Old Louisville Tavern

A quick refresh but still a great experience. I hate that it's been such a long time coming back, which has more to do with distance from home. My family and parents met here per a suggestion from me and my son. We had a great space in the corner to be together but not squished on top of each other or another table. I appreciated the variety on the menu since we invited the fuller crew.I couldn't say no to the Knocker Burger and I'm telling you - 1/2 lb burgers are a lot!! The other items that got gobbled up were the Po Boy sandwich, BBQ burger, Patty Melt, crocks of Mac and Cheese, Wedge Salads and Scotty Stack. We left with zero boxes ... just sayin'Tap water here is odd. I'd suggest a soda or beer with your meal.Service was great and there's plenty of people around to take care of the crowd. Seating upstairs. Street parking. Patio tables for better weather.Put this on your burger list!

The most burger burger there is. Imagine a cartoon burger in it's perfection of simplicity and wonder. Old Louisville Tavern has it. Wendy's wishes it's Spongebob Crabby Patty Meal could be as good and classic as these. All in all the food is solid whether you dine in or grab this to go. It travels well, taste great no matter where you are. So, treat yourself, and don't forget to get the crazy crispy delicious onion rings!

Im not normally in Old Louisville but I had them on my list to try. I came on a weekday evening. It was busy inside but not every table or barstool was filled. The busyness ebbed and flowed. They do show a lot of sports on their TVs but they have the vibe of a neighborhood bar. College football hadn't yet started but it would be a draw to come in and watch a game. They had a neon light of the Cardinal mascot.My friend and I sat down at a table and immediately, the server came and cleaned the table. I got the grilled chicken sandwich since our server said it's marinated and very juicy while my friend got Alfredo. Food came out fast! I loved my chicken! Although the meat looked a bit small. Loads of crunchy fries though! I devoured those.My friend's Alfredo was delicious! It had bacon bits in it and was really flavorful.Prices seemed reasonable. I'd come back again to sit on their patio on a nice, cool day. I liked the vibe. It feels like a hole in the wall. Not sure if that's true since it's near campus but it felt like a hidden gem.Parking is parallel around here. I parked maybe a couple cars away from the entrance. Feels like a quiet area.I'll be back!

Food is mediocre at best. Most items lack seasoning or fail to stand out. In my opinion they fail to make the "good for bar food" level. It's just meh. If you are someone who needs food to be bland this might be a great spot for you.

As we wandered around looking at historic homes in the area, we walked into this cool little place for a sandwich and a beer. To our surprise, they offered some great fare at a reasonable price and the bourbon shelf was full of great pours too! I would invite everyone to take a peek at this home town place if they are venturing in the area!

This place is amazing for a whiskey lover from Texas. Whiskey menu is just over the top amazing and the qty of what they has is jaw dropping. Along with that the burgers and fries are superb.

Really enjoyed this Tavern. Good service and very good food. Onion Soup 5 out of 5. Service was excellent. Park on the street.

Nice neighborhood spot for drinks and a meal. I had an excellent burger and the others enjoyed salads and a steak. Service was prompt. We liked sitting on the patio. The only negative was the lack of outdoor lighting making completion of our meal a little tricky.

We found our new fried pickle spot!! My partner and I love fried pickles but what we love the most are the fried pickles SPEARS -- the chips are passable but we spears are far superior. We overjoyed to have found fried pickles spears at Old Louisville Tavern. Best part, they're not heavily battered -- perfect in every way! During our visit we also tried the dry rub wings, Mac and cheese, and Asian salad. Their wings were actually decent as well. The Asian salad, we can do without -- was really missing some type of sesame Asian zing. I'm excited to frequent this spot during football season.They also have an outdoor patio, was great on a warm day and very clean/well maintained.

We were in town for the Kentucky Farm Show. Much to my surprise, there were VERY few places to eat. We stumbled upon this tavern and figured it would be fine. We sat at the bar and had a great barmaid. We did have one person in the party have an empty drink for half the meal but it was ok. The food was delicious. Price is average for food these days. Would recommend!
