around main and find a good variety of different style small bars to drink at. Trailhead is nice, also Old Millstream is really cool, they are a very good walk from Tony's on the other end of Main.

Some friends and I went back in the Winter to some of the "other" places. Very disappointed. Ended up at those 2, whatever they're called now. We ended up paying 5 cover charges, 6 taxi rides. Expensive night.....
