8 Best Bars in Owensboro

“Amazing place to cool down in the summer! Loved coming here for a bite and beer after a paddle perry event or when I’m rolling through town after a kayak trip of my own in the neighboring lakes/river. I’ve always been created with a smile and love talking with the other patrons!“

“Could have been a bad night but I can't recommend this place at this point. We went for a meal during burger week and after sitting for 2 hours with no food delivered to the table it was time to vacate the place. Wish them luck but not my buck.“

“Best bar in Owensboro! I love being able to sit down and have a conversation with my friends (and be able to hear them) and the staff exceeds my expectations every time. They go above and beyond to make sure every time I’m there is better than the last. They allow outside food to be brought it so you can to dine from the best surrounding restaurants while having an amazing drink with it.“

“I have always loved Briar Patch. Since it’s been under new management some things have changed…good and bad. The hoppin John soup is not as good as it used to be. However the salad bar is very good and fresh . Has always been. Don’t care for the croutons now. Not crunchy at all. The beverage glasses are larger now and much better. Steaks are amazing! Overall a very good place to eat at! Friendly waiters and food comes out very hot and fast!“

“Wonderful food, beautiful home. We had our work Christmas party and the staff was amazing, above and beyond!“

“Stopped by for dinner and ordered the magic mushroom soup to start and ordered a small pizza (the one that comes with honey), I replaced the red peppers with mushrooms and the flavors were perfect! Pizza was cooked to perfection. Staff was very kind and attentive. Awesome food! If you’re in the area, stop by for pizza, it won’t disappoint. They also have other items of interest. I found this food better than Don Mario (the Mexican restaurant across the street and Famous Bistro), and I have been to those, not just saying it… you’re been warned lol.

Parking: After 6pm parking is free…. Don’t know about daytime hours, you would need to verify.“

“We were out-of-towners looking for some karaoke fun before visiting Holiday World the next day. From the moment I called on Thursday, the staff was very friendly and inviting. Ian is a great karaoke host and was very nice on the phone. They truly want people to come see them. We had an ABSOLUTE blast doing karaoke and it was a great crowd. The prices are fair and the food was good. We will definitely be back every time we visit Holiday World! Signed - Lindsey P, Lindsey T, Jeff (Jéfe), and Kaleb“

“This is the best mexican restaurant ever. My family and I dine in or place to go orders frequently! The food is always delicious and they have such a warm friendly atmosphere.“
