At Mary's is a massive downtown historical bardstown shop on the popular strip that offers a wide…read morevariety of goods from home decor, to furniture to art. Me and my second oldest daughter stopped in here the other day to browse for possible Christmas presents. While we didn't purchase anything it was a fun place to browse. Slightly cluttered but that's ok as it means they just have a large inventory of options. Pricing wise I'd say they are on the high end a tad for our liking. I'm able to find likewise items in louisville or online a tad bit cheaper. However they are located in an extremely popular small town/touristy shopping area so I understand the slight increases. The workers here were extremely nice and helpful and give you the small country town welcome you would expect. Overall a very cool store. Just because we didn't find anything on this trip does not mean we will not come back and purchase in the future.

Stopped in here on an afternoon visit to Bardstown. They have limited hours right now. We did wear…read moreour masks and the employees were wearing masks too. Lots of fun things to buy here. Everyone can find an idea. They also have cocktail slushy drinks...yummy! With samples. My mom and I both bought two packs. I also splurged a little, and bought a piece that just spoke to me. She kept calling me to buy her, that my home needed to be her new home. :) Whatever I needed to say to make it ok to buy. Large painting in a beautiful frame. Love it! Can't wait to go back and find my next treasures!

4.5 What a pleasant and enjoyable stay! We were completely…read moresurprised by the comfort and conveniences provided at the Talbott Inn. We had looked at the historic rooms at the nearby Tavern (our reason for visiting), but decided not to take our chance on stairs we'd have to negotiate to get to a room. However, the Inn has a very large and convenient elevator, so that's the place we chose. (Note: the elevator is very slow...but what's the rush?) The reception desk and area is small but adequate with odds and ends of tchotchkes for sale. Receptionist was very polite. Our room was spacious! And...I mean bigger than the photos represent and much larger than we imagined. Large comfy bed, plenty of soft and medium pillows, fridge, microwave, chairs to lounge, relax, or read. Complementary bottles of water, coffee and coffee maker. All nice touches. And thermostat was easy to adjust. Bathroom was fine, clean, well-stocked with one notable exception, which we find in nearly every hotel we stay in these days: No towel rods to hang wet towels or wash cloths. That is, except one hook high up on the back of the bathroom door. (Virtually out of reach for my wife. We find this an unreasonable inconvenience in all our travels....(so only a half point deduction here.) Windows provided beautiful views of the square and were seemingly well-insulated....so no terrible traffic noises to keep us awake during the night. (OK...A few trucks in the morning, but not too early.) All-in-all we give this lodging very high marks and our solid recommendation. Oh, and very reasonably priced to boot!

With parking plentiful and short walking distance from all points downtown -- bars, restaurants, and all, you can come to Artists Barrel for various odds and ends-type of purchases.

Overall, Artists Barrel had everything for what I was seeking during my trip to Bardstown.
