What is your favorite thing to do in Louisville? My number one Louisvillian thing to do is explore the local Food & Beverage industry! Hands down, we have the best restaurant and bar scene. Our community is fortunate to have some of the best places to eat in the country right in our backyard.聽 There are many options, no matter what type of atmosphere you prefer or what food/drink you like. I鈥檝e been lucky to get to know some of our incredible local mixologists and chefs. You could be here for a month and still not go everywhere you want.
