A must do whenever you visit western Kentucky. Â Not a dive bar, not a swanky bar, but just a classy bar that also happens to be affordable.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff (including cute ladies), open-air feel, historic ambiance, great blend of blue- and white-collar and young and Baby Boomers, good drinks, and parking in downtown Owensboro is seldom a challenge. Â I really hope this bar will really take off once the riverfront redevelopment project is complete.
This bar serve as a bright glimmer of hope and success for the future of downtown Owensboro.
HELL YES!!! FINALLY a 5 star find!!! Thank you GLE owner for opening up a classy drinking location!! Everything about this place is amazing. The decor is awesome; old mixed with new. David Garibaldi art on the walls, Elvis movies playing on the big screen with couch and chair style seating and a beautiful wood bar.
The drink menu is extensive with dozens of brews, including my favorite Dogfish, and multiple specialty drink choices in the martini and bourbon field. The mixologist has obviously worked hard on the menu which I'm grateful for, however they were missing out on the gin options. And I'm still on the eternal hunt for a place that serves Moscow Mules and a Dark and Stormy.
If you're looking for food this probably isn't your place. They do have a small hors d'oeuvres menu for snacking but that's about it.
When in Owensboro, stop by. You'll be glad you did!
Great beer, and martini selection. Â The staff is very knowledgeable about each and every drink they have. Â The atmosphere is perfect no smoking, not very loud, and a croud thats looking for fun not trouble. Â I take people here whenever they visit me, and they have all loved it also.
