“Amazing seafood, appetizers and desserts (bread pudding is phenomenal)! A must is having Samantha at Sam’s Food & Spirits as our server. Hands down the best food and service anywhere around! We are so glad we stumbled on this place. The manager Sam came and met us personally as well. The entire experience is worth the drive!“

“I’ve eaten at many of Louisville’s top restaurants, but my wife and I agree that this takes our #1 spot due to a combination of the excellent food, the price compared to other similar places, and the super friendly service. Everything we had was excellent, and the cocktails were also incredibly interesting and complex. I’d highly recommend!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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. 🧀🍷🔥“

“Went here to see a show for my partners 21st birthday and the staff were absolutely amazing! Zach was incredibly friendly and helpful, and made a mean cocktail. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for great music and even better drinks!“

“I recently went here with my family and it was delightful! I don’t even drink bourbon but had a great time. Everyone else in my party LOVED their cocktail. Our bartender, Allison, was so kind and went above and beyond for us and truly made the entire experience exceptional! I highly recommend going here and asking for Allison. She’ll take good care of you.“

“We had a great experience! The buffalo chicken egg rolls are a must get!“

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

“band nights and atmosphere“

“We went on a Thursday just after happy hour (6pm) and the place was packed! Also because they do trivia on Thursday. But a fun happy hip crowd! Luckily we got a booth. Nautical theme throughout this shotgun style bar/restaurant. You order at the bar, they give you a number and your drinks and food are brought to your table. Fun drinks and a variety of beers. Wait staff were efficient and helpful when one order was misunderstood. We were hungry and I was happy the special that night we're wings. Glazed and sprinkled with sesame seeds they were absolutely delicious! Other members in our group got mini corndogs..homemade as well as one of the specialty hot dogs. A fun discovery in NULU.“

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

“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.“

“My favorite weekday drinking dive for over 12 years. Something different every late night to entertain; live music, karaoke, movie night, Jeopardy watch party, weekly cyclist night. Sometimes even just some free drop off pizza from DiOrios. Right on the corner of Germantown and Paristown and just up the street from Old Forester concert hall. This bar is also home of the "Iceberg" , a Titanic inspired cocktail! Some theme decorations (Lego ship!) along the back of bar. Also a great collection of Star Wars figurines on the other half of back bar. Outside food welcome but they do have hot dogs and chili dogs along with a wall of snacks if you need something in your tummy before you throw down some beer etc. Small, but quaint patio in the back. As you head to that patio you'll walk through a cozy movie room that displays posters of past Sunday Cinema movies that are shown there every Sunday at 8. This neighborhood bar doesn't pretend! It's family, it's welcoming, it's a dive, it's fun and so“

“Had a pharmaceutical event there today and the service was top notch ! Great food and the drinks are fantastic 🍷“

“Library Bar stayed PACKED the entire time I was staying at the omni which honestly told me everything I needed to know about the spot.

We wanted to check out the speakeasy too but it ended up booked for a private event which was tragic for me personally because I already mentally prepared myself to act mysterious in low lighting.

I ordered Pharaoh’s Dream, or Plane? Prayer? Something biblical and expensive sounding, and it was GREAT. Dangerously great actually. Had I not been limiting myself I absolutely would’ve gotten tore up!

The crowd felt a little standoffish but there was a conference happening at the Omni that week so honestly I think a lot of networking and corporate mingling was happening more than socializing.

Still, the drinks and atmosphere carried the experience.“

“I did the ‘Evan Williams Traditional Tour & Bourbon Tasting’ the host/guide was Mark from Indiana (I forgot his last name initial). The tour was better than what I expected it to be it had a good balance of just an overview of how the bourbon is produced for those who do not know but I liked the history about Evan Williams himself and some of the significant events that occurred around the time the bourbon started to be produced. Mark also gave some history of the city as well which I thought was cool and informative too. He also gives good suggestions on which bourbons can only be purchased there or at a distillery which was helpful. The one that they produce for the Japanese market is 🔥 in case anyone was wondering 😊“

“Went Wednesday and Thursday while staying at The Galt House Hotel but had terrible experience today, Friday, terrible service and nachos so salty we couldn’t eat. Server and manager didn’t seem to care.“

“I've known the owner for well over a decade. It's a great place.“

“Hidden gem! Do not hesitate.“

“Fun, friendly, great times and wonderful bartenders~“

“A must! if you are in Bonita. This place has a wonderful selection of appetizers and main courses. We absolutely love the hummus and they even have gluten free cauliflower pita which is out of this world. Pizza selection is very creative and the drinks are so much fun. As for the staff, AMAZING! Anthony is absolutely wonderful. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a 2026 Michelin star 🌟 experience in Bonita.“

“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.“

“Great atmosphere,great owners I met. very helpful. Deck was beautiful outside. loved the outside decor and vibe. can't wait to go back. especially when it warms up more.“

“Limited menu, but great food!“

“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!“

“Love this place! Amazing staff 😁“

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

“Amazing food and atmosphere. The beer selection is always on point!“

“Hip atmosphere! it's like a box of chocolates...Wish there were more bars like this..kinda like bars in Nashville vibe.. searching for new undiscovered talents!“

“Had a great time on what ended up being a private tour for my wife and I since no one else signed up. I'd give it 5 stars if this were Yelp. Really interesting story on their more recent challenges and how they have thrived/survived. They have some great whiskeys to try and some of their unique finished stuff is incredible. If I had one complaint, it would be the plastic tasting cups.“

“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.“

“Wonderful ambience and drinks. The appetizer we got was amazing too!“

“Sat outside. Perfect weather for lunch. Food delicious as always. Had hush puppies as appetizer for the table. First time trying. Excellent. My favorite for main course, the fish and chips. Delicious as always. Highly recommend Franny's anytime.“

“We had a fantastic dinner, enjoyed a champagne toast for our special day, followed by incredible 45 day dry-aged steak from a local farm. Dinner was followed with the baked chocolate chip & pecan pie. Our server, Mr. Edwin, guided us masterfully through the menu and service and Tony, the manager ensured all went smoothly. Overall, it’s a beautiful restaurant with an excellent staff all working together at a high level rarely seen these days.“

“Friendly atmosphere, good food and great staff.“

“Jane has a lifelong customer out of my friends and me! We sprung a huge group of people on them on a Saturday night after our wedding (our after party reservation was sadly canceled at another bar). They quickly adjusted and took incredible care of us. The staff was wildly friendly and the vibes were pitch-perfect on their back patio. We loved it so much we went back twice the next day and enjoyed talking to their bartenders in a quieter setting. We love a welcoming dive! Thanks for everything, Chewy & Jane staff!“

“Fun neighborhood bar where everyone stops in to eat grab a drink or watch sports shoot some pool or just meet up with some friends and hang out the bartender Angie is very nice and friendly and the cook hey K D is a very good cook delicious food I may add“

“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. 🎗“
