Depends on what kind of bar/club you like. If I were you, I'd hit Washington Avenue. It has trendier, upscale bars & clubs like Copia Urban Winery, Dreams, The Formula, Hair of the Dog, etc. Nice area. Everything from dance clubs, to live music, to lounges. Probably pay more for a drink here than anywhere else, tho.
If you like live blues & cajun/creole food, I recommend Beale on Broadway, the Broadway Oyster Bar, and BB's Jazz, Blues & Soups. All are on Broadway just a couple blocks south of Busch Stadium.
Here is a list & description of bars on the landing. Most of them are pretty popular with out-of-towners & people going to baseball games. Not my thing, but it might be yours:

Maggie O'Brians -- big sports bar, across from Union Station
Morgan Street Brewery == this microbrewery serves up several handcrafted beers, plus pizza, sandwiches and more. It attracts a very young crowd on weekend nights.
Schlafley Tap Room == another microbrewery (can you tell what I like?) ]
McGurk's -- An expansive menu and a gorgeous garden patio keep revelers pouring into Soulard's most beloved Irish hangout. They often have really good Irish musicians.

Check out http://www.diningstl.com/
Laclede's Landing is a good place for dinner/night life if you are near downtown - the crowd tends to be a bit younger and thre are a lot of bars with bands, but is right on the water in downtown. http://www.lacledeslanding.org/
There is also Union Station for dinner, but not much after that (I personally think). http://www.stlouisunionstation.com/go/dirlisting.cfm
There are other places, but you will have to drive/take public transport to get there, which is fairly easy with metrolink http://www.metrostlouis.org/MetroBus/Maps/SystemMaps/MapMetroLinkMR.pdf / http://www.metrostlouis.org/MetroLink/MLtimetables.asp)
U-City Loop for one - more a boho/hip place http://www.ucityloop.com/.
Central West End - (more up-scale - includes Washington St. http://www.centralwestend.co/m/)
Soulard - a number of very nice restaurants (a lot are more New Orleans's inspired; where STL has it's annual Mardi Gras celebrations) and also the neighborhood of A-B - a very cool place for even non-beer lovers. http://www.slfp.com/Soulard.htm
good Luck and have fun.

The City Museum is amazing during the day - incredible mazes and moziacs covering the walls and floors. They have a nightclub that's open on weekends for the adult crowd.
