Awesome brewery made by a local couple who was featured on an HGTV episode of House Hunters!! :P The beer is incredible, awesome atmosphere, board games/ping-pong tables, and a food truck is on scene serving INCREDIBLE food from Mayan Cafe. They also have a patio outback with a view of the skyline. Great spot for a nice day but plenty of room inside for a rainy one.

Delicious coffee company with vegan treats available, too. It's a little hidden behind Urban Outfitters but worth the search and very walkable.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT. Great food but definitely a pretty penny. My boyfriend and I love coming here for special occasions. If you're celebrating something, come here. It's definitely a place you'll want to dress nice for but I love it for date nights! Get the avocado ice cream for dessert! Ask for a seat by the glass and you'll have a nice view of Bardstown Road.

Another great spot if you're celebrating something! It is a little upscale but it makes for a great date night spot. It's attached to an art museum that you can check out for free after you eat!

Lots of different restaurants (Hard Rock Cafe, TGIFriday's, The Fudgery) but they also have a Howl at the Moon, a PBR Bar, and more. I'd recommend coming here for dinner and then staying into the night for drinks. This is known as a touristy spot but it is definitely something you should do if you're visiting as a tourist. They also often have good performers for cheap. I've seen some decent country singers for $10. It has a strip of bars covered by a glass ceiling so it makes for a good spot on a rainy day.

This was the original mall but the city of Louisville decided it wasn't big enough and built another mall right next to it (Oxford Center). This mall is a little more teacher-budget-friendly than Oxford but I do go to both depending on what I need.
