The Magnolia

My best friend and I visited The Magnolia for his theater board's 75th Anniversary. It had its own parking lot and patio. Stepping inside there is a small staircase to the main floor. We had fun exploring the various rooms: red carpet for the step & repeat, cash bar, main room with round tables, bathroom, private spaces with long tables or rounds, the space for a buffet of heavy starters and desserts and lastly, a gorgeous space designed by Maker's Mark. We walked upstairs to check out their private suite area, made perfect for bridal parties. A large mirror for getting ready plus styling tables to do hair and make up. Per the owner, this may turn into an AirBNB option. The faculty is perfect for events or large party gatherings. They have TVs throughout the building and I loved watching the photo loop of the theater's pictures. We enjoyed the food on the menu, especially the meatballs and roast beef sandwiches. Add this space to your list for event rentals! They have made partnerships with nearby hotels.

One of my most favorite places to go out in Louisville. Food is unique and incredible, consistently! The Golden Girls themed drinks are fun and (again) consistently made. My husband was hesitant to go the first time because the decor is more feminine, but it became a favorite for him after our first visit! We've now gone to dinner there together twice, and shared brunch there with friends and family three times. Make a reservation! This place is getting very popular for good reason!
