This was my friend group's first time checking out this place, and it will definitely be our last…read more Immediately after entering the bar, we were stared at by the staff and people coming in. The female manager, with the sides of her head shaved, was hugging, kissing, and being overly familiar with every customer who walked in. It was extremely uncomfortable. We decided to play a game of pool and noticed a pool stick already on the table, along with others. A customer, who the manager had been hugging and kissing, came over to my friend, aggressively grabbed the stick, and made a scene, telling my friend that it was his stick and that there would be a problem if he used it again. Later, my friend accidentally left a beer on the pool table (we know it's not allowed, it was an honest mistake). Without warning, the manager--who appeared to be on something--came over, reached around my friend, grabbed the beer, and shouted, "Is this your beer? Get it off my fucking table!" Then, she returned to the group of people by the bar. We all noticed they were talking about us and pointing in our direction. To top it off, there was a "singer" at the bar who was singing over the original Spotify track, which was honestly more comical than anything else. The entire atmosphere was unprofessional and uncomfortable. When we left, the same manager was staring us down in the parking lot. This place felt very run-down and appeared to be run by a group of friends and regulars. Any newcomers should beware--these people are not friendly at all. Worst bar I've ever been to, hands down.

Pretty cool place, with a good atmosphere. We went on a Saturday and they had good cheap drinks and…read morea performance by a guy covering some songs. The bartender on staff was cool!

The beer selection is a little on the heavier side, with quite a few high ABV draft options. What's nice is that you can travel between this location and the original 3rd Turn location, so if someone in your group is looking for a lighter beer they can walk next door where they have 20 different beers are on-tap as well as bourbon slushies. The workers always go above and beyond to make sure their customers are taken care of and are very knowledgeable about the beers and bourbons they serve. They have ample seating inside and out and usually have a food option available on Friday and Saturdays. Check them out on Facebook for more info.

Guys, this place is MY JAM!!!…read more 3rd Turn continues to rock out handcrafted venues (built by the owners). They upcycle as many materials as possible and do their best to maintain the unique venues natural magic. And now we are onto the beer. By far, my favorite brewery in Louisville. The tap changes almost daily and there is always something funky about even the most basic beers. I have difficulty drinking more than one beer total a day because of how heavy they can be. However, when consuming high abv beer that is clean and brewed the right way, I am able to drink multiple beers in one sitting. Which, makes it great for the beer lover that I am! what is on tap is always barrel aged and different from their full brewery next door. The bourbon selection is fantastic and we have enjoyed Edward Lee so often that we finished the bottle last night! I guess it is time to start something new!!! Bring your friends or kids. There are games and it is quite literally for all beings. Enjoy! You'll thank me!!!

We've been to 3rd Turn a few times recently - one for a private event and another for music bingo…read more This is a converted church so sitting in its main indoor space is a nice setting - high ceilings, high top tables and the bar. I also love the corners with comfy couches and chairs. Plenty of beer to enjoy plus a few slushies - although those are so sweet that I'm not a fan. You can bring in your own food or order delivery from a few spots in the Gaslight District. I especially appreciate it's a family friendly space because my sons are teens. It was so much fun to enjoy music bingo with them while eating pizza from Parlour. Outdoor seating as well - lots of it. Easy street parking. Quick service. Follow them on social to keep up with their events. I'm going to start suggesting this space for more meet ups with friends.

They had a ton of beers, but we opted for the slushies -- the Pineapple one was hot weather perfection, and the other was so incredibly strong i couldn't finish it. I also ordered an Old fashioned, and it was an ultimate concoction with a giant rock of ice. You know an Old fashioned will be good when they don't serve it with chipped ice. We hung out for a few hours and played cards, and the bartenders were friendly and accommodating. I wish this place was closer to us cause we would be regulars! At the very least, we will return in cooler weather to enjoy the outside patio.

It has the dive bar feel where there are dim lights and dartboards but they still have it modernized so it does not look run down. They have a full bar but they do not have any specialty drinks. I ordered a beer on draft and my husband ordered an LIT (gross) and we both enjoyed our drinks. They do serve the drinks in red solo cups which I honestly didn't mind. I love that they share the patio area with 3rd turn so you can enjoy the nice weather. I will be making my way to JTD again soon

Never been? Think of Recbar as a Dave & Busters, with a limited menu. And certainly less…read moreexpensive. But, sometimes "less is more". Particularly when chefs prefer fancy twists on familiar bar food. Our group of 6 adults and two grandkids had a hit & miss experience. My wife's fish tacos were a disaster. We requested blackened fish instead of fried on corn tortillas. Her dinner was a disappointment. Cold flimsy tortillas and cold fish with an overpowering aioli. No sides were included in this order. Another diner ordered the BLT. Again, they had to dress up the sandwich rather than stick to the classic. The pimento cheese did not enhance the sandwich. Another at the table went with one of Recbars "egg rolls". It was lead. Heavy, with an overpowering greasy, flavor. The "wrap" was so heavy, we couldn't tell what was inside. On the plus side, my chicken parmigiana sandwich was very good. Lightly breaded and fried, moist and covered with a solid marinara sauce and melted cheese. Served on a bun with tater tots. The cornflake chicken fingers were impressive. Large pieces, again. lightly fried. Service was friendly, patient & prompt. They only serve Pepsi products and if you're looking for a diet drink you've got one choice-diet Pepsi. Thankfully, they do offer unsweetened ice tea. Of course, there's a full service bar for "grown up" drinks. The desert, "oh cinnappy" ordered for our 9 yr old grandson was a hit with the adults. He preferred to hit the games. The rest rooms were smelly and messy. And one had no paper towels to dry your hands. But here is why we'll never go back. As we were ready to leave, the sky opened up. A drenching storm. My wife asked the hostess for a plastic bag to cover her hair. The response? Not my job, you'll have to ask your server. We were dumbstruck by that response. She's the greeter. And clearly has no concept of customer service. The servers were busy (the place was hopping on a Sunday night) and she was just standing at the front desk. No one waiting for a table. No one at the door. She just couldn't be bothered. So, we won't bother to come back.

They were one of the best food items I ever had from a low key kinda place. We arrived later in the evening and it was not busy. We walked up to the bar and were greeted quickly. We were guided to sit at a table and gave our drink order. While we were waiting for our drinks. we browsed the menu. We were not hungry enough for meals so decided on some appetizers to munch on. We decided on the pretzel nuggets and boneless wings. While we were waiting for our food, we used the restrooms and people watched, even though there were not many other patrons. There were several tvs on playing sports. Our food arrived in a timely manner. We both agreed the pretzel nuggets were surprisingly delicious! The boneless wings were decent as well. We finished everything and were full. The prices were moderate and the restaurant appeared clean. It gives a dive bar kind of feel but there are so many tables and booths to dine at. The staff were friendly enough and efficient.
