Guerrilla Street Food is opening a new location, in Webster Groves, marking a sixth location for the popular Filipino-American fusion restaurant.
The eatery, which already has locations on South Grand, Delmar Boulevard, inside 2nd Shift Brewing, and inside Two Plumbers Brewery + Arcade, is also opening a new location at 11658 Dorsett in Maryland Heights soon. And today, Guerrilla Street Food owner Brian Hardesty signed the lease on the Webster Groves space, at 43 S. Old Orchard Avenue, near Big Sky Café and Highway 61 Roadhouse. If all goes well, the location will open in May.

“We’re trying to have a presence outside the city and spread toward the county communities,” says Hardesty. “We love Webster Groves, and we thought it was appropriate to that area.”
The Webster Groves restaurant will serve “old standards and other things we’ve never done before,” Hardesty says. Guerrilla Street Food is about to roll out a menu change at both brewery locations, and the Webster Groves menu will reflect some of those dishes as well.
Guerrilla Street Food will join a number of new eateries in Webster Groves, which has experienced a restaurant boom in the past year. Fan favorites including Balkan Treat Box, Layla, The Frisco Barroom, and Firenza Pizza have also recently opened in the suburb.
“We’re big fans of the area and other restaurants in the neighborhood, who are some super good friends of ours, so we’re excited to be involved,” Hardesty says.
Meanwhile, Hardesty and his team are working to get a new food truck on the road in a couple weeks. The food truck, streamlined with a new look and feel, will serve grilled skewers and popular street food from the Philippines. The Guerrilla Street Food concept was launched from a food truck in 2011.
