I just went to my second WhoDunnit show at the Bristol on Main downtown. Both were fantastic and…read moreso well done. The meal service includes salad, bread, main dish and dessert (Chocolate cheesecake for me mmmmm). The ony thing I paid for was alcohol and they validate parking if you park right next door! The performance was entertaining, character engagement was so much fun and they stumped me on who did it. This is a great family, date, or just friends night out! We bought tickets for others as Christmas presents!

We were looking for something different to do in the Louisville area, and we came upon Magic,…read moreDinner, & Bourbon. We like all three of these things, so we gave it a try, and we were hooked. Richard Darshwood, Darsh to his friends, is great at close up magic and uses venues that are relatively small (20-40 people) to keep with the "intimate" theme. He works with several bourbon distillers as sponsors, so included with the show are specialty cocktails and bourbon tastings. Food and service has been outstanding at the Bristol Bar & Grille downtown. During dinner, Darsh will roam throughout the room, doing some amazing close up magic at the tables. I've even had the opportunity to inspect some of the equipment he's used in a few of his tricks and cannot fathom how he managed his feats. You will be treated to a terrific evening of entertainment, food, and libations when you attend one of these shows.

Each dinner includes history of the featured bourbon of the night. UPDATE 2026: No Public shows scheduled. Please Inquire about our private shows for groups of 20 or more. How many people can actually claim to have had an up close experience with sophisticated magic performed by a true master of illusion? It's a sensational rarity! From Asia to Las Vegas and back, Richard E. Darshwood provides many treats to charm our guests throughout the evening. One of Kentucky's greatest prides lies in its production of whiskey and an evening like this is only complete with the addition of hand-crafted cocktails and straight Kentucky whiskey from one of Kentucky's distilleries. Each drink is a magical pairing for each food course and it's accompanying entertainment for an exciting and tantalizing experience. Everyone receives an introduction to the heritage of Kentucky bourbon and bourbon history, and goes home with a gift from the featured distillery.

We utilized the recently advertised BOGO promotion for the "25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee"…read moreproduction. Several of our friends coordinated the purchase of 3 sets of 2-ticket pairs to fill a table of 6 for a Sunday evening performance. The pre-show buffet is fantastic with a well stocked selection on the fresh salad bar (typical options as well as broccoli salad) and then a delicious hot dish buffet. We had green beans, corn, quinoa, Mac 'n cheese, baked potato, pulled pork (very, very good!), baked fish, fried fish, fried chicken (also very good!), and rolls. Our server, Eliza, is also one of the Footnotes (formerly AKA as Barnstormers) and was so fabulous with taking care of us and prompt. We ordered various desserts (selections include bread pudding, flourless chocolate torte, strawberry shortcake, rocky road chocolate brownie, hummingbird cake, peanut butter pie, ice cream) to enjoy during intermission and they were all so rich that my advice would be to share if at all possible. Gift shop at entrance had so many cute items. Lobby and restrooms were all well maintained. Support staff were welcoming and all seemed to operate as a team and like a well oiled machine. Parking lot is large, well lit, and very easily accessible for anyone with mobility concerns. Looking forward to the 2026-2027 season!

This was our first time seeing a play at Derby Dinner Playhouse after a friend gifted us a pair of…read moretickets, and we had a great time! The meal is served buffet style before the play begins, and there are plenty of options available on the salad and hot food bars. Everything was the correct temperature and safety gloves are provided to prevent the spread of germs when touching the serving spoons. We were conveniently seated close to the buffet tables which meant there was a bit of traffic going past us, but we were able to get our food early in the process. Servers bring your preferred drink to the table, including alcoholic drinks from the bar, and they also serve dessert and drinks (an extra cost) during one of the play intermissions. The play, The Bunco Squad Rolls Again, was a funny, locally-written play with a twist at the end. Some friends from college used to perform at the theater and now the daughter of a former classmate is performing there. I think we will definitely return to see other plays.

Although it is listed as being on Fourth Street the actual location is now at the Tempo Hotel by…read moreHilton on East Jefferson Street in NuLu. We actually received this as a gift from friends. It's a bit over the top and corny but some parts of it are humorous. It is interactive and you are taxed with solving the murder. There are actors among us who may be the culprit. In fact the murderer was eventually discovered at our table along with the clever young lady who solved the mystery and won the prize. The food was just OK and the dessert was meh. Service was very good and please tip the staff/actors accordingly. Unfortunately we were unaware that the NuLu Bock Fest was going on this weekend so parking at the hotel was a hefty $42(event parking). Ouch. Street parking was nonexistent and other pay lots were just as expensive as the hotel. On the bright side the Tempo Hotel is quite nice, staff friendly, the dinner is on the 6th floor with a view of the NuLu district.
