49 Best Bars near Jeffersontown

“By far the best bar in the entire city. The staff are the nicest people you could ask for, they go out of their way to make sure you’re taken care of. The atmosphere is amazing, this is the only place in the city I’ll go to shoot pool hands down. Highly recommend checking out Maple Inn!“

“Young and old - we all enjoyed ourselves!“

“Such a comfortable friendly place!“

“I'm not drinking anywhere but here. The bartender was super friendly. You dont see natural care and concern in ther service industry at this caliber.. I watched him offer a patron a ride come as well as after offering me a menu of a local spit--- offering me his personal food. I've never walked in an establishment and had the vibe scream "family" so loudly. Nothing but love here.“

“This place is always a hoot. Fridays and Saturdays karaoke is a lot of fun with genres and personalities all over the place! The dj is too funny.The bar staff are so nice and do well keeping up with the busy and loud crowds.Other nights, it's a low key place to have a drink and a chat.“

“Good food and beer selection“

“Blueberry bbq wings are simply Devine. Anxious to try blueberry bbq thighs. Cole slaw tasty. New management making fantastic changes. Chef knows how to blend taste and textures to perfection.“

“this little bar is just what I needed after a long start to my week. the regulars are friendly. the staff is top notch. 10 beers on Tap, and a wide variety of whiskeys and bourbon. along with a great kitchen menu. with daily specials on both. there is live entertainment, and KaraOke on Wednesdays. if you haven't been to this hikes point jem. you just ain't living right. come on out, they'd love to see you“

U want strong and cold drinks with great service? Check. Oh wait you want Friday and possible Saturday night KaraOke? Check, Check..this is tge place for you. And you can also smoke inside. I know all u tree huggers are screaming at me...so this may not be the place for your sensitive feelings. But for the rest of america....hell yeah....so do yourself a favor come check out the sounds. The stage, lights, and sounds is amazing. No food ( the only downside )“

“If you are into dive bars with the locals then Marma Dukes is the place for you. They have the cheapest drinks in town and the atmosphere is always a blast. Saturdays there is karaoke and it is more fun than you can imagine. This bar is a true to live CHEERS where the locals know everyone's name and it is a very homely place to chill have drinks, play pool, and even on Saturdays let loose your best impressions of famous musicians.“

“I really like this place. Staff and patrons very welcoming of kids. But parents there are a few issues you need to know about….1. Bring food. Pizza, McDs, Chick-Fil-A. The food truck on day we went didn’t have much my kid would eat and was pricey.2. Bring some sand toys and meet a friend there to keep kid entertained. Mine had more fun when another kid his age showed up.3. Your kid will think the bourbon slushies are an icee. Lol. So maybe grab one before you come.4. They don’t always have ice cream so don’t mention it.5. The sand. Mine wanted to go play on the court (which is always in use) with its beautiful, fluffy sand. There isn’t necessarily a kid sand area (that would be awesome!). Kids play on the side but this day it was very compacted. A woman there said it wasn’t always like this.6. Watch out for balls and people on court cuss. I don’t care but some might.Pros: contained place to tire out your kid while you have a beer and talk to other adults. We will be back.“

“Nice people and good food“

“Great place for awesome beer and great people. Also, there are some nearby food options including a pizza place next door(Twinspire) that delivers. For those of you looking for an NA option, they have a draft NA IPA that is top notch. Looks like they also have a stage for live music, check them out on social media for a schedule.“

“Wonderful spot. I didn't even realize it was the old Diamond's. Great food at really good prices. Lot's of pool tables and a new Golden Tee machine. Bigger inside than it looks. Very clean and had excellent service. Really neat to see the local Ole Miss Hotty Toddy group there for the bowl game :)“

“I have only been to the bar area twice and it is a pleasant atmosphere with friendly staff“

“Great fun night with friends“

“Had an amazing time celebrating my birthday last night. Will definitely be back. Great friendly atmosphere. You will get along with everyone. Wish I would have found this place sooner“

“Well it has s relaxing atmosphere and it was fun because family and friends were there. Really enjoyed it. Good music too.“

“We stopped in on the 4th of July and Alex was the only server/bartender working. His attitude and service was excellent and hopefully he made a lot of money in tips. The food was warm and the beer was cold! Thanks for the exceptional service!“

“I love all the people here! I’ve been a regular for about a year now. Amazing food, music and atmosphere.“

“Favorite club in the city!!!!“

“I have tried Indian food a couple times before (years ago), and did not like it. My husband loves Indian food, so we tried this restaurant for dinner. I cleaned my plate! Shrimp Tandoori was delicious, Naan, Tandoori Rito, Lamb Saag, Basmati Rice, Samosas, even the Chutney was wonderful, and let’s not forget Mango Lassi. The staff is also very friendly and attentive; we cannot wait to come back.“

“A great little spot that looks a little hole in the wall but is far from scummy. This place has great drinks at great prices (tequila sunrise is 4.75) and the pour is good too. The food is bar food but is honestly really good. This place quickly became my go to bar especially since it's open till 4am. Plenty of pool tables, video slots, darts both machine and standard, corn hole boards and one video golf machine. Has a smoking patio with a fan out back and is honestly just a chill place. There's Texas holdem poker nights as well if you look up RCPL.

Parking: Shares a parking lot with a few other places on the strip but out front there is plenty of parking even if the bingo hall is packed.“

“Really good , fairly priced . Little slower than hoped but not too bad . Seemed short staffed but was able to order and eat in an hour and a half over lunch time . Gluten free . Had salad and beef pinchos with chimichuri sauce. They come with rice , beans and yellow plantains but accommodated my request for lower carb options. So good .“

“Really enjoyed my experience here“

“Amazing Italian comfort food, can't wait to come back.“

“The food was outstanding, mussels, tuna tartare, big eye tuna main, haddock main, and tres leche dessert. The wait staff seemed off. Very quick and rushed visits to the table. No discussion really from the main waiter. No overview of the menu, etc. We were celebrating our anniversary and there was no mention of it until he delivered the check. We appreciated the free dessert for celebrating, but overall the staff didn't do much to make our evening feel special. The host stand attendees were awkward. Hardly an acknowledgement when we arrived and nobody (3 people standing there) looked up as well left. We felt invisible to many of the staff. Not what we've experienced here before or what we expected tonight. Again, the food was amazing, the rest left us feeling strange.“

I ordered the little 3 fish sandwich sliders and fries. The fish was OUTSTANDING!! This is the first time that I've actually eaten everything in an order since I started there 6 months ago. They regularly order from various restaurants up and down Frankfort Ave and for me, its always disappointing...but not this time. As we unpacked entree after entree everything looked and smelled WONDERFUL! This was the first time eating from DRAKE'S...but it won't be my last. I highly recommend the fish!! So for Lent right now... DRAKES cannot be beat for their FISH! Food: 5/5 | Service: 4/5“

“My husband and I are in the area for vacation and came upon this restaurant as part of a Google search for dinner options. We liked the idea of being right on the water. We actually ended up eating inside, and at first, we were unsure because it was very loud, however, that quickly became a non-issue as we met our amazing Waiter Rob Butrum (sp?) He was friendly, kind, knowledgeable of places to see and visit and turns out knows some people from where we're from! He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable, joked with us and met every request with a smile and quickly. If amazing people isn't enough, the food and cocktails were awesome too! I had a blueberry lemonade cocktail and my husband had an equally delicious and well balanced drink called a Goose Juice!! We had shrimp cocktail, a ribeye sandwich and a grill fish meal. Their Homemade beef vegetable was so good, I bought a quart to go!! We had a deliciously tart keylime pie for dessert that just topped off an already WONDERFUL experience. Overall, we do recommend this place and their food, all around friendly staff, our awesome server Rob and the beautiful atmosphere!“

“One of the beds burgers in Louisville. Really good crispy fries. Atmosphere is laid back and then some. Service was friendly but could have been a little more attentive. Minor complaint. It’s a great place to go for a burger and a beer. I will return.“

“Great place to go and listen to music and sit back and have some drinks. The food was good and the drinks were made perfectly. The two ladies working behind the bar were awesome. I will have to go back.“

“Club K9 is a super chill place to take your pups!“

“completely cool, great cocktails!“

“This is one of the easiest reviews I will ever need to write. My friends from out of town wanted to go for Indian food. I have been to MANY of Louisville's best. I looked for the BEST of the Best and found Kathmandu rated the highest at the time of this review. Why not try a place I haven't been yet and write a review. We arrived around 6pm on a Wednesday night. It was a quaint place, clean and very comfortable with the inviting, colorful lights, yet not too bright. As soon as I stepped in the door, my senses started dancing. Besides being a small restaurant, the kitchen was close by. My wife and I and our friends from out of town found a booth and anticipated some good food, trusting the reviews to be valid. Ujina, was our server and host. She was very delightful and couldn't have done a better job making our visit rewarding. Ujina took our beverage order. We all asked for water. Ujina replied, with ice, or no ice? I like that. This is going to be a very detailed experience. She then took our food order which when I took my turn, added a couple appetizers, namely Onion Pakora's and Fried Mo Mo's. They were brought out first with some tasty sauces. We all enjoyed them very much. Our entrees arrived soon after the appetizers. I ordered Chicken Karahi, which is one of the BEST dishes I ever had ANY where. The chicken was quality chunks of goodness, the flavor unmatched and sauce thick enough to sop my garlic Naan in. We ALL ordered garlic Naan. Both couples ate one order and had another order left to take home along with left over entrees that came with basmati rice. My wife ordered Chicken Curry like she usually does and said this one was different than any other and Better. Our friends ordered Goat Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala which they were thrilled with. Another couple came in shortly after we arrived and sat on the opposite side of the restaurant. Other than that it was quiet. When we were ready to leave, I paid the bill, got a Military discount and spoke with the Owner/Chef, Purna. I can tell he cares about what he does and wants everything to be the BEST it can be. Kathmandu lives up to the highest reviews and IS the BEST Indian food in Louisville. The ambiance is very nice and the service is second to none. We never needed to look for Ujina for anything. She was there before we ever asked, filling our cups. I can't say enough about the texture and taste of the food. My entrée could only have been better with some MORE sauce, which I told Purna. He said next time ask for some more when ordered. The sauce is liquid gold. The veggies were perfect and the chicken was premium. I can't wait to go back and try something other offerings.“

“our server Brandon was excellent. Very attentive and friendly. food was great and service was fast.“

“The service was great and the food was wonderful, it was our first time eating there and planning on coming back. It would be better if you all had a handicap accessible entrance to the restaurant and handicap accessible bathrooms for guests that are handicap“

“Such a wonderful place to have some fun and listen to some awesome music

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options to pick from

Parking: Plenty of parking in that parking lot lots of parking

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessible for wheelchair“

“My wife and I had a great experience here. We have been here several times and the service and food has been excellent! Rachel was our server and she took great care of us. She checked in on us plenty of times and was very accommodating. We will definitely go back soon. Highly recommend the craft beer selection they brew themselves too!“

“This is the second time my wife and I have been here and I’ll say it’s been awesome! We had jasmine as our game attendant both times and she is absolutely wonderful! She is super nice and went out of her way to make sure that we got all new games on both trips here!!“

“Stopped at Chuy's for a quick dinner before my friend went back to Evansville. We were quoted a wait time of 20 - 30 minutes. We were seated in 10. Our server was attentive and friendly, despite being busy. The food was exceptional. The service was stellar. This visit definitely made me want to come back more often.“

“Really a great spot. We were there in between lunch and 5pm so it wasn't busy. The beer was cold and the appetizers were hot. Really good toasted ravioli. And the service was perfect. Worth going out of your way to eat and kick back for.“

“I've been a patron of this bar for years, so it's difficult to give an objective review. Friday's and Saturdays, they have karaoke, and the bar rocks! During the week, it's more of a laid-back crowd. Lots of regulars playing pool and just sitting having conversations. They also have darts and a KY lottery machine if you like keno and such. For the time being, they have the "skills " games that the state will soon remove. The main bartenders have been there for years! That says a lot about the bar. The daytime regulars all know each other, making it a comfortable environment. The weekends get very busy at night, but Krista and her daughter Marissa handle the crowd with ease.Some of the favorite foods are pizza, wings, potato skins, brats, and burgers. Steve-o, cooks soups from time to time, like bean, chicken noodle, or chili. For St. Patty's Day, his cornbeef and cabbage rocks! Give More Shenanigans a try sometime. It's on Bardstown Road, two doors north of Breckenridge Lane, with lots of parking in the rear and easy in and outs to the streets.

Kid-friendliness: It is a bar, so no kids are allowed.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible from the back parking lot.“

“Best hangout in Louisville! Staff are awesome and you'll find your 2nd family there. Plus $2 chili dogs never hurt on game days“

“Stopped here after a movie with some friends. It was an hour before closing so I expected worse but it wasn’t too bad. I took a risk with a 6 oz. sirloin (wasn’t entirely sure how good the steaks would be here since I’d never had a Chili’s steak) and it was actually pretty delicious. However this looked like the smallest 6 oz. sirloin I’d ever received in the many times I’ve ordered steak from other places in the past. I didn’t complain though and even tipped 22% at the end of my transaction. I would eat there again, except the dip trio I ordered didn’t leave me craving more. As a regular at authentic Mexican restaurants, this wasn’t the best queso I’ve ever had so would not recommend that. You can find much better alternatives elsewhere, so unless you’re not in a position to wait I’d pass the queso up. The guac I was served looked and even tasted good but taste wise, I’ve made it so much in the past that I’m a bit biased. I like mine better. This will get you by in a scrape though. It’s some of the better Tex-Mex guac I’ve tried. All in all my experience was positive.“

“Really enjoyed our lunch there today! food was fresh and delicious. service was great!“

“Brad is the best bartender Ive ever had. His demeanor, enthusiasm, and charisma are nothing short of textbook professionalism. He solely made the experience impeccable. Not only will I return, but I will tell anyone whos got ears to listen that this was the best experience humanly possible. Whatever this man is paid it aint enough. Kendell was great too“

“We had an excellent experience at drakes. our server was excellent. Olivia was sweet and helpful and just over all a very good server. she is an asset to the restaurant. we had the chicken sandwich, the fish tacos and the Buffalo mac and cheese. it was served quickly and was very good. we finished it off with a cookie and ice cream. it was all so good. such a good meal, we will absolutely be back. highly recommend this place.“
