    Some of the kindest staff in all of Louisville. As an Irishman born and reared I felt very at home in a cozy snug pub vibe, with wooden furnishings and a dart board in the corner. The food was excellent, and a lot lighter than I thought it would be. Definitely not as greasy as you'd expect from typical pub grub. Highly recommend the spice bag and wish I could have extended my trip and tried the vindaloo! Plenty of variety in the menu, with frequent specials too. Come for the libations and food, stay for the atmosphere - you will feel right at home!

    We were fans of Pints and Union when it was in IN and are so thrilled it's on our side if the river now! This is a perfect spot for them, it's so warm and cozy inside. Our food and drinks were wonderful abd the service was great. I didn't get a chance to see what the upstairs looked like so we will definitely be back!

    As soon as you open the doors to Pints and Union you realize, this isn't your regular local bar. Even if I'd never been to an English pub, I'd imagine this would be the closest I'd get to an authentic one. Packed with charm, a mixture of furnishings , original flooring, and interesting wall decor, I felt this is where you'd go to have a nice cold point and wait for all of this to blow over. Now, to get to what you're probably looking for, the food. Let's establish that as the menu says, this is a curry house, if curry isn't your speed, there are plenty of options. Our table enjoyed the Scotch Eggs, fish and chips, hummus and burgers. Everything was excited nicely. Fish was crispy and of large portion, the scotch eggs were flavorful with a nice "schmear" of a mustard sauce that was tart but not overpowering. My girls loved the burgers. I hope to try their stews at some point. The only glitch we had in service and it wasn't even a glitch, was that we had to ask for the ketchup and our server more than made up for that. If that's a problem, I'll take it. With any opening, grace should be given to allow for things to settle in. I look forward to many nights looking out onto the streets of Bardstown Rd from a cozy corner of the bar.

    Fullers ESB!

    So I have enjoyed Pints & Union since they were in the original location. I was excited when heard they were coming to Bardstown Rd. There is so much to love about this place. For me, the stand out is the ambiance. The new location is very cozy and reminds me of a pubs that I sat in when I was in Ireland. I really enjoy the food and most of all I get to enjoy my favorite beer there. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to many more visits.

    Beef Stew with two Harp Lagers and a Fullers ESB. Perfect on a cold night!

    I was a fan of Pints&Union in their old location, but I am thrilled to have them in Louisville now! We were able to finally go for dinner and were greeted by a friendly staff and warm environment. We have been looking for that "pub" atmosphere and they have nailed it! The beers were great, and the food was amazing. The Chicken Spice Bag may be my favorite thing there now! My husband got the spicy schnitzel sando and my daughter got chicken vindaloo that was a little spicy but she loved every bit. I got the special beef stew and it was so good I barely needed the bread. We can't wait to make it back!

    Huge fans of Pints and Union being in our neighborhood! We have been needing a cozy, welcoming place with yummy food and drinks for the Highlands and they are it! Walkable, great menu selection, friendly staff and everything we've tried has been delicious! Definitely recommend. We plan to be regulars!

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.

    There's just something about Against the Grain that takes me back to my first years in Louisville…read more It embodies that weird, wonderful Louisville spirit. 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.

    Well I'd classify this place as a dive bar in the sense of the word. It's definitely not 4 star…read morenoted and maybe not the best exclusive signage and overall 4 star appeal; but it a diamond in the rough, persa. This place is quaint, nice location (on a corner ) decent seating, not a big outdoor dining area, the bar is long and has the memories of the old day saloon. Now the food; terribly good! Menu isn't extensive but good items and variety that will satisfy anyone's appetite. It was Father's Day but as soon as it opened they were quickly filled with patrons and people kept coming; even waiting to get in. The fries in duck fat were awesome. Since so many baskets of fries like this for a long time. The smoked wings are great, meaty and savory. I had the pork belly tacos; my only disappointment was you only get 2 per order. The fine combination of ingredients were splendid and the pork belly so tender. My wife had the bbq pork sandwich on pretzel bun. Very good tasting and this was with no bbq sauce on it. If you're in the area, do yourself a a favor and stop in. I can't wait to go back ( as we live in southern Indiana) so might be a bit but definitely want to try a few other items.

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.
