    Very Slow Service, food mediocre at best, quesadilla was hot and my "fresh" made queso had boiled over the sides from the microwave.

    This fine establishment in the heart of Fern Creek is a hidden gem. Great place to gather with friends & enjoy ice cold adult beverages.

We had a couple cocktails in here and the service was excellent even though it appeared they were filled to capacity. There were 4 of us in our party and we were seated at a table in the corner near the bar. Was definitely a cozy spot with so many people being in there and the bar being full. I had The Holy Ghost cocktail and it was a pomegranate hibiscus sour, it had just the right amount of sour! I do not like bitter drinks and this one was good and easy to drink. My husband had a couple of dark beers, I do not remember which ones but he liked them. They had a nice outdoor area but it was a bit too cool for that but it may be worth a return in the Spring to check it out. Bathroom was also really cool as the decor and theme spilled over into it. We will be back.

It's creative with a sense of joy, irreverent, one of a kind. And I'm happy to see it last in its spot next to Slugger Field. I got to visit recently when a bunch of friends were in town. We ended up visiting during trivia night, which added a fun twist to the experience. Our team, The Electric Sheep, got second place! And along with the fun vibes, we had great food and beer. I got The Smokehouse OG, which is its pulled pork sandwich served on a Cuban roll. If you like pulled pork, you'll like this sandwich, though typical to their fashion, AtG puts a twist on it with its Brown Note BBQ Sauce. We had to get the pork belly on a stick -- a menu fave. And for my beer, I tried the El Nopal Mexican lager (cracked up at the name) and Cold Ass Beer red ale. AtG is a Louisville original that's not to be overlooked.

I got the burger in special, the Dirty Burger. Pretty standard burger dressed with their "not so secret" sauce and fancy pickle. Super solid, very well executed. In the words of Samuel L. Jackson, this is a tasty burger! The location is pretty tough to beat with how convenient it is, and how close it is to all downtown has to offer. The atmosphere is industrial but relaxed. The staff was so wonderful and personable. Will definitely be back!

There are also picnic tables out front. You get a faint whiff of the grill/smoker upon entering. Kylie was our bartender and she was fabulous - knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of our questions with patience. Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting. Look forward to going back and trying one of the burgers at some point.

I was going to a UofL women's basketball game and I FINALLY was able to make it here. I went a little overboard on the food, but everything sounded so good! I really loved the pork belly slider and the duck tacos. Mac and cheese balls always slap. Then there are the famous duck fat fries. The portion is substantial, I was thrilled with that. Flavor wise they did not change my life like I was hoping they would. Still ate them all. The locale is super unassuming from the street, but inside it is really cool, divey, and broody. The staff was super sweet and helped me get in and out efficiently so I could make it to the game. Would absolutely recommend, would absolutely come back, and would absolutely bring friends here.

We sat down at a table and then someone came by and told us we had to walk up to the counter to order drinks and they said then they would be by to check on us and take our orders for other drinks. Weird. We had some cocktails in here and I would say these were my least favorite of the day and it was also pretty loud in here. Maybe I am just too old as it seemed to be a younger crowd in here. We did walk up to the counter both times, no one checked on us. This was our least favorite spot on our tour of Louisville. I doubt we return here.

The bartenders have that amazing charm of a casual place. They can chat, they can be sassy when needed, but they are efficient always. I am obsessed with their fish and chips, but recently I got a steak and salad. The steak itself was fine, a little bit better than the average pub steak, but the sauce on top? So flavorful, garlicky, and easily soaked into the meat. This place and their sauces, I'm telling you! They are awesome at it. The salad was so fresh and smothered in yummy toppings. The blue cheese was nice and tart. Combined with my steak? Ugh, I was so happy. And of course, as always, I loved my bartender. Plus, the weather is nice and they have plenty of outdoor seating.

Seemed like the restaurant and the surrounding Old Louisville neighborhood were fairly quiet since U of L is on winter break. We were seated immediately and drink and food orders were taken table-side. There is a fairly large ground level dining area with a long bar, as well as an upstairs dining area and patio area out front. Seating was comfortable, noise level mild during our visit midafternoon, and service was great. Food was very good and we each ordered various items: French dip sandwich, hamburger, crab cake sandwich, and turkey burger. I enjoyed my as-is menu item of a dressed Terrell's turkey burger with a bit of spicy seasoning, pickles, Russian dressing, etc., and it was juicy and seasoned just right. It was accompanied by a standard side of fries, which were served with the skin on (a personal fave), and very tasty. This is my third visit this year and each time trying a different menu item. Every experience has been enjoyable and looking forward to future ones. Free street parking is available on the cross streets located next to the business.
