50 Best Bars near Floyds Knobs

“Comfort Food & The BEST Staff! Bobbi, was our waitress & we loved her sense of humor. The owner Sam, was out bussing tables, meeting, and greeting customers. We will definitely be back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tartan House: My New Personality Trait. You know those bars where you walk in and immediately think, "Oh, this is the spot?" Yeah, that’s Tartan House. From the moment you step inside, you just know your night is about to level up. ✨ The cocktails?? Unreal. 🍸 Like, sip once, immediately question every basic drink you’ve ever had kind of unreal. The bartenders? Straight-up artists. They craft drinks so good, it’s almost rude how effortlessly cool they make it look. And the vibe?? Chef’s kiss. 👌 It’s giving classy but not pretentious, cozy but still a little mysterious—basically, the kind of place where you could have a deep life talk or plot world domination, depending on the drink. 😏🔥 Final thoughts: If you haven’t been to Tartan House yet, fix that immediately. This isn’t just a bar, it’s a whole experience. Your taste buds deserve this. 🍹💃“

“We love Decade and hope they bring back the happy hour burger thing they had going for a while. The drawback is the same as so many local restaurants that we want to support - the prices are getting out of control, especially for cocktails. Help us help you!“

“As we all know, today I went to Planet of the Tapes. It was a cool summer day and my cousin and I tasked ourselves to find a record store that was open. We did and we went there, then left. That part had little to nothing to do with Planet of the Tapes. We also ate kebabs which is another meaningless fact but not for the bit where I spied a bidet in the bathroom when I went teetee. I too own a bidet and love it! I don’t know if planet of the tapes has a bidet, but what they do have is an excellent unique atmosphere, great tunes that are at the precise decibel of maximum listening pleasure, drinks that are the perfect mix of booze to mix ratio if you are into that sort of thing, and did I mention moon pies? I know what you’re thinking. Chris, there are moon pies at Publix. Why don’t we just drink there? I’ll tell you why…Publix doesn’t have excellent events going on frequently. Where the last time you got to watch a gore movie at Publix. Probably only once and you had to stream it on your tablet didn’t you….and I bet you watched it alone and everyone thought you were shoplifting. I don’t frequent this side of town but there used to be a big fun bar beside it called Jillian’s or something, I can’t remember, anyway ample parking so I don’t have to Uber because I can’t parallel park. Let me tell you something else. If you don’t go here and see what all the fuss is about I will tell everyone that you have the hots for your stepmom and secretly draw pictures of her gams all day then spray her perfume on them. PS I noticed one of the tags above says rooftop. Yes, they have a roof on top.“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“All good, no complaints try it out“

“Great experience away from the tourist traps. They bring Whiskey to a art form. Hidden gem in my opinion.“

“Great place to come by boat.“

“People are really friendly they make u feel at home, the atmosphere is amazing, and they always have great live music, Wednesdays are bingo nights and Thursdays they have open mike, hope to see u all there“

“This is the first time my partner and I have been to Louisville and we decided to stop by Meta. If you too decide to stop by you'll be met with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The bartenders were so chill and willing to work with us to get our drinks just how we'd like them. Nataleigh and Khryss were super awesome and made my partner and I feel so welcome! Thank you guys so much for making our time in Louisville that much better! We hope to see you again next time we visit!“

“Fun place run by good people, Fantastic bartenders and a great atmosphere. Sunday Sinema is my pick to click !!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Cheese & Vibes? Say Less. I walked into Cultured thinking I’d have a cute little cheese moment—and walked out a full-blown dairy enthusiast. 🧀✨ If you love great wine, perfectly curated cheese boards, and an atmosphere that makes you feel effortlessly cool, welcome to your new obsession. The selection?? Next level. Every cheese, every pairing, every sip of wine feels intentional, elevated, and just straight-up delicious. Like, I took one bite and immediately started questioning why I ever settled for basic grocery store cheese. (I’ve changed. I’m different now.) And the vibe?? Absolutely flawless. It’s giving "I’m sophisticated but also fun"—the kind of place where you could have a romantic date, a gossip-filled wine night, or just sit alone and pretend you’re the mysterious lead in an indie film. 🎭🍷 Final thoughts? Cultured isn’t just a wine & cheese shop—it’s a lifestyle. If you haven’t been yet, grab your people (or just yourself, no shame) and go treat your taste buds to something truly elite. 🧀🍷🔥“

“Such an interesting place! Absolutely a wonderful spot for locals and visitors alike. The staff here are friendly and fast. The atmosphere is clearly well thought out, but not overly fussy. It’s a great place that one could enjoy on their own, or with the whole famn damily! I’ve only had a chance to visit once, but I’ll definitely be visiting again and again! You should go!“

“They make their craft cocktail syrups in house & the quality surpasses my expectations every time! Their food never disappoints & you can tell that their staff cares and we always have an amazing time when we visit here.“

“band nights and atmosphere“

“Fun trivia on Wednesday’s!“

“I was there this week for an event. The hotel was fabulous. Here’s what made it even better… I needed to make a purchase at the Trading Post on the third floor. I received the absolute best customer service from Tony Greenwell, and his associate Kyle… I can’t tell you how much I appreciate their level of customer service and professionalism. I love Louisville and travel there a few times a year for work… Hoping to stay at this hotel again so that I can receive the same level of customer service each and every time. Thank you, gentlemen, once again.“

“We were in town for a bourbon trail trip, for which we used Matson & Gilman for our trip planning. Part of our itinerary was a private / guided tasting at Trouble Bar. Our hose, Nicole, was extremely engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about the pours that we had and answered all of our questions. We had a great time here and would recommend it to anyone in the area.“

“Everyone is welcome great atmosphere and food“

“Incredible place from top to bottom! They went above and beyond accommodating our group. Ami was sensational! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“We had a cheeseburger and we shared the hot wings. We had the wings shaken in buffalo sauce and they were perfect. The cheeseburger was so good and had been hand pattied. The bar had several beers on tap.We had good service and the prices were extremely reasonable!It is a tavern. So it is not too kid friendly.“

“One of my favorite places to hang out. I always feel safe there. Great prices on drinks wonderful back patio.“

“Hands down one of the most unique eclectic literal gems of Louisville“

“We went here for a bingo event and had an absolute blast! I wont lie, when we first walked in the vibe just seemed off. We weren't greeted by anyone and had no clue where to sit or how to order drinks or food. We finally asked one of the staff members and got it all figured out. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was very friendly! The bingo event was so much fun and we won a bunch of really cool prizes! We will definitely be returning!“

“The bar itself is wonderful, great music, atmosphere. But if you’re a girl looking to ride the bull, don’t attempt to if the blonde girl with fluttering fake eyelashes who looks like she hates her job is behind the control center. She didn’t give any girl a chance, she immediately threw them off unless you were one of her friends of course. Everyone should get the same treatment. They also charge a cover charge to get in, which is understandable but it automatically trys to get you to tip 25% for a cover charge…“

“One of the best places I’ve worked at! Very warm and welcoming environment. Highly recommend“

“This was a beautiful bar located inside the Omni hotel decorated like a classic library. The atmosphere is top notch and has a very relaxed feel. The bartender was kind and made amazing drinks. The specialty cocktail list is limited but we tried three of them and loved each of them. The alcohol and ingredients they use is high quality, so expect an amazing drink. If you are in the hotel district downtown, I highly recommend visiting this bar for a quick drink or even just to relax in the space.“

“Best show in town on a Saturday night!“

“Loved this little dive bar I actually had to go back in the same day. Good priced drinks, friendly people, clean place, and great bartender. If you like being comfortable and enjoying a drink, this is the place to go. Just didn’t see any draft beers“

“Everyone is very friendly the beautiful ladies behind the bar are awesome. Come try it out if you don’t like it you can go but I think you will stay“

“Bar Genevieve in Louisville offers a charming, intimate setting with a thoughtfully curated cocktail menu. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening out. Their inventive drinks, paired with excellent service, make for a memorable experience. A hidden gem for cocktail lovers in the city.“

“This place is a 10/10! The atmosphere and staff were AMAZING!! We came to Louisville for the day to find my wedding dress. After I said yes to the dress we decided to try Mussel and Burger Bar! They made my day 1000x extra special, took care of my food and drinks, and even gave me a platter of desserts to try! We are coming back to Louisville for my bachelorette and we will definitely be visiting this place again! The seafood burger was also delicious!“

“Heaven on earthquake. God bless Andy and his wonderful wife Marggie. ?“

“Michaela is the best bartender ever. She had a great hospitality and was super accommodating to her customers! She is so sweet!!“

“Unique atmosphere, great cocktails with a wide selection, and the staff was extremely friendly. The owner took the time to give us a little history about the speakeasy and showed us the “special entrance”. Very laid back atmosphere with different rooms for privacy for your group, you can visually see the original wood beams- super cool! Large bourbon selection too!“

“I enjoy the people in 100 Pipers they are really friendly and most of them love to get up and dance. The drinks are reasonable, security is around and they keep the bathrooms clean. Great music, need work on balancing the pool table. It's a very mature atmosphere.“

“The Old Forester Distillery was great - clean, sleek, and beautiful! I wanted to give a shout out to the bar in it though because they were fantastic! We got a tasting and already love their bourbon as it is, the 1920 is a go to sipping whiskey, so it was nice tasting some of their other bourbons too. Thanks for a wonderful experience!“

“live entertainment excellent“

“Dancers are beautiful, friendly and very professional. Highly recommend CeCe or Rose, especially for lap dance. Establishment is very clean and neat. By far the best one I have been to in years, very friendly all around, even the bar tender was beautiful“

“We came to eat lunch and contribute to a benefit. What we found was a 'little teasure'. The food was amazing, the staff was exceptional. Very friendly staff and patrons. It was clean as a pin and the ambiance lacked nothing. From the service to the music and food.....I applaud Steve's Bar & Grill. Our 1st visit...but NOT our last! GREAT PLACE, HIGHLY RECOMMEND. 🎗“

“Salmon nuggets with the traditional potato wedges. Salmon nuggets were meaty & soft with "The Club" special sauce - it is tangy. It had capers and something kinda minty - pretty good sauce if you don't mind the capers - gave it 4⭐ cause I like a light spicy with the special sauce. Overall I would get it again.“
