50 Best Sports Bars near St. Matthews

“I haven't been here in probably 10years. I remember the pizza, particularly the crust being top notch. I believe they've changed the recipe, though it was still very good. I hated that they didn't have a menu, we had to scan the little code on our phone to see what to order and worse we had to scan a separate little code to see the drinks, so I went with water and bypassed one scan. Otherwise, there weren't really any complaints. It was quite busy. Everyone seemed friendly enough and it was your typical sports bar without much memorabilia on the walls. The food was good, ok portions, average prices.“

“this was our first time there we surprised my oldest son who turned 13 today (4-17) the servers were very nice and food was amazing“

“Just had a wonderful experience, the staff was awesome at explaining everything to us as newbies. Took my husband axe throwing for Father’s Day and we had a blast! The atmosphere was lowkey and unassuming, and the other players were awesome at rooting everyone on despite us all being strangers. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose you’ll be guaranteed to have fun no matter what. The whole setup is so innovative but also very user friendly. We will definitely be back!“

“We’ve been here so many times and have always loved it.

Tonight, we tried to just our fantasy football draft with them but our league failed to show. We’d planned on 15 but not even half showed up. But this team still honored their fantasy football draft party for us - gave us a TV to watch the game we wanted (and this went way beyond the call of service) and they still honored their discounts.

We had actually no idea they did these thing for fantasy football drafts, so if you are drafting soon. You need to go here! Last minute. Amazing management and waitress staff.

We love bungalows and will forever be customers.

Killed it guys. Amazing work.“

“We loved this bar! We were traveling from MN and wanted to watch the Vikings game. We found the Parlay and loved hanging there long after the game was over. Excellent drinks! And the 3 owners working there were so awesome!“

“Great Atmosphere for the whole family!“

“this place is awesome! their fried pickles are the best I've had from anywhere ever. all the food and drinks are reasonably priced and portioned pretty well. the staff is great and always gives good service. the place is dog friendly as well. it been a favorite weekend hangout for some time now. if your in the area, you should stop in.“

“delightful coffee and food options“

“I've been twice in the last week and a couple of the female servers / bartenders just act like they don't really want to be their. They were helpful but it they made me feel like they were doing me a favor by doing so. And they seem to be quick to tell you "No we can't do / help with that". Instead of trying to figure out how to say yes. I wanted to ask them, are you an American or an American't. But overall we had a great time both times. Gutter Fries: Consider a Golden Crinkle fry instead of the season straight fries.“

“Great neighborhood bar, good food, and wonderful people! Sports too!“

“I got takeout and the food was exceptional. I also wanted to compliment the outstanding employee who served me today named Caroline. I accidentally ordered the wrong item Through the online ordering, and she was so helpful and assisted me in correcting my order and getting what I wanted. Despite the fact that they were about to close, she still provided outstanding service and a great smile! Thank you!“

“I do NOT recommend this place. We went with a party of 15 this afternoon and had a truly disappointing, awful experience. We arrived shortly after they opened. We were the only ones on the outside patio the entire visit (just shy of 3 hours) and the inside dining room never got very busy, but you'd never guess by how terrible the service was. It took nearly 2 hours for (most of) our food to come out, and even then, several orders were wrong. Our drinks were rarely filled. Our waitress and other staff may have been stretched too thin, but did the manager ever come out to speak with us or try to make things right even once? nope! The food and beer prices are high and not worth the price. (Food arrived cool and tasted ok... not worth the prices.) No apologies were offered before we left after paying our expensive tabs. We will not be back. Don't waste your time! They clearly don't care about getting return customers.“

“Love all of the choices of different versions of chicken“

“Great burgers & wings! Wonderful service“

“Great atmosphere and friendly staff“

“Friendly local eatery which supports the community!“

“great place! Great food and atmosphere!“

“I placed an online order that was sent to door dash to deliver. When I got my order the dasher took a BITE of my boyfriend’s personal pan pizza, took my daughter’s pepperoni pizza, and my extra garlic bread. Here is the kicker I TIPPED 15% when I checked out, SO I’M INSTANTLY IRRITATED!! I called Derby City ofc they didn’t answer because it’s a busy Friday night. When I got there and told them what happened and showed them the food I received, the manager immediately called Door Dash and got the driver banned from delivering at any of their stores. At 9:54PM right as they were preparing to close they made my entire order over and gave us FREE brownies & drinks. The manager took it a step further and refunded my money on her own. I appreciate everyone there for going above and beyond to make it right, you guys are appreciated! Everything was fresh & delicious.“

“I seen new owners & not impressed with the expensive meals. the waitress spoke no English at all so couldn't even understand I said Nachos & wings smh, then as we were the only customers there our simple 3 meals took literally an hr wait before I had to ask about food, then another 30min. lunch hr so they didn't care I had to go to work. It was very dirty. Not the same as it used to be.“

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

“first time there and our waiter AJ was phenomenal! the watermelon redbull margarita was so delicious. the sweet bay fries were too good to share and the chicken bacon ranch tacos were so yummy. loved the vibe, atmosphere. will definitely be back (on the first Sunday of every month from now on 😂) 5 ⭐ across the board.“

“Me and boyfriend came in for date night and it was absolutely wonderful! We did the 2 for $25. It was a great deal! Our server was mellisa, she took amazing care of us! And even checked on us when we were leaving! She even made sure the drink I got was made the way I wanted! We will be back! First time ever at Applebees!“

“My husband and I went there tonight for a spontaneous late night dinner and it was amazing! The bartender was so nice! The food was soo good! We were impressed and will definitely be back!“

“Great place to stop in, grab meal with your family. Or if you are alone, grab a beer and burger with fries. Or a group friends, grab a pizza and hangout like old times. Pool tournaments, on Sunday at 6pm, and on Thursday at 7pm. If you want to sing,Karaoke with Darius on Thursdays at 8pm. Saturday nights - they usually have a band.“

“Fun, clean, safe atmosphere! Great place to grab a bite with the kids and then a beer (or several) later on. TV set up is solid, great bar games (Pool, Golden Tee) and it has the #1 ranked burger in the city of louisville!“

“We like to go out to different places for a Sunday Breakfast. We tried this one today and it was great. The food was hot, and the portions were the right size. We will be adding this to our Sunday Breakfast list of places to go to.“

“Good bar food, great patrons to shoot pool with, and even karaoke?! Not much more I can personally ask for with a bar. (A professional custom martini list would be all.) They have it going on here. Probably my favorite bar in Louisville, thus far. Will be back! Shoutout to the bartenders, especially Maddie.“

“Always delicious, fresh food! Our family loves all the pizza we have tried! They have great wings and a big salad which is perfect to satisfy everyone. Highly recommend!!!“

“Had a great experience at Roosters in Clarksville! The atmosphere is fun and casual, and it’s a great place to come in for a good meal, especially if you’re craving wings. 🍗🔥

The Donkey Wings were definitely the highlight. They were big, meaty, cooked perfectly, and had great flavor. You get a really good portion, so you definitely won’t leave feeling like you didn’t get your money’s worth. The chicken was juicy on the inside with just the right amount of crispiness on the outside.

Everything we had was fresh and tasty, and the service was friendly and attentive. I also really like the overall atmosphere at Roosters. It’s the kind of place where you can relax, watch some sports, have a few laughs, and enjoy a good meal without it feeling too formal.

If you’re in the Clarksville area and looking for some really good wings, I’d definitely recommend giving Roosters a try. The Donkey Wings alone are worth coming back for!“

“Love it! Great atmosphere, food is awesome!“

“Great neighborhood pizza place and bar. We ordered house salad, wings, pizza, and spaghetti for the kids. Everything was delicious. Everyone from the patrons to the staff were very friendly and inviting. Gave me a “Cheers” vibe where everybody knows your name. The food was excellent and there is a nice beverage selection behind the bar. Super fun atmosphere with any and every sporting event you want to watch. 10/10, I do recommend. This wasn’t my first time here and it won’t be my last. Everyone in my family loved it.“

“Great bar, yummy food, friendly staff, amazing bands and cool new stage. Always a good time!!!“

“Always love Hoops! Great food, great service, cold beer, reasonable prices!!“

“Service and food was excellent!!“

“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.“

“Looked for a local place to grab a quick bite to eat and a cold drink. Awesome service and the Makers Mark burger was delicious.
Had myself a West Sixth IPA an and the wife had a margarita

We had our pups with us and the pet friendly patio was perfect. Our server brought out a water dish.“

“Love love this place. Karaoke is awesome, food is great. Great atmosphere.“

“Probably the best chilli I’ve had in any place in Louisville drove all the way from the other side of town and was not disappointed 10/10 food was amazing and so was the staff!“

“We just came in from Minnesota, Toya was our bartender. She was amazing!! Friendly, fun, energetic and fun. I asked her if she had a specialty shot we could try and she enthusiastically said “yes”! She made us a “snow cone shot”. It was AMAZING!!!! Super yummy and delicious. I told her she should call it “The Toya Snow Cone Shot”. Very fun atmosphere with good people. Highly recommend.“
