The House Lounge

Best Bar in Louisville. HANDS DOWN!!!

Friendly and cozy

Perfect example of how to acquire a historical neighborhood gay bar and completely ruin it, destroy its interior, and change its operating hours (late night till 4am)

Me and my boyfriend were visiting from Michigan and stopped in. The bartender was so nice and friendly! I enjoyed the conversation and all the Louisville recommendations. Will definitely come back when I’m in town again.

One of the warmest and lovely experiences I've ever had while out at a bar. These guys are great, I'd love to come back, and I hope one day I will.

I absolutely love this lounge! Me and a few of my homegirls have visited this spot a few times, and it never disappoints. They have a jukebox—which I love—because it lets me vibe to the music I actually want to hear while enjoying a casual drink. The bartender is amazing, super friendly, and always makes great drinks that are worth every penny. Overall, it’s just a good experience every time. I’ll definitely keep coming back whenever I get the chance, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cool, laid-back spot to relax and have a drink.

Food isn't served there but I brought some in from the venue across the street and everyone enjoyed. Sunday offers karaoke 🎤 5-9pm. Good times

It's small ..quaint... almost like a neighborhood bar...the drinks are good so stop in and have a drink

The house drinks were the worst as well as the bartender. No liquor in the drinks. They are pre- mixed.. Ask to have them mix your drinks with top shelf. The shows are fantastic and the bar is really cute. But as a bar the drinks are the worst.

I used to be a customer at this bar when it was called teddy bears I was a loyal customer I spend a lot of money but then I had two phones stolen there but everyone's got a app from Google it's called find my phone it doesn't matter if your phone's on or off it will still track your phone and it was definitely at that bar I told everyone about it and they all denied it so they lied and they also overcharged my credit card twice but my bank got my money back this is when it was teddy bears I heard that the bar changed and a new owner took it over so I went in there on the 1st I was at St James art festival and I found out they decorated and change the name to the house lounge but all the same thieving people were still working there and here we go again my phone got stolen I tracked it there with this app called find your phone it's a security app I went there 3 days and talked to everybody in the neighborhood the bartender everybody so I went there and talked to the new owner if he's a new owner and told him everything but he already knew they all did and nothing has changed except for the name and the decorations and now they put couches in there so apparently they probably got bed bugs but anyway my phone's there and they all deny it and the app doesn't lie but they do and if the owner don't know about it he does now cuz I told him and they keep denying it but you can't deny with Google in their security and it tracks your phone and it and it shows a circle around the business that your phone's at and they all know it's there and they don't care that's sad and it's there so shame on you teddy bears and shame on you the house lounge you can't trust this bar at all or the people believe me I know and they can't even replace my phone and when I've been such a good customer and a great temper and I'm very respectable and I think everyone needs to know
