    I may be biased because I'm a chiefs fan but this place rocks. The owner is cool and friendly and are the regulars. I will be back to try the food and I really enjoyed the vibe!

    My new favorite spot where I will be taking everyone. Stopped by with a group of friends after a late lunch near Findlay Market. Uncle Leos is a cozy spot that has all the character of a local dive bar, but makes the best dirty martinis I've ever had. They also offer a $3 "Moose" shot that changes daily. Bartenders are friendly, space is great, drinks are plentiful. Check it out when you have a chance !

    Re-opened as Uncle Leo's and it's such a blast! Came for their opening last night and the place is so beautiful - warm pink light and vintage pieces covering the bar and walls. Beautiful bar with a limited selection for now but I'm sure it will grow. The bartenders currently offer 6 classic cocktails but can make anything you like. Think of it as an upscale dive bar. Extremely fun place to get a drink.

    An incredibly dope bar owned by fabulous people. Whether it's a Saturday night getting after it with your pals or a chill Sunday with a friend, Uncle Leo's is the place to be. Wonderful staff, delicious drinks, awesome decor, great vibe and amazing owners. Surgeon General's Warning: The spiked cider is dangerously delicious

    Could not have been happier with the service and the personality of the proprietor. We had the best bean and pork soup and a lot of cool well prepared drinks! Try his Bloody Mary with house made mix (the horseradish makes it!)

    Since stopping in for the first time two weeks ago, I have been to Uncle Leo's 4 times What a cozy spot that is a perfect escape from the cold. Well balanced cocktails, delicious warm apple cider (can add bourbon or rum!), beer and topo chico seltzers, shots of the day. What more could you ask for? I feel like I'm either in a ski lodge or my hipster Uncle's basement bar, and I never want to leave!

    Bartender complained about my group coming into the bar and then added an extra $20 tip to our friends tab because they did not tip enough.

    Busy bar with exemplary service.

    See all

    Came here for the Pitchmas and loved it! The staff is incredibly friendly and they are kid…read morefriendly. I had a member of the staff offer to help carry the stroller up the stairs and someone came up to me to tell me there were changing tables upstairs. The drinks were tasty but it was the atmosphere for me! So many photo ops with cute backgrounds! The pitch is right across from TQL and would be a perfect place to go before or after a game, or to watch any sporting event really! There is an entire wall of TVs.

    Visited The Pitch to catch up with old friends before heading back to Louisville. Located right…read moredown the street from Music Hall, street parking can be a challenge. Thankfully, it was a Sunday so I was able to grab a spot nearby. Being winter, I didn't linger outside but it looked like they have a fairly extensive outdoor area. Once inside, it has a large bar surrounded by huge tvs playing football (on this day). We sat at a tall table with barstools in the center of the room. Bar staff were very knowledgeable and very friendly. Since I was driving, I only wanted a half pint of beer which wasn't a problem. They do have bar snacks which my friends had before I arrived. They said it was pretty standard fried goodies. The Pitch is a sports lover's paradise. Loads of beer and liquor options and TVs aplenty. Given this, it's very loud with different stations playing and folks cheering/ yelling. Don't expect to have any conversation except during commercials. I didn't frequent sports bars, but everyone was friendly and having a good time which made it fun.
