Stevie Ray's Blues Bar

My fiance and I were visiting Louisville and wanted to try a bunch of local spots. We wandered upon Stevie Ray's and my fiance being a fan of his music, we decided to stop in. There was a live band playing but it wasn't really our speed, so we were a bit caught off guard at the entry fee. Inside it had a cool, darker vibe. When we visited it was around Halloween, so they had some holiday decor. I ordered two drinks, a vodka pineapple and a martini that was on an old menu I found online. The bartender didn't know how to make it as she was newer, but she found a recipe for it. I appreciated her looking it up! My fiance stuck with the bourbon special of the night, which was high octane! This is definitely a spot for strong drinks!

Great music. Interesting people. Strong drinks. Reasonable prices. Amazing staff. Go here.

If you are a "bluesman" it is a must visit! Not just the music, but the vibe. You really feel you have been to the crossroads here.No drama, no fights, no harsh lighting. Just blues and brews. The way it should be. The kinda place Leadbelly,Cooker, or BB would play.

My husband and I visited Stevie Ray's with a large group of co-workers. Despite it being a busy Saturday night we didn't have any issue grabbing high top tables together. We did have to pay cover of $8 each. When we first arrived the dance floor was busy, with popular tunes being played from a radio playlist. Had that continued we would've stayed on the floor longer, but a band played sets as well. Good enough music but not ideal for dancing. Typical old school divey bar with plenty of beers and liquor to choose from, and of course a crowd doing periodic shots. It's been years since my last visit and it provided a good venue for us to continue conversations and wind down for the night.

Do you want to have a good time, good drinks, and great live music? Then make sure you go to Stevie Ray's when you're in Louisville. Myself, husband, and another couple were on vacation to do The Bourbon Trail during the days, wanted to seek out some live music at night. I heard about Stevie Ray's, and gave it a try. No cover (Thursday), bartender was super friendly and accommodating (thank you for those delicious Lemon Drops), and the band was playing classic rock with some pop towards the end of the evening. We shut the place down, definitely not crowded, but the patrons were also so nice, and liked me and my girlfriend's enthusiasm, lol. I totally recommend Stevie Ray's!

This place was great!! The only live music in Louisville. No food but the drinks and the prices were great. Definitely stop by if you are in town.

I loved this place! The live jazz music is so great! Our server was wonderful and the over atmosphere is a fun one.

First visit to see one of my favorite bands Soul Circus. We called ahead reservation. Tables $20 buck and well worth every cent. Limited seating. Drinks were tasty and a good pour. Service was awesome Casey and Becca thanks again. Fun private patio AKA " Voo Doo patio" see pic of wall art. Seating tables have umbrellas. Street parking free after 4 pm. Original brick walls with music pics of artists who had previously performed there and framed concert bills posters posters of many local and national artists shows from decades ago. Facilities cleanNo lot parking I seen. Great service. Definitely check it out especially if your looking for the local music scene.

Great music great atmosphere . Staff was great quick with drinks. Music was excellent. We will be back for sure.

I had a great time at this place! The people there were super nice. Was in town flying solo and popped in a Sunday Eve to find the best group of guys playing.Something? Avenue Shakedown ..Lots of fun to watch, nice to chat with.Came back the next day but they were closed even though the hours said they'd be open.Went back a couple days later and the cool bartender actually remembered me (must of been chatty lol) Definitely a great place to hang out at and listen to some tunes
