Bearno's is on regular rotation for pizza night and I'm happy to have this location so close. My husband loves the Mama's Bearno's. The toppings are plentiful so one piece is nearly a meal. Traditionally I request a simple pepperoni. Most recently I met a friend for lunch. They have several personal pizzas on special as well as spaghetti. I chose the deluxe salad. For only $1 more than a house salad, it comes with cheese and bacon. Service during lunch was much better than what I've experienced at dinner - plus it was quieter and more relaxed for meeting people. Night time is busy and loud. I often avoid the restaurant and take out because of the environment. Shared lot with other businesses. Plenty of parking. Some patio seating. read more

Pizza is fantastic. We usually get the mama light pizza but also super impressed with the cauliflower crust and any pizza with their chicken on it. My husband likes the house salad and my kids request the cheese sticks always. Good draft beer selection. This location is more of a sports bar vibe than the other Bearno's. We've always had attentive and fast service. They've updated the interior recently and everything always seems very clean. read more

Surprised not a higher rating for this great local spot! Great sports bar, has its band of regulars. Mama Bearno is an excellent pizza, but my fav lately is sriracha dry rub wings. This is our go-to place for pizza, or casual night or to watch a game with a group. read more

Very sports bar vibe. Everything you look for in a pizza place. Staff was very nice and polite. Food was prepared within estimated time. Full bar. I carried out. Pizza was excellent. Well within pizza standards. It was a little pricey but basically the high side of normal... nothing I was going to open a vein over. It was a little loud but again sports bar vibe. Not my personal thing but it looked like it would be a good place to hang out. read more

Bearno's 502 - All Meat Special Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Service was okay... but we ordered wings and the waitress saw a bug fly onto our wings and still laid the plate down on the table. We told her immediately that we had a dead bug on our wings she replied with "the bug flew onto your wings as i was carrying it to the table" and then walked away from us. She was visibly irritated that we didn't want a dead bug on our wings. She didn't offer to replace them she basically told us it was our problem. When we mentioned it again she offered to replace the one (1) wing but said it would take 35 minutes. Took quite a while to get food but the food without bugs on it tasted great! Usually don't have this problem here. read more

Bearno's 502 - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Place was crowded good for them. The front door kid was without a clue. Had no idea how to handle 8 person party was not in his scope. No reservations or call ahead seating. As for a manager. She was completely overwhelmed and had little to no customer service skills. Very disappointed in this location of a company that has had a good name in pizza. Never got to try the pizza, but the customer service and hospitality were awful. Try somewhere else. read more

Not a bad pub. Gets a little crowded but it's alright. Walking distance from hyatt place. The yeungling is smaller pints but great price. Haven't gotten food here but I will be back to try the pizza and nachos. Seems a lot of locals go here. Good place to play keno. Not a bad spot for local bar. read more

Bearno's 502 - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I heard about this new sport bar opening up and I really admire the owner, Mark Lamkin. I went in with a group of 4 opening weekend of March Madness, and the establishment had only been open for a week I believe. I really want this place to succeed, and I would give them a few months to get some things ironed out, but sadly, most of the issues would require capital investments (not simple staff fixes). PROs: great Pizza (if you like the regular Bearno's locations you will like this pizza). Lots of TVs (caveat -see CONS below), great staff and friendly service, cheap Yuengling beer. Good prices on food. CONS: any non-pizza food items (no deep fryer for wings or fries, sad salads), loudness, no variety of beer selections, small bathrooms, awkward TV positioning. Server doubled the tip (not sure if honest mistake misreading handwriting but I doubt it) Upon walking in we were greeted right away and there were no issues with adding members to my party during the evening (we had a booth). I mainly chose this place for the TVs for March Madness, and we were able to watch all four games at once as they have 2 rows of about 6-8 TVs each in the main dining room (and more in the smaller bar area). The space consists of entirely hard surfaces so it was extremely loud and difficult to hear the person across from me. In addition, because the main room is long and narrow and the TVs are placed near the ceiling, after an hour or so you will get neck strain. I believe the TVS could be lowered. Service was attentive and they made good recommendations about what they thought was good and not so-good, I appreciate when the staff is honest. I was disappointed with the beer selection, especially for this area and when you have Brick House right next door with many more taps. Bearno's 502 simply does not have enough taps, I posted a pic of the beer menu and as you can see they have the usual domestics, Yuengling, Blue Moon, Fat Tire, Falls city and Sam Adams. Hardly a craft beer lovers list. My first server did get my beer order incorrect and was ill-informed on the pricing. We got the buffalo chicken dip and it was quite tasty, but as another Yelper noted it came with some sad tortilla chips vs garlic toast as indicated on the menu (I didn't notice until I read the review). After the appetizer, my grilled chicken salad arrived. The chicken frankly looked like it was from a bag, there were two small, thin tomato slices, several large lettuce hearts which needed to be discarded, tons of croutons, and that was it - but for $8.99 it was OK. My friend ordered a sandwich with fries, which she was warned were baked because of no fryer. She thought they would be OK but they were not. I know it's healthier, but if you are going to be a sports bar with wings and fries you better invest in a deep fryer. One of my guests ordered coffee, but the place did not have any cream on site, and we were told the coffee was from a Keurig because otherwise they would "waste it". Uhh what? They had a brewing station for tea but couldn't afford one for coffee? Additionally, the bathroom for the mens' is a single room with a toilet and a urinal, but no walls/dividers, so although if this were a frat house or college bar I could see two people using it, effectively this is a one-in/one-out setup. Again not good for a sports bar. Finally, I just discovered that my card was charged double the tip amount I wrote down. We were there for quite a while and I tipped 20% on the before tax amount, I usually would tip more but instead of giving me a $2.25 Yuengling as requested, I got a $4.99 bottle. Regardless, I was shocked to see the amount charged and entered a dispute with my CC company. I hope it was simply an honest mistake. I hope mgmt. can make improvements to at least the food and beverage selections, the setup may be something they just have to live with. I hope they make it but I'm not sure they will. If you stick to pizza and like domestics this place is a decent choice to watch sports. read more

I've had Bearno's many times throughout the years but never been to this location. We decided to stop in after a quick trip to the grocery (Aldi) right down the strip from Bearno's 502. We were hungry and it was getting late. They were friendly, efficient, and the food was tasty! They had a pretty good beer menu, which I did not expect. There was even a beer special that night...extra win for me! I would visit this location again if I found myself all the way out in the east end and was craving pizza! read more

Service was friendly and prompt. Food came out quickly and was delicious! The wings were large and they were tender and flavorful. I love Bearno's pizza! The pizza is phenomenal, and I love the create your own option. There's so many choices. If you want a specialty pizza, definitely order the Mama's Bearno's! It's excellent. Anyway, this location just opened up two weeks ago, and they did phenomenal which says a lot considering they were a bit busy with March Madness! read more

Bearno's 502 - Create your own with onions, peppers, and jalepenos! - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Legendary Louisville pizza. Not the best you'll ever eat, but still really good and it's a Louisville must.

Excellent pizza! Spaghetti and meatballs was delicious and the beer cheese dip for the pretzels was worthy of bathing in! Great service, efficient, sports everywhere. Highly recommend! read more

This place was right next to our hotel so we gave it a shot. Great place to catch a football game. Wide variety of usual bar food and good beer selection. Staff was very friendly and fast. Actually went back the next night as well with a larger group. The meatball appetizer was unique and very good. read more

Two stars are for the pizzas. If you want to spend over an hour waiting for okay pizza, you've chosen the right place. Arrived at Bearnos and waited about 10 mins until a worker greeted us. We then proceeded to wait another 30 mins because they were full. Which is fine, we decided to stay. As soon as we sat down, the waitress/ bartender came and took our drink order. We thought "wow quick service" we were so wrong. We ordered and appetizer and it took them 24 mins to bring to the table. The bartender/ waitress was too busy flirting with some guy playing slots and didn't take our order until our appetizer arrived. We finally ordered and waited another 25 mins for our pizzas. She only refilled our drinks once. We had to go ask her for our bill and a To go box. The final bill comes and I'm in shock. We ordered two make your own pizzas and the total was $51. Our small three topping pizzas were $17!!! Do not recommend this location, take your business elsewhere. read more

Some of the best pizza in the states! Get the mama bearnos! The toppings are so fresh, love the thin crust and the cheese is special.

Pizza is the best! I was a little skeptical however they won me over with just pepperoni and sausage 2 days in a row it was so good!!!

Came in to this restaurant looking for pizza, they did not sell it by the slice. Since I was by myself, I did not feel like having an entire pizza. I ordered a Stromboli steak sandwich, and I can say without doubt it was the worst I've ever had. All I had on it was cheese marinara sauce and a piece of meat. No mushrooms, no pickles no nothing. I've eaten Stromboli steak sandwiches all over the United States and this was the worst. In addition, there were lots of locals with three and four-year-old children running behind the bar. Service was inattentive. Not something I would do again read more

This business is a restaurant- but I have trouble thinking of it as one. What it is, is a great bar that also serves great food. When our favorite bar moved to a new location, it lost the charm that many of the regulars loved. Thanks to this Bearno's, we have a special place to meet with friends, make new friends, cheer on our favorite teams on their many big screen tvs', enjoy either good bar food, pizza or entrees and have friendly servers who care. read more

The host on Thursday nights is kinda fine, he is so fine that I made a yelp account dedicated to him. He has these spiffy new blazers on.

Amanda, Ang & Molly are AMAZING! Go see them their service is awesome and the food is fantastic! Definitely 10/10 recommend you WONT be disappointed read more

Food was really good. Delivery took longer than they said- we were told an hour and it was an hour and a half. We ordered a salad but there were no forks and we were staying at a hotel. That was a fail but the pizza had a great taste and the salad was tasty after we figured out how to eat it. read more

My first time here (7/14/19)... I enjoyed it... Liked the amount of tv's... Service was fine... I got the stuffed jalapenos, which I found very good.. I then ordered moma's pizza original, think that is name.. It was very good.. Little too many green peppers ratio to other items, but very good overall. I got to try the garlic bread sticks and they were fantastic.. My friends ordered pepp. pizza and it looked awesome.. Drinks are drinks, so no complaints there... I will be back... read more

Great service! Fun place to watch a game. Bearno's pizza is reliably delicious, but the atmosphere is what sets this place apart! Could use a more varied beer list though. read more

Bearno's 502 - Mama Bearno's - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Went tonight for a late dinner. We were expecting places to be packed but they sat us right down. Then we were ignored and ignored. No one offered us drinks or a "be right with you" nada. Yet they asked the people behind us twice if they were ready to order. And the large table ordering shots was given great service. They walked past our table about 7 times without a look or a word. Perhaps I forgot we'd put our invisibility cloaks on prior to walking in? Or I guess maybe we didn't look like we were going to spend much so we weren't worth their time? After 20 minutes of this, we finally left. To add insult to injury the girl working the front stated "have a nice evening" as we were walking out. We won't be back. read more

The remote office. Great pizza, beer, full bar and lots of tv's. Love this place. Hyper local, it's the perfect Louisville hangout. Tasty cheese sticks $7.99. All meats special$22.99 is gooey and cheesy goodness. Not an upscale night but perfect low key spot for me and my two boys! read more

We ordered a Mamas all meat special and breadstick. I will start out by saying the delivery person was very fast and personable. I wish I could say the pizza was awesome. The bread stick were nothing more than a pizza crust with butter and garlic. The pizza even though it was a medium was so packed with meat it must have been a inch high. So much so I couldn't find the sauce or the crust. It was more like a meat pie without the crust. This place was recommended by the hotel staff. It just did not impress. read more

I checked this well known local pizza pub establishment and wasn't disappointed but not overly impressed. The pizza is pretty good but really not my style. Some might appreciate it more than myself, i need more sauce! I also don't like sloppy pizza where you can barely eat it cause the toppings all slide off. On a more positive note their beer specials are legit! I went in on a Thursday night and was impressed that my beer tab was around $13 for 3-4 pints (and yes I took an taxi-uber-lift,etc) Overall a positive experience with the service and I enjoyed the live band that played until almost 11:30pm! read more

Bearno's 502 - the front of the restaurant - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

Great food, service, and a layout of TVs to watch a game on with TV audio instead of hearing music played through their speakers.

On Saturday, October 8th , my husband, my son, my brother, his girlfriend, my brother in law and I entered Bearno's approximately 7:15pm. I let the young man who was at the counter know that we had 6 people. He said just a minute, let me check. In the meantime, I turned around and saw a couple people walk in behind us. The young man took us straight and we turned right to a back corner table. While he was taking us to our seats, the people who had come in behind us had turn immediate right and walked around the bar to the same table. The waitress that was waiting on the table next to this table (the table had maybe 8 people already seated and eating) looked at the young man and said oh, they have this table. The waitress (thin, dark hair and a KY shirt on) was whispering to the young man and then suddenly came over to me and stated, I am sorry, this group has grown and this table is needed. She then stated, there will be quite a wait for another table. That waitress was so rude. It showed that she took power over the young man and he was just left standing there. There was no one sitting at the table we were getting ready to sit at. Those other people came around and took over the table as we were being seated. If the large group wanted to have more room they should have had someone sitting there prior to us walking in since they had obviously called more people to join them. I have never been treated so rudely before. We stepped out and called the Bearno's down the street. They were able to accommodate us perfectly. We will continue to use that one as their staff were amazing. read more

First let me say we love the Bearno's by our house. However, this new concept is a little lacking for families. We asked for a high chair and was told they did not have any. The booths weren't large enough to accommodate a baby carrier so the kiddo ended up being on the table. Halfway through our meal he needed a change so went to the women's room and found no changing table or even a trash can for dirty diapers. My husband checked the men's room and nothing in there either. So he ended up getting changed on the table while we got dirty looks from folks eating nearby. If there was a changing station that could have been avoided and everyone could have enjoyed their meals. Once again, we love Bearno's and eat there every month, but until this location has a few more family friendly amenities, we will not be returning. read more

We eat here once a week or rather we used to after tonight we will not be going back to this location. Staff is rude they got our order wrong and lied to us over the phone when we brought it home to find they gave us the wrong wing sauce. Lady on the phone swears she checked it before our order before it went out but I guess her eyes weren't able to tell what it tastes like because it's wrong also they don't fill the ranch or blu cheese up all the way so get more than one pretty sure they are free. Sad to see how far downhill this business has gone since it opened we used to love it here key phrase "used to"! The pizza which they got correct was good but their customer service is equivalent to dumpster trash (except dumpster trash won't lie to you!) read more

Great start with a new sports bar style Bearno's Pizza location. Next to Arctic Zone on Hurstbourne Parkway near I -64. First week for Yeungling beer in Louisville and first week for this new Bearno's concept. Pizza is classic Bearno's style delicious. But the TVS!!! At least 16 - 65" flat screens in the Dining Room and more in the bar. You're game is on here for sure. read more

Bearno's 502 - Mama Bearno's Special Small! Lots of pizza there. And Yeungling! First week in Louisville - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I've only had drinks here so unfortunately at this time I can't speak as to how the food is. What I have seen of it though, it looks good and hearty portions. I only had a few Yuenglings so I don't know the mixed drinks game here, but the mixed drinks I saw looked well mixed and heavy pours. For example, the classic Irish Car Bomb had a full shot of Jameson and almost another full shot of Baileys and an almost full pint of Guinness. From what I've had poured, that is a generous pour on all three counts. From what I've had, half a shot of baileys and Jameson is customary. Lots of people don't know, but Yuenglings are $2.25 a pint everyday all day long!! It's a great deal if you're drinking out on a budget. read more

The two stars are for the pizza. The service... we walked in and no one was at hostess stand (no one waiting and I one seating). Pretty quiet night only 2 or 3 tables. First waiter walks by us makes eye contact and keeps moving. Second waiter sees us makes eye contact turns around and goes in kitchen. Third staff member leaning on a table. Looks over turns around and goes in kitchen. This round of three definitely seeing us at host stand and definitely ignoring us is repeated twice more. We are looking at each other in shear wonderment at this point. So I go to bar and ask if someone can seat us (1 person, bartender, I hadn't seen prior the other is one of the "I don't see you" wait staff). Bartender says sure and then....no one shows up to seat us. I go BACK to the bar and ask if I should just go somewhere else to eat? She apologizes and obviously can't believe the other guy didn't come seat us. Finally get seated and one of the "I can't see you" is our waiter, but he is pretty good once we are seated Pizza was hot and good but wont go back unless it is last resort read more

Pizza great, service awesome. Need to start enforcing the no smoking policy on the patio please. read more

Bearno's 502 - Mama Bearno's - lunch for tomorrow! - Pizza Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

This is one of the Best Bearno's 502 in town, the service is great, the bartenders are amazing, and the manager is way cool. Yuengling is always cold and priced right. This is the one I like to go to , to hang out with friends and have a cold one. Check it out! read more

I'll just preface with the disclaimer that I don't normally write negative reviews. I have put up with a lot and just let it go because I don't want to be "that guy" that costs them business. I would also like to disclaim that this is a new establishment that might not quite be the well-oiled machine it can potentially become, and that for the most part, everyone was polite and at least somewhat attentive. All said, I was unimpressed with this location. I've been to other Bearno's locations and have never felt such an atmosphere of disarray/disorganization. I walked in and was not greeted, even though there was an empty hosting station staring me down. I got asked by someone at the bar if I needed help, to which I just said "can I sit at the bar?" and they implied that it was fine. I sat, and ordered a beer. When it came to food, even though I was looking over the menu, I was told that I could just do the lunch buffet... which honestly looked pretty sad. There was one piece left out of an entire restaurant of obviously hungry people. I should have went with something on the menu, but was talked into it by the bartender who assured and reassured me that "they're bringing more out soon." I said "okay that's fine" as I was in a hurry to get fed and get on with my day. I sat and watched ESPN on one of the dozens of televisions they have stationed around the restaurant, and noticed out of the corner of my eye that a pizza had come out. The pizza was far less noticeable than people literally doing a fast-walk up to the buffet to get their share. The fast feasters took every slice. I would have to wait for the next offering. When it did arrive, I was much more on-the-ball and actually got a couple of slices, but had to do a similar fast-walk to get them. This is nearly 15-20 minutes after I'd arrived. It took *that long* for me to get one trip to the buffet for pizza I had to literally beat out the competition for. Okay fine. Maybe it's just some miscommunication between the front staff and the back. Then, as I'm savoring the little bit of pizza I got, a lady came up next to me asking for her carry-out order. The bartender (who apparently took the order) read off the ticket, and the customer said that wasn't what she ordered, and said there are two items on the menu that sound similar. The bartender assured her that the order they had put in was correct, and when the customer checked the pizza that came out, sure enough, it wasn't. The bartender then asked if the wrong order was okay or should they make another... they actually asked! So because it "wasn't okay," a manager comped the customer half off of her order. By this time, I'm getting the idea that perhaps I shouldn't come back. I look over at the buffet for one last trip, and it was, of course, empty. I sighed, paid my bill, and left. I probably won't be back anytime soon. read more

I'm a big fan of Bearno's so I was excited to try the new location by our house. I was torn about what rating to give the place because my service was so good and the atmosphere of the new place is pretty nice. However,I really dislike ordering food and receiving something very different then the description. The server recommended the Buffalo chicken dip which the menu stated came with garlic toast for dipping. It sounded great but when it arrived it was served with what looked like the last of a bag of Tostitos scoops. While the dip itself was great there's no way I should pay seven dollars for Tostitos scoops. When I asked my server he said that the garlic toast is only upon request and didn't elaborate if it was an up charge. However the Menu stated otherwise. Having only been open a week do you think the menu would match the food actually served. However, it is the same great Bearno's pizza it has always been. read more

The food and service were standard for Bearnos, but the restaurant was unbearably loud. No one at my table could hear each other. It had nothing to do with the TVs, the space is not designed well and the acoustics are crazy. They really need to look at buffers or spray foam. read more

Great location and a nice decorative interior. Would probably be good for watching a game. Came here for the lunch buffet and you would think they've never done a buffet before. There are 17 people in the restaurant and they constantly have about three separate pizzas on the buffet. The end of the line walks you right into a wall. It is a bottleneck that could be easily solved. Not a good first impression for the Hurstbourne Pizzeria. This is the first time I've been to a pizza buffet and had to wait for pizza. Not the pizza I want, pizza in general. read more
